Beaucoup de territoires connaissaient déjà ces maux : les déserts médicaux ne datent pas d?hier, pas plus que les problèmes de coordination des soins pour la prise en charge des maladies chroniques ou les lacunes en termes d?accompagnement au grand âge. Tous ces problèmes ne viennent pas de la formation et tous ne trouvent pas leur solution dans les réformes conduites dans ce domaine, mais la façon dont l?appareil de formation délivre les connaissances et fabrique les spécialités, son organisation (entre les universités, les CHU, les facultés, les instituts? et les territoires), les politiques en matière d?admission et de flux d?étudiants (les fameux numerus clausus et quotas), tout cela façonne le système de santé, influe sur les possibilités de coopération et les conflits et modèle le rapport à l?innovation et la distribution des ressources sur le terrain. Si la santé est un bien commun, la réforme des études est l?affaire de tous. Ce livre, qui donne la parole aux acteurs (enseignants, professionnels de santé, chercheurs, étudiants et acteurs des politiques), place les réformes actuelles des études de santé à la portée du plus grand nombre. 517 $aÉtudes de santà 606 $aPolitical Science Public Admin. & Development 606 $aPublic Health & Health Care Science 606 $aréforme 606 $asanté 606 $asociété 606 $apolitique publique 606 $agéographie 606 $auniversité 606 $aformation 606 $ascience de l?éducation 606 $ascience de gestion 606 $amédical 606 $aparamédical 610 $aréforme 610 $asanté 610 $asociété 610 $apolitique publique 610 $agéographie 610 $auniversité 610 $aformation 610 $ascience de l?éducation 610 $ascience de gestion 610 $amédical 610 $aparamédical 615 4$aPolitical Science Public Admin. & Development 615 4$aPublic Health & Health Care Science 615 4$aréforme 615 4$asanté 615 4$asociété 615 4$apolitique publique 615 4$agéographie 615 4$auniversité 615 4$aformation 615 4$ascience de l?éducation 615 4$ascience de gestion 615 4$amédical 615 4$aparamédical 700 $aAlbertone$b Mathias$01320896 701 $aAnnane$b Djillali$01320897 701 $aArbab-Chirani$b Reza$01320898 701 $aBenhaim$b Annie$01320899 701 $aBerbis$b Philippe$01320900 701 $aBeretz$b Alain$01320901 701 $aBocognano$b Agnès$0374258 701 $aBoussaton$b Michel$01294860 701 $aBraun$b Marc$01320902 701 $aCharloux$b Anne$01320903 701 $aDenise$b Pierre$01320904 701 $aDéplaude$b Marc-Olivier$01316334 701 $aDerbez$b Benjamin$01320905 701 $aDiot$b Patrice$01320906 701 $aDubois-Randé$b Jean-Luc$01320907 701 $aEtchemendigaray$b Christine$01320908 701 $aGarcia$b Robert$01320909 701 $aGauthier$b Ludivine$01320910 701 $aGautier$b Sylvain$01320911 701 $aGenet$b François$01320912 701 $aGirard$b Florence$01320913 701 $aGrenier$b Corinne$01320914 701 $aHumbert$b Xavier$01320915 701 $aJeanson$b Françoise$01320916 701 $aJovic$b Ljiljana$01320917 701 $aLacoste$b Olivier$01320918 701 $aLeclercq$b Anne$01320919 701 $aLenesley$b Pauline$01320920 701 $aLerolle$b Nicolas$01320921 701 $aLevaillant$b Mathieu$01320922 701 $aLe Bouler$b Stéphane$01320923 701 $aLhermet$b Cléo$01320924 701 $aMascle$b Anthony$01320925 701 $aMekeddem$b Nassim$01320926 701 $aMillet$b Pierre$0501873 701 $aMossé$b Philippe$01230770 701 $aMuller$b Bernard$01288307 701 $aMusselin$b Christine$01275899 701 $aNicolas$b Emmanuel$01295149 701 $aPalombi$b Olivier$01320927 701 $aPelaccia$b Thierry$01320928 701 $aPham$b Bach-Nga$01320929 701 $aPorquet$b Dominique$01320930 701 $aPortero$b Pierre$01320931 701 $aRaynaud$b Joy$01320932 701 $aRegnaux$b Jean-Philippe$01320933 701 $aRichard$b Isabelle$01317627 701 $aSaint-André$b Jean-Paul$01315342 701 $aSaint-Lorant$b Guillaume$01320934 701 $aSalat$b Eric$01320935 701 $aSchlemmer$b Benoît$01320936 701 $aSibilia$b Jean$01320937 701 $aTeillard$b Jérôme$01320938 701 $aTouzé$b Emmanuel$01320939 701 $aTripoteau$b Xavier$01320940 701 $aVaillant$b Loïc$01320941 701 $aVerin$b Eric$01320942 701 $aWeber$b Monique$01320943 701 $aWolkenstein$b Pierre$01320944 701 $aWoronoff-Lemsi$b Macha$01320945 701 $aZaidman$b Catherine$01313111 701 $aLe Bouler$b Stéphane$01320946 701 $aLenesley$b Pauline$01320920 801 0$bFR-FrMaCLE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910578682003321 996 $aÉtudes de santé$93034468 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03957nam 2200601 a 450 001 9910790136003321 005 20230801222317.0 010 $a3-8428-2148-4 035 $a(CKB)2670000000171142 035 $a(EBL)887631 035 $a(OCoLC)784887741 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000656201 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12257098 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000656201 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10631682 035 $a(PQKB)11040822 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC887631 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL887631 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10553211 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000171142 100 $a20120424d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe global player$b[electronic resource] $ehow to become "the logistics company for the world" /$fThomas Musiolik 210 $aHamburg $cDiplomica Verlag$d2012 215 $a1 online resource (89 p.) 300 $aTitle from cover. 311 $a3-8428-7148-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aThe Global Player: How to become ""the logistics company for the world""; Expression of thanks; Index; List of abbreviations; List of figures; List of tables; Executive Summary; 1.

