Ethical and SEC in the Biotechnology Debate in Africa

Ethical and SEC in the Biotechnology Debate in Africa

Jean W Kebere

Lap Lambert Academic Publishing
2024
pokkari
Substantial international support has been provided to Africa to help the continent harness science, technology, and innovation opportunities to address its critical food insecurity and malnutrition challenges. However, African countries remain among the most affected by these challenges. Agricultural biotech, although largely utilized in America and Asia with compelling results, is still disregarded by most African countries.This book explores the importance of ethics and SEC in the biotechnology debate in Africa, and the role of the new construct of biosafety communication in addressing these non-safety aspects of the technology. The research investigates the role of the biosafety communication approach in relation to the often-ignored facets of ethics and SEC in biotech. The investigation harnesses a triangulated research approach that reviews the existing academic and scientific literature and content analysis of existing data, as well as semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders in four African countries within three regional economic communities.

Afrika erhielt erhebliche internationale Unterst tzung, um dem Kontinent dabei zu helfen, die M glichkeiten von Wissenschaft, Technologie und Innovation zu nutzen, um seine kritischen Herausforderungen in Bezug auf Ern hrungsunsicherheit und Unterern hrung zu bew ltigen. Allerdings geh ren die afrikanischen L nder nach wie vor zu den L ndern, die von diesen Herausforderungen am st rksten betroffen sind. Obwohl die landwirtschaftliche Biotechnologie in Amerika und Asien weitgehend mit berzeugenden Ergebnissen eingesetzt wird, wird sie von den meisten afrikanischen L ndern immer noch ignoriert. Dieses Buch untersucht die Bedeutung von Ethik und SEC in der Biotechnologiedebatte in Afrika und die Rolle des neuen Konstrukts der Biosicherheitskommunikation bei der Behandlung dieser nicht sicherheitsrelevanten Aspekte der Technologie. Die Forschung untersucht die Rolle des Kommunikationsansatzes zur biologischen Sicherheit in Bezug auf die oft ignorierten Aspekte von Ethik und SEC in der Biotechnologie. Die Untersuchung nutzt einen triangulierten Forschungsansatz, der die vorhandene akademische und wissenschaftliche Literatur berpr ft und die Inhaltsanalyse vorhandener Daten sowie halbstrukturierte Interviews mit wichtigen Interessenvertretern in vier afrikanischen L ndern innerhalb von drei regionalen Wirtschaftsgemeinschaften durchf hrt.

Vol. IIIEast Central Europe in the Middle Ages, 1000-1500

Jean W. Sedlar

University of Washington Press
2013
pokkari
Although the Middle Ages saw brilliant achievements in the diverse nations of East Central Europe, this period has been almost totally neglected in Western historical scholarship. East Central Europe in the Middle Ages provides a much-needed overview of the history of the region from the time when the present nationalities established their state structures and adopted Christianity up to the Ottoman conquest. Jean Sedlar's excellent synthesis clarifies what was going on in Europe between the Elbe and the Ukraine during the Middle Ages, making available for the first time in a single volume information necessary to a fuller understanding of the early history of present-day Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, and the former Yugoslavia.Sedlar writes clearly and fluently, drawing upon publications in numerous languages to craft a masterful study that is accessible and valuable to the general reader and the expert alike. The book is organized thematically; within this framework Sedlar has sought to integrate nationalities and to draw comparisons. Topics covered include early migrations, state formation, monarchies, classes (nobles, landholders, peasants, herders, serfs, and slaves), towns, religion, war, governments, laws and justice, commerce and money, foreign affairs, ethnicity and nationalism, languages and literature, and education and literacy.After the Middle Ages these nations were subsumed by the Ottoman, Habsburg, Russian, and Prussian-German empires. This loss of independence means that their history prior to foreign conquest has acquired exceptional importance in today's national consciousness, and the medieval period remains a major point of reference and a source of national pride and ethnic identity. This book is a substantial and timely contribution to our knowledge of the history of East Central Europe.

