In late 1971 DeWitt gave a course on gravitation at Stanford University, leaving almost 400 pages of detailed handwritten notes. Written with clarity and authority, and edited by his former student Steven Christensen, these timeless lecture notes, containing material or expositions not found in any other textbooks, are a gem to be discovered or re-discovered by anyone seriously interested in the study of gravitational physics.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;826GravitationPhysicsDifferential geometryClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Differential Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21022Gravitation.Physics.Differential geometry.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Differential Geometry.521/.1DeWitt Bryceauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut46279Christensen Steven Medthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK996466710303316Bryce DeWitt's Lectures on Gravitation855580UNISA02960 am 2200517 n 450 9910416493703321202008152-940600-18-X10.4000/books.iheid.7718(CKB)4100000011401314(FrMaCLE)OB-iheid-7718(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/62666(PPN)248895133(EXLCZ)99410000001140131420200828j|||||||| ||| 0enguu||||||m||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierWho Cares? Addressing Unpaid Care and Domestic Work as a Barrier to Female Microenterprise Development /Aatif SomjiGenève Graduate Institute Publications2020Gender gaps present themselves in a number of different ways across labour markets, consistently to the detriment of females. Gender gaps are well documented in the returns to capital of microenterprises, which provide substantial employment opportunities for those in low- and middle-income countries. The puzzle for academics and policymakers concerned with issues of gender, labour and development is to understand why these gender gaps exist across microenterprises and what can be done to address them. This ePaper seeks to contribute to these academic and policy debates, using a feminist framework to explore unpaid care and domestic work as one potential explanatory factor. Analyses of primary data collected from women micro-entrepreneurs in Uganda suggest that unpaid care and domestic work is a significant constraint to female microenterprise development. The key implication of this finding is that gender gaps in microenterprise could potentially be narrowed by addressing gender inequality in unpaid work. This requires investing in social and physical infrastructure to reduce the total time spent on unpaid work, and addressing the social norms around its gendered distribution – redistributing unpaid work more equitably between males and females. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Vahabzadeh Foundation for financially supporting the publication of best works by young researchers of the Graduate Institute, giving a priority to those who have been awarded academic prizes for their master’s dissertations.Social Issuesgendereconomic developmentworkwomendiscriminationgenderworkeconomic developmentdiscriminationwomenSocial Issuesgendereconomic developmentworkwomendiscriminationSomji Aatif1365235FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910416493703321Who Cares3386897UNINA
