Controlling and Preventing Disease: The Role of Water and Environmental Sanitation Interventions
ISBN: 9780906055908 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Improving health is one of the main goals of water and environmental sanitation (WES) interventions. Despite this, many aid and development workers may have only a limited knowledge of the infections they try to prevent. Although the relevant information does exist, it is often scattered in specialised literature and rarely finds its way into the field. This manual addresses this problem by presenting information on these infections in relation to the interventions that fieldworkers typically control u i.e: water supply, sanitation, drainage, solid waste management, and vector control. It has...

From Industrial Districts to Local Development: An Itinerary of Research
ISBN: 9781843761594 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This text introduces a set of papers representing the main contribution of the "Florence school" to contemporary literature on industrial districts. The authors illustrate that the revitalization of the concept of industrial districts, returning to Alfred Marshall's 19th-century writings, is rooted in an unconventional interpretation of the economic development of Tuscany after World War II. Models of industrial organization and empirical investigation of industrial tendencies are featured, and Alfred Marshall's concepts of the advantages of the geographical agglomeration of specialized small...

Lime and Other Alternative Cements
ISBN: 9781853391781 / Angielski / Miękka / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A cement material, or binder, is an essential ingredient in most forms of building construction. Portland cement has become a widely accepted cementitious material, but it is more expensive than other binders and unsuited to small-scale production. In addition, although it is stronger than most alternatives, there are uses for which alternatives such as lime are more suited. Lime is versatile, durable and suitable for use in complex and intricate decorative and restoration work, as well as in simple buildings. If greater strength is required, a variety of materials known as pozzolanas can be...
