Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The work 'Sensorics in portraits and expression of lyricism (Russian literature of the 19th century)' presents an actual literary analysis of psychological mastery of Russian writers of the 19th century, shown through the peculiarities of their individual author's sensual worldview. This diversifies the inner world of the characters, as the authors of the works translate to their heroes the predominant properties of 'visualizers, 'hearers', kinesthetes. Thus, an original sensory palette emerges - a kind of 'entrance' into the emotional depths of human nature and unique characters.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -A study aimed at harnessing energy in the treatment of urban waste, using biodigesters to transform sewage into biogas, and fuel cells to transform this gas into electricity, is the main focus of this work. Using the city of Osório/RS as the setting for this event, it is possible to estimate the magnitude of electricity production, within a realistic context, when proposing a type of solution for an urban area. This city already stands out in terms of renewable energy production, as it is home to one of the first and largest wind farms in the Americas. This work also presents some suggestions for ecological solutions to improve care for the environment, as well as some comparisons of possible technologies for sewage treatment. It concludes with an indication of ways forward and the next steps to turn this study into a prosperous reality in building the planet we want to leave to our heirs.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This monograph on the centenary of the Great War of 1914-1918 deals with the participation of African soldiers in this great world conflict, and how this contributed to the redefinition of African borders after the armistice, as well as the political awareness of Africans to assert their culture and political and social identities in the development of the pragmatic lines that later led to colonial independence. E. C. Almeida. In general, Africans have always been (in some cases continue to be) disposable instruments in the hands of the colonizers. Yesterday some, today others. Between slaves, cannon fodder and duly bound volunteers, they were a bit of everything. Often they were everything at the same time. In the First World War, as Eugénio Costa Almeida explains so excellently here, they gave their bodies to the bullets, their souls to the Devil and their dignity to the mass graves.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The aim of this work, 'The hidden curriculum in search of moral judgment competence: a case study', is to analyze the importance of adapting didactic content by including a discussion of the values of moral judgment competence in order to promote the inner growth of the student, in search of consolidating the spirit of co-citizenship. The correlation between the hidden curriculum and the competence of moral judgment, through the discussion of moral dilemmas, presents an alternative pedagogical intervention that culminates in the practice of reflection and the construction of the new man, which is very important for educators when they dedicate themselves to the study of how to transform theory and technique into a praxis that is socially committed. This work is divided into two parts: the first is based on a bibliography to cover the main concepts, and the second consists of a case study to get to know the phenomenon more closely. The aim of this work is to offer the school community a reflection on the hidden curriculum, highlighting the importance of moral dilemmas in the process of producing knowledge and the inner transformation of the student.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Faced with the rapid and constant changes that the market is undergoing, organisations are seeking to remain competitive in the market through indirect pay, which is represented by the various benefits that the company makes available to its employees. In view of this, it can be seen that indirect pay strengthens commitment and satisfies employees, thus creating a better image for the company in the market, as it will arouse interest in qualified professionals and keep existing ones on board. The general aim of this work was to analyse how benefits management is developed through a good rewards policy at Nordeste Gás, in Teresina Piauí. This is an exploratory and descriptive case study in which a quantitative questionnaire was administered to 30 employees, comprising 100% of the organisation's workforce, and a qualitative interview was conducted with the resources manager.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This research is a case study in Vila do Paricatuba, located near the city of Manaus in the state of Amazonas. Its general objective is to apply the use of a biodecomposter as an alternative for the reuse of domestic organic waste in an isolated community, with the following specific objectives: To define the community and the number of families to be affected by the project; To diagnose the socio-economic situation of the families involved in the project; To develop a biodecomposter suitable for the region; To analyze the results in the community following the introduction of the biodecomposter. The theoretical foundation is based on dialectics, divided into three parts. The first deals with composting, the second with solid waste management and the third with environmental education, recognizing three dimensions when analysing, developing or changing waste management: a) the stakeholders; b) the elements or phases of the movement or flow of materials; c) final disposal. The research has an analytical theoretical process and is qualitative documentary. As a result, there was a reduction in organic waste disposed of in the environment, a change in habits and behavior.