This handbook addresses the interrelatedness of nationalism, identity, language, linguistics, and multilingualism in an African context. It covers multilingualism, language…
and identity, language endangerment, language shift, language maintenance, language contact, diglossia, language decline, language death, language vitality, and much more in, linguistically, one of the richest regions on earth. The variety of alphabets and oral traditions immersed in folklore, made more linguistically complex through issues of inter-borders, and the long history of foreign intrusions and colonialism, has meant a collision of identities and linguistic peculiarities. This book considers these facets in relation to language endangerment in numerous geographies within the African continent. It confronts these questions under the rubric of multilingualism, linguistic geography, and a panoply of other sub-studies. By investigating a multitude of topics around the themes of multilingualism, identity, and language endangerment in Africa, this volume brings together these dimensions to showcase interdisciplinary research in studies of African languages and linguistics. Relevant to applied linguists, socio-linguists, cultural linguistics, language teachers, anthropologists, and scholars in African cultural studies more broadly, this is a vital, urgent text challenging language, and identity, endangerment.

Nachhaltige Geschäftsmodellinnovationen gelten als zentraler Hebel für eine zukunftsfähige Wirtschaft. Doch wie gelingt ihre Umsetzung im Spannungsfeld institutioneller Rahmenbedingungen? Dieses…
Buch untersucht die Rolle von Unternehmen als aktive Gestalter des Wandels in sozio-technischen Transitionen – mit Fokus auf den Lebensmittel- und Ernährungssektor. Anhand von sechs Fallstudien beleuchtet die Arbeit, wie Unternehmer strategisch auf ihr institutionelles Umfeld reagieren – und es zugleich durch ihre Geschäftsmodellinnovationen mitprägen. Im Zentrum steht die Frage, wie nachhaltige Innovationen in komplexen Systemen entstehen, legitimiert und skaliert werden können. Die Studie liefert sowohl theoretische Impulse zur Verbindung von Geschäftsmodellen und Nachhaltigkeitstransitionen als auch praxisrelevante Erkenntnisse für Akteure, die den Wandel zu einer nachhaltigeren Wirtschaft aktiv mitgestalten wollen.

This book is a comprehensive reference of the neuraxial route for the delivery of therapeutics. It reviews the historical evolution…
of this approach from its inception in the later 1800's to present day. This amply referenced text covers basic discussions of spinal anatomy, embryogenesis, neuraxial vascularity, cerebrospinal fluid flow dynamics and parenchymal molecule movement. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of different intrathecal agents are explored in detail with particular reference to clinical correlates in pain and spasticity. Particular attention is paid to the issues relevant to preclinical models of intrathecal delivery and the assessment of spinal pathologies arising from acute and chronic intrathecal drug delivery. Chapters provide essential discussions of clinical aspects of patient care, including patient evaluation and screening, trialing and device management, troubleshooting problems and addressing complications, best practices, cost-effectiveness and future of the therapy. Clinicians and researchers who practice intrathecal therapy and study neuraxial mechanisms will find Neuraxial Therapeutics, to be an invaluable guide to this treatment modality.

THE 2025 TRILLIUM BOOK AWARD • FINALIST FOR THE 2024 ATWOOD GIBSON WRITERS' TRUST FICTION PRIZE • FINALIST FOR THE 2024 GOVERNOR GENERAL'S LITERARY AWARD FOR FICTION • SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2025 SUNBURST AWARD • GLOBE AND MAIL'S BEST BOOKS OF 2024 • CBC'S BEST CANADIAN FICTION OF 2024 Groundbreaking, dazzling debut fiction from one of Canada's most exciting and admired writers.Canisia Lubrin's debut fiction is that rare work of art—a brilliant, startlingly original book that combines immense literary and political force. Its structure is deceptively simple: it departs from the infamous real-life &“Code Noir,&” a set of historical decrees originally passed in 1685 by King Louis XIV of France defining the conditions of slavery in the French colonial empire. The original Code had fifty-nine articles; Code Noir has fifty-nine linked fictions—vivid, unforgettable, multi-layered fragments filled with globe-wise characters who desire to live beyond the ruins of the past. Ranging in style from contemporary realism to dystopia, from futuristic fantasy to historical fiction, this inventive, shape-shifting braid of stories exists far beyond the enclosures of official decrees. This is a timely, daring, virtuosic book by a young literary star. The stories are accompanied by black-and-white drawings—one at the start of each fiction—by acclaimed visual artist Torkwase Dyson.

Thoroughly researched and finely crafted, After the Grizzly traces the history of endangered species and habitat in California, from the…
time of the Gold Rush to the present. Peter S. Alagona shows how scientists and conservationists came to view the fates of endangered species as inextricable from ecological conditions and human activities in the places where those species lived. Focusing on the stories of four high-profile endangered species--the California condor, desert tortoise, Delta smelt, and San Joaquin kit fox--Alagona offers an absorbing account of how Americans developed a political system capable of producing and sustaining debates in which imperiled species serve as proxies for broader conflicts about the politics of place. The challenge for conservationists in the twenty-first century, this book claims, will be to redefine habitat conservation beyond protected wildlands to build more diverse and sustainable landscapes.
