Endnotes.This book traces the contours of the symbiotic relationship between crop cultivation and cattle rearing in India by reading against the grain of several official accounts from the late colonial period to the 1980s. It also skillfully unpacks the multiple cultural expressions that revolve around cattle in India and the wider subcontinent to show how this domestic animal has greatly impacted political discourses in South Asia from colonial times, into the postcolonial period. The author begins by demonstrating the dependence between the nomadic cattle breeder and the settled cultivator, at the nexus of land-livestock-agriculture, as indicated in the writings of Sir Albert Howard, who espoused some of the most sophisticated ideas on integration, holism, and mixed farming in an era when agricultural research was marked by increasing specialisation and compartmentalisation. The book springboards with the views of colonial experts who worked at imperial science institutions but passionately voiced dissenting opinions due to their emotional investment in the lives of Indian peasants, of whom Howard was a leading light. The book presents Howard and his contemporaries’ writings to then engage contemporary debates surrounding organic agriculture and climate change, tracing the path out of the treadmill of industrial agriculture and factory farming. In doing so, the book shows how, historically, animal rearing has been critically linked to livelihood strategies in the Indian subcontinent. At once a dispassionate reflection on the role played by cattle and water buffaloes in not just supporting farm operations in the agro-pastoral landscape, but also in contributing to millions of livelihoods in sustainable ways while fulfilling the animal protein in the Indian diet, the book presents contemporary lessons on development perspectives relating to sustainable and holistic agriculture. A rich and sweeping treatment of this aspect of environmental history in India that tackles the transformations prompted by the arrival of veterinary medicine, veterinary education and notions of scientific livestock management, the book is a rare read for historians, environmentalists, agriculturalists, development practitioners, and animal studies scholars with a particular interest in South Asia.Asia in Transition,2364-8260 ;27AsiaHistoryAnimal welfareMoral and ethical aspectsPhilosophyPostcolonialismAgricultureApplied ethicsImperialismAnimal cultureHistory of South AsiaAnimal EthicsPostcolonial PhilosophyAgricultural EthicsImperialism and ColonialismAnimal ScienceAsiaHistory.Animal welfareMoral and ethical aspects.Philosophy.Postcolonialism.Agriculture.Applied ethics.Imperialism.Animal culture.History of South Asia.Animal Ethics.Postcolonial Philosophy.Agricultural Ethics.Imperialism and Colonialism.Animal Science.338.176200954Upadhyaya Himanshu1763286MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910874675303321Critical Insights on Colonial Modes of Seeing Cattle in India (1850–1980)4246385UNINA03958nam 22007093 450 991100928920332120240905204137.097815443202981544320299978154432026715443202649781544320274154432027297815443202811544320280(CKB)4900000001420353(MiAaPQ)EBC7106459(Au-PeEL)EBL7106459(MiAaPQ)EBC31340862(Au-PeEL)EBL31340862(MiAaPQ)EBC31340861(Au-PeEL)EBL31340861(MiAaPQ)EBC31806354(Au-PeEL)EBL31806354(OCoLC)1435752811(OCoLC)1028828048(OCoLC)1420382159(CaToSAGE)SAGE000019338(EXLCZ)99490000000142035320240905h20182018 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierChange and Continuity in the 2016 Elections /John Aldrich [and three others]First edition.Thousand Oaks, California :CQ Press, an Imprint of SAGE Publications, Inc.,2018.©20181 online resource (449 pages)Includes index.9781544320250 1544320256 Includes bibliographical references and index.CHANGE AND CONTINUITY IN THE 2016 ELECTIONS- FRONT COVER -- CHANGE AND CONTINUITY IN THE 2016 ELECTIONS -- COPYRIGHT -- CONTENTS -- TABLES AND FIGURES -- PREFACE -- ABOUT THE AUTHORS -- INTRODUCTION -- CHAPTER 1- THE NOMINATION STRUGGLE -- CHAPTER 2- THE GENERAL ELECTION CAMPAIGN -- CHAPTER 3- THE ELECTION RESULTS -- CHAPTER 4- WHO VOTED? -- CHAPTER 5- SOCIAL FORCES AND THE VOTE -- CHAPTER 6- CANDIDATES, ISSUES, AND THE VOTE -- CHAPTER 7- PRESIDENTIAL PERFORMANCE AND CANDIDATE CHOICE -- CHAPTER 8- PARTY LOYALTIES, POLICY PREFERENCES, AND THE VOTE -- CHAPTER 9- CANDIDATES AND OUTCOMES IN 2016 -- CHAPTER 10- THE CONGRESSIONAL ELECTORATE IN 2016 -- CHAPTER 11- THE 2016 ELECTIONS AND THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN POLITICS -- APPENDIX -- NOTES -- INDEX.Is America in the midst of an electoral transformation? What were the sources of Trump's victory in 2016, and how do they differ from Republican coalitions of the past? Does his victory signal a long-term positive trajectory