From The Outside Looking In: Unleashing The Skeletons Of Truth, Justice And Reconciliation In Kenya""This book brings together twenty think-pieces on contemporary Human Rights issues at the international, regional and national level by one of Africa's foremost scholars of International Human Rights and Constitutional Law, J. Oloka-Onyango. Ranging from the 'Arab Spring' to the Right to Education, the collection is both an in-depth analysis of discrete topics as well as a critical reflection on the state of human rights around the world today. Taking up issues such as the African reaction to the International Criminal Court (ICC), the question of truth and reconciliation before the outbreak of post-election violence in Kenya and the links between globalization and racism, the book is a tour de force of issues that are both unique as well as pertinent to human rights struggles around the world.Human rightsInternational lawWorld politicsHuman rightsUgandaElectronic books.Human rights.International law.World politics.Human rights341.481Oloka-Onyango J.866705MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910460586103321Battling over human rights1934657UNINA01006nam 2200373 450 991025142880332120221007135952.0953-51-4791-9953-51-3212-1(CKB)4100000001586742(NjHacI)994100000001586742(EXLCZ)99410000000158674220221007d2017 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCarotenoids /edited by Dragan Cvetkovic, Goran NikolicRijeka, Croatia :IntechOpen,[2017]©20171 online resource (232 pages)953-51-3211-3 CarotenoidsCarotenoids.612.01528Cvetković DraganNikolić Goran1974-NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910251428803321Carotenoids83635UNINA02665nam 2200433 c 450 991048306520332120220915170218.09789811579028981-15-7903-2(CKB)4100000011558539(MiAaPQ)EBC6384519(PPN)252505255(EXLCZ)99410000001155853920210310h20212021 uy 0engtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierA monograph of Paris (Melanthiaceae) morphology, biology, systematics and taxonomy /Yunheng JiSingapore :Springer,[2021]© 20211 online resource (XIII, 203 p. 134 illus., 110 illus. in color.)981-15-7902-4 Preface -- Acknowledgement -- Chapter 1.

Taxonomic revision -- Chapter 7. Conservation status.This book provides essential information on the morphology, biology, phytochemistry, pharmaceutical prospects, evolution, phylogeny, biogeography, and taxonomy of Paris (Melanthiaceae), a morphologically distinctive plant genus with great economic importance. Since the establishment of this genus, 70 species and 24 subspecific taxa have been described, resulting in considerable confusion in species delimitation. In this book, the taxonomy of all described taxa is carefully revised. Based on multi-disciplinary evidences, a revised classification system of Paris containing five sections is outlined. Every species is provided with a concise but diagnostic description, a color illustration, photographs that highlight distinguishing characters, examined specimens and distribution range. The interspecific relationships are clarified with an identification key. This monograph offers taxonomists, evolutionary biologists, ecologists, horticulturalists, phytochemists, and practitioners a thorough and up-to-date overview about this interesting plant group. It is equally valuable for undergraduate and graduate students, teachers and professionals engaged in related fields.PlantsIdentificationMelanthiaceae(IDREF)199622442idrefPlantsMelanthiaceae580.12580Ji Yunheng1214291MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483065203321A monograph of Paris (Melanthiaceae)2804047UNINA
