This important new text introduces conservation criminology as the interdisciplinary study of environmental exploitation and risks at the intersection of human and natural systems. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the book enhances understanding of the various human and organizational behaviors that pose risks to the environment, humans, and drive conservation crime. As human population growth, global market economies, climate change, deforestation, and illegal exploitation of natural resources continue to increase, academic research from numerous disciplines is needed to address these challenges. Conservation Criminology promotes thinking about how unsustainable natural resources exploitation is a cause and a consequence of social conflict. Case studies profiled in the book demonstrate this cause and effect type situation, as well as innovative approaches for reducing risks to people and the environment. This text encourages readers to consider how humans behave in response to environmental risks and the various mechanisms that constitute effective and ineffective approaches to enforcement of wildlife crimes, including environmental and conservation policy. Case studies from the USA, Latin America, Africa, and Asia highlight corruption in conservation, global trade in electronic waste, illegal fishing, illegal logging, human-wildlife conflict, technology and space, water insecurity, wildlife disease, and wildlife poaching. Taken together, chapters expand the reader’s perspective and employ tools to understand and address environmental crimes and risks, and to provide novel empirical evidence for positive change. With established contributors providing interdisciplinary and global perspectives, this book establishes a foundation for the emerging field of conservation criminology.

Construction innovation is an important but contested concept, both in industry practice and academic reflection and research. A fundamental reason for this is the nature of the construction industry itself: the industry and the value creation activities taking place there are multi-disciplinary, heterogeneous, distributed and often fragmented. This book takes a new approach to construction innovation, revealing different perspectives, set in a broader context. It coalesces multiple theoretical and practice-based views in order to stimulate reflection and to prepare the ground for further synthesis. By being clear, cogent and unambiguous on the most basic definitions, it can mobilise a plurality of perspectives on innovation to promote fresh thinking on how it can be studied, enabled, measured, and propagated across the industry. This book does not gloss over the real-life complexity of construction innovation. Instead, its authors look explicitly at the challenges that conceptual issues entail and by making their own position clear, they open up fresh intellectual space for reflection. Construction Innovation examines innovation from different positions and through different conceptual lenses to reveal the richness that the theoretical perspectives offer to our understanding of the way that the construction sector actors innovate at both project and organizational levels. The editors have brought together here leading scholars to deconstruct the concept of innovation and to discuss the merits of different perspectives, their commonalities and their diversity. The result is an invaluable sourcebook for those studying and leading innovation in the design, the building and the maintenance of our built environment.

Neben einer ?berarbeitung aller Inhalte auf den aktuellen Wissenstand im Bereich der konventionellen prothetischen Methoden wurden die digitalen Methoden weitaus st?rker als zuvor berücksichtigt, wodurch sich der Inhalt der 5. Auflage nochmals deutlich erweitert hat.
Von A wie Anamnese bis Z wie Zirkonoxid wird in nun 49 Kapiteln ein synoptisches Behandlungskonzept vorgestellt, das s?mtliche Bereiche der modernen zahn?rztlichen Prothetik einschlie?t. Das Behandlungskonzept zeichnet sich durch individuell auf den Patienten zugeschnittene Konzepte aus, die ?sthetische Ansprüche, minimalinvasive Methoden und die Langlebigkeit prothetischer Versorgungen gleicherma?en berücksichtigen. Neben den klassischen Gebieten der festsitzenden, abnehmbaren und kombinierten (Implantat-)Prothetik und der zahn?rztlichen Werkstoffkunde werden unter anderem die pr?prothetische Parodontologie, die Myoarthropathien des Kausystems und viele weitere pr?prothetische Vorbehandlungsma?nahmen sowie die Nachsorge detailliert beschrieben. Durch die Erg?nzung spezieller Themen wie des Mundschutzes im Sport, der mundgesundheitsbezogenen Lebensqualit?t sowie der evidenzbasierten Zahnmedizin wird mit diesem Werk ein umfassendes Bild des Faches vermittelt.

Written by leading experts in the field, Cyanobacteria: An Economic Perspective is a comprehensive edited volume covering all areas of an important field and its application to energy, medicine and agriculture. Issues related to environment, food and energy have presented serious challenge to the stability of nation-states. Increasing global population, dwindling agriculture and industrial production, and inequitable distribution of resources and technologies have further aggravated the problem. The burden placed by increasing population on environment and especially on agricultural productivity is phenomenal. To provide food and fuel to such a massive population, it becomes imperative to find new ways and means to increase the production giving due consideration to biosphere’s ability to regenerate resources and provide ecological services. Cyanobacteria are environment friendly resource for commercial production of active biochemicals, drugs and future energy (biodiesel, bioethanol and hydrogen). Topics on isolation, identification and classification of cyanobacteria are discussed, as well as further sections on: summarizing a range of useful products synthesized by cyanobacteria, ecological services provided by cyanobacteria including their harmful effect in water bodies and associated flora and fauna. Chapter on tools, techniques, and patents also focus on the economic importance of the group. This book also provides an insight for future perspectives in each particular field and an extensive bibliography. This book will be a highly useful resource for students, researchers and professionals in academics in the life sciences including microbiology and biotechnology.

