Authors: Rili Prihatmantyo Rianto , Widyanto Utut
Published: November 2022

Bising merupakan sumber bunyi yang sifatnya mengganggu indera pendengaran manusia. Siswa di sekolah yang terletak berdekatan dengan jalan raya akan sangat terganggu dengan kebisingan yang ditimbulkan oleh transportasi. SMAN 1 Bulakamba dan SMPN 2 Bulakamba merupakan contoh sekolah yang berada di jalur pantura (pantai utara) di Kebupaten Brebes. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis tingkat kebisingan di sekolah akibat kendaraan yang melewati jalur pantura serta memberikan rekomendasi pengendalian tingkat kebisingan jika tingkat kebisingan melewati baku tingkat kebisingan 55 dB(A). Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan mengukur tingkat kebisingan dasar yang timbul di sekolah, kemudian dikoreksi menggunakan pedoman dari Department of Transport Welsh Office (1988) yaitu Calculation of Road Traffic Noise. Dari hasil analisis didapatkan proporsi kendaraan berat yang melewati depan SMAN 1 Bulakamba sebesar 20,28% dan pada SMPN 2 Bulakamba sebesar 15,76%.  Tingkat kebisingan akhir terkoreksi pada gedung kelas terdekat dari tepi jalan di SMAN 1 Bulakamba rata-rata 36,7 dB(A) dan di SMPN 2 Bulakamba rata-rata 57,95 dB(A). Menurut ketentuan Baku Tingkat Kebisingan Kepmen LH (1996), yaitu maksimal sebesar 55 dB(A), sehingga di SMPN 2 Bulakamba belum memenuhi persyaratan. Untuk itu dilakukan upaya mengurangi kebisingan, seperti menambahkan vegetasi (pohon dan rumput) di sepanjang tembok pagar sekolah

Authors: Nitin Padole
Published: November 2022

In Recent year's medication obstruction is a quickly developing issue over the whole world in the treatment of infectious diseases. The widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics produced antibiotic resistance for many human bacterial pathogens. Anyways right now, nanotechnology research has been engaging more in restorative businesses with various advantages because of the way that surface area to volume proportion of Nanoparticles is quite large. In this exploration work, Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) are prepared by using a reducing agent like sodium borohydride and capping agent Polyvinylpyrrolidone. The prepared AgNPs and Cefixime-loaded AgNPs were subjected to characterization like particle size, FT-IR, X-ray diffraction. In addition, the AgNPs draw much interest in the account of their powerful antibacterial movement. The antibacterial activity of AgNPs and Cefixime-loaded AgNPs was checked against the bacterial culture of Staphylococcus Aureus. The zone of inhibition AgNPs was checked against microorganisms. The results of this study demonstrate the antibacterial activity of AgNPs and Cefixime-loaded Silver Nanoparticles against the bacterial culture of Staphylococcus Aureus with synergistic activity
In silico screening and identification of leads against multi-targets of type II diabetes in Plectranthus vettiveroides
Authors: S Sreekumar
Published: November 2022

Generally, phytochemicals have activity on multi-targets and such molecules have been used as effective drugs against the diseases caused by multi-factorial causation like diabetes mellitus (DM). Plectranthus vettiveroides (Jacob) N.P. Singh & B.D. Sharma has been used as a polychrest against various diseases including type II diabetes in tradition system of medicine. The present investigation aimed to validate anti-diabetic property of the root derived essential oil of P. vettiveroides and identification of leads with activity on six targets of DM through in silico method. A total of 78 phytochemicals determined through Gas chromatography –mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the essential oil were docked with each of the six selected targets namely 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, dipeptidyl peptidase IV, protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B, human pancreatic alpha-amylase, human lysosomal acid-alpha-glucosidase, and phosphorylated insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. The structures of the phytochemicals were retrieved from PubChem and the targets were retrieved from Protein Data Bank (PDB). Docking was carried out in AutoDockVina and the molecules with free energy of binding ≤-6 kcal/mol were considered as hit molecule. Out of 78 phytochemicals screened, 39 have activity on all the tested targets. Based on the docking interaction, drug-likeness and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) property the best lead molecule against each target were determined. The overall results revealed that basically majority of the hits are terpinoides and not induced any toxicity. Therefore, the oil as such can be recommended as medicament against DM, since the individual, synergistic and cumulative effect of phytochemicals may concomitantly inhibit multi-targets of DM and act as an effective drug.
In vivo application of Oreochromis niloticus scales collagen as alternative wound healing therapy
Authors: Ishak Reezal
Published: November 2022

