This comprehensive and fully updated edition of Birds of Senegal and The Gambia is the ultimate guide for travellers and birdwatchers visiting one of Africa's richest birdwatching regions. The Gambia, together with the country that envelops it, Senegal, has an avifauna of more than 700 regularly occurring species, including many Western Palearctic migrants from September to April, and a significant list of highly sought-after resident West African birds, including the Egyptian Plover. This authoritative guide covers all species, including details of all residents, migrants and known vagrants. Senegal and The Gambia offer a true wealth of birdlife, including a fantastic selection of Sahel specialities that are far more easily seen here than anywhere else. Senegal has become a reliable locality for Golden Nightjar, Quail-plover and Cricket Warbler, and the near-endemic Mali Firefinch occurs in the southeast of the country. Birdwatchers in this region can also find Savile's Bustard, Adamawa Turtle Dove, Little Grey Woodpecker, Yellow Penduline Tit, Sudan Golden Sparrow and Exclamatory Paradise Whydah, while the Saloum delta's huge roost of tens of thousands of African Swallow-tailed Kites is one of the world's top birding spectacles. More than 140 stunning colour plates depict every species and also comprehensively cover all the distinct plumages and subspecies likely to be encountered. Concise species accounts describe key identification features, status, range, habitat and voice, with fully updated distribution maps for each species. This compact guide is an essential companion for any birder visiting this rich and varied area of Western Africa.

This book provides the first comprehensive account of the New EU Competition Law: an emerging understanding of the discipline that breaks from the consensus that emerged in the early 2000s and that leads it into uncharted territories. Competition law has undergone fundamental transformations in the past decade: from the rise and fall of the 'effects-based approach' to the challenge of Big Tech and the growing interaction with intellectual property. Making sense of these changes and fully grasping their implications can be difficult. The book discusses the shift from traditional enforcement in the industrial era to the sort of regulatory intervention that a knowledge-based economy demands. It presents the changes that the field is undergoing (policy priorities, relationship with regulation and intangible assets, move away from efficiency and consumer welfare) and illustrates them by reference to the most significant developments in the field.The analysis includes an up-to-date evaluation of the Digital Markets Act and discusses the application of EU competition law to key areas, including energy, pharma, telecommunications, and online platforms. The companion website (https://www.bloomsburyonlineresources.com/the-new-eu-competition-law) provides access to the data behind the charts and tables included in the book, and gives readers the tools to investigate the latest developments in this fast-changing area.Conceived as a 'modular' book, practitioners and advanced students will find it useful as a map to navigate the underlying trends in the field and as an in-depth dissection of the key case law and administrative practice of the past decade.

This concise and practical guide takes students step-by-step through the writing process, and covers core aspects of academic writing, from understanding the task and researching the topic through to composing a draft, editing copy and responding to feedback.

Constructing Race on the Borders of Europe investigates the visual imagery of race construction in Scandinavia, Austro-Hungary, Germany, and Russia. It covers a period when historic disciplines of ethnography and anthropology were expanding and theorists of race were debating competing conceptions of biological, geographic, linguistic, and cultural determinants. Beginning in 1850 and extending into the early 21st century, this book explores how paintings, photographs, prints, and other artistic media engaged with these discourses and shaped visual representations of subordinate ethnic populations and material cultures in countries associated with theorizations of white identity.The chapters contribute to postcolonial research by documenting the colonial-style treatment of minority groups, by exploring the anomalies and complexities that emerge when binary systems are seen from the perspective of the fine and applied arts, and by representing the voices of those who produced images or objects that adopted, altered, or critiqued ethnographic and anthropological information. In doing so, Constructing Race on the Borders of Europe uncovers instances of unexpected connections, establishes the fabricated nature of ethnic identity, and challenges the certainties of racial categorization. It is essential reading for students and scholars of racial history and postcolonialism within visual culture and art history.

The education and technological centre of Russia, Akademgorodok in Siberia is home to the state university, 35 research institutes, a medical academy and the House of Scientists, and generates over 17 million roubles every year. As such, it is often presented as evidence of the pre-eminence of Russian technology and innovation; and yet, as this pioneering study reveals, its soviet history and legacy complicates this ideal. Drawing on a range of previously unexplored archive materials from across the globe, Soviet SCI_BERIA offers a new history of the so-called 'science city' from its foundations in 1957 to 1991. It focuses on socialist innovation practices and the relationship between experts and the state, and provides fresh insight into the transition from Soviet to post-Soviet Akademgorodok. In doing so, Tartachenko not only fosters a conversation between history and science but also sheds new light on the late Soviet politics of expertise. This innovative study is important reading for all scholars of modern Russian history and the history of technology.
