This collection of essays attempts to address the disparate
historical and critical ways religion informs the literature and
culture of nineteenth century England, showing how a representative
group of major Victorians negotiated its impact. The collection
attempts to present Victorian religious discourse not as monologic
but as dialogic, if not protean. It seeks to make available new
understandings of nineteenth-century British literature as well as
to elucidate the extent to which religious discourse is vested in
Victorian cultural thoughts and practice.
This book is the outcome of a Bioenergetics workshop held at
Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore in April 2018 to
honour Professor Bertil Andersson for his outstanding contributions
to scientific research and administration, particularly his very
successful 11 years a NTU as Provost (2007-2011) and President
(2011-2018). The main focus of the book is on the mechanisms of
photosynthetic oxygen production by water splitting and the reverse
respiratory reaction of oxygen reduction to water. Also discussed
is how these reactions can be used for the development of
artificial photosynthesis for the generation of sustainable solar
fuel. The various chapters are written by international experts
including Nobel Laureates Rudolph Marcus and John Walker. They
provide the very latest knowledge of how the flow of energy in
biology is driven by sunlight and efficiently utilized to power
life. This book is suitable for students and researchers who are
interested in molecular details of energy flow on our planet and
also concerned about sustainability of humankind.
This book contains the full set of RILEM Recommendations which have
been produced to enable engineers, specifiers and testing houses to
design and produce concrete which will not suffer damage arising
from alkali reactions in the concrete. There are five recommended
test methods for aggregates (designated AAR-1 to AAR-5), and an
overall recommendation which describes how these should be used to
enable a comprehensive aggregate assessment (AAR-0). Additionally,
there are two Recommended International Specifications for concrete
(AAR-7.1 & 7.2) and a Preliminary International Specification
for dams and other hydro structures (AAR-7.3), which describe how
the aggregate assessment can be combined with other measures in the
design of the concrete to produce a concrete with a minimised risk
of developing damage from alkali-aggregate reactions.
The latest edition of this pioneering text atlas incorporates all
the advances that have taken place in the field over the last
decade. Minimally invasive procedures are now established as the
method of choice for many applications in equine orthopaedic
surgery, not only as an aid to diagnosis, but also as an
alternative to conventional surgery. The text has been completely
revised and massively expanded to reflect the rapid growth of this
specialty, and covers many important new applications and
techniques. This latest edition also features new, full colour,
high resolution images throughout, including digital video. It
remains the most comprehensive reference available, yet still
retains the established text-atlas format, and continues to provide
readers with both authoritative comment and practical guidance on
all aspects of this important technique. Diagnostic images with
side-by-side radiographs and illustrations offer multiple points of
view and directional guidance on surgical procedures. Expert
authorship features helpful insights and expertise from the
worldwide leader and speaker on equine arthoscopy, Wayne
McIlwraith. Specially commissioned artwork clearly illustrates
local anatomy and key stages of surgical procedures. Coverage of
choice, use, and maintenance of equipment provides a basic
understanding of arthroscopic technique and reasoning behind
various practices. Content dedicated to diagnostic and surgical
arthroscopy of the horse provides authoritative, comprehensive
information on this specialized subject. NEW! Updated
high-definition images provide a crystal clear view of surgical
procedures from multiple views. NEW! Companion website features 48
high-resolution digital videos that link back to the textbook for a
vivid demonstration of surgical techniques. NEW! Expanded content
ensures you are up to date on the latest developments in the field
- particularly in the areas of tenoscopy, bursoscopy, and
arthroscopic methods for cartilage repair. NEW! Chapter on
postoperative management, adjunctive therapies, and rehabilitation
procedures keeps you abreast of best practices when it comes to
taking care of the horse post-operation.