for Republicans' chances in presidential elections? Change and Continuity in the 2016 Elections attempts to answer those questions by analyzing and explaining the voting behavior in the most recent election, as well as setting the results in the context of larger trends and patterns in elections studies. New co-author Jamie L. Carson brings years of congressional and election research experience to help this top-notch author team meticulously explain the latest National Election Studies data and discuss its importance and impact. You will critically analyze a variety of variables such as the presidential and congressional elections, voter turnout, and the social forces, party loyalties, and prominent issues that affect voting behavior. You will also walk away with a better understanding of this groundbreaking election and what those results mean for the future of American politics.PresidentsUnited StatesElection2016Political campaignsUnited States21st centuryPresidentsElectionPolitical campaigns324.9730932Aldrich John1824-1825800Carson Jamie L.Gomez Brad T.1970-Rohde David W.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911009289203321Change and Continuity in the 2016 Elections4393707UNINA04905nam 22007573u 450 991100680070332120230802010950.09780486134673048613467997816219863791621986373(CKB)2550000001186543(EBL)1894797(SSID)ssj0001002767(PQKBManifestationID)12452366(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001002767(PQKBWorkID)11014377(PQKB)10941187(MiAaPQ)EBC1894797(Au-PeEL)EBL1894797(CaONFJC)MIL565914(OCoLC)868272636(Perlego)110842(EXLCZ)99255000000118654320141222d2012|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrPrinciples of Electrodynamics1st ed.Newburyport Dover Publications20121 online resource (610 p.)Dover Books on PhysicsDescription based upon print version of record.9780486654935 0486654931 9781306346634 1306346630 2 - Principles of Electrostatics2-1 INTRODUCTION; COULOMB'S LAW; 2-2 THE DIVERGENCE OF E; GAUSS' LAW; 2-3 A FEW WORDS ABOUT MATERIALS; CONDUCTORS; 2-4 THE CONSERVATIVE NATURE OF ELECTROSTATICS; POTENTIAL; 2-5 SOME IMPORTANT THEOREMS ABOUT POTENTIAL FUNCTIONS; BOUNDARY CONDITIONS AND UNIQUENESS; 2-6 ELECTRIC DIPOLE MOMENT; POLARIZATION; DISPLACEMENT FIELD; 2-7 THE ENERGY OF A CHARGE DISTRIBUTION; 2-8 THE GENERAL THEORY OF CAPACITANCE; 2-9 CYLINDRICAL AND SPHERICAL COORDINATES; 2-10 SOLVING LAPLACE'S EQUATION IN CARTESIAN COORDINATES2-11 SOLVING LAPLACE'S EQUATION IN CYLINDRICAL COORDINATES2-12 THE SOLUTION TO LAPLACE'S EQUATION IN SPHERICAL COORDINATES; 2-13 SOLVING BOUNDARY-VALUE PROBLEMS IN SPHERICAL COORDINATES WITH AZIMUTHAL SYMMETRY; 2-14 THE MULTIPOLE EXPANSION OF AN AZIMUTHALLY SYMMETRICAL CHARGE DISTRIBUTION; 2-15 THE INTERACTION ENERGY OF TWO NONOVERLAPPING AZIMUTHALLY SYMMETRIC CHARGE DISTRIBUTIONS; DETERMINATION OF NUCLEAR SHAPE; 2-16 THE ELECTROSTATIC STRESS TENSOR; 3 - Electromagnetism and Its Relation to Relativity; 3-1 INTRODUCTION; THE MICHELSON-MORLEY EXPERIMENT; 3-2 THE LORENTZ TRANSFORMATION3-3 CHARGE DENSITY AND CURRENT DENSITY AS COMPONENTS OF A FOUR-VECTOR3-4 THERE MUST BE A "MAGNETIC FIELD"| (THE REQUIREMENT OF LORENTZ INVARIANCE IMPLIES A VECTOR POTENTIAL); 3-5 THE ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS AS ELEMENTS OF A SECOND-RANK TENSOR; 3-6 MAXWELL'S EQUATIONS; 4 - Time-Independent Current Distributions; Magnetostatics; 4-1 AN ELEMENTARY DERIVATION OF OHM'S LAW; 4-2 FINDING THE MAGNETIC FIELD THROUGH THE VECTOR POTENTIAL; 4-3 THE BIOT-SAVART LAW; 4-4 AMPERE'S LAW; 4-5 B AS THE GRADIENT OF A POTENTIAL FUNCTION; 4-6 MAGNETIZATION (M) AND THE H FIELD4-7 THE ENERGY OF A STATIC CURRENT DISTRIBUTION FORCE AND TORQUE ON A MAGNETIC DIPOLE; 4-8 THE MOTION OF A CHARGED PARTICLE IN A CONSTANT MAGNETIC FIELD; 4-9 THE MOTION OF A CHARGED PARTICLE IN CROSSED ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS; 4-10 LARMOR PRECESSION IN A MAGNETIC FIELD; 4-11 A METHOD OF MEASURING g - 2; 4-12 THE MAGNETIC STRESS TENSOR; 5 - The Variation of the Electromagnetic Field with Time: Faraday's Law, Displacement Currents, the Retarded Potential; 5-1 FARADAY'S LAW; 5-2 THE CONSERVATION OF ENERGY; THE POYNTING VECTOR; 5-3 MOMENTUM CONSERVATION IN ELECTROMAGNETISM5-4 ELECTROMAGNETIC MASS Unlike most textbooks on electromagnetic theory, which treat electricity, magnetism, Coulomb's law and Faraday's law as almost independent subjects within the framework of the theory, this well-written text takes a relativistic point of view in which electric and magnetic fields are really different aspects of the same physical quantity.Suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this volume offers a superb exposition of the essential unity of electromagnetism in its natural , relativistic framework while demonstrating the powerful constraint of relativistic invariance.
