COVID-19 The Postgenomic Pandemic【電子書籍】[ Hugh Pennington ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Within days of the first reports of patients suffering from a mysterious pneumonia in Wuhan, scientists in China had produced a complete genetic sequence of the virus and confirmed that it was a novel SARS-like coronavirus. The genetic sequence was deposited in a public database, making the genetic code available to scientists anywhere in the world. The result was that weeks before the WHO declared the outbreak a global public health emergency and months before COVID-19 was formally designated a pandemic, virologists around the world were already studying the protein spikes on the virus and designing vaccines, which were developed much more quickly, and turned out to be much more effective, than even the most optimistic had predicted. All of this was possible because a biological revolution had taken place a decade earlier: the world had moved into the postgenomic era.</p> <p>In this book, the distinguished microbiologist Hugh Pennington argues that COVID-19 is the first ‘postgenomic pandemic’ ? that is, the first pandemic to sweep the world after the postgenomic era was initiated in 2008. Pennington explains the science behind this crucial development and shows how it has revolutionized our ways of understanding and dealing with pandemics, including the pandemic that brought our world to its knees.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Corona Chronicles On Leadership, Processes, Commitments, and Hope in Uncertain Times【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>COVID 19 or Coronavirus or Corona has undoubtedly affected every facet of life for every citizen of the world. In early 2020 most of the world had not even contemplated its name. Economic, health, labor, and social sectors have suffered tremendously during this pandemic. Education changed, quite literally, overnight. We now find ourselves in a digital landscape trying to engage with our 'new normal.' We realize that many educators from pre-schools through graduate colleges are engaging different realities other than what we are used to. These realities have sparked many narratives and stories, some verbalized, others shared on social media, and others still communicated within our contexts of learning.</p> <p>This groundbreaking volume, the second of two, carefully weaves together, over 33 chapters, perspectives on the processes, leadership, commitments, and hope associated with the experience of COVID-19. Both volumes center a commitment to not losing the power narrative - the power to chronicle, the power to transform, the power to inspire, the power to build allyship through hardship.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Games Changer The International Olympic Committee, Tokyo 2020, and COVID-19【電子書籍】[ Stephen R. Wenn ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>From the emergence of the COVID pandemic in early 2020 through the delayed staging of the Tokyo Olympic games in summer 2021, <em>A Games Changer</em> takes the reader behind the scenes to explore the myriad challenges the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Japanese officials faced during the months of uncertainty leading up not only to the postponement of the Games but also to their delayed.</p> <p>Drawing on a thorough review of contemporary newspaper and magazine coverage as well as personal interviews with current and former IOC officials, Stephen R. Wenn and Robert K. Barney examine Japan’s rising excitement in 2019 as preparations for the Games accelerated; whispers of a mysterious disease spreading first in China, then worldwide; organizers’ initial resolve to press forward with the Games; the tumultuous discussions that ultimately resulted in the joint March 2020 decision by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and IOC President Thomas Bach to postpone the Games; and the numerous negotiations with venues, media, and sponsors required to extend contracts and protect all parties’ health. Wenn and Barney reveal how human relationshipsーamong planners, politicians, competitors, and vaccine researchersーwere vital to presenting an Olympics where, in July and August 2021, world records were set, deferred dreams were achieved, and fears of a superspreader event went unrealized.</p> <p>While tracing the struggles of multiple athletes who had to pause their Olympic hopes and training as COVID-19 closed the world, Wenn and Barney focus on the journey of Canadian decathlete Damian Warner and his coach, Gar Leyshon. Denied his usual training venues, he prepared for the rescheduled Games with ingenuity, determination, and adaptability, reflective of the resilience demonstrated by Tokyo’s Olympians around the globe. The authors’ close account of Warner’s two days in Tokyo recaptures the excitement and drama of sport that home viewers sorely needed amid pandemic lockdowns and incalculable personal loss.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Moving Higher Education Beyond Covid-19 Innovative and Technology-Enhanced Approaches to Teaching and Learning【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p>The Covid-19 pandemic caused mass disruption to higher education institutions (HEIs) across the world and has since led to vast debate on how to manage HEIs and how to deliver course content to students beyond the crisis.

Drawing on international and multidisciplinary perspectives, <em>Moving Higher Education Beyond Covid-19</em> explores how HEIs may use crises as an opportunity to develop, to transform, and to improve their institutional resilience.</p> <p>Authors draw on many novel and innovative practices mastered during the pandemic, including approaches to teaching, and the related learning and managerial practices. Collectively, the authors argue that Covid-19 has served as one of the most important push factors for universities to redesign their approaches to teaching and learning, and thereby also rethink their business models.</p> <p>With insights for researchers, course designers, and higher education leaders, <em>Moving Higher Education Beyond Covid-19</em> is a must-read for moving your institution forward beyond the pandemic.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p>Domestic violence has had deep roots in human culture for as long as we can remember. With the coronavirus pandemic, domestic partners and families are left to spend more time together at home. Being in such close quarters for such a long time may inevitably result in increased stress levels.

