Integration of Low Carbon Technologies in Smart Grids

Integration of Low Carbon Technologies in Smart Grids by Donato Zarrilli
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 (2019 Edition) | 107 Pages | ISBN : 3319983571 | 7.78 MB

The thesis provides different opportunities and ideas to face some current challenges in the electricity systems. It focuses on the effective and efficient integration of distributed low carbon technologies in the grid of the future. Planning and operation problems for different clean solutions, such as market bidding strategies for intermittent energy producers, demand side management algorithms for smart buildings, and electrical storage options for network operators, are studied for facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources in the power system chain.

A Political Theory of Post-Truth

A Political Theory of Post-Truth

A Political Theory of Post-Truth by Ignas Kalpokas
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 (2019 Edition) | 141 Pages | ISBN : 3319977121 | 2.45 MB

This book combines political theory with media and communications studies in order to formulate a theory of post-truth, concentrating on the latter’s preconditions, context, and functions in today’s societies. Contrary to the prevalent view of post-truth as primarily manipulative, it is argued that post-truth is, instead, a collusion in which audiences willingly engage with aspirational narratives co-created with the communicators. Meanwhile, the broader meta-framework for post-truth is provided by mediatisation—increasing subjection of a variety of social spheres to media logic and the primacy of media in everyday human activities. Ultimately, post-truth is governed by collective efforts to maximise the pleasure of encountering the world and attempts to set hegemonic benchmarks for such pleasure.

Music Interventions for Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Music Interventions for Neurodevelopmental Disorders by Alessandro Antonietti
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 | 107 Pages | ISBN : 3319971506 | 1.59 MB

This book explores how music can improve skills that are impaired in some neurodevelopmental disorders, including ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), autism, and Rett syndrome. Rehabilitation interventions based on the use of music, termed “music therapy”, are relatively widespread, but not all are supported by empirical evidence. This book offers readers an updated and scientifically grounded perspective on this theory and argues that music can be effective in promoting the acquisition of some basic mental abilities. Chapters present some of the latest research and data on how musical activities can lead children affected by neurodevelopmental disorders to improve those skills, including examples of training programs and exercises. The book will be a valuable resource for therapists, rehabilitators, psychologists, educators, musicians, researchers, as well as anyone interested in exploring the potential in music for human growth.

Endocytosis and Signaling

Endocytosis and Signaling by Christophe Lamaze
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 | 332 Pages | ISBN : 3319967037 | 9.52 MB

This book focuses on the context dependency of cell signaling by showing how the endosomal system helps to structure and regulate signaling pathways. The location and concentration of signaling nodes regulate their activation cycles and engagement with distinct effector pathways. Whilst many cell signaling pathways are initiated from the cell surface, endocytosis provides an opportunity for modulating signaling networks’ output.

Teachers as Tutors: Shadow Education Market Dynamics in Georgia

Teachers as Tutors: Shadow Education Market Dynamics in Georgia by Magda Nutsa Kobakhidze
English | PDF | 2018 | 273 Pages | ISBN : 331995914X | 3.4 MB

The so-called shadow education system of private supplementary tutoring has become a global phenomenon but has different features in different settings. This book explores the ways in which teacher-tutors’ beliefs, social norms, ideals about professionalism, and community values shape their economic decisions in the informal shadow education marketplace. Through theoretical lenses of economic sociology and anthropology, this study uncovers strong social and moral embeddedness of the shadow education market in social relationships, cultural norms and moralities in post-Soviet Georgia. The book questions some of the basic assumptions that the predominant neoliberal discourse promotes worldwide.

« La bombe a convenablement fonctionné ; sur ce plan, il a tout lieu d’être satisfait. Les rescapés tentent déjà de secourir les victimes restées au sol. Jean s’engouffre dans le métro. Lui ne va secourir personne. Il est le poseur de bombes. » Jean Garnier n’a plus rien à perdre dans la vie : sa mère est en prison, sa petite amie a été tuée et il n’a plus de travail. Face à ce jeune paumé, Camille Verhoeven doit agir avec plus de finesse que jamais : Jean est-il une vraie menace pour le pays tout entier, ou juste un loser atteint de la folie des grandeurs ?

Les Doges, un lieu-dit au fin fond des Cévennes. C’est là qu’habite Gus, un paysan entre deux âges solitaire et taiseux. Ses journées : les champs, les vaches, le bois, les réparations. Des travaux ardus, rythmés par les conditions météorologiques. La compagnie de son chien, Mars, comme seul réconfort. C’est aussi le quotidien d’Abel, voisin dont la ferme est éloignée de quelques mètres, devenu ami un peu par défaut, pour les bras et pour les verres. Un jour, l’abbé Pierre disparaît, et tout bascule : Abel change, des événements inhabituels se produisent, des visites inopportunes se répètent.

Queering Transcultural Encounters: Bodies, Image, and Frenchness in Latin America and North Africa

Queering Transcultural Encounters: Bodies, Image, and Frenchness in Latin America and North Africa by Luis Navarro-Ayala
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 (2019 Edition) | 195 Pages | ISBN : 3319923145 | 2.47 MB

In a highly original and interdisciplinary work bridging French and Francophone studies, cultural studies, media studies, and gender and sexuality studies, Luis Navarro-Ayala examines the transnational queer body as a physical and symbolic entity intrinsically connected with space. Through a transcultural and intersectional approach to bodily representations, socioeconomic conditions, and postcolonial politics, Navarro-Ayala analyzes queerness and Frenchness in narratives from North Africa and Latin America, revealing that Frenchness is coded to represent a sexually deviant “Other.” France and Frenchness, in two distinct regions of the global South, have come to represent an imagined queer space enabling sexual exploration, even in social conditions that would have otherwise prevented queer agency.

"J'entretiens depuis longtemps une étrange relation d'amour-haine avec les Etats-Unis, un pays que j'admire pour bien des raisons - dont les plus évidentes sont le cinéma, la littérature et la musique - et que je déteste pour d'autres. J'ai par ailleurs une relation personnelle avec ce pays : ma soeur et mes deux nièces y vivent. Tout ceci me pousse à voyager aux Etats-Unis, à écrire sur ce pays et à tenter de le comprendre. Une grande part de mes romans sont le fruit de voyages. Un roman, en soi, est un voyage, aussi bien physique que mental…

Rethinking Stateless Nations and National Identity in Wales and the Basque Country

Rethinking Stateless Nations and National Identity in Wales and the Basque Country

Rethinking Stateless Nations and National Identity in Wales and the Basque Country by Sophie Williams
English | PDF,EPUB | 2018 (2019 Edition) | 283 Pages | ISBN : 3319914081 | 3.78 MB

This book looks at the fundamental components of national identity as understood by ordinary nation members, and the way in which it is mobilised by political elites. Drawing on an original case comparison between Wales and the Basque Country, the author suggests there are many commonalities between these two nations, particularly around the fundamentals of their national identities. However, differences occur in terms of degree of intensity of feeling and around the politicisation of identity, with more entrenched and hostile political positioning in the Basque Country than Wales. Through a multi-level comparison, the book generates insights into national identity as a theoretical concept and in a ‘stateless nation’ context. It argues for national identity's intangible, yet polemical, nature, looking at the primordialist way it is understood, its permanence and importance, coupled with its lack of everyday salience and consequent obligations.
