Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Electronics is an ever-changing field with an entrepreneurial spirit and a rich history, populated by some of the world's most famous companies and personalities. The Business of Electronics details the field's complex ecosystem in all its trials and tribulations. It looks at companies such as Apple, IBM, Samsung, and Nokia, as well as now-extinct companies such as Honeywell Bull (France) and Sinclair Computers (UK) that contributed to technology and business. Sethi shows us how a handful of US companies led the charge in designing equipment that could make millions of small, reliable components; how Nokia started in the timber business; the history of inventors like J.C. Bose, a pioneer in radio communication (who inadvertently made Guglielmo Marconi famous); and why there are numerous companies and creators that never made it or that we have never heard of. This all-encompassing book not only explores the vibrant history of electronics, it uses case studies to examine the companies and people that made history and explain how we ended up where we are today.

Investing in women livestock advisers and farmers

Jharkhand Opportunities for Harnessing Rural Growth Programme in India

By: Kumar, A., Kumar A., Kumar, M.

Investing in farmers – or agriculture human capital – is crucial to addressing challenges in our agri-food systems. A global study carried out by the FAO Investment Centre and the International Food Policy Research Institute, with support from the CGIAR Research Programme on Policies, Institutions and Markets and the FAO Research and Extension Unit, looks at agriculture human capital investments, from trends to promising initiatives. One of the nine featured case studies is the Jharkhand Opportunities for Harnessing Rural Growth Programme in India. This case explores investment in developing the human capital of women livestock farmers as certified master trainers and community service providers known as Ajeevika Pashu Sakhi (APS). The livestock farmers were strategically identified, trained and coached as APSs to provide doorstep technical, marketing and risk reduction support to women livestock farmers. The APSs were supported by certified master trainers. The APS model enhanced the economic and social well-being of rural poor women working as livestock farmers and APSs. This publication is part of the Country Investment Highlights series under the FAO Investment Centre's Knowledge for Investment (K4I) programme.

This volume contains the proceedings of the Workshop on In stability, Transition and Turbulence, sponsored by the Institute for Computer Applications in Science and Engineering (ICASE) and the NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC), during July 8 to August 2, 1991. This is the second workshop in the series on the subject. The first was held in 1989, and its proceedings were published by Springer-Verlag under the title "Instability and Transition" edited by M. Y. Hussaini and R. G. Voigt. The objectives of these work shops are to i) expose the academic community to current technologically im portant issues of transition and turbulence in shear flows over the entire speed range, ii) acquaint the academic community with the unique combination of theoretical, computational and experimental capabilities at LaRC and foster interaction with these capabilities, and iii) accelerate progress in elucidating the fundamental phenomena of transition and turbulence, leading to improved transition and turbulence modeling in design methodologies. The research areas covered in these proceedings include receptiv ity and roughness, nonlinear theories of transition, numerical simu lation of spatially evolving flows, modelling of transitional and fully turbulent flows as well as some experiments on instability and tran sition. In addition a one-day mini-symposium was held to discuss 1 recent and planned experiments on turbulent flow over a backward facing step.

The Institute for Computer Applications in Science and Engineer ing (ICASE) and NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) brought together on October 2-4, 1989 experts in the various areas of com bustion with a view to expose them to some combustion problems of technological interest to LaRC and possibly foster interaction with the academic community in these research areas. The top ics chosen for this purpose were flame structure, flame stability, flame holding/extinction, chemical kinetics, turbulence-kinetics in teraction, transition to detonation, and reacting free shear layers. The lead paper set the stage by discussing the status and issues of supersonic combustion relevant to scramjet engine. Then the ex perts were called upon i) to review the current status of knowledge in the aforementioned ;:I. reas, ii) to focus on how this knowledge can be extended and applied to high-speed combustion, and iii) to suggest future directions of research in these areas. Each topic was then dealt with in a position paper followed by formal discussion papers and a general discussion involving the participants. The position papers discussed the state-of-the-art with an emphasis on key issues that needed to be resolved in the near future. The discussion papers crit ically examined these issues and filled in any lacunae therein. The edited versions of the general discussions in the form of questions from the audience and answers from the speakers are included wher ever possible to give the reader the flavor of the lively interactions that took place.

Social Disorganisation And Contemporary Social Crisis

By: A. Kumar

Social Disorganization Here May Be Conceived As A Broad, General And All Inclusive Term Tending To Describe Some Of The Consequences That Have Emanated From Planned Development In India. This Social Disorganization Can Further Be Analysed On A Broader Canvas Of Political Disorder, Accentuated By Economic Malfunctioning And Cultural Incohesion Of The Social Structures. The Medieval Society In India Blissfully Clung To The Romanticism Of Ancient Values Of Culture And When Planners Of Democratic Development Suddenly Exposed To It To The So Called Modernity Of The Institutions Of The West, Found Itself In A Quagmire Of Contradictory Goals And Self-Defeating Efforts.The Social And Psychological Ingredients Of What Social Scientists Define As Crisis Exist In The Contemporary Indian Society, E.G. Perceptions Of Generalized Social And Cultural Anomie, An Acute Sense Of Disorientation Both Among The Intelligentsia And The People, Unintended Structural Shifts And Imbalances In Society Rendering Older Paradigms Of National Development Open To Doubts Or Even Total Rejection By Some And The Breakdown In The National Consensus On Social And Cultural Design Of Society. Viewed From All These Perspectives The Present Book Tries To Explore Varied Dimensions Of Present Indian Society.

Tribal Development in India

By: A. Kumar

A Major Hurdle Of Defining A Tribe Is That Related With The Problem Pf Distinguishing The Tribe From Peasantry. Earlier Anthropologists Had Not Paid Sufficient Attention To The Definition Of Tribal Society, But Tacitly Assumed That What They Were Studying In Australia, Melanesia And Africa Were Various Forms Of Tribal Society. Further, Unlike Bailey, The Majority Of Indian Anthropologists Have Not Given Much Serious Thought To The Problem Of Creating A Definition Of Tribal Society Which Will Be Appropriate To The Indian Context.Now Let Us Examine The Problem Specially In The Indian Context. T.B. Naik (1960) Raises The Problem In Proper Perspective By Talking Of The Criteria And Indices Of The Tribal Life In Specifically Indian Setting. What Should Be The Criteria And Indices Of Tribal Life? Living In Forest? Primitive Religion? Geographical Isolation? There Are Hundreds Of Tribal Groups Who Are Not Living An Isolated Life. It Is Hoped That The Book Will Be Of Immernse Importance To Those Dealing With The Subject.

Fundamentals of Environmental Economics

By: A. Kumar

The present book "Fundamentals of Environmental Economics" is an accessible and up-to-date text covering all essential aspects of Environmental Economics. In this book, the readers can realize that, the environmental issues are viewed from an economic perspective, and therefore economic solutions to environmental protection are amply incorporated. The book comprises of fifteen chapters. The presentation of some of the chapters like the Externalities, Market Failure Analysis, Environment Kuznets Curve, Environmental Valuation, Natural Resource Valuation Techniques, Dose-Response Modelling, Cost-Benefit Analysis, Economics of Biodiversity, Global Warming, Acid Rain, Global Environmental Issues, Indian Environmental Challenges etc. is systematic, analytical, simple and lucid. We hope that this book will be of greater use for the students, undergraduate courses, beginning graduate courses in environmental management and researchers to officials and policy makers, interested in improving the environmental quality.