Written in June 2021, this book looks at the relationship between COVID-19 and domestic violence in both heterosexual and same sex relationships in developed and developing countries, while also examining the available help for domestic violence during COVID-19.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Safety and Resilience of Higher Educational Institutions Considerations for a Post-COVID-19 Pandemic Analysis【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The world has spent the majority of 2020 enduring an unpreceded crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of this crisis has been enormous, and the situation has yet to be resolved. It is still difficult to anticipate when the pandemic will end and how our lives will have changed after the crisis.</p> <p>Higher educational institutions (HEIs) have also had to undergo tremendous transformation, in particular, changing a conventional educational, teaching, and learning system to a digital and online mode and cancelling or postponing important events such as graduation and entrance ceremonies and entrance examinations. In addition, a number of HEIs have been facing financial constraints due to reduced enrolment, particularly from overseas. Students have missed opportunities to meet their family and friends, causing profound psychosocial impact and stress for all concerned.</p> <p>Simultaneously, however, the situation has given HEIs a good opportunity to consider their disaster preparedness, response, and recovery capacity on campus. Some surveys have highlighted a lack of preparedness for pandemic and other hazardous risks beyond natural hazards. Safety issues are a top priority at HEIs because they bring together a number of students, faculty, and staff.</p> <p>This book covers the experiences and lessons learned from HEIs in preparedness, response, and recovery during the COVID-19 pandemic to prepare for such calamities beyond natural disasters in the future. The book consists of 15 chapters divided into three major sections. They highlight the importance of HEIs’ governance issues in disaster risk management, examine the challenges that HEIs have faced during the pandemic and the implementation of new teaching and learning methodologies, and provide innovative responses and preparedness by HEIs based on science and technology, respectively.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Practical Biopolitics of COVID-19 Indonesian and Russian Experiences【電子書籍】[ Andrey Makarychev ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Practical Biopolitics of COVID-19: Indonesian and Russian Experiences consists in applying biopolitical theorizing ? in particular, the concept of practical biopolitics ? as a framework for studying different experiences and policies of tackling health and medical crises. The book explains how the COVID-19 pandemic transformed the enormity of interconnections between life and politics, and the ensuing challenges for political actors in Indonesia and Russia.. Practical biopolitics as a concept includes different regimes of care and protection, along with different techniques of governing human lives and administering healthcare, conditioned by the self-securing and self-sustaining public “conduct of the conduct”. Practical biopolitics is a sub-field of that, which comprises analysis of specific policy practices and administrative and managerial tools, and the measures that governments apply to fight health threats. The book raises a number of questions: how did the COVID-19 state of global alert transform the conceptual vocabulary of politics? How different national experiences of crisis management during a pandemic might be compared with each other, and how these comparisons might be theorized in terms of national sovereignties, good governance, and public policy, and foreign policy?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>The spread of COVID-19 and the consequent pandemic since early 2020 have brought about unprecedented changes in all spheres of global life, creating a new sense of (in)security with social distancing, physical isolation, quarantine and lockdown becoming buzzwords to combat the disease. As in all spheres of life, the first wave of the pandemic posed serious challenges to the world of soccer, with diverse and intriguing responses across the globe.</p> <p>This book documents the early impressions and initial responses of various stakeholders of the soccer world to the challenges of COVID-19 in 2020. It reveals how the process of confrontation, negotiation, adjustment and overcoming against such challenges necessitated and inspired novel responses and strong improvisations from soccer bodies to players, referees to spectators, and journalists to sponsors. This process has revealed abrupt as well as radical changes in the organization, rules, spectatorship and telecast of the game, thereby affecting the game’s cultural dimensions, commercial prospects and political implications. The volume points out that the way soccer has adjusted to the ‘new normal’ standard of the ‘COVID Regime’ has elicited newer meanings and nuanced representations of the game.</p> <p>The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, <em>Soccer & Society</em>.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Viral Spiral A Collection of Chilling Poems and Photos About Covid-19 and Black Lives Matter (Full Color)【電子書籍】[ Sarah P. Ross ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The pandemic of our lifetime, the era of Covid-19, was a time of mystery, death, and fear as never before seen. It revealed the nurse’s face imprinted red as she cried behind her mask and the EMT loading soon-to-be-dead onto the ambulance. Amidst the Food Bank’s love and sustenance was news of Captain Crozier’s termination, fired for trying to save his men from Covid’s annihilation. Even Governor Cuomo acted as the surrogate president as New Yorkers clapped from their windows to thank first responders for their magic, and people stayed home, always to celebrate alone.