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The aim of this work is to propose a methodology for the assessment and continuous improvement of sustainability, by combining the tools Sustainability Barometer, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and 5W2H. The central problem is the lack of a methodology to help assess the level of sustainability, prioritize the items assessed and formulate an action plan to help raise the level of sustainability in a given region. The relevance of the study lies in providing the possibility of using a tool aimed at the assessment and continuous improvement of sustainability and in highlighting the possibility of benefits for end users and society, translated into greater efficiency in decision-making.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Inventory management and the Economic Purchase Lot are techniques that enable the market to become increasingly competitive, since companies are constantly looking for alternatives that help reduce the total capital invested, help avoid high costs and prevent a shortage of products to meet customer demand. It is necessary to always pay attention to inventory management, as they are very important assets for any organization, but they can also represent significant costs for any company when poorly managed. The aim of this book is to determine the degree of importance and the impacts caused by the value of the most important items, with a focus on identifying losses, by carrying out an ABC classification directly related to the stock of a pharmacy. Through a case study, it was possible to demonstrate how Inventory Management and the Economic Purchase Lot method are efficient systems, when used correctly in business inventories, since they can help with materials management, demonstrating the importance of inventories in the company.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Wind energy is a renewable energy source that is growing rapidly, due to its contribution to future energy supply, as well as its contribution to climate change mitigation. The use of wind energy in Mozambique represents one of the alternatives for meeting the country's future energy demand, given that there is currently a reduction in electricity production, associated with the decrease in the flow of the Zambezi River, due to the high rate of evapotranspiration induced by climate change (INGC, 2009,pp 18). However, an investigation into wind resources considering climate change is necessary since studies into the impacts of climate change show possible changes in atmospheric circulation patterns and wind energy production in various parts of the world (HARRISON et al.,2008 SAILOR et al., 2008; BRESLOW and SAILOR, 2002). However, the results of simulations of wind fields at 10, 50 and 100 m height show an increase in the density of wind energy in Mozambique for the period 2079-2099, particularly during the winter, over the central and southern regions of the country.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The hospital prescription can be defined as the first stage in the supply of medication to a hospitalised patient, and is part of a process that involves various professionals. It is seen as the first stage in a series of events within the medication procedure, which will result in safe or unsafe administration to the patient. It is considered one of the main sources of unexpected errors in the treatment of hospitalised patients. One development as a result of the digital age is the use of electronic prescribing, which among many functions aims to unify the phases of the medication supply procedure, thus reducing errors in each phase and consequently prescription errors. Electronic prescribing is where the healthcare professional uses software following an established pattern instead of manually writing the prescription on a prescription or model form.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -It is unquestionable that being diagnosed with a chronic illness has many implications. However, the diagnosis of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has a particular impact on the carrier's life and on their relationships with the people who mean the most to them, especially when we consider the stigma associated with it. Contact with these people has made us realize that even when they are hospitalized for hepatitis-related complications, they blame HIV and not Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC). The main psychological implication is anxiety, which was found in all of the subjects, which surprised us given that the literature places depression as the most frequent psychological symptom associated with HIV/AIDS infection, and no similar finding was found in relation to CHC. The qualitative methodology used aimed to give this work an exploratory, descriptive and analytical outline of the experiences and lives of 17 individuals with HIV/AIDS and HCC, to whom we tried to give voice in the expression of their physical, psychological and social suffering.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The natural sciences, due to the characteristics of their objects of study, are integrators of a system of knowledge, skills and forms of teacher performance, which is concretised in the theory-practice relationship. In the teaching-learning process, this relationship is a fundamental didactic principle that should motivate, prepare and finalise theoretical knowledge. It can favour students' environmental education by consciously integrating them into the environment through geographical excursions and field practice, giving them a balanced view that each component has its value, location and appropriate function; and understanding that man is an integral part of the environment and not an isolated component.