In times of globalization and economic downturn, the effects of which can be felt in the entire logistics industry, this goal is an enormous challenge for DHL. In order to attain this goal, it is essential for DHL to create a closer linkage of its business areas, to slim down its processes and to put a stronger focus on the ever-changing needs of the customer.The objective of this book is to offer cost reduction sol 606 $aBusiness logistics$zGermany 606 $aSuccess in business 606 $aInternational business enterprises 615 0$aBusiness logistics 615 0$aSuccess in business. 615 0$aInternational business enterprises. 676 $a388 676 $a388.0973 676 $a388/.0973 700 $aMusiolik$b Thomas$01465667 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790136003321 996 $aThe global player$93675814 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04206nam 2200913 a 450 001 9910777749703321 005 20210525201118.0 010 $a0-8147-4937-2 024 7 $a10.18574/nyu/9780814749371 035 $a(CKB)1000000000752836 035 $a(OCoLC)176632638 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10189758 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000130064 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11142520 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000130064 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10080265 035 $a(PQKB)11270908 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3025599 035 $a(DE-B1597)548409 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780814749371 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000752836 100 $a20150424d2007|||| s|| | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aContrast : Manners, Morals, and Authority in the Early American Republic$b[electronic resource] 210 $aNew York, NY, USA$cNYU Press$d2007 210 $cNYU Press 215 $a1 online resource (158 p.) 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a0-8147-4792-2 327 $tFrontmatter -- $tContents -- $tIllustrations -- $tPreface -- $t1 Introduction -- $t2 The Contrast by Royall Tyler -- $t3 Primary Documents -- $tSuggested Reading -- $tIndex -- $tAbout the Author 330 $a?The Contrast?, which premiered at New York City's John Street Theater in 1787, was the first American play performed in public by a professional theater company. The play, written by New England-born, Harvard-educated, Royall Tyler was timely, funny, and extremely popular. When the play appeared in print in 1790, George Washington himself appeared at the head of its list of hundreds of subscribers.Reprinted here with annotated footnotes by historian Cynthia A. Kierner, Tyler?s play explores the debate over manners, morals, and cultural authority in the decades following American Revolution. Did the American colonists' rejection of monarchy in 1776 mean they should abolish all European social traditions and hierarchies? What sorts of etiquette, amusements, and fashions were appropriate and beneficial? Most important, to be a nation, did Americans need to distinguish themselves from Europeans-and, if so, how? Tyler was not the only American pondering these questions, and Kierner situates the play in its broader historical and cultural contexts. An extensive introduction provides readers with a background on life and politics in the United States in 1787, when Americans were in the midst of nation-building. The book also features a section with selections from contemporary letters, essays, novels, conduct books, and public documents, which debate issues of the era. 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM$2bisac 606 $aDrama$2bisac 606 $aManners and customs$xHistory$y18th century$zUnited States$vDrama 606 $aConduct of life$vDrama 606 $aBetrothal$vDrama 606 $aArranged marriage$vDrama 606 $aMate selection$vDrama 606 $aPolitics and literature$vSources 606 $aEnglish$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aAmerican Literature$2HILCC 610 $aContrast. 610 $aRepublic. 610 $acreative. 610 $aearly. 610 $ageneral. 610 $ahistory. 610 $amanner. 610 $amaterials. 610 $apresent. 610 $areaders. 610 $astudents. 610 $ateachers. 610 $auser-friendly. 610 $awitty. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM 615 7$aDrama 615 0$aManners and customs$xHistory 615 0$aConduct of life 615 0$aBetrothal 615 0$aArranged marriage 615 0$aMate selection 615 0$aPolitics and literature 615 7$aEnglish 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aAmerican Literature 676 $a812/.1 700 $aTyler$b Royall$0403234 702 $aKierner$b Cynthia A 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777749703321 996 $aContrast : Manners, Morals, and Authority in the Early American Republic$93863052 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01812nam0 22003731i 450 001 UON00025422 005 20231205102037.878 010 $a06-911013-4-5 100 $a20020107d1983 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aUS 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aIran between two revolutions$fErvand Abrahamian 210 $a[Second printing, with corrections] 215 $aPrinceton$cPrinceton University Press, 1983 xiii, 561 p.