Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This is the first of its kind study on the socio-economic costs of terrorism on Pakistan¿s exports. Anatomy of social costs incurred by Pakistan during 2006-2009, a period of intensified War on Terror (WOT) in the country is presented. The study highlights terrorist attacks by numbers, type, location, and periodicity, including attacks on schools and internal displacement of the population. The study details the performance of macroeconomic indicators during 2001-09. The impact of WOT on Pakistan¿s exports is analyzed within an interlinked and interdependent framework that identifies various transmission mechanism of production and non-production cost increases in the export cycle. Finally, loss in export earnings due to terrorist attacks is quantified using single-equation econometric estimation techniques namely regression and vector error correction models. During 2006-2008, Pakistan lost export earnings in the range of 29.1-36.2 billion dollars due to its¿ falling share in the world markets. Part of this loss is explained by WOT, as modeling exercise yields 20.4 billion dollars amounting to half to two-thirds of Pakistan¿s overall losses in exports.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -As our world is an ecosystem, each one of us is an entire ecosystem itself. We are living creatures, with a miniature world living inside us. This miniature world is the bacterial underworld curently called the microbiota. The environmemnt that surronds us is populated with bacteria. They can invade our organism and can produce toxins causing disease.Concerning the origins and nature of infection two main theories stand in opposition: Béchamp's microzymian principle and Pasteur's germ theory. In the meanwhile, the search and experiences of Samuel Hahnemann created a new medicine that respects the microbiota and also increases the main defense mechanisms against pathogenic germs.The supression of acute infections by a less rational use of antibiotics may have given rise to the present epidemic of chronic diseases. Several other non infectious diseases may result from wiping out bacteria causing a microbiota inbalance.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -There is no universal Roma music in the world. In Finland, the traditional music of Finnish Roma can easily be recognised both via repertoire and interpretation style that differs from non-Romani performances. Music has always played a central role in the cultural heritage of the Finnish Romani population. Singing has been important to Roma, especially since a great number of people were illiterate and the oral song tradition was the only way of preserving the old stories and passing them on to generations to come. The starting point for this book is to introduce the traditional songs of the Finnish Roma. This study is rooted in my long-term interest in the music of the Roma people. Twenty five years will have soon passed since my first fieldwork on Finnish Romani music and musical culture. My occasional work with Romani artists working in Finnish popular music has also enriched not only my personal musical identity but also my understanding of the multiple meanings of Finnish Romani music.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Degradation of soils¿ physical, chemical and biological properties in sub-Saharan Africa has been caused by continuous or intensive farming with little or no organic resource application coupled with sub-optimal fertilizer application. With the increasing pressure on arable land due to population increase, nutrient management in conventional way is a challenging task, a situation worsen by the unaffordability of commercially produced inorganic fertilizer. In addition, materials that could provide alternative sources of nutrients such as crop residues are either of low quality to meet crop nutrient demand and/or are scarce and often have multiple uses such as fodder and fuel. Therefore, Ecological Sanitation (EcoSan) promotes recycling of nutrients contained in excreta to grow crops and fruits thus enhancing food security and reducing the need to rely on inorganic fertilizer. Human excreta contain nutrients suitable for agriculture such as nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.
