The Origins of Inequality - Per Molander

The Origins of Inequality - Per Molander

This book presents a unified approach to the problem of inequality, combining results from a variety of research fields ¿ the human life cycle, group dynamics, networks, markets, and economic geography. Its main message is that inequality emerges as the natural result of mechanisms operating both in individual human development and in social interaction. It posits that inequality is not an anomalous deviation from a naturally egalitarian social structure; quite to the contrary, inequality is to..

Clean Ironmaking and Steelmaking Processes - Efficient Technologies for Greenhouse Emissions Abatement - Pasquale Cavaliere

Clean Ironmaking and Steelmaking Processes - Efficient Technologies for Greenhouse Emissions Abatement - Pasquale Cavaliere

¿This book describes the available technologies that can be employed to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse emissions in the steel- and ironmaking industries. Ironmaking and steelmaking are some of the largest emitters of carbon dioxide (over 2Gt per year) and have some of the highest energy demand (25 EJ per year) among all industries; to help mitigate this problem, the book examines how changes can be made in energy efficiency, including energy consumption optimization, online monitoring,..

Palliative Care for Chronic Cancer Patients in the Community

Palliative Care for Chronic Cancer Patients in the Community

The new global cancer data suggests that the global burden has risen to 18.1 million new cases per year and 9.6 million cancer deaths per year. A number of factors appear to be driving this increase, in particular, a growing and aging global population and an increase of exposure to cancer risk factors linked to social and economic development. For rapidly-growing economies, the data suggests a shift from poverty- or infection-related cancers to those associated with lifestyles more typical in industrialized..

Case Against 2 Per Cent Inflation - From Negative Interest Rates to a 21st Century Gold Standard - Brendan Brown

Case Against 2 Per Cent Inflation - From Negative Interest Rates to a 21st Century Gold Standard - Brendan Brown

This book analyses the controversial and critical issue of 2% inflation targeting, currently practised by central banks in the US, Japan and Europe. Where did the 2% target inflation originate, and for what reason? Do these reasons stand up to scrutiny?This book explores these key questions, contributing to the growing debate that the global 2% inflation standard prescribed by the central banks in the advanced economies globally is actually contributing to the economic malaise of these nations. It..

Computational Tapered and Cylinder Roller Bearings - Hung Nguyen-Schafer

Computational Tapered and Cylinder Roller Bearings - Hung Nguyen-Schafer

This monograph presents computational models that describe electro-mechanical characteristics of tapered and cylinder roller bearings in various industrial applications. Applying the Levenberg-Marquardt's algorithm to solving strongly nonlinear coupled equation systems, the computational models consisting of many circular slices per rolling element enable computations of the local Hertzian pressures at the elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contact area, the relating oil-film thickness in elastohydrodynamic..

Wireless Communications for Power Substations: RF Characterization and Modeling - Basile L. Agba

Wireless Communications for Power Substations: RF Characterization and Modeling - Basile L. Agba

This book consists of the identification, characterization, and modeling of electromagnetic interferences in substations for the deployment of wireless sensor networks. The authors present in chapter 3 the measurement setup to record sequences of impulsive noise samples in the ISM band of interest. The setup can measure substation impulsive noise, in wide band, with enough samples per time window and enough precision to allow a statistical study of the noise. During the measurement campaign, the..

Innovations in Social Finance - Transitioning Beyond Economic Value

Innovations in Social Finance - Transitioning Beyond Economic Value

Our world is experiencing increasingly complex social and environmental challenges. The prevailing business models and, to some extent, capitalism per se, are frequently blamed for these problems due to their neglect of social and environmental values in favour of financial returns. Within this context, social finance has attracted the attention of governments, organizations, entrepreneurs, and researchers as a means of mobilizing resources and innovation with the goal of establishing effective long-term..

Deconstructing Health Inequity - A Perceptual Control Theory Perspective - Timothy A. Carey

Deconstructing Health Inequity - A Perceptual Control Theory Perspective - Timothy A. Carey

This book offers a radically different perspective on the topic of health inequity. Carey, Tai, and Griffiths use Perceptual Control Theory (PCT) to deconstruct current approaches to understanding, investigating, and addressing problems of health inequity. In the book, the authors propose that health inequity is not a problem per se. Disrupted control, they argue, is the problem that needs to be addressed.From this perspective, research, policy, and health practices directed at addressing health..

Plant Growth Regulators

Plant Growth Regulators

Agriculture faces many challenges to fulfil the growing demand for sustainable food production and ensure high-quality nutrition for a rapidly growing population. To guarantee adequate food production, it is necessary to increase the yield per area of arable land. A method for achieving this goal has been the application of growth regulators to modulate plant growth. Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are substances in specific formulations which, when applied to plants or seeds, have the capacity to..

Internet Use and Protest in Malaysia and other Authoritarian Regimes - Challenging Information Scarcity - Kris Ruijgrok

This book investigates the impact of internet use on anti-government protesting under authoritarian rule. By breaking up the causal chain into various steps, it provides a thorough and nuanced understanding of internet¿s role in different stages of the mobilization process. It argues that the impact of internet use on anti-governmental protesting differs per step in the ¿mobilization chain¿, and also that the effect depends on both the on- and offline repression of the regime, as well as on the..