In Bolivien toben kurz nach der Macht?bernahme durch Evo Morales erbitterte Auseinandersetzungen um die Autonomie des Tieflands, dessen Eliten mit der Sezession lieb?ugeln. Robert Spreng, ein 'Deutschland-Fl?chtling' und Entwicklungshelfer, ger?t unfreiwillig in diesen komplexen Konflikt und wird zum einen Zeuge und Betroffener des blutigen und m?rderischen R?nkespiels zwischen Geheimdiensten, Paramilit?rs, Nazi-Logen und den Leuten des Staatspr?sidenten Morales.

Das – unerw?nschte – Jagdverhalten seines Hundes hat schon so manchen Menschen verzweifeln lassen. Der sorgsam trainierte Grundgehorsam scheint vergessen, sobald ein Hase oder Reh den Weg kreuzt.
W?hrend die einen sagen, da helfe nur Starkzwang, zucken die anderen resigniert die Schultern und meinen, da k?nne man nichts machen. Denn die Meinungen, wie mit einem Hund zu arbeiten sei, dessen Jagdtrieb stark ausgepr?gt ist, differieren erheblich.
Clarissa v. Reinhardt, international gefragte Trainerin und Autorin diverser Fachpublikationen ?ber Hunde, hat sich ?ber viele Jahre mit diesem Thema besch?ftigt. W?hrend der Arbeit mit Hunden der unterschiedlichsten Rassen und Altersstufen hat sie ein vollkommen neues Trainingskonzept entwickelt, das f?r jeden Hundebesitzer leicht nachzuvollziehen und durchf?hrbar ist. Dabei betont sie immer wieder, dass ihr nicht jedes Mittel recht ist, um einen Hund zu einem zuverl?ssigen Gehorsam zu bringen – ganz im Gegenteil weist sie darauf hin, dass wir Menschen nicht das Recht haben, ein uns anvertrautes Lebewesen f?r instinktgesteuerte Verhaltensweisen mit Gewalteinwirkung zu strafen.
In diesem Buch f?hrt sie Schritt f?r Schritt durch die ?bungen und l?dt den Leser ein, mehr ?ber das komplexe Verhaltensspektrum seines Hundes zu erfahren und im Training jede Menge Spa? mit ihm zu haben.
Aus dem Inhalt: – Die Handlungskette des Jagdverhaltens – Das T?ten/ T?tungsstrategien – Die K?rpersprache/ das Ausdrucksverhalten des Hundes – Die Sinne im Einsatz – Kommunikatives Spazierengehen als Schl?ssel zum Trainingserfolg – Abruf?bungen – Selbst?ndiges Absitzen beim Anblick von Beute – Fehlerquellen im Training… – Hilfsmittel im Training – Trainingsmethoden und ihre Grenzen … und vieles mehr!

Wenn zwei das Gleiche tun, ist es noch lange nicht dasselbe!
Der Autor, selbst seit ?ber 45 Jahren Typ 1-Diabetiker, erz?hlt in diesem Band der «Geschichten mit dem Diabetes» von seinen Abenteuern mit der japanischen Art der Diabetesbehandlung, die er im Rahmen eines freiwilligen Krankenhausaufenthaltes und einer Schulungsma?nahme f?r Diabetiker an der Tokyo Women Medical University erleben – durfte und musste. Das war kein Kulturschock – es war der Eintritt in ein anderes Universum.
Erfahren Sie unter anderem, wie eine spezielle Di?t f?r Typ 1-Diabetiker festgelegt, wie ein Basalratentest auf Japanisch durchgef?hrt und wie im Land des L?chelns auf Notf?lle im Bereich des Diabetes reagiert wird.
In trotz des Ernstes humorvoller und manchmal leicht ironischer Weise legt der Autor die vorhandenen Missst?nde in einem Teilbereich des japanischen Gesundheitssystems dar und macht dabei gravierende Unterschiede deutlich, insbesondere zu Deutschland.

Der Ersatz eines einzelnen Zahnes durch ein Implantat ist eine der h?ufigsten klinischen Situationen, mit denen Praktiker tagt?glich konfrontiert werden. Fr?her lie? man die Extraktionsalveolen monatelang ungest?rt abheilen, bevor man sich um den verbliebenen Alveolarkamm k?mmerte. Heute k?nnen mit einzeitigen Eingriffen gute Ergebnisse erreicht werden, was f?r Patient und Behandler ein gro?er Vorteil ist.
Dieses Buch, geschrieben von zwei Koryph?en der klinischen Zahnheilkunde, beschreibt praxisnah und detailliert evidenzbasierte Konzepte f?r Einzelzahnimplantate im Front- und Seitenzahnbereich. Es beginnt mit den Grundlagen und der Klassifikation von Extraktionsalveolen und widmet sich dann ausf?hrlich der Extraktion, Implantation und dem Management der verschiedenen Extraktionsalveolen mit ihren Indikationen. Ein weiteres Kapitel erl?utert die speziellen klinischen Anforderungen im Seitenzahnbereich, gefolgt von einem Kapitel ?ber Abformung, Zementierung und Komplikationen. Abschlie?end zeigen elf vollst?ndig dokumentierte klinische F?lle das erfolgreiche Vorgehen bei der Versorgung mit Einzelzahnimplantaten unter den verschiedenen Voraussetzungen.
