Studies In Indian Moral Philosophy

The interest in studying the classical Indian philosophicalsystems in their various aspects has been growing considerably during the lastfive decades. Several doctrines, concepts, theories and points of view as theyare expressed in the classical texts are being reformulated using western idiomsand frameworks of understanding. This volume is a collection of essays dealing with variousaspects of Indian moral philosophy. The issues like Purausartha, Dharm,Ahimsa, Karma, Bandha and Moksa have been the central issues around which the Indianpsyche has been evolving for the last few millennia. The Indian wisdom on theseissues is manifest in rich and diverse traditions which, apart from providing atheoretical understanding, can also offer possible solutions to certain issues inapplied ethics that deals with moral problems in individual and social life. StudiesIn Indian Moral Philosophy includes research articles throwing light on these issues by wayof presenting and analyzing the Hindu, Jaina and Buddhist approaches to life.

"Designed for undergraduate students of electrical engineering, this book offers a thorough understanding of the basic principles and techniques of power electronics as well as its applications. It will also be useful to postgraduate students and practising engineers involved in the design and applications of power electronics.

Divided into nine chapters, the book covers the family of thyristors (SCR) including its characteristics, operation, turn-on and turn-off procedures. It also discusses power transistors, MOSFET, IGBT, phase-controlled rectifiers, AC voltage controllers and cycloconverters, choppers, inverters and other devices. The well-illustrated diagrams, the worked-out examples and the chapter-end questions help students to absorb concepts, and thus reinforce the understanding of the subject."

Downstream Process Technology : A New Horizon In Biotechnology

NOORALABETTU KRISHNA PRASAD (PhD), is Professor, Department of Biotechnology, P.A. College of Engineering, Mangalore, Karnataka. He has nearly two decades of industrial, research and teaching experience. Dr. Krishna Prasad is also the recipient of a prestigious award—Century International Quality Era Award—in Gold Category awarded by BID, Spain at Geneva.

Today, biochemical process industry demands fast and economic processes for the partitioning and purification of biomolecules that give high yield and high purity of the product. An integral and cost intensive part of these processes is associated with downstream processing for product isolation and purification. The aim of this comprehensive text is to provide an insightful overview of the whole aspects of downstream processing for biochemical product recovery.

Intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students of biotechnology and chemical engineering, this self-contained text includes the chapters based on the recent developments in the industry and academics. It covers the importance of the downstream processing in terms of its relevancy to modern days ever-changing consumer needs, process design criteria relevance to set objectives, and physicochemical factors that help to formulate the strategy to develop a configuration among the raw material, methodology and instruments. This overview is followed by different downstream processing steps. The text concludes with the discussion on stabilization of the product to improve the shelf life of the product.

Key Features :

Includes detailed biological, mathematical, chemical and physical aspects of downstream processing.

Distinguishes downstream processing from analytical bioseparation.

Contains numerous illustrations and solved problems.
