Sommario/riassunto

"The most complete collection of yoga Asanas ever photographed, and the first-ever to categorize an astonishing 2,100 yoga poses. This beautifully designed book is a must-have for yogis of all levels and every practice. 2,100 Asanas is an unprecedented, meticulously crafted catalog of yoga poses and modifications. It is also a gorgeous work of art, showcasing the beauty and athleticism of the human form. Each photograph features an expert yogi performing the pose to perfection. The aesthetic is clean and modern. The book is organized into eight major types of poses-standing, seated, core, quadruped, backbends, inversions, prone, and supine-and further broken down by families of poses that progress from easiest to more challenging. Every pose is accompanied by the name of the pose in English and Sanskrit, a description of the modification, the Drishti point (eye gaze), the chakras affected and its benefits"--

Sommario/riassunto

C’est un défaut de lecture que ce présent ouvrage s’attache à corriger en adoptant un regard neuf sur un objet terni, jauni par les images successives laissées par les commentaires critiques au fil du temps. Longtemps mise à l’écart de l’histoire littéraire, l’œuvre de Simone de Beauvoir a suscité de nombreux malentendus. Elle a généré des pesanteurs dans l’interprétation de ses textes, déplaçant le centre de gravité d’une pensée et d’une écriture pourtant singulières. Le récit d’enfance et d’adolescence est la première marche du cycle beauvoirien des mémoires. Or relire les Mémoires d’une jeune fille rangée invite à saisir la vitalité d’un vaste continuum de textes empruntant la voie de l’écriture de soi depuis les premiers essais littéraires de Simone de Beauvoir. Ce premier opus n’est pas seulement ancré dans la réalité de son temps. L’œuvre rayonne de part et d’autre de la ligne « classique » de l’autobiographie : elle ouvre sur le monde et sur l’universel

Sommario/riassunto

Catalyst lifetime represents one of the most crucial economic aspects in industrial catalytic processes, due to costly shutdowns, catalyst replacements, and proper disposal of spent materials. Not surprisingly, there is considerable motivation to understand and treat catalyst deactivation, poisoning, and regeneration, which causes this research topic to continue to grow. The complexity of catalyst poisoning obviously increases along with the increasing use of biomass/waste-derived/residual feedstocks and with requirements for cleaner and novel sustainable processes. This book collects 15 research papers providing insights into several scientific and technical aspects of catalyst poisoning and deactivation, proposing more tolerant catalyst formulations, and exploring possible regeneration strategies.
