        L’Ascenseur d’Einstein

        by Félix Dothan

        L’Ascenseur d’Einstein  Les Savants qui ont Changé la Face du Monde - par Félix Dothan Le Pr Félix Dothan parle dams son livre de la vie et l’œuvre de grands savants qui ont réussi à déchiffrer les secrets de la nature et sur des inventions qui ont changé les conditions de vie de l’humanité. Les savants dont il s’agit étaient des hommes et des femmes de chair et de sang, très différents les uns des autres. Parmi eux, (presque) des saints comme Albert Einstein et Lise Meitner, aux côtés d’autres savants venus pratiquement d’un autre monde comme Srinivasa Ramanujan. Il y eut d’éminents chercheurs qui manquèrent d’intégrité intellectuelle comme Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz ou ceux qui provoquent des sentiments à la fois d’admiration et de répulsion, par exemple Fritz Haber. Ou, par exemple, Archimède – un des fondateurs des mathématiques et l’inventeur d’armes perfectionnées; Franklin – homme d’affaires et pionnier de la théorie de l’électricité, diplomate, écrivain et homme d’état; Davy – chimiste brillant et actif; et ainsi de suite jusqu’au célèbre astrophysicien Chandrasekhar, un des hommes de science qui découvrirent de nombreux faits sur l’univers durant la dernière décennie. Parmi les biographies de savants, sont insérées de courtes anecdotes en bordure de la science –à la fois intéressantes et amusantes, mais aussi avec une moralité intellectuelle. Félix Dothan est un professeur émérite de physique à l’Université Hébraïque de Jérusalem. Né en Yougoslavie, il a fait ses études au Technion de Haïfa et a un doctorat de l’Université Hébraïque. Le domaine de sa recherche est la physique des gaz chargés électriquement (les «plasmas») et les technologies des hautes tensions. L’auteur était également chercheur invité au Centre Européen de Recherche Nucléaire (CERN) à Genève, et professeur invité à l’Université de Californie et à l’Université de Yale. Le Pr Dothan a reçu en 2001 le Prix du Chef d’Etat Major de l’armée israélienne pour l’œuvre de sa vie dans le domaine technologique (particulièrement pour l’établissement du projet «Talpioth» pour l’encouragement des soldats intellectuellement doués).

C'est avec plaisir que nous vous ferons parvenir, une documentation supplémentaire contenant la table des matièreset une séléction de chapitres traduits en français.

        by Siemen van Berkum, Natalija Bogdanov

        Following Serbia's acceptance as a candidate for EU membership, it's agriculture and rural issues will receive major attention as agriculture is an important activity in Serbia, especially in the low-income rural areas. This raises questions such as: what will be the main challenges of EU membership for Serbia? What will EU membership imply for the structure and performance of the agri-food supply chain? How should Serbia address the adjustment process to comply with EU rules and face economic market forces best? This book explores the consequences of preparing for EU accession for Serbia's agricultural policies and its agri-food supply chain. The book presents a comprehensive description of Serbia's agricultural and food sectors, agricultural policies, trade, environmental, animal and plant health issues, and also addresses budgetary consequences of EU membership for both Serbia and the EU.

        Sustainable Poverty Reduction in Less Favoured Areas

        by Edited by Ruerd Ruben, John Pender, Arie Kuyvenhoven

        Less-favoured areas with limited agricultural potential or difficult access conditions, support 40 percent of the world's rural population suffering from chronic poverty. While agricultural innovations and rural development programs have begun to be implemented within developing countries, they do not address the specific obstacles faced by this large population. Instead, a targeted approach is needed to identify different resource management strategies for particular types of households and communities as well as creating balanced investments aimed at sustainable intensification of rural livelihoods. Such efforts have been the focus of the research program on Regional Food Security Policies for Natural Resource Management and Sustainable Economies (RESPONSE). Through the study of less-favoured areas in Africa, Latin America, and South and East Asia, development pathways allowing for the careful adjustment of resource use strategies at the field, farm-household and village level are explored.

        Biochemistry and Clinical Chemistry

        by Dr. Bernd Sorg and Prof. Dr. Diana Imhof

        Biochemistry and clinical chemistry have long been an established part of pharmaceutical education. A comprehensive knowledge of the molecular processes in the human body is needed for a detailed understanding of disease pictures and of drug action at the molecular level. These subjects are of supreme relevance for pharmaceutical practice – without the methods of biochemistry and molecular biology, the development of new active substances is inconceivable. However, to date the established reference works have covered a much too broad range of topics, go into excessive detail and are not geared to the study of pharmacy. This textbook finally fills this gap in a hitherto unique way. Thanks to the concise learning content, it is tailored to the needs of pharmacy students. The authors therefore concentrate on the material required for the registration examination and focus on topics of relevance to drugs and treatment. They summarise the biochemical principles and use selected examples to explain the connections between them. Numerous diagrams, pictures and info boxes provide structure to the subject matter, facilitate learning and make reading enjoyable.