Fish collagen derived from its skins, scales or bones are known to have many advantages in medical and pharmaceutical applications. This study evaluates the effectiveness of collagen extracted from the scales of local Malaysian Oreochromis niloticus or red Nile tilapia fish, on wound healing in an animal model. 21 male BALB/c mice were divided into three different groups namely the control group, Oreochromis niloticus acid-solubilized collagen extracts treated group; and acriflavine treated group. A full thickness surgical wound of about 1.5 cm were inflicted on the dorsal area of the animal. Treatment with collagen extracts and acriflavine were applied daily on the wounds and measured every day for 9 days. The mice were randomly sacrificed on day 3, 6, and 9, and the skin samples were taken for histological assessment. After 3 days, treatment with collagen extracts and acriflavine recorded an average wound measurement of 7.84±0.32 mm and 7.14±0.32, respectively. On day 9, the progress of wound healing showed significant differences. Mice treated with collagen extracts recorded an average wound measurement of 1.27±0.08 mm, as compared to 3.26±0.05 mm of acriflavine treated, and 3.36±0.18 mm of the control group. The wound assessment showed that collagen extracted from the scales of local Oreochromis niloticus fish produced significant results based on the skin re-epithelialization process and formation of new blood vessels. This finding indicates that collagen extracted from the local Oreochromis niloticus scales possessed effective wound healing properties for surgical wounds as demonstrated on the skin of the animal model.
Antimicrobial sensitivity testing of levonadifloxacin – A novel benzoquinolizine drug against MRSA isolates in a tertiary care hospital
Authors: Krishnakumar Sharanya
Published: November 2022

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) adds a significant burden for health-care workers. In India there is a significant rise in prevalence of Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus recently. Treatment has become very difficult among the resistant Staphylococcal isolates. Currently vancomycin and linezolid are the commonly used antibiotics. But these drugs have their adverse effects. Hence improved bactericidal antibiotics with increased tissue penetration and low possibility of developing resistance and safe to be used in chronic cases should be used for management of Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections. The drug Levonadifloxacin acts actively against Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Quinolone - resistant Staphylococcus aureus phenotypes. Recently in India, levonadifloxacin has been approved for the treatment of various infections like acute bacterial skin and soft tissue infections with complicating blood stream infections and also for diabetes complicating infections. Hence we evaluated the activity of levonadifloxacin (10g) by Kirby– Bauer disk diffusion assay against Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates in the central laboratory of a tertiary care centre for a period of 1year between May 2021 to April 2022. 296 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were identified from various clinical samples. Based on the results of disc diffusion test using Cefoxitin disc, Of the 296 Staphylococcus aureus isolates 104 were methicillin resistant and the rest of the 192 were methicillin sensitive. Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates were tested against levonadifloxacin by disc diffusion which yielded 100% susceptibility rate. Hence this study displays potent activity of the drug levonadifloxacin against Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates and is recommended for therapeutic use.

Role of Multilingualism in developing spirit of tolerance and harmony
Authors: Rahman Dr Mukhlesur
Published: November 2022

In the interconnected and globalized world, multilingualism has a great role to play in creating a peaceful global society based on mutual understanding, solidarity, tolerance, affection and compassion. We know that the world has witnessed two World Wars, and continues to witness international conflicts, regional disputes, local unrests and sectarian clashes. Have we contemplated why all these happen, here and there, now and then? If we ponder upon, we will find that most of these conflicts and disputes occur due to linguistic, ethnic, religious, ideological or economic differences. And the reason behind it is that everyone refuses to recognize the other, his language, race, religion, and ideology. On the other hand everyone – individual or community or state - wants to achieve his own goals and objectives at the expense of the other. This is where clashes and disputes emanate from. This is what called "unilateral theory" where one party does not recognize or respect the other leading to the marginalization of the weaker by the stronger, which further leads to sowing the seeds of hatred and hostility, clash and conflict. So, to my belief, the recognition of pluralism - linguistic, cultural, religious, ethnic and ideological - can prove to be the only solution to many conflicts and disputes. Hence, this paper will focus on why we should encourage and promote multilingualism and how it develops the spirit of tolerance and understanding in the multilingual personalities.

