Physical Appearance Stigma and Social Behavior The Ontario Symposium Volume 3

Physical Appearance Stigma and Social Behavior The Ontario Symposium Volume 3

Originally published in 1986 this book grew out of a symposium held in 1981 at the University of Toronto on physical appearance as a determinant of personality and social behavior. There is little doubt that one’s appearance has some impact on the way one is perceived and treated; and presumably owing to the socially reflected nature of the self one’s personality likewise will be affected by one’s appearance. The questions arising from these basic observations and assumptions are many and the expert contributors were invited to discuss their research on some of the implications of individual differences in appearance as they ramify into personality and social interaction. The chapters in this volume are the outcome of those discussions and cover the areas of facial attractiveness; physique; impact on social behavior and deviance. Still a topic of interest to this day this book can now be read and enjoyed in its historical context. | Physical Appearance Stigma and Social Behavior The Ontario Symposium Volume 3

The Condition of Democracy Volumes 1 2 3

The Condition of Democracy Volumes 1 2 3

Recent years have seen contestations of democracy all around the globe. Democracy is challenged as a political as well as a normative term and as a form of governance. Against the background of neoliberal transformation populist mobilization and xenophobic exclusion but also of radical and emancipatory democratic projects this collection offers a variety of critical and challenging perspectives on the condition of democracy in the 21st Century. The volumes provide theoretical and empirical enquiries into the meaning and practice of liberal democracy the erosion of democratic institutions and the consequences for citizenship and everyday lives. With a pronounced focus on national and transnational politics and processes as well as postcolonial and settler-colonial contexts individual contributions scrutinize the role of democratic societies ideals and ideologies of liberal democracy within global power geometries. By employing the multiple meanings of The Condition of Democracy the collection addresses the preconditions of democratic rule the state this form of governance is in and the changing ways in which citizens can (still) act as the sovereign in liberal democratic societies. The books offer both challenging theoretical perspectives and rigorous empirical findings of how to conceive of democracy in our times which will appeal to academics and students in social and political science economics and international relations amongst other fields. The focus on developments in the Middle East and North Africa will furthermore be of great usefulness to academics and the wider public interested in the repercussions of western democracy promotion as well as in contemporary struggles for democratization ‘from below’. | The Condition of Democracy Volumes 1 2 3

Modern Permanent Magnet Electric Machines Theory and Control

Modern Permanent Magnet Electric Machines Theory and Control

The late 1980s saw the beginning of the PM brushless machine era with the invention of high-energy density permanent magnets (PM) and the development of power electronics. Although induction motors are now the most popular electric motors the impact of PM brushless machines on electromechanical drives is significant. Today PM machines come second to induction machines. Replacement of electromagnetic field excitation systems by PMs brings the following benefits: No electrical energy is absorbed by the field excitation system and thus there are no excitation losses causing substantial increase in efficiency Higher power density (kW/kg) and/or torque density (Nm/kg) than electromagnetic excitation Better dynamic performance than motors with electromagnetic excitation (higher magnetic flux density in the air gap) Simplification of construction and maintenance Less expensive for some types of machines Modern Permanent Magnet Electric Machines: Theory and Control serves as a textbook for undergraduate power engineering students who want to supplement and expand their knowledge in the fundamentals of magnetism soft magnetic materials permanent magnets (PMs) calculation of magnetic circuits with PMs modern PM brushed DC machines and their controls modern PM brushless DC motors and drive control and modern PM generators. The book can help students learn more about electrical machines and can serve as a prescribed text for teaching elective undergraduate courses such as modern permanent magnet electrical machines. Since the book is written in a simple scientific language and without redundant mathematics it can also be used by practicing engineers and managers employed in electrical machinery or electromagnetic device industries. | Modern Permanent Magnet Electric Machines Theory and Control

Options for Wastewater Management in Harare Zimbabwe

Options for Wastewater Management in Harare Zimbabwe

The sustainable management of waste water should aim at pollution prevention and reduction first followed by resource recovery and reuse. This work shows that substantial water quality improvements could be achieved through a so-called 3-Step Strategic Approach. The frameworks developed in this research for managing water on-site and at centralized and de-centralized levels can be used in re-designing current systems or designing new systems that make optimal use of wastewater components whilst minimising pollution. | Options for Wastewater Management in Harare Zimbabwe
