Описание: Responsible Care – A Case Study is the first book of its kind to provide insight into the development and evolution of Responsible Care and its influence of societal outcomes on the basis of case studies. It provides readers in industry, government, and academia with the principles and innovative thinking associated with the Responsible Care ethic as a means to promote and implement such advanced concepts in their own institution. The book is not only a teaching aid for university curriculum, it also serves as a practical tool to industrial management and staff to improve industrial policies. The last chapter illustrates a practical example of a workshop held at McMaster University, Canada, which can be used as a model for readers to use this book as an educational tool.

Описание: Minerals, metals and sustainability inspects the utilisation of minerals and mineral products and the consequences for sustainability of the consumption of finite mineral resources and the wastes related with their manufacture and usage. It delivers a multi-disciplinary approach that incorporates the physical and earth sciences with the social sciences, ecology and economics. Nowadays, the use of minerals is common in everyday items such as toothpaste, eyeglasses and some life saving hospital equipments. With the growth of the mining industry and development of advanced extraction techniques, more areas are being identified and selected for extraction of minerals. Abandoned land mines, mining in open areas, drilling for all- all these activities, if unplanned and not environmently-friendly also affects human health. This has led to concerns regarding the impact that mining has on the ecological health of the region and the people living in the area. Different methods of mining have different impacts on the environment. Sustainable development is the need of the hour if we are to provide a secure future for future generations. The book should be of great valuable for practising engineers, geologists and scientists; professionals in government service in areas such as resources, environment and sustainability; and non-technical professionals working in the minerals industry or in sectors servicing the minerals industry.

Описание: If art, science, and the humanities have shared one thing, it was their common engagement with constructions and representations of the human. Under the pressure of new contemporary concerns, however, we are experiencing a “posthuman condition”; the combination of new developments—such as the neoliberal economics of global capitalism, migration, technological advances, environmental destruction on a mass scale, the perpetual war on terror and extensive security systems— with a troublesome reiteration of old, unresolved problems that mean the concept of the human as we had previously known it has undergone dramatic transformations. The Posthuman Glossary is a volume providing an outline of the critical terms of posthumanity in present-day artistic and intellectual work. It builds on the broad thematic topics of Anthropocene/Capitalocene, eco-sophies, digital activism, algorithmic cultures and security and the inhuman. It outlines potential artistic, intellectual, and activist itineraries of working through the complex reality of the ‘posthuman condition’, and creates an understanding of the altered meanings of art vis-a-vis critical present-day developments. It bridges missing links across disciplines, terminologies, constituencies and critical communities. This original work will unlock the terms of the posthuman for students and researchers alike.
