Livestock raisers and healers everywhere have traditional ways of classifying, diagnosing, preventing and treating common animal diseases. Many of these "ethnoveterinary" practices offer viable alternatives or complements to conventional, Western-style veterinary medicine - especially where the latter is unavailable or inappropriate.This rich bibliography contains annotations of 1240 publications that deal with sociocultural, politico-economic, environmental and biomedical aspects of community animal healthcare. Entries span 118 countries of Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific. Examples of ordinary people's diverse knowledge, skills, beliefs and practices are recorded for some 200 health problems of 25 livestock species. The species discussed range from 'exotics' like reindeer, camelids, elephant and yak, through more familiar farm and pet animals, to micro-livestock like fish and bees. Reference is made to hundreds of plant species or genera, to inorganic items or compounds, and innumerable foodstuffs and household items employed as "materia medica" in treatments that run the gamut of medicinal, surgical, physical/mechanical and supernatural. In addition, stockraisers' many astute and often environmentally friendly health-related herding, housing, husbandry and breeding practices are documented.The volume prioritizes twentieth century literature, with the bulk of publications dating from 1989 to 1999. It is designed to provide researchers, development professionals and policy makers working in agriculture, education, national development and human medicine with contemporary data, ideas and approaches for the practical evaluation, application and extension of community animal healthcare knowledge and resources to solving immediate development problems. At a broader level, the bibliography suggests the many potential benefits to people everywhere of systematically studying and building upon sometimes ancient - and sometimes brand new - local/indigenous knowledge.

iHorizon-Enabled Energy Management for Electrified Vehicles proposes a realistic solution that assumes only scarce information is available prior to the start of a journey and that limited computational capability can be allocated for energy management. This type of framework exploits the available resources and closely emulates optimal results that are generated with an offline global optimal algorithm. In addition, the authors consider the present and future of the automotive industry and the move towards increasing levels of automation. Driver vehicle-infrastructure is integrated to address the high level of interdependence of hybrid powertrains and to comply with connected vehicle infrastructure. This book targets upper-division undergraduate students and graduate students interested in control applied to the automotive sector, including electrified powertrains, ADAS features, and vehicle automation.

Marina Martinez Mateo diskutiert klassische Theorien politischer Reprasentation von Hobbes bis Mill anhand folgender These: Reprasentation stellt eine fundamentale, aber paradoxe Figur der Begrundung staatlicher Souveranitat dar. Das 'Volk', das reprasentiert wird, muss zunachst formiert und zugleich als vorgangig vorausgesetzt und abgebildet werden. In dieser Paradoxie liegt allerdings auch die politische Produktivitat der Reprasentation. Durch ihre krisenhafte Struktur wird Reprasentation zu einem Instrument der Kritik: sowohl am Staat, den sie begrundet, als auch am Volk, das sie reprasentiert. So mundet die Untersuchung in der Verteidigung einer Politik der Reprasentation gegen institutionalisierte Formen politischer Reprasentation.

Jose Isaacson (Buenos Aires, 1922) pertenece a un grupo estelar de poetas argentinos -Borges, Olga Orozco, Roberto Juarroz y Alejandra Pizarnik, entre otros- que, en conjunto, marcan un hito en la literatura hispana del siglo XX. Dada la riqueza tematica, el giro hacia la metafisica que se evidencia invariablemente en sus escritos y la profundidad de su vision humanistica, cabe suponer en la obra de Isaacson un alcance internacional. El texto dialoga con voces filosoficas que perfilan un encuentro asentado en el misterio del tiempo. Aristoteles, Spinoza, Kafka, Kant, Buber y Wittgenstein, entre otros, sin descontar la riqueza que proviene de las evocaciones biblicas, palpitan en un texto sencillo y vibrante. Una extraordinaria erudicion acompana la ensayistica de Isaacson y el vuelo poetico de su lirica realza el calibre intelectual de una obra fuera de lo corriente. A la profundidad filosofica y a la intensa produccion literaria hay que anadir una propuesta humanistica, una actitud vital que posibilita un rescate de la persona. Bajo esta perspectiva la obra de Isaacson busca plantear un sentido a la praxis, aspirando a ahondar en la expresion de nuestro tiempo.
