Nanotechnology continues to contribute to the progress of
innovations in the area of forensic science ranging from sensing,
DNA monitoring, and counterfeiting to fingerprinting. In recent
years, functional nanomaterials are widely applied in nanoscience
and forensic investigation. They can be used in future
interdisciplinary research by scientists, engineers, and
biotechnologists. Modeling and Simulation of Functional
Nanomaterials for Forensic Investigation focuses on multiple
applications related to forensics and provides information linked
with nanoparticles. This book provides nanotechnology results in
improving the sensitivity of established forensic techniques. It
further focuses on different fabrication and characterization
techniques of nanomaterials and relates their characteristics with
forensic applications. Covering topics such as explosive detection,
nano-forensic testing, and nano-trackers, this premier reference
source is a comprehensive resource for material engineers, chemical
engineers, nanotechnologists, biotechnologists, forensic
scientists, students and educators of higher education,
researchers, and academicians.

This book focuses on the fundamentals of blockchain technology
along with the means and methods of its integration with Internet
of Things (IoT). The book allows the reader to have a deeper
understanding of blockchain technology, IoT and various application
areas wherein both technologies can be implemented. The book serves
the purpose of providing knowledge about the fundamentals of
blockchain and IoT to a common reader along with allowing a
research scholar to identify some futuristic problem areas that
emerge from the convergence of both technologies. Furthermore, the
authors discuss relevant application areas such as smart city,
e-healthcare, smart travel, etc. throughout the course of the book.
The book also talks through a few case studies illustrating the
implementation and benefits of using blockchain and IoT. Provides a
comprehensive view of blockchain technology and its integration
with IoT; Facilitates in having a valuable understanding of various
application areas pertaining to blockchain and IoT; Assists the
reader in exploring new research areas wherein blockchain and IoT
can find their applicability based upon their list of benefits.
This book offers a unique perspective on September 11 and our world
after this tragic event, sharing lessons from an Asian religious
experience that can help heal a world troubled by religious
conflicts and deepening divisions, and promote a positive global
transformation. Existing literature regarding the events of
September 11 and our world afterward has focused mostly on the West
and the Middle East. Asian Perspectives on the World's Religions
after September 11 extends this discussion to include Asia-a
continent and culture far too important to be ignored in any
assessment of the global impact of this event. The book is
organized along the following themes, as they emerged
post-September 11th: religion and civilizational dialogue;
religion, conflict, and peace; religion and human rights; religion
and ethics; religion and the arts; religion, hermeneutics, and
literature; religion and gender; religion and ecology; and religion
and globalization. Individuals who are studying or teaching
political science, international relations, philosophy, ethics,
Asian studies, or religious studies will find the text invaluable,
while general readers will appreciate the largely unvoiced Asian
perspective on this topic.
This book is an essential resource for anyone who wants to
understand race in America, drawing on research from a variety of
fields to answer frequently asked questions regarding race
relations, systemic racism, and racial inequality. This work is
part of a series that uses evidence-based documentation to examine
the veracity of claims and beliefs about high-profile issues in
American culture and politics. This particular volume examines the
true state of race relations and racial inequality in the United
States, drawing on empirical research in the hard sciences and
social sciences to answer frequently asked questions regarding race
and inequality. The book refutes falsehoods, misunderstandings, and
exaggerations surrounding these topics and confirms the validity of
other assertions. Assembling this empirical research into one
accessible place allows readers to better understand the scholarly
evidence on such high-interest topics as white privilege, racial
bias in criminal justice, media bias, housing segregation,
educational inequality, disparities in employment, racial
stereotypes, and personal attitudes about race and ethnicity in
America. The authors draw from scholarly research in biology,
genetics, medicine, sociology, psychology, anthropology, and
economics (among many other fields) to answer these questions, and
in doing so they provide readers with the information to enter any
conversation about American race relations in the 21st century as
informed citizens. Addresses beliefs and claims regarding race and
ethnicity in America in an easy-to-navigate question-and-answer
format Draws from empirical research in a variety of scholarly
fields and presents those findings in a single, lay-friendly
location to aid understanding of complex issues Provides readers
with leads to conduct further research in extensive Further Reading
sections for each entry Examines claims made by individuals and
groups of all political backgrounds and ideologies
