Описание: Women are born with a finite number of oocytes and throughout the reproductive ageing process (which starts prior to birth and develops in a continuum), the progressive loss of these oocytes (during atresia or ovulation) is observed, which does not necessarily happen at a constant rate. The reproductive failure is what signals menopause. In this new book, the authors discuss the management, complications and social perceptions relating to menopause. Topics included in this complication examine the biopsychosocial conceptualization and assessment of menopausal symptoms; management of typically ignored but increased risk factors for dysparaneua, HIV and other STDs; perceptions about menopause and hormonal therapy in Brazilian women; oestrogen deficiency in bone diseases in female hemodialysis patients; and estrogen dose in postmenopausal hormonal therapy.

Описание: Fifty-two journaling exercises that guide you to practice one small act of self-care each week.

Self-care isn't just another trend, it's an important practice to counterbalance the stresses, distractions, and demands of everyday life. Based on the book Self-Care for the Real World by wellness pioneers Nadia Narain and Katia Narain Phillips, this guided journal offers a weekly opportunity--with 52 tips and related prompts--to check in with yourself in small and meaningful ways. It offers exercises for coping with social media, replacing FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) with JOMO (Joy of Missing Out), embracing compromise and imperfection, setting boundaries, and feeling more grateful. You do not need to fill in the prompts in any particular order, and you can flip to any that speak to you in the moment. The journal doesn't preach drastic life changes, but offers strategies and prompts that can have a cumulative influence on your life over the course of a year.

Special Features

• Paperback with textured cover stock, flaps, and a lay-flat binding
• Two ribbon markers
• Two-color design throughout
• Inspiring passages, quotes, and journaling prompts for exploring different aspects of self-care.

Описание: This book has the primary goal of presenting and discussing some recent advances and ongoing developments in the Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) field, resulting from works done on different HTR-related topics for the achievement of more accurate and efficient recognition systems. Nowadays, there is an enormous worldwide interest in HTR systems, which is mostly driven by the emergence of new portable devices incorporating handwriting recognition functions. Others interests are the biometric identification systems employing handwritten signatures, as well as the requirements from cultural heritage institutions like historical archives and libraries in order to preserve their large collections of historical (handwritten) documents. The book is organised into two sections: the first one is mainly devoted to describing the current state-of-the-art applications in HTR and the last advances in some of the steps involved in HTR workflow (that is, pre-processing, feature extraction, recognition engines, etc.), whereas the second focuses more on some relevant HTR-related applications. In more depth, the first part offers an overview of the current state-of-the-art applications of HTR technology and introduces the new challenges and research opportunities in the field. Besides, it provides a general discussion of currently ongoing approaches towards solving the underlying search problems on the basis of existing methods for HTR in terms of both accuracy and efficiency. In particular, there are chapters especially focused on image thresholding and enhancement, text image pre-processing techniques for historical handwritten documents and feature extraction methods for HTR. Likewise, in line with the breakout success of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) in the field, a whole chapter is devoted to describing the designing of HTR systems based on DNNs. Finally, a chapter listing the most used benchmarking datasets for HTR is also included, providing detailed information about which types of HTR systems (on/offline) and features are commonly considered for each of them. In the second part, several systems also developed on the basis of the fundamental concepts and general approaches outlined in the first part -- are described for several HTR-related applications. Presented in the corresponding chapters, these applications cover a wide spectrum of scenarios: mathematical formulae recognition, scripting language recognition, multimodal handwriting-speech recognition, hardware design for online HTR, student performance evaluation through handwriting analysis, performance evaluation methods, keyword spotting, and handwritten signature verification systems. Last but not least, it is important to remark that to a large extent, this book is the result of works carried out by several researchers in the Handwritten Text Recognition field. Therefore, it owes credit to these researchers that have directly contributed to their ideas, discussions and technical collaborations, and in general who, in one manner or another, have made it possible.

Описание: In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the types, ecology and conservation of evergreens. Topics discussed in this compilation include evergreen conifer forests in Hokkaido and Sakhalin, Japan; light responses and gender issues in the domestication process of Yerba-Mate evergreens; spatio-temporal variation in edge effects on the herpetofauma of a Mexican tropical rain forest; conservation of the Chinese cathay silver fir; ecological significance of leaf longevity of the cerrado woody species; and temperature and transpiration effects of selective cutting of large trees in a broad-leaved evergreen forest in central Cambodia.

Описание: In Protecting Stateless Persons: The Implementation of the Convention Relating to the Status of Stateless Persons across EU States, Katia Bianchini offers an in-depth comparative study of legislation, case-law and decision-making concerning the treatment of stateless persons in ten EU States. Focusing on whether and why statelessness determination procedures are needed, what their constituent elements should be, how the definition of "stateless person" is interpreted and applied, and what rights are attached to the granting of status, Katia Bianchini critically examines current national legal frameworks, and points a way forward for more effective legislation and practice in the area of statelessness. Against this backdrop, she adds insights into the wider debate on how human rights treaties should be implemented.
