Perhaps not a description many would choose for hydrogen peroxide, but an accurate one none the less, and this unique book explains the reasons behind the description. Beginning with an historical overview, and guidelines for the safe handling of peroxygens, Applications of Hydrogen Peroxide and Derivatives goes on to cover key activation mechanisms, organic functional group oxidations and the use of hydrogen peroxide with heterogeneous catalysts. The clean-up of environmental pollutants; chemical purification; and extraction of metals from their ores are alsRSC Clean Technology MonographsHydrogen peroxideElectronic books.Hydrogen peroxide.546.2Jones Craig W958971MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910449983403321Applications of hydrogen peroxide and derivatives2172669UNINA04510nam 2200757Ia 450 991052875400332120241015154548.00-8014-5850-110.1515/9780801458507(CKB)2670000000080925(EBL)3138031(SSID)ssj0000483259(PQKBManifestationID)11306164(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000483259(PQKBWorkID)10529101(PQKB)11517665(OCoLC)967539806(MdBmJHUP)muse28757(Au-PeEL)EBL3138031(CaPaEBR)ebr10457653(OCoLC)726824296(DE-B1597)545746(DE-B1597)9780801458507(OCoLC)1262307743(MiAaPQ)EBC3138031(EXLCZ)99267000000008092520090421d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrChanging the course of AIDS peer education in South Africa and its lessons for the global crisis /David Dickinson ; foreword by Charles Deutsch1st ed.Ithaca ILR Press2009Ithaca, NY : Cornell University Press, [2011]©20111 online resource (272 p.)The culture and politics of health care workDescription based upon print version of record.0-8014-4831-X Includes bibliographical references and index."Empowered with information I have influenced a lot of people" : the quest for behavioral change -- "People are dying, but they don't listen when we tell them" : the corporate response to HIV/AIDS in South Africa -- "For the love of people" : peer education as a response from below -- Backstage social divisions -- Slipping out of order -- To speak with one voice -- Social space, leadership, and action : peer education and behavioral change.Changing the Course of AIDS is an in-depth evaluation of a new and exciting way to create the kind of much-needed behavioral change that could affect the course of the global health crisis of HIV/AIDS. This case study from the South African HIV/AIDS epidemic demonstrates that regular workers serving as peer educators can be as—or even more—effective agents of behavioral change than experts who lecture about the facts and so-called appropriate health care behavior.After spending six years researching the response of large South African companies to the epidemic that is decimating their workforce as well as South African communities, David Dickinson describes the promise of this grassroots intervention—workers educating one another in the workplace and community—and the limitations of traditional top-down strategies. Dickinson's book takes us right into the South African workplace to show how effective and yet enormously complex peer education really is. We see what it means when workers directly tackle the kinds of sexual, gender, religious, ethnic, and broader social and political taboos that make behavior change so difficult, particularly when that behavior involves sex and sexuality.Dickinson's findings show that people who are not officially health care experts or even health care workers can be skilled and effective educators. In this book we see why peer education has so much to offer societies grappling with the HIV/AIDS epidemic and why those interested in changing behaviors to ameliorate other health problems like obesity, alcoholism, and substance abuse have so much to learn from the South African example.Culture and politics of health care work.AIDS (Disease)South AfricaPeer counselingSouth AfricaChange (Psychology)Health aspectsSouth AfricaOccupational health servicesSouth AfricaHealth educationSouth AfricaAIDS (Disease)Peer counselingChange (Psychology)Health aspectsOccupational health servicesHealth education362.196/979200968Dickinson David1963-1158723Deutsch Charles1776812Deutsch Charles, MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910528754003321Changing the course of AIDS4295891UNINA03186nam 22005535 450 991048378910332120251202170528.03-030-17840-410.1007/978-3-030-17840-6(CKB)4100000007938140(MiAaPQ)EBC5755030(DE-He213)978-3-030-17840-6(PPN)243770472(EXLCZ)99410000000793814020190415d2020 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierReconfigurable Cellular Neural Networks and Their Applications /by Müştak E. Yalçın, Tuba Ayhan, Ramazan Yeniçeri1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2020.1 online resource (79 pages)SpringerBriefs in Nonlinear Circuits,2520-14413-030-17839-0 Introduction -- Artificial Neural Network Models -- Artificial Olfaction System -- Implementations of CNNs -- Index.This book explores how neural networks can be designed to analyze sensory data in a way that mimics natural systems. It introduces readers to the cellular neural network (CNN) and formulates it to match the behavior of the Wilson–Cowan model. In turn, two properties that are vital in nature are added to the CNN to help it more accurately deliver mimetic behavior: randomness of connection, and the presence of different dynamics (excitatory and inhibitory) within the same network. It uses an ID matrix to determine the location of excitatory and inhibitory neurons, and to reconfigure the network to optimize its topology. The book demonstrates that reconfiguring a single-layer CNN is an easier and more flexible solution than the procedure required in a multilayer CNN, in which excitatory and inhibitory neurons are separate, and that the key CNN criteria of a spatially invariant template and local coupling are fulfilled. In closing, the application of the authors’ neuron population model as a feature extractor is exemplified using odor and electroencephalogram classification.SpringerBriefs in Nonlinear Circuits,2520-1441Computational intelligenceArtificial intelligenceElectronic circuitsComputational IntelligenceArtificial IntelligenceElectronic Circuits and SystemsComputational intelligence.Artificial intelligence.Electronic circuits.Computational Intelligence.Artificial Intelligence.Electronic Circuits and Systems.006.32Yalçın Müştak Eauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut515714Ayhan Tubaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autYeniçeri Ramazanauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910483789103321Reconfigurable Cellular Neural Networks and Their Applications2844595UNINA