$d23 cm 410 1$1001UON00065573$12001 $aPrinceton studies on the Near East 606 $aIRAN$xSTORIA$xPERIODO PAHLAVI$3UONC002119$2FI 606 $aIRAN$xSTORIA$xPERIODO PAHLAVI$xOPPOSIZIONE POLITICA$3UONC008021$2FI 606 $aIRAN$xSTORIA$xPERIODO QAJAR$xRIVOLTA COSTITUZIONALE$3UONC005698$2FI 606 $aIran$xStoria$xRivoluzione islamica$3UONC000063$2FI 620 $aUS$dPrinceton$3UONL000074 686 $aIRA IV BB$cIRAN - STORIA GENERALE - PERIODO MODERNO E CONTEMPORANEO (DAI SAFAVIDI A OGGI)$2A 700 1$aABRAHAMIAN$bErvand$3UONV015339$0501824 712 $aPrinceton University Press$3UONV245813$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20250801$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00025422 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI IRA IV BB 133 N $eSI SA 84176 5 133 N 966 $aPAHLAVI (DINASTIA)$zIRAN - STORIA - PERIODO PAHLAVI$3UONC005671 966 $aRivoluzione islamica$zIran - Storia - Rivoluzione islamica$3UONC005678 966 $aDONNE - Iran - Rivoluzione islamica$yIran - Storia - Rivoluzione islamica$3UONC002878 966 $aISLAM - IRAN - MOVIMENTI RADICALI$yIran - Storia - Rivoluzione islamica$3UONC003399 996 $aIran between two revolutions$9727662 997 $aUNIOR LEADER 03462nam 2200373z- 450 001 9910136804703321 005 20210211 035 $a(CKB)3710000000631093 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/54346 035 $a(oapen)doab54346 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000631093 100 $a20202102d2015 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aThe Natriuretic Hormones 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2015 215 $a1 online resource (76 p.) 225 1 $aFrontiers Research Topics 311 08$a2-88919-709-3 330 $aThe title follows from the original demonstration by Dr. Hugh de Wardener in 1961 that a humoral agent is produced after extracellular volume expansion which results in a vigorous diuresis and natriuresis. Thus the name of "natriuretic hormone" was coined. In the years that followed several investigators pursued the search for the hormone. What resulted, however, was the discovery of several hormones with different characteristics, all of which were natriuretic. Initially it was found that the hormone was similar in action to ouabain or digoxin, hence the appelation of ouabain-like or digoxin-like. The hormone was found to be an inhibitor of Na-K-ATPase, which would fit with it being a cardiotonic steroid. On the other hand, neither ouabain or digoxin migrated on Sephadex gel filtration in the same locus as the hormone. Other investigators claim to have identified the hormone-initially as a vanadium-diascorbate, later as bufadienolides such as marinobufagenin, yet later as a macrocylic derivative of inorganic carbon suboxide with a molecular weight of 408 Da. Some support for the latter finding was derived from an earlier report that a semi-purified Sephadex-derived compound was found to have a molecular weight of about 12,000 Da but the active compound, when split from its carrier protein, had a molecular weight of exactly 408 Da. This compound had not been further identified. As further development was the demonstration by Bricker and colleagues that a natriuretic substance could be purified from uremic urine. This turned out to be a xathurenic acid derivative. Meanwhile the focus began to turn to natriuretic peptides derived from heart (ANF and BNP). These peptides have a shorter duration of action than the cardiotonic steroid-like hormone and ANF has proved to be most useful as a measure of heart failure. It should also be stressed that marinobufagenin, like ANF, is elevated in congestive heart failure, whereas the steroid-like hormone is depressed or absent in this state. This review will attempt to describe and contrast the properties of each of the proposed natriuretic hormones, including their locus on Sephadex separation, potency, duration of action, chemical structure (if known), behavior in hypertension, renal failure, heart failure, and brain disease. As most recent work has focussed on marinobufagenin, this hormone will be brought up to date by investigators in the field. 610 $ahormone 610 $aHypertension 610 $aHypothalamus 610 $aNatriuresis 610 $aVolume expansion 700 $aVardaman M.

