Emerald Publishing Limited Performance Analysis of the Indian Pharmaceutical
Book SynopsisThe Indian Pharmaceutical Industry (IPI) has grown exponentially over the last few decades; however, recent global competition is forcing the industry to examine its performance focusing on productivity, efficiency and growth capabilities. While the industry as a whole has proved resilient to economic slowdowns, the performance of individual firms in the industry have displayed large disparities. There is also evidence of disparity among the Indian states.Efficiency and productivity act as good performance indicators. Performance Analysis of the Indian Pharmaceutical Industry estimates the extent of technical efficiency (TE) and total factor productivity growth (TFPG) of IPI and to identify their major affecting factors. A comparison between efficiency and TFPG of IPI is made, looking at the common factors responsible for variations in efficiency and TFPG of IPI.Chakraborty and Pal examine the import and export of Indian medicines to understand the place of the industry on a global scale and assess what can be done to become more competitive. The international comparison of this study will appeal and be useful for researchers, industry professionals and policy makers.

Centre for the Study of Language & Information Three Demonstrations and a Funeral and Other
Book SynopsisA collaboration between three distinguished professors of linguistics and philosophy. This book is a result, not only of the collaboration of the three authors but of two universitiesthe University of the Basque Country and Stanford University. In 1986, the late Jesus Mari Larrazabal and John Etchemendy met at a conference. They started talking about Etchemendy's Basque heritage, which was evident to Larrazabal from his name. Then they discussed logic and philosophy and found they had a lot in common in addition to being Basque. They became friends and Etchemendy visited the University of the Basque Country. Soon John and Nancy Etchemendy brought John and Frenchie Perry with them on a visit to Donostia, and they met Kepa Korta, then finishing up his doctoral dissertation directed by Larrazabal. On his next trip, Perry was awarded an honorary doctorate. Years later, María de Ponte started working with Kepa Korta as a postdoctoral researcher and met John Perry at a workshop on Semantics, Pragmatics, and Rhetoric organized by the Institute for Logic, Cognition, Language, and Information.

HAU The Elementary Forms of Corruption
Book SynopsisSeeks to better understand the nature of corruption through a case study of a rural Brazilian community's response to the country's political fraud. The Elementary Forms of Corruption is an ethnographic history of rural Brazilians' shifting moral imagination in the context of their country's recent corruption scandals and political crises. The book explores how Brazil's cosmopolitan models of corruption, both left-wing and right-wing varieties, found their way to a small sertanejo (hinterland) municipality in the northeast, where people understood corruption very differently. Reckoning with both the leftist Workers' Party, which sought to liberate sertanejos from patron-client relations, and the New Right populists who sought to stamp out the communists threatening the patriarchal family, the people of the sertanejo made recourse to older ideas about corruptionsuch as the betrayal of kinship obligations and communal trustto decipher and shape national politics. Challenging the discipline's current aversion to generalizable, analytic categories that are useful for comparison across cultures or historical periods, The Elementary Forms of Corruption posits a general framework for understanding corruption at its most elementary level: the degradation of a moral gradient through the transgressive rechanneling of those currencies (e.g., gifts, favors) that sustain communal bonds when properly directed.

Presses Polytechniques et Universitaires Romandes Drosophila Immunity Handbook
Book SynopsisExplores the genetics of Drosophila, or fruit flies, to further the study of immunity. Animals possess efficient mechanisms for detecting and neutralizing infection. The application of Drosophila genetics, or the genetics of fruit flies, to the study of these mechanisms has generated insights into insect immunity and uncovered general principles of animal host defense. Although it is difficult to summarize the sheer number of studies published on Drosophila immunity in recent years, theDrosophila Immunity Handbook aims to provide an overview of recent research trends, challenges, and discoveries in immunity through the lens of Drosophila. This overview introduces scientists to the sophisticated fly immune system, highlights exciting recent findings in the field, and pushes new horizons of research by contextualizing existing research and discovering exciting avenues to explore. These studies have shown that Drosophila have multiple defense modules that can be deployed in a coordinated response against distinct pathogens, using physical barriers such as epithelia and chitin, production of reactive oxygen species, antimicrobial factors, blood clotting, the melanization reaction, and complex cellular responses. Metabolic reprogramming also fuels the immune system and effectively combats pathogens, as do symbiont-mediated immunity, disease tolerance mechanisms, and behavioral immunity. The research presented here reveals broader roles of the immune system beyond infection, notably in disease pathologies such as neurodegeneration or cancer. This remarkable animal model has ultimately given us a better understanding of the multiple roles of the immune system at the organismal level.