Word Order variation in L1 and L2 Italian speakers: the role of Focus and the Unaccusativity Hierarchy
Authors: Tasinato Caterina , Sanfelici Emanuela
Published: November 2022

This paper investigates the Italian Word Order variation in the position of subjects (S) with respect to finite predicates (V) in two adult populations: L1-Italian speakers and L1-French L2-Italian speakers. We test how discourse focus (Belletti, 2001) and a decomposed approach to Unaccusativity, i.e., Unaccusativity Hierarchy (Sorace, 2000), determine the SV/VS variation in L1 and L2 populations. The results of a forced-choice preference task show that both factors constrain the Italian word order in L1 and L2 Italian speakers: the VS order was preferred in the narrow focus and with Change of Location unaccusative verbs in both populations, although with different proportions. Overall L2 speakers chose the SV order more consistently than L1 speakers but they did so mainly with the less-core unaccusative verbs of the Unaccusativity Hierarchy. We account for these findings suggesting a return to the original version of the Interface Hypothesis (Sorace, 2005), which predicts that interface phenomena, including those at the syntax-lexicon interface, represent a vulnerable domain in L2 acquisition.

Published: November 2022

Academic resilience becomes an important psychological factor that can help first-year undergraduate students in facing various challenges in the early period of university. Some researchers reported that self-efficacy has a role in the formation of resilience in individuals. The present study attempted to investigate the role of academic self-efficacy in academic resilience among the first-year undergraduate students. A total of 400 students (61.75% female) in Universitas Andalas were recruited as research subjects through the purposive sampling technique. Measures used in the study were the Academic Resilience Scale-30 (ARS-30) adapted from Cassidy (2016) and the Academic Self-efficacy Scale was constructed based on the theory of Bandura (1997). The simple linear regression analysis results showed that academic self-efficacy had a significant and positive effect on academic resilience by about 60.2%. Therefore, the level of academic self-efficacy among first-year undergraduate students had an important role in increasing the level of academic resilience in facing the university life. In addition, the current study also found that students in this research had a moderate level of academic self-efficacy and academic resilience.

Authors: Nurina Putri , Hermatasiyah Nur
Published: November 2022

This study aims to compare mental health conditions between students who attend islamic boarding schools and those in public schools that are assessed during the Covid 19 pandemic. It is hoped that using a literature study approach and qualitative methods through open questionnaire techniques and interviews, it will be possible to present a true picture of the mental health situation in both students today. The results showed that students attending boarding schools were more vulnerable to mental health risks compared to students who attended public schools. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused symptoms of PTSD and depression among adolescents aged 16 to 19. This symptom is more commonly experienced by students who attend islamic boarding schools. In general, most respondents are satisfied with online education, but still most students are not comfortable with this new form of learning. The results provide insight into under-researched subjects, helping to highlight potential intervention points to support community mental health programs in the boarding school student population.

The State of the Art in Blended Learning Research in a Time of the Covid-19 Pandemic: Coronavirus Diaries in the Educational Realm
Authors: Bozkurt Aras , Marin Victoria I , Lee Kyungmee , Cefa Sari Berrin
Published: November 2022

The Covid-19 pandemic was a crisis on a global scale, and it impacted not only our lives but also our understanding of the educational landscape. There were many waves of the pandemic at varying levels and as these waves hit our globe, the way we live and see the world has been changing. Consequently, we entered a time which was called the new normal which required being flexible, resilient, and adaptive. The educational landscape has also been challenged by the waves of the pandemic. The onsite (face-to-face) learning was replaced by online distance learning which was attributed as emergency remote teaching and learning in many cases. As the new normal forced us to change our traditional notions and practices, many higher education institutions adopted blended learning to benefit from opportunities of both modalities, that is, onsite and online learning. In this regard, this study implements a systematic approach to examine papers published in the first two years of the pandemic on blended learning. For this purpose, the study adopts social network analysis and text mining to examine a total of 104 peer-reviewed publications. The initial findings identified four broad themes. Accordingly, these are (1) diversity and confusion in the blended learning terminology, (2) Learning experiences and effectiveness of blended learning practices, (3) technology-dominated and online-mediated blended learning approaches, and (4) blended learning for applied and practical courses. The paper discusses these themes, provides suggestions, and explains implications for future research directions.

