Vijay Kumar Thakur, "Recycled Polymers: Chemistry and Processing, Volume 1"
English | 2015 | pages: 388 | ISBN: 1909030961 | PDF | 6,7 mb
Polymers have been one of the most widely used materials in our daily life due to properties including low production costs, light weight, hygiene, durability and design adaptability. However, the increasing consumption of different kinds of polymer-based materials in various fields results in a huge amount of waste material. Once the polymers have fulfilled the function for which they were manufactured, they are disposed of in landfills in large amounts each year, which is incompatible with current environmental goals. The disposal of polymer-based plastics, such as incineration and landfill, results in environmental pollution and land occupation.

University Press Biographies, "Ragnar Lothbrok: The Extraordinary Viking"
English | ISBN: 1976910471 | 2018 | 65 pages | EPUB | 119 KB
Ragnar Lothbrok: The Extraordinary Viking From the misty depths of the Early Middle Ages comes the story of a mighty Viking warrior and king named Ragnar Lothbrok. The rich oral tradition of Norse legend, written down hundreds of years after the events happened, sifted the story of Ragnar's exploits through time and poetry to create for Ragnar a lasting image of bravery in the face of the unknown. The dramatic tale of Ragnar brings up interesting questions. For example, was Ragnar a real person? If so, have the facts about him been exaggerated to the point that they no longer have much basis in reality? And, if the story has been reshaped by its storytellers, what does this say about what the people wanted to hear? Also, how can Ragnar be called a hero when his most notable feat was invading and plundering Paris? As you read Ragnar's story, you'll find the answers to questions you may not imagine right now, such as: Why was Ragnar called Lothbrok, the Old Norse word for Shaggy-Breeches? Through his legend, you see a man who had three strong wives and many vengeful sons. What kind of father and husband could this man have been? Ragnar was certainly no peacemaker. He was tall and powerfully-built, but what about his moral character? Modern people might see this "Scourge of England and France" as a brute and a warmonger, and rightly so - not exactly in keeping with modern mores. Yet, even modern people can appreciate what he did for the world. We can thank Ragnar's kind for creating trade routes throughout Scandinavia, Britain, Europe, and even into Russia. In expanding his empire, he aided in the settlement of the regions he conquered. Learning about Ragnar's life, times and character can give you a new way to view the world. The basic struggle of Ragnar's life was between good and evil, but these two concepts are not as clear-cut as you might think. What Medieval Norsemen saw as good, you might see as wicked, aggressive and based on self-interest alone. And, what they saw as evil, you might see as simply the natural way of the life on this planet. As you read this book, you can enjoy learning about a character that is larger than life and fascinating in a way only legends can be. After you finish reading, we suspect you'll want to know more about Ragnar Lothbrok and delve into the poetry that tells his story so beautifully.

Phil Bennett, "Phil Bennett: The Autobiography"
English | 2003 | ISBN: 0007162553 | EPUB | pages: 326 | 6.4 mb
The former Wales and Lions rugby captain has travelled the world watching rugby and talking about the game since his retirement in 1978. This book tackles a host of issues dominating the sport in the modern era. When Prince Charles watched Llanelli play the All Blacks on their last meeting in 1997, he claimed he had the best seat in the house - the one next to Phil Bennett. Such is the esteem in which the ex Wales and Lions captain is held, it's no wonder his frank opinions and hard-hitting appraisal of the sport he lives and breathes continue to have as much impact now as they did when he was the world's premier fly-half in his heyday. In his book, Bennett is scathing of the Welsh rugby administrators, poor standards of coaching and the failure to embrace new ideas. On a global level he has strong views on professional rugby and the rise of the European game.

People Stuff: Beyond Personality Problems: An Advanced Handbook for Leadership by ZoГ« Routh
English | August 1st, 2020 | ISBN: 0994411995 | 243 pages | True EPUB | 1.78 MB
Do people drive you nuts? Are silos and turf wars challenging the culture? Wondering if it ever gets any easier? The toughest - and best - part of leadership is the people. But let's face it, people dynamics can be tricky. Solutions are within. People Stuff is your map to the complex territory of human behaviour and leadership strategies. People Stuff goes well beyond frustrating 'personality clashes' to uncover the dynamics of human interactions at work. You'll clarify how you see yourself, your people and your organisation to avoid ineffective superficial solutions to complex problems. Perspective is power. In order to create positive and lasting change, we need to dive below the surface and see the patterns and systems that are creating the issues in the first place.

Fiorenzo Bastianelli, Peter van Nieuwenhuizen, "Path Integrals and Anomalies in Curved Space"
English | 2006 | pages: 398 | ISBN: 0521847613, 0521120500 | PDF | 1,9 mb
Path integrals provide a powerful method for describing quantum phenomena. This book introduces the quantum mechanics of particles moving in curved space by employing path integrals and then using them to compute anomalies in quantum field theories. These anomalies provide enormous constraints in the search for physical theories such as those of elementary particles, quantum gravity and string theories. An advanced text for researchers and graduate students of quantum field theory and string theory, the first part is also a stand-alone introduction to path integrals in quantum mechanics.

Tae-Hwan Kwak, "North Korea and Security Cooperation in Northeast Asia "
English | ISBN: 1472417860 | 2014 | 270 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Relations between the two Koreas continue to be hostile, volatile and unpredictable with North Korea's nuclear issue remaining as untamed as ever. As such, there is a growing urgency for security cooperation in Northeast Asia to be given immediate attention. The key players in the region - the US, China, Japan and Russia - are keenly aware of the security threat of an armed clash between North and South Korea and are committed to denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. This book explores the domestic factors of the two Koreas and the four major powers that influence their security policies towards North Korea and Northeast Asia. This well thought out and consistently analysed volume has huge potential to frame the conversation on Northeast Asian relations in the coming years.

Linda Tamura, "Nisei Soldiers Break Their Silence: Coming Home to Hood River "
English | ISBN: 0295992093 | 2012 | 360 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Nisei Soldiers Break Their Silence is a compelling story of courage, community, endurance, and reparation. It shares the experiences of Japanese Americans (Nisei) who served in the U.S. Army during World War II, fighting on the front lines in Italy and France, serving as linguists in the South Pacific, and working as cooks and medics. The soldiers were from Hood River, Oregon, where their families were landowners and fruit growers. Town leaders, including veterans' groups, attempted to prevent their return after the war and stripped their names from the local war memorial. All of the soldiers were American citizens, but their parents were Japanese immigrants and had been imprisoned in camps as a consequence of Executive Order 9066. The racist homecoming that the Hood River Japanese American soldiers received was decried across the nation.
