Описание: Addressing hotly contested issues and many more, Property in Question interrogates the very concept of property and what is happening to it in the contemporary world, in case studies ranging from Romania to Kazakhstan, Africa to North America.
Описание: This book describes the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of building design, environmental engineering and sustainability as presented by leading international researchers, engineers, architects and urban planners at the 3rd International Sustainable Buildings Symposium (ISBS), held in Dubai, UAE from 15 to 17 March 2017. It covers highly diverse topics, including smart cities, sustainable building and construction design, sustainable urban planning, infrastructure development, structural resilience under natural hazards, water and waste management, energy efficiency, climate change impacts, life cycle assessment, environmental policies, and strengthening and rehabilitation of structures. The contributions amply demonstrate that sustainable building design is key to protecting and preserving natural resources, economic growth, cultural heritage and public health. The contributions were selected by means of a rigorous peer-review process and highlight many exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.

Описание: The chapters in this book were selected as the best presentations from the 2011 and 2012 annual meetings of the Biochemical Technology division of the American Chemical Society. A panel of industrial and academic members helped select the content of this volume, along with nominations from individual session chairs. The Biochemical Technology (BIOT) division brings together multiple disciplines, including biotechnology, biochemistry and microbiology. The division has always sought to provide a balanced representation of current research in industry and academia. The chapters in this volume are a reflection of this. This volume brings together cutting-edge research in the areas of upstream and downstream process development, biofuels and biosynthesis. With an emphasis on current challenges facing the bioprocess community, this book contains innovative research by both academics and members of industry. A number of case studies from the biopharmaceutical industry are presented, including practical examples of methodologies for enhanced process development. In addition, the application of new and emerging technologies in the fields of biotechnology and bioprocessing are discussed. This symposium book was intended to bring the best of the annual BIOT meetings to a greater audience.

Описание:
Empires of Vision brings together pieces by some of the most influential scholars working at the intersection of visual culture studies and the history of European imperialism. The essays and excerpts focus on the paintings, maps, geographical surveys, postcards, photographs, and other media that comprise the visual milieu of colonization, struggles for decolonization, and the lingering effects of empire. Taken together, they demonstrate that an appreciation of the role of visual experience is necessary for understanding the functioning of hegemonic imperial power and the ways that the colonized subjects spoke, and looked, back at their imperial rulers. Empires of Vision also makes a vital point about the complexity of image culture in the modern world: We must comprehend how regimes of visuality emerged globally, not only in the metropole but also in relation to the putative margins of a world that increasingly came to question the very distinction between center and periphery.
