Download or read book Nano Housing written by Suresh Haware and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think big, act small... Act now... Many of us think big but fail to micro plan. Others get stuck at micro-planning, missing the 'big picture' of what impacts us nationally and globally. Housing is a basic necessity of human beings across the globe, and not just in India. Affordable housing for the masses is a key challenge for governments and policy makers. In Nano Housing, Dr Suresh Haware brings out a detailed study and offers solutions for the housing needs of India and its states and cities. A path-breaking and time-tested concept, nano housing is the outcome of an in-depth practical research which has the potential to fulfill the dream of the common man-an affordable house at an affordable price. Further, the book addresses the impact of GST, RERA and demonetisation on real estate; analyses REIT, home finance and rental housing; and voices the concern of homeless people, unauthorised housing, redevelopment and many other aspects of housing. An innovative and revolutionary idea, Nano Housing is a must-read for all businessmen in general and professionals, economists, sociologists, officials and policy makers engaged in the housing industry in particular.

Download or read book Land and Housing Controversies in Hong Kong written by Betty Yung and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses land and housing controversies in Hong Kong, which offer a point of reference for the comparison and analysis of similar or contrasting cases overseas from the perspective of social values. It enhances readers’ understanding of the social values, philosophical and theoretical issues that underpin land and housing controversies, as well as their policy implications. The discussion in each chapter goes beyond mere substantive and contextual analysis, and is explicitly positioned and theorized within the broader context of social values, with a theoretical and philosophical framework for assessing the issue concerned. The book is interdisciplinary in nature, with each chapter integrating two or more disciplines to examine various controversial land and housing issues.
Download or read book Nanotechnology for a Sustainable World written by Thomas Faunce and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does humanity have a moral obligation to emphasise nanotechnology's role in addressing the critical public health and environmental problems of our age? This well crafted book explores this idea by analysing the prospects for a macroscience nanotechnology-for-environmental sustainability project in areas such as food, water and energy supply, medicine, healthcare, peace and security. Developing and applying an innovative science-based view of natural law underpinning a global social contract, it considers some of the key scientific and governance challenges such a global project may face. The book concludes that the moral culmination of nanotechnology is a Global Artificial Photosynthesis project. It argues that the symmetric patterns of energy creating photosynthesis, life and us are shaping not only the nanotechnological advances of artificial photosynthesis, but also the ethical and legal norms likely to best govern such scientific achievements to form a sustainable existence on this planet. Nanotechnology for a Sustainable World will appeal to many generations of scientists and policymakers working to improve our world in public health, environmental sustainability and renewable energy and nanotechnology. It will also be a valuable resource for similarly motivated students of chemistry, physics, biology, nanotechnology and photosynthesis, as well as environmental and energy ethics, law and policy.
Download or read book Nanovation written by Kevin Freiberg and published by Thomas Nelson Inc. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanovation is a story of how a little car is teaching the world to think big. One dreary, rainy morning in India, Ratan Naval Tata, the Chairman of the Tata Group, was driving to work, right behind a family of four. It wasn’t an unfamiliar sight, all four of them crammed onto a single scooter, trying to get to school and work. Then it happened—a busy intersection, a slick road, and down they went, scooter one direction, family members the other. Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt because the congested traffic had been moving so slowly. But it gave new impetus to an idea Tata had been working on: as the chairman of a car company, how could he get Indian families off scooters and into something safer that they could afford? Today we have the answer, and it’s called the Nano, the least expensive—and arguably most significant—car in the world. Nanovation is not only the story of one car; it represents the leading edge of a revolution in business thinking and design that will have a profound effect on everything that comes after it, not just in the automotive industry, not just in India, but in every industry around the world.

Download or read book Global Health Impacts of Nanotechnology Law written by Ilise L Feitshans and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-05-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small things add up: trillions of dollars of products applying nanotechnology have been marketed to consumers promising new medicines, strong packaging to protect goods from contamination, stronger eyelash mascara and long-lasting lipstick, construction materials for housing, cheaper energy, and new drugs to fight cancer. Nanotechnology applications to consumer products represent a huge slice of daily economic life, heralding a revolutionary age for science and technology. How can the benefits of nanotechnology be realized while protecting public health? Global Health Impacts of Nanotechnology Law: A Tool for Stakeholder Engagement fills a major void in legal, scientific policy discourse about nanotechnology for people who are curious about nanoscience, bioethics, and law. The pioneering, plain-language text of Dr. Ilise L. Feitshans, international health law scholar and former international civil servant, enables readers to move comfortably across disciplines and explore how nanotechnology can reshape both commerce and public health to improve daily life worldwide.
