Overview: No one whose opinion deserves a moment‘s consideration can doubt that most of the great positive evils of the world are in themselves removable, and will, if human affairs continue to improve, be in the end reduced to narrow limits. J. S. Mill, Utilitarianism, II, 1863 Mill was not writing about herpesviruses, but had he known them as we do, he would have included them among the great positive evils of the world. They cause disease and premature death, and are very costly to our society. There is no loftier aim than to cure or prevent human infections with these viruses. The objectiv

Overview: This Pivot explores the cultural economy of comedy in the UK, looking specifically at the links between industry practices and structures and who produces comedy in the UK. The research is based on interviews with comedians in the East Midlands; significantly, this demographic has been historically under-researched in studies of precarity, where the East Midlands is typically overlooked in discussions of arts funding and access in favour of a more simplistic north/south divide narrative. Similarly, whilst there has been increased discussion of the precarity of the creative and cultur

Overview: This book is open access, which means that you have free and unlimited access.Offers a theory of foreign system adaptation backed by concrete and diverse practices.Explains Japanese experience with inThis open access book studies how foreign models of economic development can be effectively learned by and applied to today’s latecomer countries. Policy capacity and societal learning are increasingly stressed as pre-conditions for successful catch-up. However, how such learning should be initiated by individual societies with different features needs to be explained. The book answers t

Overview: Small businesses in virtually all industrialized countries findit increasingly difficult to obtain finance from institutionalsources. Banks have become more risk-averse; venture capital funds,previously of only marginal significance, are now often concentratingtheir investments on established companies; and management buyouts andbuyins and pressures to reduce government spending have resulted in areduction in public policy initiatives. In this context there is agrowing interest in the role of the informal venture capital market asan alternative source of risk finance for small busine

Overview: Describes and analyses STEM learning in Indigenous communities.Presents how technology is used for sharing worldviews of minoritized groups.Describes ways of teaching and learning based on indigenous This book explores ways in which systems of local knowledge, culture, language, and place are foundational for STEM learning in Indigenous communities. It is part of a two-volume set that addresses a growing recognition that interdisciplinary, cross-cultural and cross-hybrid learning is needed to foster scientific and cultural understandings and move STEM learning toward more just and su

Overview: Systematic information about inter-municipal cooperation in eight European countries.Reflection on the significance and future of inter-municipal cooperation.Over the past fifty years, local government in Europe has been confronted with escalating scales of production, population migration and market pressures. These developments have complicated its performance, challenged its domain and even threatened its existence. A popular coping strategy is inter-municipal cooperation, a phenomenon that, despite its ubiquity, has not been subject to systematic comparative research. ..This book

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2009, held in Düsseldorf, Germany in February 2009. The 21 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers address the whole spectrum of integrated formal methods, ranging from formal and semiformal modelling notations, semantics, verification, refinement, model transformations to type systems, logics, tools and case studies.978-3-642-00254-0978-3-642-00255-7Series ISSN 0302-9743 Series E

Overview: Highlights significant recent developments in auditory research achieved through the use of non-standard animal species.Showcases a diversity of experimental approaches in auditory research.The first The hearing organs of non-mammals, which show quite large and systematic differences to each other and to those of mammals, provide an invaluable basis for comparisons of structure and function. By taking advantage of the vast diversity of possible study organisms provided by the "library" that is biological diversity, it is possible to learn how complex functions are realized in the inn

Overview: Scholarly interest in ‘the Irish Gothic‘ has grown at a rapid pace in recent years, but the debate over exactly what constitutes this body of literature remains far from settled. This collection of essays explores the rich complexities of the literary gothic in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Ireland.978-1-349-47423-3978-1-137-36665-8

Overview: We wrote this book to introduce undergraduates to some interesting ideas in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra. Until recently, these topics involved a lot of abstract mathematics and were only taught in graduate school. But in the 1960‘s, Buchberger and Hironaka discovered new algorithms for manipulating systems of polynomial equations. Fueled by the development of computers fast enough to run these algorithms, the last two decades have seen a minor revolution in commutative algebra. The ability to compute efficiently with polynomial equations has made it possible to investi

Overview: Equity in education is a major policy concern everywhere. But there are significant differences among nations with respect to definitions and issues of equality and equity. While international comparison could help countries learn from each other, reliable tools for comparison are scarce. .In this book an interdisciplinary and international group of scholars makes a compelling case for better international equity indicators in education. A conceptual framework for a system of comparable indicators is proposed and a spectrum of findings and perspectives presented. This opens a dialogu

Overview: Provides an independent and complete summary of the latest data on ice ages.Explores theories and makes comparisons with the all the available data.Acts as a primary textbook on ice ages and a seconda.Ice ages represent perhaps the most dramatic example of extreme climate change on the Earth. Understanding how and why ice ages occur is of great importance in our wider understanding of the global climate system and how it might change. If one examines Greenland ice data for the past 100,000 years, it becomes very clear that the relatively warm period of the past 11,000 years stand out

Overview: New edition extensively revised and updated.Covers important topics such as the Hilbert Basis Theorem, the Nullstellensatz, invariant theory, projective geometry and dimension theory.Fourth edition in.This text covers topics in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra with a strong perspective toward practical and computational aspects. The first four chapters form the core of the book. A comprehensive chart in the Preface illustrates a variety of ways to proceed with the material once these chapters are covered. In addition to the fundamentals of algebraic geometry—the elimination

Overview: First book in this specialized area.Many original figures.Intraepithelial neoplasia (IEN) are some kind of preinvasive lesions. The definition and identification of intraepithelial neoplasia is exceedingly important for early diagnosis and prevention of malignancy. This book introduces for the first time the concept of intraepithelial neoplasia for the entire body in detail and the diagnostic applications of intraepithelial neoplasia in many organs and systems – including the respiratory and digestive systems, pancreas, bile duct, breast, prostate, urinary system, female genital syst

Overview: Extremely isolated communities offer ‘laboratory conditions‘ for examining the processes of language change and dialect formation. This book presents findings of the first-ever ethnographic fieldwork on the most remote island in the world with a permanent population, Tristan da Cunha. It documents the historical formation of a unique local dialect and investigates the sociolinguistic mechanisms that underlie dialect contact and new-dialect formation. It also uncovers the linguistic consequences of post-insularity - language change processes as a result of increasing contacts with oth
