Overview: Shi-xu critiques universalism in discourse studies in terms of the cultural consequences of its current white, western standpoint and advocates a culturally pluralist approach, a theory and research methodology from an innovative position between Eastern and Western cultures. Practical research strategies are illustrated by examples drawn from culturally wide ranging discourses. This is a book to interest any scholar or student of discourse looking outside their own intellectual tradition.978-0-230-57762-6978-0-230-50539-1

Overview: Explores indigenous sub-Saharan African agrarianism moral thought.Adds to the discussion on African agrarianism from an indigenous African philosophical perspectives on agriculture.Scrutinizes traditiThis book explores indigenous sub-Saharan African agrarian thought. Indigenous African agrarian philosophy is an uncharted and largely overlooked area of study in the burgeoning fields of African philosophy and philosophy of nature. The book shows that wherever human beings have lived, they have been preoccupied with exploring ways to ensure the sustainable management of limited resource

Overview: Introduces the application of AI in IoT and cyborgs.Explores the cybernetic organs and their interfaces.Explains the remote monitoring of cybernetic organsThis book introduces the concept of combining artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of things (IoT) with real human organs to form a cybernetic organism or cyborg. It is a concept of man–machine mixture which helps in restoring or enhancing the ability of a body part by integrating some technology or artificial component with that body part. These smart artificial organs act as a substitute for real organs having various capabi

Overview: On the occasion of its twenty-fifth anniversary, in 1985, the Netherlands Society for Grassland and Fodder Crops (NVWV) agreed to organize an International Symposium on a topic related to intensive grass and fodder production systems. The theme selected was "Animal manure on grassland and fodder crops: Fertilizer or waste?" This Symposium was organized under the auspices of the European Grassland Federation and held at the International Agricultural Centre in Wageningen from 31 August to 3 September 1987. The problems connected with the disposal of animal waste have received much att

Overview: Provides introduction to selected theoretical and experimental aspects of particular current interest in this rapidly developing field.Of interest to newcomers and established workers alikeThere have been many books published on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and related subjects since Dr. Cerd Binnig and Dr. Heinrich Rohrer invented STM in 1982 and AFM in 1986 at IBM Research Center in Zurich, Switzerland. These two techniques, STM and AFM, now form the core of what has come to be called the ‘scanning probe microscopy (SPM)‘ family. SPM is not jus

Overview: During the last two decades, considerable progress has been made in statistical time series analysis. The aim of this book is to present a survey of one of the most active areas in this field: the identification of autoregressive moving-average models, i.e., determining their orders. Readers are assumed to have already taken one course on time series analysis as might be offered in a graduate course, but otherwise this account is self-contained. The main topics covered include: Box-Jenkins‘ method, inverse autocorrelation functions, penalty function identification such as AIC, BIC te

Overview: This workshop was organized and presented by an international group of scholars interested in the advancement of automating instructional design. Although the principal leader for this effort was myself, each of the committee members devoted equally in time and effort in the total preparation and conducting of the workshop. Members of the organizing committee included Dr. Klaus Breuer from disce and the University ofPaderbom (Germany), Dr. Begofia Gros from the University of Barcelona, and Dr. Daniel Muraida and Dr. Michael Spector from the Armstrong Laboratory (USA). Dr. Gros partic

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Few clinical disciplines have been transformed so dramatically by advancements in science and technology as gastrointestinal surgery. To begin with, modern ph- macology has virtually eliminated some kinds of surgery altogether. If one were to take a peek at a typical operating room schedule in a busy hospital of the 1960s, gastrectomies of one kind or another would have constituted a large block of the major surgeries. The advent of effective H2-histamine receptor antagonists and, more + + recently, the H ,K -ATPase (proton pump) inhibitors led to a p

Overview: Anil K. Mandai, M.D., is one of the trailblazers in the use of the transmission electron microscope in the study of the urinary sediment. In this book, he reviews his extensive efforts to tie his vast clinical expe­ rience to his elegant basic research with the electron microscope. The pictures are comprehensive, and the clinical correlates are nicely outlined in tables and text. It may astonish some readers that a book for fellows and clinical nephrol­ ogists has been written on the use of the transmission electron microscope in the study of urine. Some may view this as a sophistica

Overview: Es gibt im Bereich der Softwaretechnik viele Werkzeuge, die den Programmentwicklungsprozeß unterstützen. Sie stellen die Korrektheit der Implementierung sicher, nicht aber ihre Effizienz. Die vorliegende Arbeit führt daher eine Methode ein, die es erlaubt, die Zeitkomplexität funktionaler Programme automatisch zu ermitteln. Die Grundidee dieser Methode besteht darin, ein funktionales Programm in ein System von Rekurrenzgleichungen zu übersetzen, dessen Lösung das Zeitverhalten des Programms angibt. Durch Einführung von bedingten Rekurrenzen und Rekurrenzfamilien ist es möglich, obere
