Honey is a supersaturated solution of sugar made by bees. Honeybees
collect a liquid secretion from flowers, called nectar, and take
this back to their hives. It is an appreciated natural gift to
humanity derived entirely from honeybees. Honey is the by-product
of nectar collected by bees from the flowers, with some digestive
enzymes produced by the honeybees themselves. Honey: A Miraculous
Product of Nature summarizes the current status of honey, it's uses
and related aspects. This illustrated volume describes use of honey
in traditional medicines, i.e. Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani by
acting as a preservative and nourishing agent. Also, other
properties like digestibility, palatability, deliciousness,
refreshing, thirst quencher, stomachic, anti-obtrusive,
expectorant, anti-oxidative, anti-tussive and blood purifier are
explained in beautiful manner. The role of honey in improving
eyesight, strengthens gums and teeth and it's use in jaundice,
spleen enlargement, sore throat, chest diseases, sexual debility,
renal and cystic calculi, intestinal worms, heart diseases and
leprosy is very well described. The compiled knowledge from range
of bee scientists, Honey: A Miraculous Product of Nature aims to
provide broad knowledge on honey to the researchers, apiculturists
and students to continue their work on honey and honeybees.

ROBOTIC PROCESS AUTOMATION Presenting the latest technologies and
practices in this ever-changing field, this groundbreaking new
volume covers the theoretical challenges and practical solutions
for using robotics across a variety of industries, encompassing
many disciplines, including mathematics, computer science,
electrical engineering, information technology, mechatronics,
electronics, bioengineering, and command and software engineering.
Robotics is the study of creating devices that can take the place
of people and mimic their behaviors. Mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering, information engineering, mechatronics,
electronics, bioengineering, computer engineering, control
engineering, software engineering, mathematics, and other subjects
are all included in robotics. Robots can be employed in a variety
of scenarios and for a variety of objectives, but many are now
being used in hazardous areas (such as radioactive material
inspection, bomb detection, and deactivation), manufacturing
operations, or in conditions where humans are unable to live (e.g.
in space, underwater, in high heat, and clean up and containment of
hazardous materials and radiation). Walking, lifting, speaking,
cognition, and any other human activity are all attempted by
robots. Many of today’s robots are influenced by nature, making
bio-inspired robotics a growing area. Defusing explosives, seeking
survivors in unstable ruins, and investigating mines and shipwrecks
are just a few of the activities that robots are designed to
undertake. This groundbreaking new volume presents a Robotic
Process Automation (RPA) software technique that makes it simple to
create, deploy, and manage software robots that mimic human
movements while dealing with digital systems and software. Software
robots can interpret what’s on a screen, type the correct
keystrokes, traverse systems, locate and extract data, and do a
wide variety of predetermined operations, much like people.
Software robots can do it quicker and more reliably than humans,
without having to stand up and stretch or take a coffee break.
This books studies syntax of NPIs and their interaction with
sentential negatives in Hindi. It outlines the clause structure of
Hindi and locates the syntactic position of sentential negatives as
well as constituent negatives within the structure. It is argued
that sentential negative in Hindi negation marker heads its own
maximal projection, NegP, which is immediately dominated by TP. In
addition to locating the position of negation markers in the clause
structure, it outlines the distribution of negative polarity items
(NPIs) in Hindi and the structural constraints on their licensing
by sentential negative. The book argues that an NPI in Hindi is
licensed overtly in the course of derivation by a c-commanding
negative marker. The bulk of the evidence presented in this book
argues against previous theoretical accounts that claim that NPI
licensing involves covert syntactic operations such as LF movement
or reconstruction. With respect to the classification of NPIs ,
this book also shows the existence of two different types of NPIs
in Hindi; namely, strong NPIs and weak NPIs. Strong NPIs require a
clause mate c-commanding negative licensor, whereas weak NPIs are
quantifiers and are similar to free choice 'any' in English that
are interpreted as NPIs in the presence of a c-commanding negative
licensor.
Polymers have emerged as one of the most innovative classes of
materials in modern materials science, leading to new applications
in medicine and pharmacy. This book offers a convincing and
understandable approach to polymer biomaterial devices being used
in various areas related to biomedical and pharmaceutical fields.
The polymer materials finding application as biomaterials are
discussed and described in detail pertaining to the areas of
artificial implants, orthopedics, ocular devices, dental implants,
drug delivery systems, burns and wounds.