Birkhauser Rethinking Obsolete Typologies
Book SynopsisA profound social change can be observed in the areas of mobility, work and trade, as well as in the practice of faith, especially in cities. As a result, certain building typologies such as petrol stations, offices, shopping centers, cinemas and churches are being used less, thus becoming increasingly obsolete and contributing to the obsolescence of the city. Three strategies must be considered for the efficient transformation of these structures: the conversion of existing architecture and the preservation of the gray energy they embody; the maximization of land use; and the strengthening of ecological functions to improve the urban microclimate and the quality of living space. The authors analyze potential solutions, present conversion scenarios, and illustrate these in schematic diagrams. Analysis of obsolete architectural typologies in urban centers Realistic proposals for the recyclability of existing buildings Attractive graphics and presentations of potential solutions

Birkhauser Conservation Theory and the Urban Realpolitik
Book SynopsisThe book delves into the realpolitik(s) of conservation endeavours in complex urban settings. It highlights discrepancies between formal policies and pragmatic realities, revealing the factors contributing to this divide. Drawing on cases from Iran, Turkey, Egypt, and India, the volume explores the myriad factors that undermine the realisation of conservation ideals. Stories of conservation projects presented in the book illustrate how political, economic, and ideological dynamics mould on-the-ground outcomes, diverting them from academic principles and national or international policies. Authored by scholars intimately familiar with local dynamics, the chapters weave a tapestry of disciplinary, bureaucratic, and socio-political structures that shape urban heritage planning across diverse contexts. Deals with the challenges encountered by international conservation doctrine in local contexts Focuses on local complexities Results of the DFG project titled Assembling Iran''s Urban Heritage Conservation Policy and Practice: Problematised in Tehran

Birkhauser NERD New Experimental Research in Design III
Book SynopsisDesign has long established itself as an independent research competence. The New Experimental Research in Design (NERD) series seeks to provide a public platform to reflect upon and discuss the specifically experimental dimension of the field. The contributions from researchers from around the world exhibit a diverse and insightful range of approaches, giving rise to further debate and action in the rapidly evolving field. In times of multiple crises the authors in this volume strive to find tactics of response. They introduce experiments into more-than-human design, co-species production, critical algorithmic immersion, feminist engagements with new materialism and more. From autoethnographic explorations to socially engaged methods, they challenge not just the role of design in these times, but the self-positioning of the designer.

Diaphanes AG Architectures of Embodiment – Disclosing New
Book SynopsisThis book was originated within the research environment Architecture of Embodiment, which inquires into architecture from an enactivist perspective and through aesthetic practices. This research environment does not primarily aim to formulate answers to its main research question—how does architecture condition the emergence of sense?—but to provide the adequate conceptual, methodological, and communicative conditions to address it. Ultimately, it aims to destabilize its objects of research in order to disclose new intelligibilities of the issues under inquiry. In this sense, Architecture of Embodiment, as an environment, intends to fulfill a fundamental cognitive function of research through aesthetic practices. Architectures of Embodiment is a constellation of coexisting autonomous artifacts: texts by Alex Arteaga, Mika Elo, Ana García Varas, Lidia Gasperoni, Jonathan Hale, Susanne Hauser, Dieter Mersch and Gerard Vilar in dialogue with one another through comments and comments on the comments. It is conceived as a dialogical research dispositive: an invitation to participate in an open-ended process of research within a growing ecology of research practices.
