The contributors examine varieties of communication during wartime, including the circulation of rumor between Africans and Germans. They also offer new insight into the most famous aspect of the war – the use of medicine which was believed to provide invulnerability.

Book Synopsis The History and Traditions of the Pimbwe by : Seel, Sarah-Jane
Download or read book The History and Traditions of the Pimbwe written by Seel, Sarah-Jane and published by Mkuki na Nyota Publishers. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the history, tradition and culture of a small tribe know as the Pimbwe in Tanzania. It describes the life of the Pimbwe from the pre-colonial era, through the arrival of missionaries, colonisation and post independence, right up to the present day. By reading this book, you will discover the origins of the Pimbwe, their traditions and their culture, which although not differing greatly from those of other African tribes, constitute an intriguing and unique story. In 2008 a group of researchers help a workshop in Mpanda to compile a collection of information and various narrative from Pimbwe elders who maintain and highly honour the Pimbwe communities culture and norms. The researchers subsequently used archival and other published historical materials to ingrate Pimbwe narrative into know historical events. It should be remembered that this book was written with the aim of preserving in written form a history which has been passed down through generations and held in the memories of the elders. It is also hoped that this book will help new generations, particularly of the Pimbwe community, to understand and honour their culture and traditions in a world in which globalisation continuously erodes cultural diversity.

Book excerpt: Some will try to trap her in hopes of harnessing her dark power. Others will seek to end her, deeming it too terrible to risk. In the end, he will destroy them all-because Quinn is his weapon, and he plans to keep it that way. Lazarus was warned that Quinn's power might be too great, even for him, but nothing prepared him for the truth of it until she held a dagger over him, and he was powerless to stop it. Now at odds with himself, the future king of Norcasta must find a way to regain control of his house and secure an alliance with the Pirate Queen...before fate tips its hand once more, and his carefully laid plans are led astray. Quinn's loyalty is not easily won, but Lazarus has managed to do it. Now the vassal and right-hand of Lord Fierté, Quinn seeks to gain him an alliance with Ilvas all the while challenging him at every turn. With the Cisean tribes won over, and the blood heirs behind them, Quinn expects this to be an easy task, but soon finds herself entangled in a web of lies. Forced to gamble with her life-and the lives of her comrades-Quinn must make a choice that will either save or doom them all.

Book Synopsis Rough-Fuzzy Pattern Recognition by : Pradipta Maji
Download or read book Rough-Fuzzy Pattern Recognition written by Pradipta Maji and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to apply rough-fuzzy computing techniques to solve problems in bioinformatics and medical image processing Emphasizing applications in bioinformatics and medical image processing, this text offers a clear framework that enables readers to take advantage of the latest rough-fuzzy computing techniques to build working pattern recognition models. The authors explain step by step how to integrate rough sets with fuzzy sets in order to best manage the uncertainties in mining large data sets. Chapters are logically organized according to the major phases of pattern recognition systems development, making it easier to master such tasks as classification, clustering, and feature selection. Rough-Fuzzy Pattern Recognition examines the important underlying theory as well as algorithms and applications, helping readers see the connections between theory and practice. The first chapter provides an introduction to pattern recognition and data mining, including the key challenges of working with high-dimensional, real-life data sets. Next, the authors explore such topics and issues as: Soft computing in pattern recognition and data mining A mathematical framework for generalized rough sets, incorporating the concept of fuzziness in defining the granules as well as the set Selection of non-redundant and relevant features of real-valued data sets Selection of the minimum set of basis strings with maximum information for amino acid sequence analysis Segmentation of brain MR images for visualization of human tissues Numerous examples and case studies help readers better understand how pattern recognition models are developed and used in practice. This text—covering the latest findings as well as directions for future research—is recommended for both students and practitioners working in systems design, pattern recognition, image analysis, data mining, bioinformatics, soft computing, and computational intelligence.
Download or read book Let's Eat! written by J. Renae Norton and published by Robert Reed Publishers. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maji and Mongo were dogs of the same breed but they were very different, very different indeed! One a sad couch potato, the other a happy playful tornado!When they met, Mongo ate chips and dips, cookies and candy. He didn't even know how great water could taste! But Maji shows him that food from the ground is the best all around and that being healthy and strong can come in handy. Don't miss the fun these two pups have together! Join them and make up your mind to eat clean forever!?The Maji and Mongo books are lifestyle picture books for 3 to 7 year olds that address the issue of outdoor play and clean eating in a way that makes it sound like irresistible fun. They use a rhyming format that children love. The illustrations of Maji and Mongo are adorable and quickly capture the attention and the hearts of children. The books also contain valuable tips for parents who want to help their children be more active and enjoy more wholesome foods.LET'S EAT addresses the importance of drinking water (versus soda), how it gives one energy and vitality. It presents guidelines on how to eat healthy in a fun way, i.e., eating clean, eating organic so you don't have scrambled-up brains, eating foods that came from the ground versus from a bag, avoiding GMOs, pesticides, chemicals, and junk food in general.?Author Dr. J. Renae Norton says, What my research was showing me was that the American food supply is polluted and that many of those suffering from disordered eating, actually suffer from food addictions that are the result of these pollutants. I found an abundance of data available on the role that food additives play in damaging the biological systems that regulate weight. Specifically, the American food supply is polluted by: ? Antibiotics? Artificial growth hormones? High fructose corn syrup? Artificial dyes (made from coal tar and petrochemicals)? Artificial sweeteners derived from chemicals? Synthetically created chemical pesticide and fertilizers? Genetically engineered proteins and ingredients? Sewage sludge? IrradiationThese substances have been shown to be carcinogenic, neurotoxic, obesogenic and addictive, especially for children, whose brains are still developing. As a result, the U.S. is among the top ten fastest countries in the world with the distinction of being number one for having the fattest children. The impact on the health of our nation has already been catastrophic and will get much worse if we do not do something to protect our children. Indeed, U.S. children today will be the first generation in decades to have a shorter life expectancy than that of their parents. The Maji & Mongo book series is an attempt at fighting back, by engaging children and their parents in an entertaining and endearing read that puts across the importance of getting outdoors and eating clean

But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath.
