by Albert Barth Viv E. Perry Lauren E. Hamilton Peter Sutovsky Richard OkoThis book provides a broad perspective on understanding bovine fertility, focusing on the classification and interpretation of bovine sperm defects. Building upon the success of its first edition published in 1989, this new edition has been significantly updated and expanded to reflect developments over the past three decades. The chapters cover topics such as the normal and abnormal development of bovine sperm, the mechanisms behind sperm defects, and the impact of these defects on fertility. Special attention is drawn at advances in genomic research and the use of sperm quality biomarkers and genetic screening tests in the assessment of bull fertility. In addition to this, the work explores critical periods for sexual development in bulls, such as early gestation and pre-weaning. This monograph is intended for researchers and students in the field of animal reproduction, veterinarians, and animal scientists. It provides a deep understanding of bovine fertility, a topic that is crucial for anyone working in livestock production or related fields. The knowledge gained from this book will be beneficial to those seeking to improve livestock productivity and thus contribute to global food security.
The Abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate, 1924: Debates and Implications (Durham Modern Middle East and Islamic World Series)
by Elisa GiunchiThis book explores the decision by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey in 1924 to abolish the caliphate. The Ottoman sultans had long borne the title of caliphs of Islam, with all the prestigious authority throughout the Muslim world that went with it, and in the aftermath of the First World War the caliphate still retained great symbolic relevance.The book considers the questions that arose with its abolition, including whether or not the caliphate should be revived, reformed or replaced by other forms of political affiliation and organization. It also assesses more general issues concerning identity and legitimate authority, and how to reconcile time-honoured religious institutions and concepts with modernity, the nation-state and affiliations of an ethnic and religious nature. The book additionally addresses the debates within the pan-Islamic congresses concerning the fate of the caliphate, and the implications of its abolition for Kurdish–Turkish relations and for the British and French Empires with their large Muslim populations.
Abolitionist Voices
by David Gordon Scott, Johannes FeestWhy have so many radical thinkers advocated for the abolition of prisons and punishment? And why have their ideas been so difficult to popularize or garner the political will for change? This book outlines several different approaches to penal abolitionism and showcases their calls for the ending of legal coercion, domination, and repression. This exciting and innovative edited collection shows how abolitionist ideas have continued topicality and relevance in the present day and how they can collectively help with devising new ways of thinking about social problems, as well as suggesting alternatives to existing penal policies, practices and institutions.
Aboriginal and European History Past and Present: Truth-telling in the Northern Territory of Australia (Archaeology and Indigenous Peoples)
by Kellie PollardThis book analyses the 150-year history of continuous contact between Aboriginal people and non-Aboriginal people in the Darwin region of the Northern Territory of Australia after the European invasion in 1869 to the present day.It explores the role Aboriginal fringe camps served, and still do, as places of interface between Aboriginal people and non-Aboriginal people in the context of ongoing colonialism after colonisation. The book argues that Aboriginal fringe camps provide much potential for elucidating aspects of Aboriginal responses to the European invasion and, in a contemporary context, bear distinct evidence of a cultural nature that associates their origins, use, purpose, and functions predominantly with Aboriginal people. It contributes a new and innovative theoretical model that will enable readers to conceive how insights about Aboriginal behaviour in the context of Aboriginal fringe camps were achieved. The model is informed by the frameworks of colonialism and, innovatively, philosophy.Contributing new theoretical knowledge to contact histories and relations between Europeans and Indigenous peoples, the book will be important to researchers in the archaeology of Australia and those concerned with Indigenous Studies.
Aboriginal Community-Based Educators Teaching the Teachers: Learning from Country in the City
by Katrina Thorpe Cathie Burgess Suzanne Egan Valerie HarwoodThis book showcases the transformative impact of Aboriginal community-based educators teaching local histories and cultures to preservice teachers. It details the &‘Learning from Country in the City&’ teaching and research project, which follows preservice teachers who participated in immersive &‘Learning from Country&’ experiences in undergraduate Aboriginal education electives through to their first few years of teaching. Through storying Aboriginal community-based educator, preservice and early career teacher, and lecturer experiences, this book demonstrates the educational and emotional impact of Aboriginal truth telling processes and the significance of connecting with and learning from Country for all teachers and students. A visual representation of the pedagogical framework articulates this work which is designed to capture localised place-based learning processes and apply these principles to diverse contexts. The book presents photographs and maps of the places at the centre of this learning so educators, community members and readers can visualise how they might apply this methodology to their context. Importantly, this book positions Indigenous Knowledges, Aboriginal voices and ways of knowing, being and doing front and centre - asserting that this is essential foundational work needed to prepare young people for living in an ever-changing world.