In fact for many people, Shi'ism stands for "radical Islam", or - worse - "Islamic terrorism". In some respects, nothing is more familiar than Shi'ism, and yet nothing is more misunderstood. For some twenty years the media have increased their coverage of the phenomenon. Never, or only rarely, do they formulate the question we ask here: what is Shi'ism? What is this belief that inspires millions of people dispersed throughout the world? This book provides a broad based introduction to Shi'i Islam. It examines what the Shi'i believe, how they see themselves and how they view the world. It includes a thorough examination of doctrine, philosophy, the Shi'i approach to the Qur'an and the historical evolution of Shi'ism as a branch of Islam. Too often, and too quickly, the conclusion is drawn that Shi'ism is a marginal heretical sect, fundamentally alien to the deeper truth of the great religion of Islam, thrust by historical accident onto the political stage. Shi'ism either speaks the truth of Islam, meaning that it is a truth of terror, or it is entirely foreign to Islam and, therefore, merits outright rejection, as Islamic fundamentalists and some individuals repeatedly claim. This book intends to explain why such common misunderstandings of Shi'ism have taken root. Written in an accessible format and providing a thorough overview of Shi'ism, this book will be an essential text for students and scholars of Islamic Studies or Iranian Studies. 410 0$aRoutledge Persian and Shi??i? studies series ;$v3. 606 $aShiites 606 $aShi??ah 606 $aShi??ah$xDoctrines 615 0$aShiites. 615 0$aShi??ah. 615 0$aShi??ah$xDoctrines. 676 $a297.8/2 700 $aAmir-Moezzi$b Mohammad Ali$0472627 702 $aCasler$b Kenneth 702 $aJambet$b Christian 702 $aOrmsby$b Eric L$g(Eric Linn),$f1941- 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970537103321 996 $aWhat is Shi?ism$94477969 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03405nam 2200481z- 450 001 9910166646103321 005 20260310204305.0 035 $a(CKB)3710000001092138 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/48187 035 $a(oapen)doab48187 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001092138 100 $a20202102d2016 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aFunctional Characterization of Insect Chemoreceptors: Receptivity Range, Expression and Evolution 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2016 215 $a1 online resource (163 p.) 225 1 $aFrontiers Research Topics 311 08$a2-88919-860-X 330 $aOlfaction and taste are of critical importance to insects and other animals, since vital behaviours, including mate, food and host seeking, as well as predator and toxin avoidance, are guided by chemosensory cues. Mate and habitat choice are to a large extent determined by chemical signals, and chemoreceptors contribute accordingly to pre-mating isolation barriers and speciation. In addition to fundamental physiological, ecological and evolutionary consideration, the knowledge of insect taste and especially olfaction is also of great importance to human economies, since it facilitates a more informed approach to the management of insect pests of agricultural crops and forests, and insect vectors of disease. Chemoreceptors, which bind to external chemical signals and then transform and send the sensory information to the brain, are at the core of the peripheral olfactory and gustatory system and have thus been the focus of recent research in chemical ecology. Specifically, emphasis has been placed on functional characterization of olfactory receptor genes, which are derived from three large gene families, namely the odorant receptors, gustatory receptors and ionotropic receptors. Spatial expression patterns of olfactory receptors in diverse chemosensory tissues provide information on divergent functions, with regards to ecologically relevant behaviours. On the other hand, characterization of olfactory receptor activation profiles, or "deorphanization", provides complimentary data on the molecular range of receptivity to the fundamental unit of the olfactory sense. The aim of this Research Topic is to give an update on the breadth and depth of research currently in progress related to understanding the molecular mechanisms of insect chemoreception, with specific emphasis on the olfactory receptors. 517 $aFunctional Characterization of Insect Chemoreceptors 606 $aEcological science, the Biosphere$2bicssc 610 $achemical ecology 610 $aChemoreceptors 610 $adeorphanization 610 $aevolution 610 $aGene Expression 610 $agustation 610 $aGustatory Receptors 610 $aInsects 610 $aodorant receptors 610 $aOlfaction 615 7$aEcological science, the Biosphere 700 $aWalker$b William Benjamin$cIII$4auth$01896080 702 $aHill$b Sharon R$4auth 702 $aJacquin-Joly$b Emmanuelle$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910166646103321 996 $aFunctional Characterization of Insect Chemoreceptors: Receptivity Range, Expression and Evolution$94550376 997 $aUNINA
