Henry S. Richardson, "Moral Entanglements: The Ancillary-Care Obligations of Medical Researchers"
English | ISBN: 0195388933 | 2012 | 272 pages | PDF | 1128 KB
The philosopher Henry Richardson's short book is a defense of a position on a neglected topic in medical research ethics. Clinical research ethics has been a longstanding area of study, dating back to the aftermath of the Nazi death-camp doctors and the Tuskegee syphilis study. Most ethical regulations and institutions (such as Institutiional Review Boards) have developed in response to those past abuses, including the stress on obtaining informed consent from the subject. Richardson points out that that these ethical regulations do not address one of the key dilemmas faced by medical researchers - whether or not they have obligations towards subjects who need care not directly related to the purpose of the study, termed "ancillary care obligations." Does a researcher testing an HIV vaccine in Africa have an obligation to provide anti-retrovirals to those who become HIV positive during the trial? Should a researcher studying a volunteer's brain scan, who sees a possible

Gonzalo Rodriguez-Pereyra, "Leibniz: Discourse on Metaphysics"
English | 2020 | pages: 199 | ISBN: 0198829043 | PDF | 1,0 mb
The Discourse on Metaphysics is one of Leibniz's fundamental works. Written around January 1686, it is the most accomplished systematic expression of Leibniz's philosophy in the 1680s, the period in which Leibniz's philosophy reached maturity. Leibniz's goal in the Discourse is to give a metaphysics for Christianity; that is, to provide the answers that he believes Christians should give to the basic metaphysical questions. Why does the world exist? What is the world like? What kinds of things exist? And what is the place of human beings in the world? To this purpose Leibniz discusses some of the most traditional topics of metaphysics, such as the nature of God, the purpose of God in creating the world, the nature of substance, the possibility of miracles, the nature of our knowledge, free will, and the justice behind salvation and damnation. This volume provides a new translation of the Discourse, complete with a critical introduction and a comprehensive philosophical

Ewa Dabrowska, Dagmar Divjak, "Handbook of Cognitive Linguistics"
English | 2015 | pages: 725 | ISBN: 3110291843 | PDF | 5,6 mb
Cognitive Linguistics is an approach to language study based on the assumptions that our linguistic abilities are firmly rooted in our cognitive abilities, that meaning is essentially conceptualization, and that grammar is shaped by usage. The Handbook of Cognitive Linguistics provides state-of-the-art overviews of the numerous subfields of cognitive linguistics written by leading international experts which will be useful for established researchers and novices alike. It is an interdisciplinary project with contributions from linguists, psycholinguists, psychologists, and computer scientists which will emphasise the most recent developments in the field, in particular, the shift towards more empirically-based research. In this way, it will, we hope, help to shape the field, encouraging methodologically more rigorous research which incorporates insights from all the cognitive sciences. Editor Ewa Dabrowska was awarded the Alexander von Humboldt Professorship 2018.

Grain Boundaries and Crystalline Plasticity By
2011 | 348 Pages | ISBN: 1848213271 | PDF | 32 MB
This book explores the fundamental role of grain boundaries in the plasticity of crystalline materials, providing a multi-scale approach to plasticity to facilitate understanding. It starts with the atomic description of a grain boundary, moves on to the elemental interaction processes between dislocations and grain boundaries, and finally shows how the microscopic phenomena influence the macroscopic behaviors and constitutive laws. Drawing on topics from physical, chemical, and mechanical disciplines, this work also explains properties of deformation at low and high temperature, creep, fatigue, and rupture.Content: Chapter 1 Grain Boundary Structures and Defects (pages 1-46): Chapter 2 Elementary Grain Boundary Deformation Mechanisms (pages 47-107): Chapter 3 Grain Boundaries in Cold Deformation (pages 109-163): Chapter 4 Creep and High Temperature Plasticity (pages 165-215): Chapter 5 Intergranular Fatigue (pages 217-280): Chapter 6 Intergranular Segregation and Crystalline Material Fracture (pages 281-325): Chapter 1 Bicrystallography and Topological Characterization of Interfacial Defects (pages 327-332): Chapter 2 Appendices of Chapter 3 (pages 333-339):