Abortion Attitudes and Polarization in the American Electorate (Elements in Gender and Politics)
by Erin C. Cassese Heather L. Ondercin Jordan RandallAbout two-thirds of Americans support legal abortion in many or all circumstances, and this group finds itself a frustrated majority following the Supreme Court's 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization which overturned the legal precedent set in Roe v. Wade. Previous scholarship argues intense minorities can secure favorable policy outcomes when facing off against a more diffuse and less motivated majority, creating incongruence between public opinion and policy. This Element focuses on the ways that preference intensity and partisan polarization have contributed to the current policy landscape surrounding abortion rights. Using survey data from the American National Election Studies, the authors identify Americans with intense preferences about abortion and investigate the role they play in electoral politics. They observe a shift in the relationship between partisanship and preference intensity coinciding with Dobbs and speculate about what this means for elections and policy congruence in the future.
Abortion in the Age of Unreason: A Doctor's Account of Caring for Women Before and After Roe v. Wade
by Warren M. HernThis vivid account by a nationally prominent doctor reports the daily challenges of offering and receiving abortion services in a volatile political and social atmosphere. In stories from the front lines – from protecting patients and staff from protesters’ attacks to the dangers to women of restricted access to abortion services, and the pertinent findings of his remote research in Latin America, Hern’s book is strikingly detailed just as it exposes the needs of women and the U. S. national interest. Dr. Hern – an abortion specialist, researcher, scholar, and highly visible public advocate –shows how abortion saves women’s lives given the many risks that arise during pregnancy – remarkably more than most people realize. He points to political and national solutions to reverse a reawakened crisis that now threatens democracy. Throughout the book, Dr. Hern shows how the current emergency was largely created by political actors who have exploited and distorted the abortion issue to increase and consolidate their power.A vital component of women’s health care, the crisis over abortion is not new. Yet the reversal of Roe v. Wade and the steady accumulation of power by America’s right wing has put the issue at a level of urgency and national prominence not seen since the days before legalization. Women’s need for safe abortion services will continue as the struggle to secure their rights intensifies. This book is about that struggle during what has evolved, over the last 50 years, to an Age of Unreason.
Abortion in the United States: The Moral and Legal Landscape
by Elyshia Aseltine Sheldon Ekland OlsonThis book explores the seismic shift brought about by the 2022 US Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which dramatically changed the constitutional standing of abortion decisions set in place by Roe v. Wade 50 years earlier. The authors describe the history of US Supreme Court’s decision-making around abortion and some of its attendant considerations, including the constitutional right to privacy, moral obligations to protect life, and determinations about when life begins.When Dobbs was decided, legal control over abortion was returned to the states, resulting in wildly divergent access to abortion across the nation. As important, Dobbs raised a host of additional legal and moral questions that will no doubt be the focus of many future courtroom and legislative debates.This text is designed for undergraduate students across a range of academic disciplines. It lays bare the complicated moral dimensions of the competing arguments about abortion and how these considerations have fared in legal decisions, so students can make sense of them for themselves.
Abortion Stories: American Literature Before Roe v. Wade
by Karen Weingarten Rebecca Traister Renee Bracey ShermanA one-of-a-kind, intersectional volume of abortion representation in American literature before Roe v. Wade that compellingly proclaims: when abortion is illegal, women&’s lives are always more precarious and limited A Penguin ClassicAbortion Stories is the first volume of its kind to bring together a diverse collection of writings on abortion published before 1973, when Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in every American state. These stories, poems, essays, and memoirs reflect a range of representations and responses to abortion during this era, but when read together, they demonstrate how when abortion is illegal, women&’s lives are always more precarious and limited. In this volume, you will read stories that will elucidate and enrich a view of abortion as one element of human experience—woven into stories of love and death and medicine and motherhood and enslavement and emancipation. Featuring luminaries like Langston Hughes, Gwendolyn Brooks, Edgar Allan Poe, Lucile Clifton, Eugene O' Neill, and Shirley Chisholm, as well as rare firsthand accounts of abortion providers and seekers, this reproductive justice-minded collection brings together diverse representations of abortion to show how access to abortion is often race and class dependent, and demonstrates how the repercussions of an illegal abortion also vary depending on such factors. The need and desire to have an abortion goes back centuries, and these literary representations of abortion before Roe compellingly argue for the necessity of legal and accessible abortion. Edited and introduced by Karen Weingarten, Abortion Stories features a foreword by Rebecca Traister and an afterword by Renee Bracey Sherman.
