The book covers all the radiation safety aspects while working with unsealed radionuclides. Radiation safety plays a significant role in routine nuclear medicine practices and is necessary to protect occupational workers, patients, members of the general public and the environment. A fair knowledge of radiation safety is expected from all nuclear medicine professionals. Chapters include basics of radiation physics, biological bases of radiation protection, planning and design of nuclear medicine facilities, cyclotron and high dose therapy facilities, radiation safety considerations in nuclear medicine, cyclotron while preparing radiopharmaceuticals. It also includes the working mechanism of radiation detectors, quality assurance of positron emission tomography (PET) and gamma camera, including single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), emergency preparedness plan, nuclear medicine and CT dosimetry, transport regulations, the role of national regulatory authorities and radioactive waste management. The last chapter provides probable model questions asked in the radiological safety officer certification examination and includes 250 multiple-choice questions (MCQs), 100 true or false, 60 fill in the blanks, and 40 match the following questions. The book is written in a simple language for a better understanding of the occupational workers of any grade. It serves as reference material for nuclear medicine professionals on radiation safety, related to planning, quality assurance, dosimetry and various regulations pertaining to nuclear medicine. It is a ready reckoner for the students pursuing a degree/diploma in nuclear medicine and preparing for certification courses in radiation safety to understand the subject matter along with options to attempt practice questions.
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the theoretical tools, real-world applications, policy implications and corner solutions of microeconomics. It offers a discussion of all significant topics including applications and extension of consumer theory, theory of the firm, production, cost and supply, partial and general equilibrium, welfare economics, uncertainty and information, and market imperfections as well as a detailed overview of the theory of games. Apart from all the topics receiving both the algebraic and geometric treatment, the other distinguishing features of the book are an emphasis on policy implications and a full treatment of corner solutions. This latter feature has arisen out of the realization that students easily master interior solutions by memorizing the standard first-order conditions but do not necessarily understand the underlying concepts. Complete with several original algebraic derivations and graphical expositions, this book will serve as an indispensable textbook for students of microeconomics. The book will be useful to students, researchers, and teachers of economics, international economics, industrial economics, managerial economics, and agricultural economics. It will also be a useful reference for those studying public policy and law.
Hinduism; one of the oldest religion on the earth; is an outcome of a continuous process of interaction of time-tested rituals; varied philosophical schools; in-; depth researched scriptures and renowned mythologies.

This book contains detailed information on the types, structure, fabrication, and characterization of organic solar cells (OSCs). It discusses processes to improve efficiencies and the prevention of degradation in OSCs. It compares the cost-effectiveness of OSCs to those based on crystalline silicon and discusses ways to make OSCs more economical. This book provides a practical guide for the fabrication, processing, and characterization of OSCs and paves the way for further development in OSC technology.
This monograph covers uniqueness of micromorphology in resolving many important but enigmatic pedological issues such as clay illuviation, formation of pedogenic and non-pedogenic CaCO3, modification of plasmic fabric, contemporary and relict pedogenic processes, polygenesis of soils in Alfisols, Mollisols, Ultisols, Vertisols and Inceptisols of the tropical Indian environments. Chapters in this title also include identification of paleosols, diagenetic overprinting of the pedofeatures in lithified paleosols, and alluvial cyclicity of the fluvial successions. The techniques mentioned in this title are of tremendous value in pedological and geological research for precise and unambiguous definitions of soil taxa to build the national soil information and refine the stratigraphy of the terrestrial sediments. The information is for the benefit the students and researchers of pedology and geomorphology who often come across extreme difficulties in relating to examples applying the principles of soil formation from textbooks devoted almost exclusively to soils of the temperate climates. The format of this publication is arranged for a process-oriented text and figures on micromorphology of the tropical soils and paleosols as a reference for pedologists, earth scientists, M.Sc. and Ph.D. students, and also for land resource managers who are engaged in enhancing the productivity of such tropical soils in India and elsewhere.

How long will you wait for the love of your life? And how long will you actually endure the pain that comes from waiting for someone for an age? How long will you hold on to the trust in love? And how long will you actually believe in the smiles that love brings in some lonesome dark nights when you are thinking of nothing and nobody but your love! How long will you be able to believe that whatever happens, it happens for good? And how long will you be in a love, that you are not even sure if your loved one loves and cares about you too? Antu is a letter, and much more than a book, from a despaired lover to his love of life, for whom he has waited for an age! He has gone through the pain of numerous attempts of failed proposals, failed words, failed and broken hope and the excruciating pain of slowly letting go of her! He had become a poet in the disguise of a failed lover, and he had become a failed lover in the disguise of an idiosyncrasy of being cared and loved by her! If you too have gone through such things, you may get a connect to this! However, Antu remains an inspiration and an apparition!
Given such problems as rejection, the interface between an implant and its human host is a critical area in biomaterials. Surfaces and Interfaces for Biomaterials summarizes the wealth of research on understanding the surface properties of biomaterials and the way they interact with human tissue. The first part of the book reviews the way biomaterial surfaces form. Part Two then discusses ways of monitoring and characterizing surface structure and behavior. The final two parts of the book look at a range of in vitro and in vivo studies of the complex interactions between biomaterials and the body. Chapters cover such topics as bone and tissue regeneration, the role of interface interactions in biodegradable biomaterials, microbial biofilm formation, vascular tissue engineering and ways of modifying biomaterial surfaces to improve biocompatibility. Surfaces and Interfaces for Biomaterials will be a standard work on how to understand and control surface processes in ensuring biomaterials are used successfully in medicine.
