Chemistry for Space Settlement

Chemistry for Space Settlement
Chemistry for Space Settlement by David Dietzler
English | 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09FYDVBMS | 160 pages | EPUB | 1.19 Mb
The science of chemistry is essential for space settlement. It is central to the business of metal smelting, oxygen extraction, glass and ceramic making, rocket propellant manufacturing and the production of plastics, synthetic fibers and medicines using the resources available in space. The use of space resources and the chemistry of making all sorts of materials needed for the settlement of space is discussed in this book. An overview of basic processes is provided; not with the intention of answering all questions, but to inspire others to learn more and research the challenge of space settlement with elements from the Moon, Mars, asteroids and beyond. The layman with an interest in science, businesspeople, students, would be space tourists and settlers, and space enthusiasts should find this book interesting as well as the technician, engineer or scientist.

Chasing Ghosts A Memoir of a Father, Gone to War

Chasing Ghosts A Memoir of a Father, Gone to War
Louise DeSalvo, "Chasing Ghosts: A Memoir of a Father, Gone to War "
English | ISBN: 0823268845 | 2015 | 288 pages | EPUB | 989 KB
When literary biographer and memoirist Louise DeSalvo embarked upon a journey to learn why her father came home from World War II a changed man, she didn't realize her quest would take ten years, and that it would yield more revelations about the man―and herself―and the effect of his military service upon their family than she'd ever imagined. During his last years, as he told her about his life, DeSalvo began to understand that her obsession with war novels and military history wasn't merely academic but rooted in her desire to understand this complex father whom she both adored and reviled because of his mistreatment of her. Although she at first believes she wants to uncover his story, the story of a man who was no hero but who was nonetheless adversely affected by the his military service, she learns that what she really wants is to recover the man that he was before he went away.

Cervical Cancer Risk Factors and Screening

Cervical Cancer Risk Factors and Screening
Cervical Cancer: Risk Factors and Screening by Akmal El-Mazny
English | 2020 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B08GZMBSHK | 145 pages | EPUB | 1.49 Mb
Cervical cancer is the third most common malignancy in women worldwide, and it remains a leading cause of cancer-related death for women in developing countries. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection appears to be a necessary factor in the development of almost all cases of cervical cancer. Cancer screening using the Pap smear can identify precancerous changes in cervical cells. Recognition of the etiologic role of HPV infection in cervical cancer has led to the recommendation of adding HPV testing to the screening regimen. However, women who have symptoms, abnormal screening test results, or a gross lesion of the cervix are best evaluated with colposcopy and biopsy. HPV vaccines are currently approved for the prevention of HPV-associated cervical dysplasia and neoplasia. Treatment of cervical cancer usually consists of surgery in early stages, and chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy in more advanced stages of the disease. This book provides a comprehensive review of cervical cancer along with its risk factors and screening, which will be of immense value for physicians and allied health professionals.

Cartographies of Tsardom The Land and Its Meanings in Seventeenth-Century Russia

Cartographies of Tsardom The Land and Its Meanings in Seventeenth-Century Russia
Cartographies of Tsardom: The Land and Its Meanings in Seventeenth-Century Russia By Valerie A. Kivelson
2006 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0801472539 | PDF | 10 MB
Toward the end of the sixteenth century, and throughout the seventeenth, thinking in spatial terms assumed extraordinary urgency among Russia's ruling elites. The two great developments of this era in Russian history-the enserfment of the peasantry and the conquest of a vast Eastern empire-fundamentally concerned spatial control and concepts of movements across the land. In Cartographies of Tsardom, Valerie Kivelson explores how these twin themes of fixity and mobility obliged Russians, from tsar to peasant, to think in spatial terms. She builds her case through close study of two very different kinds of maps: the hundreds of local maps hand-drawn by amateurs as evidence in property litigations, and the maps of the new territories that stretched from the Urals to the Pacific. In both the simple (but strikingly beautiful and even moving) maps that local residents drafted and in the more formal maps of the newly conquered Siberian spaces, Kivelson shows that the Russians saw the land (be it a peasant's Description or the Siberian taiga) as marked by the grace of divine providence. She argues that the unceasing tension between fixity and mobility led to the emergence in Eurasia of an empire quite different from that in North America. In her words, the Russian empire that took shape in the decades before Peter the Great proclaimed its existence was a spacious mantle, a patchwork quilt of difference under a single tsar that granted religious and cultural space to non-Russian, non-Orthodox populations even as it strove to tie them down to serve its own growing fiscal needs. The unresolved, perhaps unresolvable, tension between these contrary impulses was both the strength and the weakness of empire in Russia. This handsomely illustrated and beautifully written book, which features twenty-four pages of color plates, will appeal to everyone fascinated by the history of Russia and all who are intrigued by the art of mapmaking.
