Review What Do Science, Technology, and Innovation Mean from Africa?

What Do Science, Technology, and Innovation Mean from Africa? High quality books What Do Science, Technology, and Innovation Mean from Africa? By:Clapperton Chakanetsa Mavhunga Published on 2017-06-16 by MIT Press Clapperton Mavhunga's collection of essays about science, technology, and innovation (STI) from an African perspective opens with the idea, |Things do not (always) mean the same from everywhere; when we insist that only 'our' meaning is the meaning, we silence other people's meanings.| Mavhunga and his contributors argue that our contemporary definitions of STI are those of countries and cultures that have acquired their dominance of others through global empires, and as a counter to that, Mavhunga seeks to put the concepts of STI into question, exploring what the technological, scientific, and innovative might mean from Africa in lieu of outside introductions or influences. We strongly feel that this book is suited to the Knowledge Unlatched program because o...

Download Non-destructive Testing of Materials in Civil Engineering

Non-destructive Testing of Materials in Civil Engineering High quality books Non-destructive Testing of Materials in Civil Engineering By:Krzysztof Schabowicz Published on 2019-11-19 by MDPI This book was proposed and organized as a means to present recent developments in the field of nondestructive testing of materials in civil engineering. For this reason, the articles highlighted in this editorial relate to different aspects of nondestructive testing of different materials in civil engineering—from building materials to building structures. The current trend in the development of nondestructive testing of materials in civil engineering is mainly concerned with the detection of flaws and defects in concrete elements and structures, and acoustic methods predominate in this field. As in medicine, the trend is towards designing test equipment that allows one to obtain a picture of the inside of the tested element and materials. From this point of view, interesting results with significa...

Review Merchants of Doubt

Merchants of Doubt High quality books Merchants of Doubt By:Naomi Oreskes,Erik M. Conway Published on 2011-10-03 by A&C Black The U.S. scientific community has long led the world in research on such areas as public health, environmental science, and issues affecting quality of life. These scientists have produced landmark studies on the dangers of DDT, tobacco smoke, acid rain, and global warming. But at the same time, a small yet potent subset of this community leads the world in vehement denial of these dangers. Merchants of Doubt tells the story of how a loose-knit group of high-level scientists and scientific advisers, with deep connections in politics and industry, ran effective campaigns to mislead the public and deny well-established scientific knowledge over four decades. Remarkably, the same individuals surface repeatedly-some of the same figures who have claimed that the science of global warming is |not settled| denied the truth of studies linking smoking to lung cancer,...

Best Seller Cognitive Technology

Cognitive Technology High quality books Cognitive Technology By:W. Richard Walker,Douglas J. Herrmann Published on 2010-07-27 by McFarland Rapidly growing cognitive technologies (such as word processors, web browsers, cell phones, and personal data assistants) aid learning, memory, and problem solving, and contribute to every part of modern life from interviewing crime witnesses to learning a foreign language to calling one’s mother. This collection of essays on cognitive technology examines the interaction between the human mind and the tools people create to enhance it, studying which technologies assist cognition the most and what features are most effective. It also considers the point at which the technological enhancement of human ability begins to restrict that very ability, such as the risk of some cognitive technologies impairing cognition or creating disadvantages for individuals or groups. This collection of 11 essays discusses the most recent psychological research in cogni...
