Illich's theories on the effectiveness of cars, air travel, and
energy showed that industrial progress actually hampers the speed
and effectiveness we have as people who were born capable of
walking to our desired destinations. Roads, airports, stations,
traffic jams, all take away the benefits of using complicated
engineered methods of travel, and make our actual travel times
longer.

Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have greatly impacted human society
as well as natural environments over the past decade, in
consequence of their production on a massive scale to support the
emerging market for nanotechnology. Among these ENMs, titanium
dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles have been extensively employed in the
development of novel solutions for photocatalytic applications in
environmental remediation. This book discusses the effects of TiO2
in natural environments. Some other topics discussed include indoor
environment control with functional mortars; the production,
properties and applications of TiO2; dye-sensitized TiO2 for gas
detection; TiO2 induced photocatalytic reduction for organic
synthesis; and the effects of TiO2 nanoparticles on the
inflammatory process.
The first guidebook ever written for the lost Silver Trail leading
from Carichic, Mexico to the historic silver mines at the bottom of
Copper Canyon. In 2005, a group of international guides
re-established this almost forgotten route through some of the most
remote backcountry in Mexico. This gps enhanced guide provides
detailed information needed to hike this incredible route.
The third edition of this book provides new material on sleep
disordered breathing, the newer methods of staging of lung cancer,
interstitial lung diseases and infections all of which have
developed in importance since the last edition of the book. The
traditional areas of respiratory medicine remain strongly
represented and the new edition contains many new radiological
illustrations. The book contains integrated self-test questions,
illustrations and detailed explanations. It is designed to educate
as well as give answers to problems. The cases appear in random
order and at varying levels of difficulty, just as patients present
in practice. The Colour Review will appeal to a wide readership,
ranging from senior medical students and post-registration trainees
in internal medicine, to pulmonologists in training and practice,
for examination revision and continuing education.
