Fatty acids: chains of 4 – 28 carbon atoms with the carbon chain joined by single or double bonds, depending on the number of hydrogen atoms attached. If a FA contains a double bond, the H atom or other group attached to the carbon atoms involved in the double bond may have different orientation --- as cis or trans forms (isomers).
One of the ideas at the heart of sustainable development is that of ‘capital formation’. In this report, five main forms of capital are discussed: natural, manufactured, human, social, and financial. In theory, determining whether the world is on the path of sustainable development is measured by the net gain or loss in the total of these capital stocks over time.There is as yet no common c…
The earth’s crust consists of a variety of rocks, formed under different circumstances, and with a wide variety of properties. Rocks usually consist of one or more minerals, ranging from single chemical elements to complex compounds. There are known to be more than 3,000 different minerals. Of the 155 known elements, some of which do not occur naturally, oxygen is by far the most common, maki…
CVD Diamond wafers prepared by Microwave Plasma CVD: boron doped disk (blue), optical grade diamond, mechanical grade, unpolished disk. The core competences of Diamond Materials include the manufacturing of high purity CVD diamond disks with properties approaching those of perfect natural diamond crystals.
Diamonds are unquestionably the hardest naturally occurring substance known to man and their unique chemical and atomic structure enables them to last forever. Their extreme hardness gives them a characteristic, perpetual lustre appropriately termed 'adamantine'. Formed under extreme conditions of temperature and pressure as a result of the constant movement and activity of material deep within…
Within the more than 2,000 years of its exploitation, the mine delivered just 130 tons of diamonds. Since diamond-containing rock features only an average of 1/20,000,000 in diamonds, some 3 billion tons of rock, sand and boulders had to be processed in the Kimberley Mine – 1.8 tons for a single ct. Diamond is made of pure carbon (c), same as soot. This means that burned toast chemically equa…
One of the most common questions pet owners ask is how to groom their pets at home and what this involves.

Bioscientific concepts of human diversity and politics of inequality have long been intertwined in efforts to order and classify people. The contributors to this volume critically examine the particular ways in which these concepts are constituted and applied across various national contexts and within different life science disciplines, including genetics, medicine, forensics, anthropology, ep…
City governments have many competing priorities – from the economic to social spheres – and have difficulty in appropriating the right amount of resources to biodiversity conservation. This is largely due to the lack of policy tools that take into account the value of biodiversity and the ecosystem services they provide. Nature is often viewed as an aesthetic luxury that few can afford. How…
The ‘sharing economy’, powered by companies like Airbnb, Uber and Deliveroo, promised to revolutionize the way we work and live. But what changes have come about, and why? This book shows how platform capitalism is not only shaped by business decisions, but is a result of struggles involving social movements, consumer politics and state interventions. It focuses in particular on the controv…

Cucumbers are members of the Cucurbitaceae family, also known as the cucurbits or gourd family (see Figure 1). The group includes crops such as winter and summer squash, watermelon, cantaloupe, pumpkins and gourds. It is believed that cucumbers originated in India over 3,000 years ago and then spread to China, Greece, Italy and North Africa (see Figure 2). By the 9th century, cucumbers were gro…
According to current knowledge, dogs’ visual acuity is assumed to be three to four times worse than that of humans. 1. Dogs see objects closer than 30-50 cm in front of them as blurry, which is why they sniff around when pieces of food are very close to them, for example.2 Dogs perceive movement much better than humans. They can detect small movements even at distances of almost one kilometre…

He focuses on the novel Le Cœur absolu by Philippe Sollers, the poem Todesfuge by Paul Celan, the Preludio e Fugh…
Mediterranean studies flourish in literary and cultural studies, but concepts of the Mediterranean and the theories and methods they use are very disparate. This is because the Mediterranean is not a simple geographical or historical unity, but a multiplicity, a network of highly interconnected elements, each of which is different and individual. Talking about Mediterranean literature raises th…
The volume develops the concepts of the self and its reflexive nature as they are linked to modern thought from Hegel to Luhmann. The moderns are reflexive in a double sense: they create themselves by self-reflexivity and make their world – society – in their own image. That the social world is reflexive means that it is made up of non-subjective (or supra-subjective) communication. The vol…