Published: November 2022

The present study was aimed to assess the genetic polymorphism of growth hormone (GH) gene in Jaisalmeri and Sindhi camels using polymerase chain reactionâ€“restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique. Genomic DNA were isolated from venous blood samples collected from 93 Indian camels (Jaisalmeri- 38 and Sindhi-55 camels) and 613-base pair fragment of GH gene was amplified from each genomic DNA sample by polymerase chain reaction. The PCR-RFLP was done using restriction enzyme MspI which revealed three genotypes, viz. CC, CT and TT in both the breeds. Our result indicated that both the breeds were polymorphic in nature. The corresponding genotype frequency in Jaisalmeri and Sindhi breeds were 0.474 and 0.345 for the CC, 0.395 and 0.564 for CT, 0.131 and 0.091 for TT genotypes and the corresponding C allele frequency was 0.671 and 0.627 and T allele frequency was 0.329 and 0.373. The CT genotype was found predominant in the Sindhi breed, whereas CC genotype was predominant in Jaisalmeri breed. The frequency of C allele was higher than the T allele in both of the breeds. These camel populations were in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium indicating that the populations meet the HWE assumptions and genetic variations were conserved. It could be concluded that Jaisalmeri and Sindhi camels having different genetic variants of GH gene might be investigated for production a DNA marker for growth and production traits in Indian camels.

Published: November 2022

The present study was carried out to assess the effect of repeat breeding syndrome (RBS) on heamatological, antioxidant, oxidative stress and endocrinological profiles in crossbred cows under tropical island ecosystem of Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Each of the twelve number of cows was selected (which were affected with repeat breeding syndrome) as Group 2 and normal cyclic breeding cows as Group 1. These cows were maintained under similar type of managemental conditions. Heamatological profiles, antioxidant and hormone profiles were estimated by automatic blood analyser and commercial diagnostic kits, respectively. The result revealed that the crossbred cows with RBS suffered severe anaemia. The RBS affected animals showed significantly lower level of antioxidant profiles and significantly higher malondialdehyde (MDA) than the unaffected animal groups. Similarly, endocrinological profiles revealed that the RBS affected animals had significantly higher level of cortisol, prolactin and lower level of 17 Î²-estradiol (E2), progesterone (P4), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), thyroxine (T4) and insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) than the unaffected crossbred cows. The study concluded that the RBS was due to anaemia, lack of antioxidants, overproduction of free radicals and disturbances of endocrinological profiles in crossbred cows of Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

Systematic management of Plant Genetic Resources (PGRs) is the key to sustainable agriculture for food and nutritional security and in mitigating climate change. The National Genebank (NGB) at ICAR-National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources (NBPGR), New Delhi, acts as a repository of PGRs for future use. This study aimed at screening for the adventitious presence of transgenes in brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) accessions conserved in the NGB. The study targeted the collections made during 2007-2016 from areas adjacent to Bangladesh (Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Tripura and West Bengal), where field trials of Bt brinjal event EE1 were conducted during 2005-2012 and commercial cultivation of this event was permitted in 2013.There could be an apprehension of both unintentional introgression and transboundary movement through borders. Adventitious presence of transgenes was checked in a set of 96 accessions of brinjal employing Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR assays. As event EE1 carries cry1Ac gene for insect resistance with Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) promoter (P-35S) and marker genes (nptII and aadA), so these genetic elements were targeted for qualitative GM testing. Based on the test results, transgenes were not detected in brinjal accessions conserved in NGB. Our study showed that brinjal and wild species collected from adjoining areas of Bangladesh, post field trials and release, do not contain the event EE1. The study presents an efficient and reliable method to ensure conservation of GM-free germplasm in the NGB.