Serials Management in Academic Libraries

Serials Management in Academic Libraries

Jean W. Farrington

Libraries Unlimited Inc
1997
sidottu
In the decade ahead, libraries will have to do more with less. Fewer journal titles owned by each institution, less detailed cataloging, and fewer staff will become realities as libraries are forced to cope with budget restrictions. Serials management, in particular, will require a greater degree of adaptability and flexibility. This professional reference overviews the most significant emerging issues concerning serials management in academic libraries and provides practical advice to aid librarians in responding to a changing environment. Among the issues discussed are the debate of access versus ownership, the electronic dissemination of text and document delivery, standards for electronic data transfer, and approaches to cataloging. The volume offers practical solutions to the problems facing librarians, and it stresses the increasing role of automation in effective serials management.This professional reference is a guide to the many evolving issues in serials management, as well as a source of practical information designed to assist academic librarians in successfully managing their serials in a rapidly changing environment. Some of the key issues discussed include access versus ownership, the electronic dissemination of texts, document delivery systems, standards for the electronic transfer of data, and the debate over the outsourcing of cataloging. Fortunately, many of the issues concerning serials management readily lend themselves to automation. Thus, this volume gives considerable attention to automation as a solution to many of the problems confronting librarians. Each chapter includes references to current literature, and the volume concludes with a selected bibliography of works for further reading.

Catalyst Engineering Technology

Catalyst Engineering Technology

Jean W. L. Beeckman

Wiley-Blackwell
2020
sidottu
This book gives a comprehensive explanation of what governs the breakage of extruded materials, and what techniques are used to measure it. The breakage during impact aka collision is explained using basic laws of nature allowing readers to determine the handling severity of catalyst manufacturing equipment and the severity of entire plants. This information can then be used to improve on the architecture of existing plants and how to design grass-roots plants. The book begins with a summary of particle forming techniques in the particle technology industry. It covers extrusion technology in more detail since extrusion is one of the workhorses for particle manufacture. A section is also dedicated on how to describe transport and chemical reaction in such particulates for of course their final use. It presents the fundamentals of the study of breakage by relating basic laws in different fields (mechanics and physics) and this leads to two novel dimensionless groups that govern breakage. These topics are then apply these topics to R&D scale-up and manufacturing and shows how this approach is directly applicable.

Nonequilibrium Effects in Ion and Electron Transport

Nonequilibrium Effects in Ion and Electron Transport

Jean W. Gallagher

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2011
nidottu
This volume presents the contributions of the participants in the Sixth International Swarm Seminar, held August 2-5, 1989, at the Webb Institute in Glen Cove, New York. The Swarm Seminars are traditionally held as relatively small satellite conferences of the International Conference on the Physics of Electronic and Atomic Collisions (ICPEAC) which occurs every two years. The 1989 ICPEAC took place in New York City prior to the Swarm Seminar. The focus of the Swarm Seminars has been on basic research relevant to understanding the transport of charged particles, mainly electrons and ions, in weakly ionized gases. This is a field that tends to bridge the gap between studies of fundamental binary atomic and molecular collision processes and studies of electrical breakdown or discharge phenomena in gases. Topics included in the 1989 seminar ranged the gamut from direct determinations of charged-particle collision cross sections to use of cross sections and swarm parameters to model the behavior of electrical gas discharges. Although the range of subjects covered was in many respects similar to that of previous seminars, there was an emphasis on certain selected themes that tended to give this seminar a distinctly different flavor. There was, for example, considerable discussion on the meaning of "equilibrium" and the conditions under which nonequilibrium effects become important in the transport of electrons through a gas.

Larry Brown

Larry Brown

Jean W. Cash; Shannon Ravenel

UNIVERSITY PRESS OF MISSISSIPPI
2024
pokkari
Larry Brown (1951–2004) was unique among writers who started their careers in the late twentieth century. Unlike most of them—his friends Clyde Edgerton, Jill McCorkle, Rick Bass, and Kaye Gibbons, among others—he was neither a product of a writing program, nor did he teach at one. In fact, he did not even attend college. His innate talent, his immersion in the life of north Mississippi, and his determination led him to national success. Drawing on excerpts from numerous letters and material from interviews with family members and friends, Larry Brown: A Writer's Life is the first biography of a landmark southern writer. Jean W. Cash explores the cultural milieu of Oxford, Mississippi, and the writers who influenced Brown, including William Faulkner, Flannery O'Connor, Harry Crews, and Cormac McCarthy. She covers Brown's history in Mississippi, the troubled family in which he grew up, and his boyhood in Tula and Yocona, Mississippi, and in Memphis, Tennessee. She relates stories from Brown's time in the Marines, his early married life—which included sixteen years as an Oxford fireman—and what he called his ""apprenticeship"" period, the eight years during which he was teaching himself to write publishable fiction. The book examines Brown's years as a writer: the stories and novels he wrote, his struggles to acclimate himself to the fame his writing brought him, and his many trips outside Yocona, where he spent the last thirty years of his life. The book concludes with a discussion of his posthumous fame, including the publication of A Miracle of Catfish, the novel he had nearly completed just before his death. Brown's cadre of fans will relish this comprehensive portrait of the man and his work.