Whilst happiness usually comes from how we think and feel about our life (eventbased wellbeing), enlightenment is an internal experience not sourced from this process (inner wellbeing). In this volume, we look from a scientific point of view at the different approaches to enlightenment and the practices that trigger it. This includes classical Western approaches to contemplation and aesthetics,…
Individuals’ behaviours at work are known to be shaped by cold, or cognitive-motivational, processes as well as hot, or affect-motivational, processes. To date, employee proactivity research has mainly focused on the ‘cold’ side. But emotion has been proposed to ‘energize’ employees’ proactivity, especially in interdependent and uncertain work environments. In this pioneering work, …

She argues that interpretative methods must be taken more seriously in international law. Readership: Domestic judges, academics working on international law, legal theory, and judicial reasoning, a…
Are judges supposed to be objective? Citizens, scholars, and legal professionals commonly assume that subjectivity and objectivity are opposites, with the corollary that subjectivity is a vice and objectivity is a virtue. These assumptions underlie passionate debates over adherence to original intent and judicial activism. In Common Law Judging, Douglas Edlin challenges these widely held assump…
The notion of "human rights" is widely used in political and moral debates. The core idea, that all human beings have some inalienable basic rights, is appealing and has an important practical function: It allows moral criticism of various wrongs and calls for action in order to prevent them. The articles in this collection take up a tension between the wide political use of human rights claims…
This study offers a critical approach to the connections between the law, politics, and morality as they figure in human rights discourse. It argues that human rights must be understood – ethically, politically, and legally – through the prism of reasonable skepticism towards the legitimacy of contemporary institutions for the protection of human rights. The colonial legacy of human rights,…
There are many reasons why people choose to own a dog. People with dogs and other pets often live longer, healthier lives, with better cardiovascular health, lower blood pressure and lower levels of anxiety, than those without animal companions. Having a dog in the family can help children to develop a sense of responsibility towards other living things as they learn to care for it. Looking aft…
It was in ancient Greek philosophy where the idea arose that there is a supreme law before which any civil law created by human societies has to be justified. Since then the concept of natural law not only remained one of the paradigms of Western civilization but has shaped the development of international legislation in general. The understanding of the significance of the idea of a natural la…

Dogs are “in the moment” creatures. They aren’t thinking about what happened to them this morning or what will happen in the future. Dogs are like sponges. They absorb the world around them. Every experience shapes a future behavior. Simply put, dogs do what works. From the time they are puppies, dogs have learned their behavior has consequences. They learn to repeat behaviors that have d…
Estonia, one of the three Baltic countries, experienced a political and economic reorganization after regaining its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. One of the first priorities of the newly established government was to rebuild a national identity system. As a result, during the 1990s, the legal foundations for the new system were laid out, and both a national identification number s…
Our Earth is the only known planet where water exists in three forms (liquid, gas, solid), and in particular as liquid oceanic water. Due to its high heat capacity, radiative properties (gaseous) and phase changes, the presence of water is largely responsible both for our planet’s mild climate and for the development of land life. The oceans represent 71% of the surface of the planet. They ar…
Over 90,000 animal species have been confirmed in Japan. Despite the country’s small size, some 38 million ha, repeated connections with and separations from the Eurasian Continent, its long, complex terrain stretching from north to south, high precipitation, four distinct seasons, disturbance caused by volcanic eruptions and river flooding, and human activities such as agriculture and forest…
Animals may be used only if the researcher’s best efforts to find a non-animal replacement or a method that does not interfere with the animal (e.g., a non-invasive method such as camera traps, scat collection, or use of tracks) to obtain the required information have failed. Where the use of animals is necessary, consideration must be given to the substitution of non-cephalopod invertebrates…