Authors: Saleh Raynaldi Muhammad
Published: November 2022

Endorsement agreements are developments that occur in society and there are no laws that specifically regulate endorsement agreements. Along with the many needs of endorsement agreements, problems arise such as the non-fulfillment of subjective and objective conditions that cause the endorsement agreement to be canceled. The existence of an agreement, the parties should carry out the agreement in accordance with what has been agreed (consesus), but there are actions that actually violate what has been agreed. The purpose of this research is carried out regarding the unfulfilled conditions of the validity of the agreement between the owner of the online shop and the endorser on Instagram social media. The research method is normative juridical, which is descriptive analysis with literature study data collection techniques. Based on the results of the research, the legal basis for endorsement agreements on Instagram social media according to applicable regulations in Indonesia refers to articles 1313 and 1320 of the Civil Code for the legal side of the agreement and the Law Number 11 Year 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactionsarticle 5 to article 12 for the validity of endorsement agreements made online. The legal consequences of online business cooperation agreement transactions that do not meet the requirements of the validity of the agreement between online shop owners and endorsers on Instagram social media are that online buying and selling transactions are difficult to execute or real action in the event of a dispute or criminal act of fraud. Legal protection for the parties in the endorsement agreement in the event of default by one of the parties can be done by taking litigation or non-litigation.

Integral Development of the Historical City Centres of Ukraine
Authors: RYBCHYNSKYI OLEG
Published: November 2022

The subject of this study is the signs of integrated development and the reasons for the intermittent success of the historical cities of Ukraine. City centres from settlements different in size and function were included in this study: Chernihiv, Lyubech, Baturyn, Romny, Chyhyryn, Motovylivka, Nizhyn, which testify that the tradition of integral development of the centres of historical cities of Ukraine is ancient. City governments and magnates in different ways supervised safety, production, and trade infrastructure, and improved the public space of market squares. The inner parts of the historical cities of Ukraine developed individually, had different goals and opportunities, used separate resources, and tried to achieve similar results - a harmonious socio-economic environment. Unfortunately, a thorough destruction of the historical cities of Ukraine as a result of the aggression of Moscow-Russian troops occurred during the 17th and early 21st centuries. In conclusion, it was noted that the logical area of long-term development of Ukrainian historical cities is the analysis and reproduction of historical and urban traditions, active implementation of revitalisation projects, and restoration of tangible cultural legacy. The study uses methods of structural analysis of spatial characteristics of planning and functional-territorial features of the city centres, processing and sampling the information in literary and archival sources. The purpose of the study is to determine the signs of integrated development of the centres of historical cities of Ukraine. The results of the study can be used in monument protection activities and practical work on the regeneration of the central part of the historical cities of Ukraine

Authors: CHEN LESYA , YAVNA NATALIA
Published: November 2022

The design of the main entrances in cathedrals and churches has always been one of the main tasks of artists. Realising the importance of the entrance to the Temple of God, the sculptors tried to design it in the form of a portal and give it prominence with an original sculpturesque design. This study covers the features of the architectural and artistic structure of the main portal of the Church of the Mother of God in Velykyi Khodachkiv, justifies its artistic value, examines the technical condition of the newly discovered monument, and identifies aspects of the restoration of the portal. Based on the general scientific and special restoration research methods used, the paper investigated the style characteristics of the portal, identified the main reasons for the degradation of the monument, and developed a set of restoration measures. In the study, based on literary sources and field surveys, an attempt to investigate the influence of one of the main architectural elements of the temple decoration – the portal, on the architectonics of the main facade of the shrine was made. Special attention was drawn to the unexplored Velykyi Khodachkiv Church in the Ternopil region, which is in a dilapidated state with an interesting architectural design of the main entrance. The architectural, artistic, and compositional design of the entrance portal of the Church of the Mother of God the Comforter and St. Joseph in Velykyi Khodachkiv was analysed in detail. Its stylistic and proportional solutions were examined. The portal is characterised by the expressiveness of architectural details, the integrity and aesthetics of this work of art were created according to the laws of beauty. Based on a thorough study of the features inherent in the portal, its architectural and artistic value was determined, and its technical condition was investigated. The Church of the Mother of God the Comforter in the former town of Velykyi Khodachkiv, Ternopil region, is not included in the Register of architectural monuments of Ukraine, so there is little information about the monument under study. Overlooked by researchers and art historians, the church has been in ruins for centuries and continues to collapse. The results of the study can be used in the system of historical and architectural education and practical restoration activities
Recovering Sample Authorship: The Case of Sohan Lal
Authors: McGuinness Chris
Published: November 2022

