This book traces the evolution of civilian nuclear power in the United States between 1946 and 1974, describing and analyzing the commercialization of nuclear energy and surveying pivotal events in the dissension that has recently accompanied its large-scale application. Professor Del Sesto views these events in terms of three themes: federal regulation of advanced technology, the gradual entrance of more diverse interest groups into the political arena, and the problems created by the conflicting claims of experts. He concludes that the lessons of the nuclear debate are most important for their implications for the expanding use of scientific and theoretical knowledge in democratic social orders. More broadly, he writes of the confrontation between knowledge and power that lies at the heart of the growing number of technological controversies that mark late twentieth century industrialized societies throughout the world.

With hard-hitting truths, memorable quotes, and powerful perspective shifts, Dean Del Sesto helps you connect (or reconnect) at a deeper level to the power, potential, and purpose you already have so that you can live your life with greater freedom, resilience, and wisdom. Perfect for business professionals on the go, the busy student, the active parent, and anyone who needs a boost of spiritual strength at any time, this book promises to help you live your life from an internal resolve rather than in reaction to your external circumstances.

Get ready to go from the basics of using Ansible to becoming proficient at implementing configuration management in your projects. This book begins with the basics of Ansible, providing you with details on how to install and configure your environment while working with different Ansible modules from the command line. Next, it introduces you to working with Ansible tasks and organizing configuration code into playbooks. You'll then learn how to extend playbooks further, using roles and templates within the configuration code. Author Vincent Sesto then extends your knowledge further by covering custom Ansible modules using Python and Linux shell scripts and demonstrating how you can start to keep your secret values encrypted and secure using Ansible Vault. You'll also develop Ansible roles with the use of Ansible Galaxy to reuse existing roles that others have created. This updated edition reflects changes added in the latest version of Ansible (2.9). It also includes an expanded chapter on testing Ansible using Molecule and managing large server environments using applications like Ansible Tower. What Will You Learn Understand what Ansible is and how to install and run your first basic command line commands Expand your configuration management using Ansible playbooks, roles and templates Customize your code further using Ansible Vault and third-party roles in Ansible Galaxy. Work with Ansible in managing cloud infrastructure, specifically in Amazon Web Services Troubleshoot your Ansible code and use frameworks like Molecule and Testinfra to help test your code changes Manage large server environments using real-world examples and extend your configurations using an application like Ansible Tower Who This Book Is For Systems Engineers, Developers, DevOps Engineers and Software Administrators.

Die koronare Herzkrankheit gehort zu den fuhrenden Krankheits- und Todesursachen in der industrialisierten Welt. Ihre Diagnosestellung sollte moglichst fruhzeitig in der Praxis des niedergelassenen Arztes erfolgen. Er sollte rasch, richtig und prospektiv hinsichtlich der zu erhaltenden Lebensqualitat Entscheidungen treffen. Die bekannten "Sesto-Kompendien" uber Arrhythmien haben ihren Wert fur den Hausarzt durch ihre Beliebtheit und eine entsprechend grosse Nachfrage bewiesen. Sie stellen jenen Bruckenschlag zwischen Klinik und Praxis dar, der durch das Studium fachkompetenter Literatur allein nicht vollzogen werden kann. Das neueste Buch des Autors befasst sich mit der koronaren Herzkrankheit. Das Zusammenspiel von Lernen und Rekapitulieren des Erlernten anhand von gezielten praxisbezogenen Fragen und Antworten erhoht den "Wirkungsgrad" der Erinnerung und ermoglicht die praktikable Anwendung. Analyse und Didaktik machen dieses Kompendium nicht nur zu einer hilfreichen Erganzung im Studium, sondern auch zu einem nutzlichen Handbuch fur den kardiologisch tatigen Arzt.

