Book excerpt: 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.
Download or read book Dakṣiṇa Kosala written by Natasja Bosma and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the early development of Śaivism in ancient Dakṣiṇa Kosala, the region that roughly corresponds to the modern state of Chhattisgarh, plus the districts of Sambalpur, Balangir and Kalahandi of Odhisha (formerly Orissa). At the end of the sixth and the beginning of the seventh century, this region was under the control of the Pāṇḍava king Śivagupta alias ‘Bālārjuna’ hailing from Śrīpura (the modern village of Sirpur), who was a great patron of religion. Epigraphical evidence, supported by archaeological remains, has shown that by the time of Śivagupta’s reign, which lasted for at least fifty-seven years, Dakṣiṇa Kosala was already a rich center of early Śaivism. In the context of this setting the following research questions were formulated: what circumstances fostered the rise and development of Śaivism in this area, and did the Skandapurāṇa, an important and contemporaneous religious scripture, play any role in that development? An answer to these questions would not only shed light on the religious processes at work in Dakṣiṇa Kosala, but would also touch upon the interplay of political, social, economic and geographical factors.
Book Synopsis The Many Faces of the Goddess by : Izak Cornelius

Book excerpt: There are a multitude of female figures represented in the art of the ancient Near East and it has often been proved difficult to differentiate them. This study presents a collection of visual source material on godesses from Egypt, Ugarit, Syria and Palestine from c,1500 to 1000 BC. An introduction to the subject and previous research precedes a discussion of iconographic types (armed, seated, standing, equestrian and named women holding objects) and media (including reliefs, seals and amulets, bronze figurines, ivories and ostraca). Cornelius devises a typology of attributes for the goddess Anat, Astarte, Qedeshet and Asherah in order to define their individual qualities and provide a means by which these goddesses can be differentiated. Includes a large descriptive catalogue.

Book Synopsis Telling Migrant Stories by : Esteban E. Loustaunau
Download or read book Telling Migrant Stories written by Esteban E. Loustaunau and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the media, migrants are often portrayed as criminals; they are frequently dehumanized, marginalized, and unable to share their experiences. Telling Migrant Stories explores how contemporary documentary film gives voice to Latin American immigrants whose stories would not otherwise be heard. The essays in the first part of the volume consider the documentary as a medium for Latin American immigrants to share their thoughts and experiences on migration, border crossings, displacement, and identity. Contributors analyze films including Harvest of Empire, Sin país, The Vigil, De nadie, Operation Peter Pan: Flying Back to Cuba, Abuelos, La Churona, and Which Way Home, as well as internet documentaries distributed via platforms such as Vimeo and YouTube. They examine the ways these films highlight the individual agency of immigrants as well as the global systemic conditions that lead to mass migrations from Latin American countries to the United States and Europe. The second part of the volume features transcribed interviews with documentary filmmakers, including Luis Argueta, Jenny Alexander, Tin Dirdamal, Heidi Hassan, and María Cristina Carrillo Espinosa. They discuss the issues surrounding migration, challenges they faced in the filmmaking process, the impact their films have had, and their opinions on documentary film as a force of social change. They emphasize that because the genre is grounded in fact rather than fiction, it has the ability to profoundly impact audiences in a way narrative films cannot. Documentaries prompt viewers to recognize the many worlds migrants depart from, to become immersed in the struggles portrayed, and to consider the stories of immigrants with compassion and solidarity.

Download or read book Indus Script written by S. Kalyanaraman and published by . This book was released on 2014-08-26 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who were the ancient people who created the script and what purpose did it serve? 1. The creators of the script are Meluhhans, ancestors of present-day people of India. 2. The script catalogs Bronze Age metalwork and trade. 3. Indus Script inscriptions are the earliest examples of use of catalogs in civilizational history in Eurasia necessitated by metalwork in great demand during those times, about 5,600 years before present (BP). The book announces a decipherment of Indus Script based on detailed transcription, reading and translation of about 2000 inscriptions. It reports a discovery that the writing system relates to metalwork and trade by Sarasvati Sindhu (Hindu) civilization artisans of Ancient India. The work is a tribute to the ancient metalworking artisans of India of 4th millennium BCE, who invented an early writing system of mlecchita vikalpa, now called Indus Script. Mlecchita vikalpa was listed as one of 64 arts and a part of the educational curriculum of Ancient India. The book is a narrative of metallurgical technologies in Ancient India during the Bronze Age, an evolution of 'coppersmiths' (cimara) into 'lost wax casting' smiths (dhokra) working with a variety of alloys. Meluhha hieroglyphs document Bronze Age trade on Tin Road from Malhar, Uttar Pradesh, India to Haifa, an ancient port of Israel. The script transcribes Proto-Indian speech of Meluhha (mleccha) language glosses. Rebus cipher -- homonymous glosses of Meluhha -- provide plaintext readings of hieroglyphs and prove that ciphertext rebus renderings detail traded resources and processes of Bronze Age, mostly stone, mineral, metal and alloyed artifacts as catalogs in Meluhha language. Meluhha lapidaries who worked with shells, carnelian or agate or lapis lazuli to create drilled beads could do metalwok smelting other metallic stones which were mineral ores and metallic compounds. Bronze Age necessitated a writing system to document the quantum leap in technological complexity of casting techniques using metallic stones, in smelters, to produce new resources of metalware, ingots, and hard alloys of copper, tin, zinc, arsenical bronze, tin bronze, brass, pewter, iron, lead, gold or silver. One such alloy was documented in a hieroglyph composition and Meluhha cipher using a backbone-spine metaphor. A remarkable semantic unity among present-day Indian languages is established traceable to the days of Sarasvati Sindhu (Hindu) civilization ca 4th millennium BCE. Many glosses identified by the deciphered Meluhha Indus Script hieroglyphs are demonstrated in the lexical repertoire of all Indian languages validating a hypothesis that Meluhha-Mleccha was the fountain-spring of Indian sprachbund and a veritable parole, lingua franca of the nation founded by the organized brilliance of the Bronze Age experts like smelters, artisans - metal- and stone-workers, stone-cutters, inventors of new metal alloys, cire perdue casting experts, and traders. This semantic unity of Indian sprachbund from Bronze Age days, explains why anyone of the present-day glosses from any one of the Indian languages adequately explains and validates Meluhha rebus cipher. Two contentious academic debates on identities of Meluhha speakers and details of language spoken by ancient artisans and traders providing the foundation of Indian sprachbund are resolved: 1.Meluhha speakers were Bronze Age artisans whose products were traded in Ancient Near East and Fertile crescent. They are exemplified by later-day legatees called Asur of Chattisgarh and Assur of Ancient Near East. 2. Meluhha language was the lingua franca of ancient India. Vedic was a version of this language in poetic diction called chandas of Indian sprachbund. Thus, the roots for hundreds of glosses of present-day languages of India of over one billion people are traced back in millennia to rebus ciphertexts of Meluhha hieroglyphs as trade documents of Bronze Age-calling cards of seafaring artisans (on sangada).