As digital samplers became more prominent during the 1990s, the «soundware» industry grew, providing sample libraries for music producers to use in their derivative works. South Asian sounds have long occupied a place in this market while being advertised as «world» sounds. In this article, ethnomusicologist Chris McGuinness discusses the case of Sohan Lal, a Punjabi singer whose voice ended up in such a sample library and was used in many popular songs. McGuinness shows how sampling aesthetics and Lal’s anonymity are intertwined, yet also a product of Indian musical lineages.
Ain’t Nothing Wrong (With Political Dance Music)
Authors: Fusaro Francesco
Published: November 2022

Most lives in the Western World are imbued with social media ennui (Stephen 2018), fed with fake news, and intoxicated on highly divisive political discourse, both off- and online (Silverman et al. 2017). In such a complex digital environment, what is a house music track that incorporates the voice of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez trying to achieve? In this article, music scholar and producer Francesco Fusaro discusses one of his sample-based tracks. As he argues, it is through the voice that dance music has proven a fertile territory for the expression of the political and social concerns that underpinned its history from the very beginning.
Spreading Cultural Heritage Through Remix and App Technology
Authors: Figueiró Christiano , Lima Henrique Souza
Published: November 2022

Cristiano Figueiró and Henrique Souza Lima created a track made by sampling, editing, and remixing recordings from a performance made by the Brazilian group Côco de Umbigada (CdU). In this article, Figuerió and Souza Lima contextualize the CdU as a cultural and political agent in the city of Olinda, Brazil, and they describe the choices they made while working with the recorded material. Furthermore, they introduce the app Esmeril, which was used in the production process, as a platform for tweaking recorded audio on the fly. The creative work the two Brazilian sound researchers present here is contextualized through their political understanding of working at the intersections of sound, technology, and cultural heritage.

Islam and the Wonders of Creation: THE ANIMAL KINGDOM
Authors: SCHIMMEL ANNEMARIE
Published: November 2022

Annemarie Schimmel focuses in this book on the extent to which Islamic culture has taken interest in the animal kingdom. So much so that animal names have been used as human names, animal stories have featured in literature and animals’ examples have been used to explain ideas, theories and concepts. This in addition to the many similarities drawn from the animal kingdom found in literature and poetry. Professor Schimmel has surveyed the mention of animals and birds by Muslim authors and reviewed such mentions in a number of languages in which she is proficient, namely Arabic, Turkish, Sindi and Persian. Special attention was given to poetry in this regard. She holds that animals form an important part of the Islamic heritage, as the mention of animals has been made in the Qurʾān more than in any other holy book. She also points out that animals can be symbolic for profound spiritual truths.
الموازنة بين المصالح والمفاسد في التداوي بنقل الأعضاء البشرية
Authors: يحياوي عبد الغني
Published: November 2022