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book is the result of a survey that aimed to analyse the type of unconditional love defined by John Alan Lee with people who act for the good of others and people who act for themselves. Data was collected from 200 Likert-type questionnaires. The questionnaire consisted of 24 questions designed by Lee to define the type of love and 24 created by the researchers specifically to measure selfish behaviour. The answers were statistically analysed using Pearson's correlation. The data shows that those who practise unconditional love are the same people who act for the good of others in the positive belief that they will receive something in return. On the other hand, people who act in favour of themselves and always expect a short-term return for their actions did not correlate with any of Lee's six types of love. In conclusion, it is necessary for human beings to be helpful and friendly, what common sense calls 'good people', because nobody wants someone close to them who doesn't have these qualities. Individuals who approach others and are perceived as wanting to take advantage, to 'get along', are rejected.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book is born from two perspectives: on the one hand, the desire to be able to offer psychotic listeners a less invasive and more effective treatment for auditory hallucinations. Our aim is to provide readers with a history of psychiatry, its evolution and how some treatments were even cruel. Today, with advances in medication, it is possible to care for a voice hearer in a more humane way with the use of specific medication. However, even with these advances, we know that psychosocial care is just as important as medication. Therefore, we present the results of a group of psychotic voice hearers who benefited greatly from the self-help group. The other perspective has to do with the fact that many people hear voices and are not psychotic. They can live with their voices very well. We believe that the experience of hearing voices and living with them without the use of medication can help us understand how psychotics can find ways to lead their lives productively even when hearing voices. Happy reading.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Urban mobility can be understood as the condition in which individuals move between places in the urban space. At this juncture, mobility needs to accompany the development of cities, with transport accessibility and access for the entire population throughout the urban environment. The growing number of cars and consequent congestion, pollution, traffic accidents and the poor quality of public transport are some of the main factors in the difficulty of having good urban mobility. One alternative for urban mobility is cycling, which is little used, despite being cheap and clean. Its integration with other forms of mass transportation is an innovation in urban mobility and a step towards Brazil's entry into the first world countries. The aim of this work is to analyze urban mobility in the city of Rio de Janeiro, in order to verify cycling as an alternative for urban commuting, pointing out the main benefits and challenges to be overcome. To this end, questionnaires will be used to understand the behavior of Rio's cyclists and materials such as articles, plans and laws.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This work focuses on collecting data on crimes against property, more specifically thefts and robberies committed in the main neighbourhoods of the city of Arcoverde/PE. The general objective is to analyse the incidence of the above-mentioned types of crime in the city of Arcoverde, by producing monthly tables, based on the theories developed by Émile Durkheim and drawing on the experience of an internship at the 156th Civil Police Station, Arcoverde/PE District, and at the Citizenship Observatory. The specific objectives are to conceptualise and discuss the definitions of crime against property, relate Durkheim's theories and questions about crime and social vulnerability to the incidence of theft and robbery and report on the experience, proposing the expansion of the Citizenship Observatory. The concepts of mechanical and organic solidarity, anomie, social fact and collective consciousness were used, as well as texts on violence, crime and social vulnerability. Finally, there is a proposal for a public policy, based on the internship experience report.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This work deals with the literacy of young people and adults with special educational needs, a situation that is close to the hearts of the members of the group and which they consider to be extremely important, due to the fact that, when a single individual has such disadvantages that practically prevent him from being considered a Homo Urbanus, these are : he doesn't have the formal education that would allow him to exercise the vast majority of the best-paid jobs available today, since they all require at least an elementary school education, which is minimum literacy, either in the national language or in mathematics; he often doesn't have full discernment to distinguish the correct from the dubious, the misleading from the true, what will make him better off and what will be mere palliatives for him to achieve a better quality of life; and, finally, they don't have full citizenship even though their body has reached full strength, because they didn't have the necessary discernment at the right age to obtain a school degree that would allow their life, as well as those who accompany them in their family, to be considered dignified and full.