Andreas Kuhn, "Bacterial Cell Walls and Membranes"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 3030187675 | PDF | pages: 493 | 13.5 mb
This book provides an up-to-date overview of the architecture and biosynthesis of bacterial and archaeal cell walls, highlighting the evolution-based similarities in, but also the intriguing differences between the cell walls of Gram-negative bacteria, the Firmicutes and Actinobacteria, and the Archaea. The recent major advances in this field, which have brought to light many new structural and functional details, are presented and discussed. Over the past five years, a number of novel systems, e.g. for lipid, porin and lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis have been described. In addition, new structural achievements with periplasmic chaperones have been made, all of which have revealed amazing details on how bacterial cell walls are synthesized. These findings provide an essential basis for future research, e.g. the development of new antibiotics.

Avocado: A Global History (The Edible Series) by Jeff Miller
English | June 15, 2020 | ISBN: 1789142032 | PDF | 144 pages | 4.9 MB
The avocado is arguably the most iconic food of the twenty-first century. In less than one-hundred years, it has gone from a little-known regional delicacy to global embrace and social media fame. This may seem like an astounding trajectory for a fruit that isn't sweet, that gets bitter when it is cooked, and has perhaps the oddest texture of any fruit or vegetable. But it is precisely the avocado's contradictions that have contributed to its ascent: the idea that this rich and delicious fruit is also healthy despite being fatty and energy-dense grants it unicorn status with modern eaters, especially millennials.

K.D Abhyankar, "Astrophysics of the Solar System"
English | ASIN: B01NAUVQ1U | 2017 | 417 pages | AZW3 | 8 MB
This book attempts to broadly deal with the mechanics and dynamics of the Solar System with additional emphasis on celestial mechanics. Important planetary laws and theories like the Geocentric Theory, Kepler's Laws, Newton's law of gravitation, the catastrophic theories of Moulten, Russel and Schmidt, and the nebular hypothesis of Kant and Laplace are clearly explained. The book also deals with space dynamics and rocket propulsion, solar activities, lunar studies, small bodies and extraterrestrial life.
Almut Suerbaum, Manuele Gragnolati, "Aspects of the Performative in Medieval Culture"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 3110222469 | PDF | pages: 332 | 2.0 mb
The volume assesses performative structures within a variety of medieval forms of textuality, from vernacular literature to records of parliamentary proceedings, from prayer books to musical composition. Three issues are central to the volume: the role of ritual speech acts; the way in which authorship can be seen as created within medieval texts rather than as a given category; finally, phenomena of voice, created and situated between citation and repetition, especially in forms which appropriate and transform literary tradition. The volume encompasses articles by historians and musicologists as well as literary scholars. It spans European literature from the West (French, German, Italian) to the East (Church Slavonic), vernacular and Latin; it contrasts modes of liturgical meditation in the Western and Eastern Church with secular plays and songs, and it brings together studies on the character of ‛voice´ in major medieval authors such as Dante with examples of Dante-reception in the early twentieth century.
