Overview: Covers the evolution of public diplomacy, its application to different policy areas or regions, and its use of different tools and methods.Fills a considerable gap in the research area - there are no Russian public diplomacy attracts growing attention in the current global climate of tension and competition. However, it is often not understood or is misunderstood. Although some articles and book chapters exist, there are almost no books on Russian public diplomacy neither in Russian, nor in English. This edited collection is an in-depth and broad analysis of Russian public diplomacy

Overview: Contains fourteen original contributions from the 5th Euroconference on Rock Physics and Geomechanics.Mechanical properties and fluid transport in rocks are intimately linked as deformation of a solid rock matrix immediately affects the pore space and permeability. The coupling of fluid circulation and deformation processes in crustal rocks results in significant complexity of the mechanical and fluid transport behavior. This often poses severe technical and economic problems for reservoir and geotechnical engineering projects involved in oil and gas production, CO.2. sequestration,

Overview: Builds a bridge in the understanding between researchers and manufacturers in the field of recombinant enzymes.Provides a thorough overview to assist the reader‘s understanding of the inter-related to.This edited work presents studies that clarify the basics of producing recombinant enzymes that finally lead to commercialization. It enables researchers to see what is crucial to the commercialization process, from examining the cloning method, using analytical techniques such as calculating the total protein content and enzyme activity, through considering upstream and downstream proc

Overview: Integrates original interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary evidence-based research conducted in Asia.Provides up-to-date references for research in the burgeoning field of the digital humanities.PresThis book examines new forms of representation that have changed our perception and interpretation of the humanities in an Asian, and digital, context. In analyzing written and visual texts, such as the use of digital technology and animation in different works of art originating from Asia, the authors demonstrate how literature, history, and culture are being redefined in spatialized re

Overview: Introduces the reader to reaction-diffusion systems beyond the classical Brownian diffusion process.Derives the physically and mathematically correct basic phenomenological equations by examining the .This book is an introduction to the dynamics of reaction-diffusion systems, with a focus on fronts and stationary spatial patterns. Emphasis is on systems that are non-standard in the sense that either the transport is not simply classical diffusion (Brownian motion) or the system is not homogeneous. A important feature is the derivation of the basic phenomenological equations from the

Overview: Provides evidence for new approaches towards business sustainability.Includes an integrated analysis of different relevant aspects in CSR.Presents latest case studies, reports on best practices and neThis book explores the current state of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) from an international perspective, the goal being to share ideas and visions for a sustainable future and to provide useful guidelines for academics, practitioners and policymakers in the context of the 2030 “Agenda for Sustainable Development” released by the United Nations. Research on CSR has evolved conside

Overview: Mechanisms of resistance to plant viruses are diverse, and probably involve different types of recognition events. Often, a cascade of changes affecting broader aspects of defence and metabolism is switched on progressively after the initial recognition event. Virulence, i.e. resistence-breaking behaviour of the virus, involves a failure or alteration of recognition or subsequent signalling. Consequences of these recognition events are the ways in which the pathogenic effects on the host are exerted: formation of visible symptoms and control of plant growth. This volume offers a comp

Overview: Despite all recent advances, the most important progress in neuroradiol­ ogy has been in our knowledge of the anatomy of the nervous system. DANDY‘S injection of ventricles and cisterns with air, SICARD‘S studies of the epidural and subarachoid space with lipiodol, MONIZ‘S work on cerebral arteries and veins, and, more recently, DJINDJIAN‘S and DI CHIRO‘S investiga­ tions of spinal arteries, have modified, refined and expanded current knowl­ edge of anatomy of the central nervous system. As described by LINDGREN, "the neuroradiologist dissects the region of interest with x-rays like

Overview: Polymerie materials have been replacing other conventional materials like metals, glass and wood in a number of applications. The use of various types of fillers incorporated into the polymer has become quite common as a means of reducing cost and to impart certain desirable mechanieal, thermal, electrieal and magnetic properties to the polymers. Oue to the energy crisis and high priees of petrochemieals, there has been a greater demand to use more and more fillers to cheapen the polymerie materials while maintaining and/or improving their properties. The advantages that filled polym

Drawing on a host of countries from both regions, the contributions illustrate how encounters increasingly transcend fixed territorial categories at local, national and regional levels.

Overview: International concern in scientific, industrial, and governmental communi­ ties over traces of xenobiotics in foods and in both abiotic and biotic envi­ ronments has justified the present triumvirate of specialized publications in this field: comprehensive reviews, rapidly published research papers and progress reports, and archival documentations. These three international publications are integrated and scheduled to provide the coherency essential for nonduplicative and current progress in a field as dynamic and complex as environmental contamination and toxicology. This series is
