Abstract Harnessing primary and secondary evidence from India, our essay conceptualizes the cultural dynamics of migration. In so doing, it demonstrates the incompleteness of standard marginalist and Marxist accounts of labor circulation. As a corrective, we examine the linkages between culture, pol...

Protozoan parasites of the Leishmania donovani complex – L. donovani and L. infantum – cause the fatal disease visceral leishmaniasis. We present the first comprehensive genome-wide global study, with 151 cultured field isolates representing most of the geographical distribution. L. donovani isolate...

The present study is devoted to developing a thermal model of modified multi–wick basin type double slope solar still (MMWBDSSS). Analytical expressions of temperatures of water, wick, walls, and glass covers, distillate yield and instantaneous efficiency have been derived. The experimental validati...
