In diesem Band findet sich eine Sammlung von Märtyrerakten aus dem antiken Persien. Als Märtyrerakte (lateinisch Acta Martyrum) wird ein Bericht über das Leiden und den Tod eines christlichen Märtyrers oder einer Gruppe von Märtyrern bezeichnet. Diese Berichte wurden schon früh gesammelt und in der kirchlichen Liturgie verwendet, wie der heilige Augustinus bezeugt. Daneben finden sich auch Erzählungen, die entweder auf der Grundlage einiger weniger realer Fakten geschrieben wurden, die in der volkstümlichen oder literarischen Überlieferung erhalten geblieben sind, oder aber reine Werke der Phantasie, die keinerlei Fakten enthalten. Da sie jedoch mit der Absicht geschrieben wurden, den Leser zu erbauen und nicht zu täuschen, muss eine besondere Klasse für hagiographische Fälschungen reserviert werden. In diese Kategorie gehören all jene Apostelgeschichten, Passionen, Lebensbeschreibungen, Legenden und Übersetzungen, die mit dem ausdrücklichen Ziel geschrieben wurden, die Geschichte zu verfälschen, wie zum Beispiel die Legenden und Übersetzungen, die den Namen eines Heiligen fälschlicherweise mit einer bestimmten Kirche oder Stadt verbinden.
European firms and climate change 2020/2021
The European Union's COVID-19 recovery plan could be the impetus businesses need to invest in climate measures and prepare for the transition to a net-zero carbon economy. Our newest climate report looks at how firms' view these twin challenges and their preparedness to meet them.Firms are more aware of the physical risks posed by climate change, but less aware of the risks caused by the transition to clean energy.Almost half of EU firms surveyed are investing in climate change measures, compared with roughly one-third of US firms.Uncertainty over regulation and taxation continues to hamper climate investments.To green its economy, Europe needs a comprehensive strategy that will provide businesses with the guidance they need to invest in climate preparedness and the energy transition.
Nanotechnology in Plant Growth Promotion and Protection
Discover the role of nanotechnology in promoting plant growth and protection through the management of microbial pathogens In Nanotechnology in Plant Growth Promotion and Protection, distinguished researcher and author Dr. Avinash P. Ingle delivers a rigorous and insightful collection of some of the latest developments in nanotechnology particularly related to plant growth promotion and protection. The book focuses broadly on the role played by nanotechnology in growth promotion of plants and their protection through the management of different microbial pathogens. You’ll learn about a wide variety of topics, including the role of nanomaterials in sustainable agriculture, how nano-fertilizers behave as soil feed, and the dual role of nanoparticles in plant growth promotion and phytopathogen management. You’ll also discover why nanotechnology has the potential to revolutionize the current agricultural landscape through the development of nano-based products, like plant growth promoters, nano-fertilizers, nano-pesticides, and nano-insecticides. Find out why nano-based products promise to be a cost-effective, economically viable, and eco-friendly approach to tackling some of the most intractable problems in agriculture today. You’ll also benefit from the inclusion of: A thorough introduction to the prospects and impacts of using nanotechnology to promote the growth of plants and control plant diseases An exploration of the effects of titanium dioxide nanomaterials on plant growth and the emerging applications of zinc-based nanoparticles in plant growth promotion Practical discussions of nano-fertilizer in enhancing the production potentials of crops and the potential applications of nanotechnology in plant nutrition and protection for sustainable agriculture A concise treatment of nanotechnology in seed science and soil feed Toxicological concerns of nanomaterials used in agriculture Perfect for undergraduate, graduate, and research students of nanotechnology, agriculture, plant science, plant physiology, and crops, Nanotechnology in Plant Growth Promotion and Protection will also earn a place in the libraries of professors and researchers in these areas, as well as regulators and policymakers.

Просто осязание
Еще Аристотель рассуждал о том, почему осязание может считаться самым разумным из чувств: ведь оно в наибольшей степени способствует сохранению живого существа, предохраняет его от гибели. Книга популярно рассказывает о коже как органе восприятия; о значимости осязания, о том, как работают его механизмы; об экспериментах по психологии тактильного восприятия, о тактильных формах деятельности и самовыражения. Почему наблюдение за ударом молотка по чужому пальцу не заставляет нас отдергивать руку, а когда рядом кто‑то чешется, мы тоже испытываем зуд? Как фактура предметов, которые мы трогаем, сказывается на наших решениях и поступках? Могут ли ощущения кожи подсознательно влиять на наши впечатления о людях и ситуациях?.. В формате PDF A4 сохранен издательский макет книги.
Computational Intelligence and Healthcare Informatics
AI techniques are being successfully used in the fields of health to increase the efficacy of therapies and avoid the risks of false diagnosis, therapeutic decision-making, and outcome prediction in many clinical cases, thanks to the rapid advancement of technology. The acquisition, analysis, and application of a vast amount of information required to solve complex problems is a challenge for modern health therapies. The 21 chapters in this integrate several aspects of computational intelligence like machine learning and deep learning from diversified perspectives. The purpose of the book is to endow to different communities with their innovative advances in theory, analytical approaches, numerical simulation, statistical analysis, modeling, advanced deployment, case studies, analytical results, computational structuring and significance progress in healthcare applications.
Magnetic Nanoparticles in Human Health and Medicine
Explores the application of magnetic nanoparticles in drug delivery, magnetic resonance imaging, and alternative cancer therapy Magnetic Nanoparticles in Human Health and Medicine addresses recent progress in improving diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and using non-invasive and non-toxic magnetic nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery. Focusing on cancer diagnosis and therapy, the book covers both fundamental principles and advanced theoretical and experimental research on the magnetic properties, biocompatibilization, biofunctionalization, and application of magnetic nanoparticles in nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine. Chapters written by a panel of international specialists in the field of magnetic nanoparticles and their applications in biomedicine cover magnetic hyperthermia (MHT), MRI contrast agents, biomedical imaging, modeling and simulation, nanobiotechnology, toxicity issues, and more. Readers are provided with accurate information on the use of magnetic nanoparticles in diagnosis, drug delivery, and therapeutics—featuring discussion of current problems, proposed solutions, and future research directions. Topics include magnetic nanoparticles with antioxidant activity, iron oxide nanoparticles in nanomedicine, superparamagnetic hyperthermia in clinical trials, and simulating the physics of magnetic particle heating for biomedical applications. This comprehensive volume: Covers both general research on magnetic nanoparticles in medicine and specific applications in cancer therapeutics Discusses the use of magnetic nanoparticles in alternative cancer therapy by magnetic and superparamagnetic hyperthermia Explores targeted medication delivery using magnetic nanoparticles as a future replacement of conventional techniques Reviews the use of MRI with magnetic nanoparticles to increase the diagnostic accuracy of medical imaging Magnetic Nanoparticles in Human Health and Medicine is a valuable resource for researchers in the fields of nanomagnetism, nanomaterials, magnetic nanoparticles, nanoengineering, biopharmaceuticals nanobiotechnologies, nanomedicine,and biopharmaceuticals, particularly those focused on cancer diagnosis and therapeutics.