About Commerce: Understanding the Interface of Deal-Making and Relationship Building
by Jean-Claude UsunierThe word &‘commerce&’ is infrequently used in contemporary business speak and, when it is, it is typically as a somewhat archaic synonym for business or trade, or otherwise in the context of &‘e-commerce&’. This book defines commerce by its traditional meaning, as the activity of transaction and exchange, and explores the corresponding interaction of human behaviour and economic interests. This book develops not only an understanding of the ambiguous interface between deals and relationships, but also the skills to manage it according to the situations and contexts in which it arises. The aim is to use advances on the fundamental phenomena of economic exchange (trust, reciprocity, altruism, reputation, etc.) and to apply them to a detailed explanation of the ins and outs of commerce. Of great interest to scholars and students of marketing, organisational behaviour and economics, this book attempts to bring together these advances to focus on the commercial phenomenon and propose a synthetic approach to the exchange relationship.
About Suffering: On Louise Glück (Elements in Poetry and Poetics)
by Christos HadjiyiannisPoetry has always courted suffering. Poets sing their suffering, we've been told, and there can be no poetry without suffering. Louise Glück wasn't too sure about that. Suffering features centrally in her poetry and she discussed its role in poetry in her critical writing, where she often retained the language of poetry as martyrdom. However, she was keen to stress that suffering's part in composition has been misplaced and misunderstood, its function idealised and fetishised. Surveying a wide range of texts about poetry's relationship to suffering, and drawing surprising links between very different voices, this book situates Glück both in the tradition of Rainer Maria Rilke's lyrical suffering and in the tradition of T. S. Eliot's impersonal approach to poetry. Glück's most powerful and characteristic discussion of suffering, it argues, takes place in her 1992 volume, The Wild Iris.

Absolute Essentials of Public Relations (Absolute Essentials of Business and Economics)
by Danny Moss Barbara DesantoAbsolute Essentials of Public Relations offers a valuable quick-start introduction to the many facets and forms of public relations theory and practice. It explores contemporary public relations through multiple lenses by focusing on what public relations essentially comprises, how it has come into existence, what contexts public relations works within, what tools and techniques professionals can deploy, and how professionals assess and justify the outcomes of their work.Divided into two parts – Concepts and Theories, and Applications and Specialisms – the book covers the fundamental theories and concepts and their application in contemporary practice, which together broadly reflect the typical syllabus content for undergraduate, postgraduate, and post-experience introductory courses in public relations. The topics covered in both sections are complemented by mini cases, which showcase academic and professional insights into practice.Offering a concise and approachable alternative to the mainstream, more heavyweight textbooks available, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to public relations theory and practice.
Absolute Ethical Life: Aristotle, Hegel and Marx (Currencies: New Thinking for Financial Times)
by Michael LazarusKarl Marx gave us not just a critique of the political economy of capital but a way of confronting the impoverished ethical quality of life we face under capitalism. Interpreting Marx anew as an ethical thinker, Absolute Ethical Life provides crucial resources for understanding how freedom and rational agency are impacted by a social world formed by value under capitalism, with consequences for philosophy today. Michael Lazarus situates Marx within a shared tradition of ethical inquiry, placing him in close dialogue with Aristotle and Hegel. Lazarus traces the ethical and political dimensions of Marx's work missed by Hannah Arendt and Alasdair MacIntyre, two of the most profound critics of modern politics and ethics. Ultimately, the book claims that Marx's value-form theory is both a continuation of Aristotelian and Hegelian themes and at the same time his most distinctive theoretical achievement. In this normative interpretation of Marx, Lazarus integrates recent moral philosophy with a historically specific analysis of capitalism as a social form of life. He challenges contemporary political and economic theory to insist that any conception of modern life needs to account for capitalism. With a robust critique of capitalism derived from the determinations of what Marx calls the "form of value," Lazarus argues for an ethical life beyond capital.