</p> <p>It was just the time when nothing made sense and everything reeked of false pretense. It was a time when working for gratuity changed to delivery, when jobs were all gone and bills pilled overwhelmingly high! Stocks plummeted radically. Another Depression was nigh. Drugs became the crutch for each hour, and abuse of all sorts ruled rampid with power. There is no escape when one’s quarantined; children learned a way of life not meant to be. Nursing homes hid the dead bodies of their residents, while all people of color died disproportionately. The meat-packers were forced to work against their own will; Native Americans once again, by a virus, were killed. The homeless had to endure even more suffering, but for the first time, from Coronavirus, our air became clean.</p> <p>George Floyd started his own pandemic for the BLACK LIVES MATTER task as the president gassed peaceful protestors to clear a path, never wearing a mask, his followers to never dare ask. The virus continued to baffle and control as Americans writhed from its pain. The world had changed. All had changed. Yet graduates, though masked, pretended all was the same. Wearing masks, they flung hats up with glee, while uncaring asymptomatics spread the virus epidemically. Monuments of hate and slavery came toppling down, and the sound of protest continued to erupt. A child’s birthday was celebrated by her black daddy being gunned down, where he only awkwardly slept.</p> <p>The bounty of our soldiers rages with this virus today. It is no surprise that innocent children are being caged. “Live and let die” dictated the day that we all blindly march in Corona’s parade.</p> <p>Viral Spiral is a book that details the various dramatic aspects of the coronavirus pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement. Each poem is accompanied by real-life photos of Covid-19 and Black Lives Matter content. The marriage of these photos with each jaw-dropping poem will overwhelm the reader.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Invasion of Evil King COVID-19: Baby and the Pandemic: Who Stole My World?【電子書籍】[ Alira Nair ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>By the time Alira is born, the entire world is under the grip of the evil king COVID-19. She does not find the beautiful world her mother had described to her while she was still her mother’s stomach. What Alira sees is a world of fear, despair and helplessness. She hears words like social distancing, quarantine, lockdown and face mask instead of flowers, trees, children and animals. No one comes to visit her; no one brings her flowers and gifts.</p> <p>Meantime, the world is in a state of paralysis by the rising numbers in infection and death caused by the sinister virus. Over 30 million people have fallen victims to the virus, and close to a million are dead. The scientists have, so far, not found a formula for a medicine to treat the sick. They have not succeeded in developing a vaccine to prevent people from getting infected. Millions of children miss schools and stay confined to homes.</p> <p>Alira represents the 385,000 babies who were born on the same day she was born. She is among the 104 million babies born in 2020 upto September. Will the 2.1 Billion children born during the last fifteen years, become a ‘lost generation’? Or will the virus be wiped out from the face of the globe to allow humanity to lead the everyday life?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Higher Education and Disaster Capitalism in the Age of COVID-19【電子書籍】[ Marina Vujnovic ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book reveals the layered effects of the corporatization of higher education, situated within the phenomenon of disaster capitalism. The authors argue that higher education administrators have seized on the Covid-19 pandemic as an opportunity to advance a corporate higher education agenda consistent with the principles of disaster capitalism. This crisis deeply impacts what and how students in the United States learn, who gets to learn, and the very mission of the academy. Chapters also address neoliberalism as a policy statement that has reshaped and continues to shape higher education in the United States and in much of Western societies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>If you love Sudoku puzzles and enjoy word games, this book delightfully combines both. And while you are having fun solving XYZ-DoKu mystery message puzzles, you will also be learning all about the horrific 21st century CORONAVIRUS that traveled around the world. This entertaining XYZ-DoKu mystery message puzzle book includes a two-fold tutorial which not only teaches you how to successfully solve the puzzles, but explains the worldwide COVID-19 outbreak -- and that is what each and every XYZ-DoKu mystery message is about!</p> <p>XYZ-DoKu solvers will find that the rules to figuring out these large print puzzles are the same as number sudokus, only they must fill in the grid with letters instead. When the puzzle is successfully completed, the mystery message solution will appear on the blank line.</p> <p>As a former school counselor, I affirm with 100% certainty that puzzle-doers everywhere--from Middle School age through middle age and beyond (and educators of ALL AGES, especially), will find these XYZ-DoKu mystery message puzzles are a most effective learning tool. They are challenging, brain-enhancing, and so much fun to do, particularly in these most trying times.</p> <p>About the Author</p> <p>As a former Middle School Counselor, I have created word puzzles for over 25 years, and I have helped students with problems reduce their stress levels by teaching them how to create, design, and solve all kinds of puzzles, including word finds, cryptograms, and sudokus. Consequently, what I ultimately discovered was that my XYZ-DoKu puzzles (sudokus with letters and mystery messages) were especially fun for mostly everyone I encountered, from Middle School-aged students --and their teachers, too-- through middle-aged (and beyond). Also, for many years I had designed XYZ-DoKu puzzles for my retirement community newspaper, each with a different monthly mystery message. My puzzles have always proven to be thoroughly relaxing, challenging, and brain-enhancing, and so very enjoyable for all!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
