The first major comparative analysis of parenthood in politics, Mothers and Others brings together leading scholars of gender and politics to discuss the role of parental status in political life. Examining three main areas of citizen engagement within the political system – parenthood and political careers, parenthood and the media, and parenthood and political behaviour – they argue that being a parent is a gendered identity that influences how, why, and to what extent women (and men) engage with politics. This raises important questions about how career politicians, voters, and the media navigate the intersection of gender, parental status, and politics.

Описание: A man ruled by his gun meets a woman led by her heart in bestselling author Rosanne Bittner's dazzling romance. When Moss Tucker smelled danger he shot it. When he needed shelter he grabbed it. And when he wanted a woman's touch he bought it. But then he saw Amanda Boone's sparkling azure eyes--an innocent beauty like her would never get involved with a lawbreaking man like him. Chestnut-haired Amanda tried to keep her gaze on the vast frontier that flashed past her train window--but it kept straying to the buckskin-clad stranger. Every inch of him was virile and strong. She knew it was wrong to even think of his muscular arms crushing her soft curves in a fierce embrace. Yet she vowed that before the trip was through he would be the one to tame her savage desire with his wild and lawless love.

Her tapestry is woven with authenticity, colorful characters, intense emotions and love's power over every conceivable obstacle."--RT BOOK REVIEWS

Описание: He saved her life. She rescued his heart. Mail order bride Jennifer Andrews headed to Texas ready for adventure. But when her stagecoach was attacked, the auburn-haired beauty wished she'd never left St. Louis. All at once the renegades were gone--and she was cradled in the strong arms of fellow passenger Wade Morrow. The handsome man had saved her life, and though they were all alone on the vast Texas plains, she felt safer than she ever had before. Though Comanche blood ran in Wade Morrow's veins, he'd been adopted by a white family as an infant, and knew nothing of his Indian heritage. Still, something in him yearned for the wild, untamed land where he was born. So he headed to west Texas to join his past with his future--and ended up with Jennifer Andrews in his arms. Burned by past betrayals, Wade wanted to harden his heart against the sweet desire she awakened. But how can he deny the passion they share?

Weltweit ist eine Zunahme neuer Hubschrauberentw rfe zu beobachten. Interne Vibrationsminderung und externe Ger uschentwicklung haben dabei als Entwicklungsziele stark gewonnen. Entscheidend bleiben weiterhin die Fliegbarkeit, als Flugmechanik bezeichnet, sowie die m gliche Nutzlast in Abh ngigkeit von der Reichweite. Der Inhalt dieser 4. Auflage beschreibt diesbez gliche Entwicklungserfolge.
Der Hubschrauber ist ein hoch komplexes System, im konstruktiven Aufbau sowie auf seine Dynamik bezogen. Die daf r notwendigen grundlegenden Kenntnisse der Besonderheiten f r Ingenieure und Nutzer vermittelt der Autor. Er behandelt die flugmechanischen Zusammenh nge auf der Basis der relevanten Bauelemente: Steuerungssystem samt Verst rkungshydraulik, Taumelscheibe und Mischhebelgetriebe, zur Ansteuerung der Rotorbl tter und damit zur Kontrolle des Hubschraubers im Normalbetrieb. Schwerpunkt ist die Flugmechanik, die zentrale Wissenschaft der gesamten Flugtechnik, zur Identifizierung der Flugstabilit ten und der n tigen Steuerbarkeit. Definitionen und Vereinbarungen werden genannt, im Rahmen der Auslegung werden Abflugmasse und Flugleistungen bestimmt. Die AR (Autorotation) als gefahrloses Landeverfahren wird erkl rt und der Bodeneffekt wird dargestellt. Die Kosten der Entwicklung und des sp teren Betriebes werden ermittelt. Der Autor geht auch auf hubschrauberspezifische Besonderheiten ein: die gew nschte N he zu den zahlreichen Blattresonanzen, das Wirbelringstadium, die Flattergrenze, die dynamischen Kopplungen, der bergang von den DMZ (Dead Man s Zone beim Fl chenflugzeug) zur fast harmlosen AZ (Avoid Zone) des Hubschraubers. Aus den Bewegungsgleichungen entsteht die Dynamikmatrix, in der alle Eigenbewegungen enthalten sind, die Stabilit ten. Dagegen wirken die konstruktiv zu dimensionierenden Steuerbarkeiten, von den traditionellen niedrigen bis zu den heute m glichen hohen Frequenzen. Einige Abschnitte wurden entsprechend neuester Erkenntnisse erweitert, z. B. die der dynamische Kopplungen und der Forschungsergebnisse im Bereich der noch weitgehend unerforschten einstation ren Aerodynamik, hubschraubertypisch, f r die ein Ansto gegeben wird.
Das Buch unterst tzt Leser, die sich mit Hubschrauberentwicklung und deren Betrieb befassen. Die zu erf llenden Forderungen und anzuwendenden Vorschriften lernt er kennen und kann sie rechtzeitig einbringen. Der Leser kann eine sachgerechte Beurteilung der zu erwartenden Flugeigenschaften und Kosten abgeben.