Absolute Fiction: Idealist Philosophy and British Literature (SUNY series, Studies in the Long Nineteenth Century)
by Justin PrystashExplores the coevolution of Absolute idealist philosophy and British fiction from the Romantic period forward.Absolute Fiction examines the principal form of idealism in the modern period, Absolute idealism, which posits that mind and matter must be understood in relation to all of reality-the universe, the Absolute. This premise was variously articulated by philosophers and writers from Germany, Britain, India, and beyond. Absolute Fiction traces a genealogy from the creative adoption of Hinduism and German Idealism by Coleridge and Carlyle to Aldous Huxley's novelization of Advaita Vedānta. Justin Prystash argues that canonical figures, such as Hegel and George Eliot, as well as overlooked ones, such as May Sinclair and Anukul Chandra Mukerji, found in the Absolute a provocation to account for more and more swaths of reality-accounts that required, at the limits of philosophy, fictional prosthetics. The thematic and formal experimentation of Romanticism, realism, science fiction, horror/weird fiction, and modernism all draw upon Absolute idealism to reconceive subjectivity and ethics. These experiments, far from being antithetical to contemporary literary criticism, reveal it to be more idealist than many would like to acknowledge.
Absolute Freedom: Individuation and Individualization in Second-Late-Modern Societies
by Stefano CarpaniWithin this book, the fields of analytical psychology and sociology combine to examine and explore current social theory and the concept that the author has termed ‘absolute freedom’.This work serves as a vital contribution to contemporary social and psychoanalytic research, unveiling the intricacies of psychological and social dynamics in our current epoch. Stefano Carpani explores the intersection of psychology and sociology, providing a fresh perspective beyond conventional boundaries. It conducts a comparative analysis of C. G. Jung's individuation process and Ulrich Beck's individualization theory, presenting the groundbreaking 'I+I' synthesis. This latter concept acts as a linchpin in deciphering self-identity narratives in the 21st century's dynamic landscape, before the author introduces the concept of absolute freedom, contextualizing it within the multifaceted complexities of contemporary second-late-modern existence.This compelling new book will be of great interest to academics, scholars and students in the fields of analytical psychology, sociology and psychosocial studies.
Absorber Types in Vapour Absorption Refrigeration Systems
by A. Mani Narasimha Reddy SanikommuThis book addresses the increasing energy demand and costs associated with the global refrigeration industry, primarily driven by the need for cooling. It proposes the substitution of vapour compression refrigeration systems (VCRS) with vapour absorption refrigeration systems (VARS), which operate on low-grade, renewable energy sources like solar, geothermal, and waste heat.Focusing on the absorber component of VARS, which plays a critical role in facilitating heat and mass transfer processes, the book provides a comprehensive overview of absorber configurations, including tray, packed bed, falling film, spray, bubble, and membrane absorbers. It offers guidance on selecting the appropriate absorber configuration considering their advantages and limitations in different operating conditions, as well as their numerical, experimental, and performance enhancement studies.The book will interest heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) academic researchers, graduate students, and professionals involved in the advancement of sustainable refrigeration technologies, particularly absorber selection.
Absorption Narratives: Jewishness, Blackness, and Indigeneity in the Cultural Imaginary of the Americas
by Stephanie M. PridgeonIn Absorption Narratives, Stephanie M. Pridgeon explores cultural depictions of Jewishness, Blackness, and Indigeneity within a comparative, inter-American framework. The dynamics of Jewishness interacting with other racial categories differ significantly in Latin America and the Caribbean compared with those in the United States and Canada, largely due to long-standing and often disputed concepts of mestizaje, broadly defined as racial mixture. As a result, a comprehensive understanding of Jewishness and the construction of racial identities requires an exploration of how Jewishness intersects with both Blackness and Indigeneity in the Americas. Absorption Narratives charts the ways in which literary works capture differences and similarities among Black, Jewish, and Indigenous experiences. Through an extensive and diverse examination of fiction, Pridgeon navigates the complex connections of these identity categories, offering a comparative perspective on race and ethnicity across the Americas that destabilizes US-centric critical practices. Revealing the limitations of US-focused models in understanding racial alterity in relation to Jewishness, Absorption Narratives emphasizes the importance of viewing the narrative of race relations in the Americas from a hemispheric standpoint.