In den letzten Jahren werden in steigendem Masse Diskussionen daruber gefuhrt, ob die Therapie mit Antiarrhythmika nicht in die Hande von Spezialisten mit entsprechend ausgerusteten Praxen gehort. Als Hauptgrund wird genannt, dass niedergelas sene Allgemeinpraktiker uber kein 24-h-Langzeit-EKG-Gerat verfugen und dementsprechend sowohl ihre diagnostischen Moglichkeiten als auch eine Kontrolle der Arrhythmietherapie erheblich eingeschrankt sind. Hier stellt sich die Frage, welche Moglichkeiten die Arzte, auch in der Klinik hatten, als es noch keine Langzeitelektrokardiographie, kein Trommel- oder Pok ket-EKG gab? Der Patient ist heute genau wie fruher primar auf den Praktiker, d. h. auf seinen Hausarzt angewiesen, und dieser muss handeln, denn zum einen ist die Zahl spezialisierter Kliniken zu gering, um laufend die grosse Zahl behandlungsbe durftiger Patienten aufzunehmen, zum anderen sind die Ein weisungen in die Klinik durch die Krankenkassen stark limi tiert. Daruber hinaus benotigen in der Tat nur bestimmte Patienten eine invasive Untersuchung in der Klinik. Diese Patienten zu erkennen, ist auch eine wichtige Aufgabe des niedergelassenen Arztes. Zur Behandlung stehen dem niedergelassenen Arzt Medika mente mit einem breitgefacherten Indikationsspektrum, zuver lassiger Wirksamkeit und vertretbar geringer Quote von Nebenwirkungen zur Verfugung. Dazu kommt noch, dass nur bei repetitiven ventrikularen Tachykardien und Extrasystolen salven eine 100 % Beseitigung der Arrhythmie erforderlich ist, bei anderen ventrikularen Arrhythmieformen reicht eine Unterdruckung der ventrikularen Extrasystolen von 50-60 % und von Couplets um 70-80 % aus."

Das Herz als Motor des Lebens! Viele Menschen leiden an ernsten Erkrankungen des Her- zens, viele haben Herzbeschwerden, der Herzinfarkt und seine Folgen zahlen zu den haufigsten Todesursachen in un- serem Land. Die Zahl der an Herzkrankheiten Verstorbenen ist doppelt so gross wie die der am Krebs Gestorbenen. Die sogenannten "unklaren" Herzbeschwerden werden von den einen bagatellisiert, den anderen floessen sie Angst- gefUhle ein. Man geht nicht zum Arzt, um nicht eventuell ein ungunstiges Ergebnis der Untersuchung erfahren zu mussen, dessen Konsequenzen auf den ganzen Lebensbereich in Beruf, Familie und Freizeit einwirken koennen. All diese Menschen will das Taschenbuch ansprechen, es will sachliche Informationen liefern, Krankheitsursachen und Zusammenhange aufzeigen, Krankheitsbilder verdeut- lichen und auf die moeglichen Behandlungsmethoden hin- weisen. Die komplizierten Sachverhalte auch und gerade fUr den Laien einfach zu beschreiben und verstandlich zu machen, war das Bemuhen des Autors, der selbst Arzt und Herzspezia- list ist, aber auch Betroffener. Manche Begriffe aus der medizinischen Fachsprache wa- ren ohne Abstriche an einer korrekten Verwendung im Text nicht zu ubersetzen. Sie wurden teils durch in Klammer ange- 7 hangte Erklarungen im fortlaufenden Text erlautert, teils mit Zahlen gekennzeichnet und in einem Glossar am Ende des Buches verstandlich gemacht. Den Betroffenen mag das Buch eine Hilfe fur ihr Leben mit der Herzerkrankung sein. Den noch nicht oder noch nicht ernsthaft Betroffenen mag es das Wissen und Verstandnis um die Zusammenhange vermitteln, das ihnen helfen kann, weitergehende Folgen zu vermeiden.

This book touches on my past, present and my future. I am not a fortune teller but there is a way we can determine our destiny.

This book contains both poetry and my personal thoughts based on Scripture. My prayer is for the reader to read the Bible and discover the reasons for life, living and what happens when one dies.

My Impressions of the Living Word of God are the result of writing messages of salvation for a number of years. As I do not pay much attention to personal opinion, I have been extremely careful to not add or subtract any of God's Word, nor to manipulate any of its content. My heart is heavy for the lost and my compassion is expressed in conveying His Living Word in simple and understandable terms. Enjoy.