        The family tree detective

        Tracing your ancestors in England and Wales

        by Colin Rogers

        The long-awaited fourth edition of this best-selling manual continues to offer up-to-date guidance both to newcomers and to the more experienced, on how to make best use of the labyrinth of genealogical sources in England and Wales. It takes into account recent, and even some future, changes to the civil registration system, and incorporates many of the vast sources newly available on the internet. There is also a substantial bibliography for those who discover that their ancestors migrated from other countries. New appendices provide research into underregistration of birth and death, and hitherto unpublished details from the 1915 and 1939 National Registers. The family tree detective remains an indispensible source of information on how to locate births, marriages and deaths, and alternative strategies if those searches fail. Dr Colin D. Rogers is a Fellow of the Society of Genealogists, a member of AGRA (the Association of Genealogists and Researchers in Archives), and was for thirty years the Hon. General Editor of the Lancashire Parish Register Society. He runs a consultancy helping banks and solicitors to identify and locate beneficiaries. ;

        Ireland under austerity

        Neoliberal crisis, neoliberal solutions

        by Edited by Colin Coulter and Angela Nagle

        Once held up as a 'poster child' for untrammeled capitalist globalisation, the Irish Republic has more recently come to represent a cautionary tale for those tempted to tread the same neoliberal path. The crash in the world economy had especially grave repercussions for Ireland, and a series of austerity measures has seen the country endure what some consider the most substantial 'adjustment' ever experienced in a developed society during peacetime. In this collection of essays, a range of academics, economists and political commentators delineate the reactionary course that Ireland has followed since the ignominious demise of the Celtic Tiger. They argue that the forces of neoliberalism have employed the economic crisis they caused to advance policies that are in their own narrow interests, and that the host of regressive measures imposed since the onset of global recession has fundamentally restructured Irish society. The book provides a critical account of a society that has more often than most mapped out the pernicious cycle of boom and bust that remains an essential hallmark of contemporary capitalism.

        The Practice of Pharmacy

        Textbook for pharmacy interns Handbook for the pharmacy

        by Dr. Michael Sax, founded by Dr. Herbert Gebler and Dr. Gerd Kindl

        After pharmacy studies have ended, the fascinating world of the pharmacy awaits – simultaneously varied and challenging. This is no problem with this well-established standard work to hand! The 7th edition, with a new editor and new structure, goes through the various stages of pharmacy operation. Beginning with the social mandate to supply medicines and then considering the organisational and economic orientation of a pharmacy, one delves ever deeper into its inner workings. In every area, the appropriate specific information can be found about pharmaceutical law and practice – whether this concerns the back office, over-the-counter medicines, dispensary and dispensing, or the supply of care homes, or preparation of cytotoxic drugs. In addition to the important topic “Dispensing of drugs and medical devices on prescription”, particular attention is paid to the principal activity in the pharmacy – giving advice on self-medication. The contents are based on the regulations for registration of pharmacists and the guidelines of the Federal Chamber of Pharmacists for the practical training of pharmacy interns in the pharmacy. The Practice of Pharmacy safely navigates the user through the practical training year and is the ideal preparation for the 3rd State Examination! Returnees, pharmacies that provide training and pharmacists of many years’ experience, will also benefit from this textbook and reference work.

        Tourism Management in Warm-water Island Destinations

        by Michelle McLeod, Robertico R Croes, David Airey, Sheree-Ann Adams, Donna Chambers, Anne P. Crick, Robertico R Croes, Frederic Dimanche, Rachel Dodds, Brigitte Joubert, Michelle McLeod, Jorge Ridderstaat, Manuel Rivera, Michael Sadowski, Neelu Seetaram, Kelly J. Semrad, Noel Scott

        Warm-water islands are a cohesive group of islands distinguished by their geography and remoteness, history as former colonial territories, and dependence on external stakeholders for their economic and social development. Warm-water island destinations also have a year-round tourism industry. These island tourism destinations are facing unprecedented adjustment challenges in the wake of increasing globalization and susceptibility to external shocks, and are in search of appropriate policy responses to that globalization. It is critical for small islands to understand how these challenges affect tourism performance and how they impact their residents. Tourism Management in Warm-water Island Destinations unearths the critical aspects that contribute to tourism development and growth in islands. Particular emphasis is placed on destinations such as the Caribbean, with lessons learned that are applicable to other island tourism contexts in the Mediterranean, Indian Ocean and the Pacific. · Presents emerging research themes and methodology; · Provides insight into factors that result in successful and unsuccessful cases; · Features a focus on Cuba and its reintroduction to the tourism landscape. This book provides a platform for emerging systemic perspectives of the various aspects of island tourism, with the view that strategies for the management and development of tourism in island environments can be improved and will be of interest to those studying and researching within destination management.