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This paper presents an analysis of civil engineering inspection manuals, delimited by Brazilian region, in order to identify their specificities, with a view to making a contribution to professionals who work in the inspection of works and services. The analysis is also relevant due to the instructional nature of the manuals, which are aimed at the construction industry. In order to understand the perspective adopted, after the introductory notions, we begin by dealing with the issue of the text, then move on to the genre, and then talk about intertextuality, given the linguistic view of the object of engineering. We then move on to the analysis itself.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The Digital Age is based on three basic inputs: energy, telecommunications and technology. The Digital Age is the result of technological evolution and the advent of investment in innovation, which is progressing at an accelerated rate every day. The reference source for this technological growth is directly related to investment in innovation, especially in the area of Information and Communication Technology. As a result, factors of production such as the internet, telematics and information technology provide convenience and economic development, and open up obvious opportunities such as e-commerce, electronic mail, social networks, among others. At the same time, it allows for the emergence of opportunism based on the insecurity of the digital environment and the lack of knowledge of information and communication technology users about the resources used. These issues have given rise to questions such as the relevance of assets that are not yet protected by criminal law and the effective ways of bringing the threat to legally protected assets to the attention of the competent court, by evidential means, in the midst of cybercrime.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The 1916 codifier, by breaking with the previous system, eliminating outdated testamentary forms and excessive formalities, created an environment of stability, so that even a hundred years later, when new technologies allow us to discuss, for example, the possibility of making a Will by video to be posted on You Tube, there is no doubt that any innovations in the methods of presenting the testator's last will do not remove the need for it to be reduced to one of the written forms provided for in our legal system.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Problematic questions of internal structure of stars on the example of the Sun and their formation are considered. The Sun consists of two main heliospheres: the inner solid and cold core, composed of rock fragments of silicate composition, adequate to the average composition of meteorites, cemented by ice of hydrogen (predominant), oxygen, nitrogen, CO2 and others. The second heliosphere is represented by silicate melts, it is overlapped by a low-powered photosphere (essentially a boiling layer), quiet in years of a quiet Sun, fragmented when the Sun is active. The molten heliosphere is the main energy source of the Sun and other stars. Thermonuclear reactions in the cores of stars are excluded. All self-luminous cosmic objects were formed as a result of accretion from solid bodies.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This study looks at the damage caused by prohibitionism and the bloody war on drugs, versus the policy of harm reduction, by analyzing the individual drug user and the reasons that led them to come into contact with narcotics. This study will show that drug addiction is currently a social pathology, mainly due to the lack of happiness among people and the search for pleasure at any cost, imposed by a merciless and oppressive consumer society, which imposes unattainable standards and status, which ends up frustrating individuals, who turn to drugs as a means of escape from the oppressive reality. By correlating the effects that drugs have on the rates of violence and crime, it is possible to see the close relationship between them. Drug abuse has an impact on both society and the legal world. Faced with so much damage caused by prohibitionism, alternative control measures are needed, including the models of decriminalization and legalization of drugs.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The spread of drugs is one of the biggest problems facing contemporary humanity. Their use has spread regardless of social class or financial status. Consumption that, at the same time as being related to the increase in fruitless problems such as crime and the proliferation of disease, is often accepted by society. In view of this, Brazilian managers, with the aim of providing the best treatment for the situation and the addict, based on an analysis of the world scenario, have started to look for public policies for this purpose, and consequently, to debate the criminal legislation surrounding the user. Thus, this book is dedicated to analysing the legal framework of the user, and tackles the debates about the (in)constitutionality of the criminal reprimand for the offence of drug possession. It takes an initial look at drugs, explaining everything from their beginnings to their legalisation in some countries. It presents arguments in favour of and against Law 11.343/06, as well as relevant aspects of its article 28, which deals with the typical nature of drug use. Finally, it testifies to relevant points in the votes of the STF ministers in Extraordinary Appeal 635.659.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch.
