by Terry Pratchett

New York Times bestselling author Terry Pratchett makes Death a central character in Mort, a fabulous installment in Discworld, the fantasy cosmos where even the angel of darkness needs some assistance. Death comes to everyone eventually on Discworld. And now he's come to Mort with an offer the young man can't refuse. (No, literally, can't refuse since being dead isn't exactly compulsory.) Actually, it's a pretty good deal. As Death's apprentice, Mort will have free board and lodging. He'll get use of the company horse. And he won't have to take any time off for family funerals. But despite the obvious perks, young Mort is about to discover that there is a serious downside to working for the Reaper Man . . . because this perfect job can be a killer on one's love life.Terry Pratchett's profoundly irreverent, bestselling novels have garnered him a revered position in the halls of parody next to the likes of Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, and Carl Hiaasen.

The Evolving Landscape of Higher Education in India: Post-pandemic Policies and Transformations

by Sudhanshu Bhushan

The edited volume discusses the long period of post-colonial developments in higher education in India. It examines the legitimacy of the policies pursued post-pandemic with a focus on the role of teachers and the students' voices. It addresses the essential question of how the technological ascendance in higher education addresses social justice. What is the role of teachers in a new landscape of higher education? It offers insights into the efficiency-centric proposition of the state-market-technology triad, the current paradigm of higher education worldwide. It presents evidence to understand how efficiency has a tradeoff with various aspects of social justice. The authors deal with questions, such as the challenges of privatization and how the commodification of higher education runs counter to the idea of inclusive higher education. The authors critically look at the online form of higher education and how it has led to the shrinkage of democratic spaces in higher education. It discusses the transformative role of teachers with increasing managerialism of higher education. The book highlights a deep understanding of the increasing role of the market and technology and their influence in negating an inclusive and democratic public space in higher education. It appeals to teachers and students by enabling them to understand the market's and technology's impacts on higher education. It has the potential to be a reference book in colleges and universities. It will help the large community of practitioners and policymakers guard against the dangers of overt marketization. The book benefits policymakers, university administrators and teachers, and researchers of higher education interested in governance, technology, teaching, and research in higher education.

by Vitor de Cinque Almeida Katlin Ivon Barrios Eguiluz Giancarlo Richard Salazar Banda Taís Larissa da Silva Hugo Guillermo Jiménez Pacheco

Renewable energies reduce dependence on fossil fuels and minimize the carbon footprint. Solar panels and wind turbines decrease emissions and costs in the industry. Socially, they benefit disconnected communities, improving quality of life and providing opportunities. Sustainable development seeks equity and social inclusion, driving sustainable energy solutions. Renewable energies promote a prosperous and equitable future, addressing environmental and economic challenges. The energy transition is everyone's responsibility to ensure a greener and brighter tomorrow. On the other hand, environmental biotechnology and marine biology are fundamental to address environmental challenges. Research on treating effluents from the dairy, textile, and mining sectors seeks solutions to reduce water pollution. Industrial waste valorization through biotechnology aims to decrease pollution and resource depletion. The production of bio-products, biomaterials, bioplastics, and biofuels offerssustainable alternatives with a lower carbon footprint. Marine biology focuses on understanding and conserving aquatic ecosystems in the face of climate change and human influence. Biotechnology also contributes to the sustainable use of national biodiversity, with applications in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agricultural industries. These multidisciplinary fields are advancing towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. The conference proceedings will consist of original research articles, reviews, and short communications covering several types of renewable energies: Solar including photovoltaic cells or solar thermal systems, Wind, Hydropower, Biomass-based energy, Geothermal, Waves Energy, Hydrogen, Bioenergy, or energy from biological processes, and fuel cell systems. In addition, studies focused on Environmental Biotechnology, including Bioremediation, Bioenergy Production, Microbial Fuel Cells, Waste Valorization, Microplastic Biodegradation, Biodegradable Materials and Phytoremediation, as well as focused on Marine Biology, including Marine Biodiversity and Conservation, Marine Genomics, Ocean Acidification, Marine Ecotoxicology, and Marine Biotechnology and Microbiology.

Hypnosis in the Realm of De-Sign

by Maurício S. Neubern

This book presents a new theoretical framework for the study of hypnosis based on an innovative epistemological approach called De-sign. This approach transcends the opposition subjectivity-objectivity and presents itself as a metaknowledge that integrates design and semiotics and proposes a phenomenological method of inquiry that helps overcome some of the traditional challenges to create theoretical models to explain hypnosis. Both hypnosis and De-sign are critical practices against absolute notions of reality, especially regarding time, space, and otherness. Both of them consider the importance of epistemological notions such as imagination, feelings, and desire, that modern science commonly marginalizes. Hypnosis and De-sign implicate people in partnership, being critical to a dominant notion of control. Thus, the book presents in-depth discussions on major themes of hypnosis, bringing clinical practice closer to the reflections brought by De-sign. Hypnosis in the Realm of De-Sign shows how to integrate semiotic systems, pragmatism, and De-sign principles to analyze actual hypnotherapeutic experiences. As with every De-sign situation, each patient requires a unique therapeutic strategy and approach that is individually appropriate for them. The author thereby encourages therapists to become de-signers, working with — not for — their subjects to create a context within which their subjects can awaken their therapeutic potential. By doing so, patients can then bring into focus that which could be, rather than focusing on that which is.

Wetland Restoration for Endangered Species Recovery: A Multidisciplinary Case Study of Big Meadow Bog, Brier Island, Nova Scotia (Environmental Contamination Remediation and Management)

by Nicholas M. Hill Sarah Hines Nelson J. O’Driscoll

This book provides an overview of the history of this site and the complex effects of the hydrological and ecological changes through the landscape changes, vegetation adaptation, biovector contamination, and ultimately habitat restoration. Big Meadow Bog (Brier Island, Nova Scotia, Canada) is a wetland ecosystem with a history of human disturbance. It was ditched for small-scale blueberry production in the 1950s, which significantly altered the hydrology of the system and resulted in vegetation changes and colonization by 3000+ pairs of herring gulls by the 1980s. It is also host to the endangered plant species Eastern Mountain Avens which was the impetus for restoration of the site. This book provides the background to the restoration decisions, the monitoring and science post-restoration and the lessons learned from the science and through collaboration with government and community.

Werner Sombart und der „Geist“ des modernen Kapitalismus: Wiederentdeckung eines Klassikers

by Christopher Adair-Toteff

Dieses Buch beleuchtet das Werk von Werner Sombart, einem wichtigen Zeitgenossen von Max Weber, und zeigt, wie sein Denken die Grundlagen für Konzepte des modernen Kapitalismus legte. Obwohl der Begriff des „Geistes“ des modernen Kapitalismus am häufigsten mit Weber verbunden wird, war es Sombart, der diesen Ausdruck zuerst verwendete, während Weber sich hauptsächlich auf die Sozialökonomik konzentrierte, während Sombart seine Ideen zum modernen Kapitalismus weiterentwickelte. Dieses Buch analysiert kritisch Sombarts bahnbrechendes Werk „Der moderne Kapitalismus“ und andere Schriften, um zu zeigen, wie sie als ergänzende Alternative zu Weber gelesen werden können, und bietet eine detailliertere und umfassendere Darstellung der Entstehung und Natur des modernen Kapitalismus. Dieses Buch wird ein interessantes Werk für ein wissenschaftliches Publikum sein, einschließlich Studierenden und Forschern der Geschichte des wirtschaftlichen Denkens sowie in den Bereichen Soziologie, Politik und Politische Ökonomie.
