Overview: When the four of us decided to collaborate to write this book on pneumatic conveying, there were two aspects which were of some concern. Firstly, how could four people, who liveon four different continents, write a book on a fairly complex subject with such wide lines of communications? Secondly, there was the problem that two of the authors are chemical engineers.It has been noted that the majority of chemical engineers who work in the field of pneumatic conveying research have spent most of their time considering flow in vertical pipes. As such, there was some concern that the book

Overview: This book has been written with general practitioners primarily in view, describing common paediatric conditions that present in the outpatient clinics and those that require admission to hospital. The book is neither a textbook of paediatrics nor a handbook but is aimed to provide guidelines for the more commonplace conditions. Some aspects therefore, have been dealt with in detail, where felt relevant, while others are omitted on grounds of probable rare encounter. It is hoped that this volume will provide the family practitioner with an insight in the paediatrician‘s approach to m

Overview: The striking increase in average life expectancy during the twentieth century rates as one of the major events of our time. We are in the midst ofa social revolution-one rooted not in a new ideology, but in our changing population pat­ terns. For the first time in human history, infants in fortu­ nate nations like ours can expect to live well into their seventies and beyond.

Circa zwei Prozent der weiblichen Wahlberechtigten nennen ein Parteibuch ihr eigen. Wenige dieser Frauen werden parteipolitisch aktiv und nur vereinzelte kandidieren für (kommunale) Mandate. Entgegen der üblichen Suche nach den Gründen für die Unterrepräsentanz von Frauen ist in dieser Studie ihr Engagement in Parteien und Parlamenten von