Abstract Algebra: An Interactive Approach (Textbooks in Mathematics)
by William PaulsenAbstract Algebra: An Interactive Approach, Third Edition is a new concept in learning modern algebra. Although all the expected topics are covered thoroughly and in the most popular order, the text offers much flexibility. Perhaps more significantly, the book gives professors and students the option of including technology in their courses. Each chapter in the textbook has a corresponding interactive Mathematica notebook and an interactive SageMath workbook that can be used in either the classroom or outside the classroom. Students will be able to visualize the important abstract concepts, such as groups and rings (by displaying multiplication tables), homomorphisms (by showing a line graph between two groups), and permutations. This, in turn, allows the students to learn these difficult concepts much more quickly and obtain a firmer grasp than with a traditional textbook. Thus, the colorful diagrams produced by Mathematica give added value to the students. Teachers can run the Mathematica or SageMath notebooks in the classroom in order to have their students visualize the dynamics of groups and rings. Students have the option of running the notebooks at home, and experiment with different groups or rings. Some of the exercises require technology, but most are of the standard type with various difficulty levels.The third edition is meant to be used in an undergraduate, single-semester course, reducing the breadth of coverage, size, and cost of the previous editions. Additional changes include: Binary operators are now in an independent section. The extended Euclidean algorithm is included. Many more homework problems are added to some sections. Mathematical induction is moved to Section 1.2. Despite the emphasis on additional software, the text is not short on rigor. All of the classical proofs are included, although some of the harder proofs can be shortened by using technology.
Abstract Algebra via Numbers
by Lars TusetThis book is a concise, self-contained treatise on abstract algebra with an introduction to number theory, where students normally encounter rigorous mathematics for the first time. The authors build up things slowly, by explaining the importance of proofs. Number theory with its focus on prime numbers is then bridged via complex numbers and linear algebra, to the standard concepts of a course in abstract algebra, namely groups, representations, rings, and modules. The interplay between these notions becomes evident in the various topics studied. Galois theory connects field extensions with automorphism groups. The group algebra ties group representations with modules over rings, also at the level of induced representations. Quadratic reciprocity occurs in the study of Fourier analysis over finite fields. Jordan decomposition of matrices is obtained by decomposition of modules over PID’s of complex polynomials. This latter example is just one of many stunning generalizations of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, which in its various guises penetrates abstract algebra and figures multiple times in the extensive final chapter on modules.
Abundance: How We Build a Better Future
by Ezra Klein Derek ThompsonA FINANCIAL TIMES TOP PICK OF 2025The real threat to liberal democracy isn't just from autocrats - but from a lack of effective action by so-called progressives.We have the means to build an equitable world without hunger, fuelled by clean energy. Instead, we have a politics driven by scarcity, lives defined by unaffordability and public institutions that no longer deliver on big ideas. It's time for change.Bestselling authors Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson have spent decades analysing the political, economic and cultural forces that have led us here. In this once in a generation intervention, they unpick the barriers to progress and show how we can, and must, shift the political agenda to one that not only protects and preserves, but also builds. From healthcare to housing, infrastructure to innovation thy lay out a path to a futuredefined not by fear, but by abundance.
Abundance
by Ezra Klein Derek ThompsonFrom bestselling authors and journalistic titans Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, Abundance is a once-in-a-generation, paradigm-shifting call to renew a politics of plenty, face up to the failures of liberal governance, and abandon the chosen scarcities that have deformed American life. <p> To trace the history of the twenty-first century so far is to trace a history of unaffordability and shortage. After years of refusing to build sufficient housing, America has a national housing crisis. After years of limiting immigration, we don’t have enough workers. Despite decades of being warned about the consequences of climate change, we haven’t built anything close to the clean-energy infrastructure we need. Ambitious public projects are finished late and over budget—if they are ever finished at all. The crisis that’s clicking into focus now has been building for decades—because we haven’t been building enough. <p> Abundance explains that our problems today are not the results of yesteryear’s villains. Rather, one generation’s solutions have become the next generation’s problems. Rules and regulations designed to solve the problems of the 1970s often prevent urban-density and green-energy projects that would help solve the problems of the 2020s. Laws meant to ensure that government considers the consequences of its actions have made it too difficult for government to act consequentially. In the last few decades, our capacity to see problems has sharpened while our ability to solve them has diminished. Progress requires facing up to the institutions in life that are not working as they need to. It means, for liberals, recognizing when the government is failing. It means, for conservatives, recognizing when the government is needed. <p> In a book exploring how we can move from a liberalism that not only protects and preserves but also builds, Klein and Thompson trace the political, economic, and cultural barriers to progress and propose a path toward a politics of abundance. At a time when movements of scarcity are gaining power in country after country, this is an answer that meets the challenges of the moment while grappling honestly with the fury so many rightfully feel. <b>New York Times Bestseller</b>