هذا الكتاب متميّز في بابه، مهمّ في موضوعه، متفرّد في مضمونه، رصين في معالجته لقضية طبية راهنة، سواء من الناحية النظرية أو التطبيقية، إذ جاء بإضافات نوعيّة، وعالج صاحبه الموضوع انطلاقا من قواعد الشريعة ومقاصدها وآراء المختصين والأطباء، وجاء استنباط الأحكام بناء على توظيف مفهوم الموازنة بين المصالح والمفاسد، وبذلك تمت الإجابة عن مجموعة من الاشكالات من قبيل: إلى أي حد يُعتبر التداوي ضرورة، وهل تباح من أجله المحظورات؟ وما موقف الشريعة الإسلامية من تبرّع الإنسان بأعضائه؟ وهل موت الدماغ نهاية للحياة؟ وأين تتجلى المصالح والمفاسد في الاستفادة من أعضاء الأحياء وجثث الموتى من أجل التداوي؟ وتكمن أهميّة دراسة الموازنة بين المصالح والمفاسد في نقل الأعضاء البشرية، في كونها مبنية على مقابلة المصلحة والمفسدة الشرعيتين، مع مراعاة الواقع والمتوقع وتقدير واعتبار المآلات. وقد عرض المؤلف الموضوع في فصل تمهيدي وبابين، تضمّن الفصل التمهيدي المفاهيم المؤسسة للبحث، أما الباب الأول فبيّن فيه حكم نقل الأعضاء من الأحياء ممثلا بالأعضاء الأكثر نقلا وتداولا وهي الكُلية وجزء من الكبد والجلد والنخاع العظمي، مع الموازنة بين ما يلحق كلا من المتبرّع والمتبرّع له من مصالح ومفاسد والموازنة بينهما، وفي ذلك رفع للحرج عن الأطباء والمرضى بشكل خاص، وعن المجتمع بشكل عام. وتناول في الباب الثاني «حكم نقل الأعضاء من الأموات»، نظرا لراهنيته والحاجة الملحة جدا في التطرق اليه، في زمن اختلطت فيه الأمور، وتعدّدت الآراء والاجتهادات، وقد فصل المؤلف القول في موت الدماغ بين الطب والشرع، ومثل بالأعضاء الأكثر نقلا كالقلب والرئة والبنكرياس والقرنية. مبينا حكمها انطلاقا من التصور الطبي وآراء الفقه الاسلامي والقواعد المقاصدية والأصولية والقانون.
Oil & War: How the Deadly Struggle for Fuel in World War II Meant Victory or Defeat, reprint edition
Authors: Goralski Robert , Freeburg Russell W.
Published: November 2022

The world’s economy runs on oil. People steal for it. Nations kill for it. To win a war, the victor must have enough oil to fuel their tanks, ships, and planes. One of the great untold stories of World War II is about the strategic decisions and combat for the control of enough oil so that the Axis powers could wage an aggressive war. Conversely, the Allied powers were determined to keep oil from the Axis. Oil & War, originally published in 1987, was the first book to explain this intricate dance of death from the view-points of both the Axis and Allied sides. Adolf Hitler began planning his grab for oil-producing lands in the 1930s; he also started building plants capable of producing synthetic fuels. The Japanese had their plans too. The Americans, English, and Australians had to counterpunch. They very nearly lost the war because they did not move quickly enough. The race was far closer than previously believed. Truth is stranger than fiction. Novels and wargames based on the strategies for oil have captured the public’s attention. But here is the real story. This anecdotal narrative about the important role that oil played in World War II provides a view of the forces that controlled the greatest war in history—and a stunning analysis of the importance of oil in terms of world peace for years to come.
Information Warfare: Forging Communication Strategies for Twenty-first Century Operational Environments
Authors: Farwell James P.
Published: November 2022

Great political and military leaders understand that communication strategies are key to victory in any conflict. Seizing the narrative can enable victory while failure to do so yields that advantage to the adversary. Gone are the days when competing armies confronted one another across battlefields. The information environment has made engagements and conflict both local and global all at once such that—as never before—information warfare is critical to victory. Understanding culture, history, local political dynamics, the interactions of different players, and the need to forge cohesive communication plans at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels matters more than ever to commanders and operators. In Information Warfare, James P. Farwell describes how commanders and operators must and can define winning outcomes and the strategies, operations, and tactics to achieve them. He lays out concrete, actionable steps to get results and places them in historical context, then provides a workbook to assist readers in devising communication strategies that produce victory in the sphere of information warfare.
An Annotated Guide to Tactics: Carl von Clausewitz's Theory of the Combat
Authors: Garard Olivia A.
Published: November 2022

The philosophy on which the Marine Corps’ seminal warfighting doctrine is based rests on a tradition of professional military scholarship that reaches back to Carl von Clausewitz’s treatise On War. Clausewitz’s lesser-known and often-misunderstood Guide to Tactics, republished here for the first time as a standalone English text with critical annotations, serves as the foundation of the Marine Corps’ warfighting philosophy and provides a guide to thinking about the nature of tactics and combat for the modern warfighter.