Glucose Syrups: Technology and Applications By Peter Hull(auth.)
2010 | 375 Pages | ISBN: 1405175567 | PDF | 6 MB
Glucose syrups (commonly known as corn syrups in North America) are derived from starch sources such as maize, wheat and potatoes. Offering alternative functional properties to sugar as well as economic benefits, glucose syrups are extremely versatile sweeteners, and are widely used in food manufacturing and other industries. They are a key ingredient in confectionery products, beer, soft drinks, sports drinks, jams, sauces and ice creams, as well as in pharmaceuticals and industrial fermentations. This book brings together all the relevant information on the manufacture and use of glucose syrups. Drawing on forty years' experience in the international glucose industry, the author provides a valuable reference for all those involved in the processing and buying of these syrups, and for scientists involved in the manufacture of a full range of food (and some non-food) products in which the syrups are ingredients. The emphasis is on practical information - recipes are included where relevant in the applications chapters, and appendices offer commonly-used calculations and useful data. Food technologists can use the book to make choices about the most suitable glucose syrup to use in a particular application, and also to adapt recipes in order to replace sugar (sucrose) or other ingredients. A glossary of terms reflecting the international terminology of the industry completes the book. Content: Chapter 1 History of Glucose Syrups (pages 1-7): Chapter 2 Fructose Containing Syrups (pages 9-17): Chapter 3 Glucose Syrup Manufacture (pages 19-44): Chapter 4 Explanation of Glucose Syrup Specifications (pages 45-60): Chapter 5 Application Properties of Glucose Syrups (pages 61-75): Chapter 6 Syrup Applications: an Overview (pages 77-100): Chapter 7 Trehalose (pages 101-106): Chapter 8 Sugar Alcohols: an Overview (pages 107-117): Chapter 9 Glucose Syrups in Baking and Biscuit Products (pages 119-132): Chapter 10 Glucose Syrups in Brewing (pages 133-148): Chapter 11 Glucose Syrups in Confectionery (pages 149-173): Chapter 12 Glucose Syrups in Fermentations: an Overview (pages 175-184): Chapter 13 Glucose Syrups in Ice Creams and Similar Products (pages 185-202): Chapter 14 Glucose Syrups in Jams (pages 203-219): Chapter 15 Glucose Syrups in Tomato Products and other Types of Dressings and Sauces (pages 221-226): Chapter 16 Glucose Syrups in Soft Drinks (pages 227-238): Chapter 17 Glucose Syrups in Health and Sports Drinks (pages 239-249): Chapter 18 Carbohydrate Metabolism and Caloric Values (pages 251-260): Chapter 19 Caramel - the Colouring (pages 261-263):

Geological history of Britain and Ireland By Nigel H. Woodcock, Rob Strachan (editors)
2012 | 454 Pages | ISBN: 1405193824 | PDF | 25 MB
Britain and Ireland have a remarkably varied geology for so small a fragment of continental crust, with a fine rock record back through three billion years of geological time. This history would have been interesting enough if it had been played out on relatively stable continental crust. However, Britain and Ireland have developed at a tectonic crossroads, on crust once traversed by subduction zones and volcanic arcs, continental rifts and mountain belts. The resulting complexity is instructive, fascinating and perplexing.Geological History of Britain and Ireland tells the region's story at a level accessible to undergraduate geologists, as well as to postgraduates, professionals or informed amateurs. This second edition is fully revised and updated, reflecting our continually developing knowledge of the region's geology. Full coverage is again given to the rich Precambrian and Early Palaeozoic history, as well as to later events more relevant to hydrocarbon exploration. The book is an essential starting point for more detailed studies of the regional geology.Additional resources for this book can be found at http://www.wiley.com/go/woodcock/geologicalhistory
