Their notoriety would be crystallized in a single, enigmatic phrase: “Mau Mau.” Through considering character both contemporary current framings, this article contends that Mau exists as historical method itself, rather than simply phenomenon subjected to analytical frameworks historians. Mau’s mythological dimension—something acknowledged even earliest formal studies—has rarely been focused upon any sustained way centers implications for methodology. Yet it existed signifier set within enormous discursive webs systems information people interfaced with myriad ways. More concretely, understandings debates about drove human action through their articulation realms such (counter)insurgency, politics, popular culture geographically-disparate regions world.

Structural Evolution of Doped Gold Clusters: MAu

We report a joint experimental and theoretical study on the structures of a series of gold clusters doped with a group-14 atom: MAux (M ) Si, Ge, Sn; x ) 5-8). Well-resolved photoelectron spectra were obtained and compared to calculations at several levels of theory to identify the low-lying structures of MAu5-8. We found that the structure of SiAu5 is dominated by the tetrahedrally coordinated...

Post traumatic stress disorder among Mau Mau concentration camp survivors in Kenya.

BACKGROUND A decade before Kenya's independence in 1963 thousands of 'Mau Mau' fighters were arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps where many underwent torture and inhuman treatment. No studies have been done to establish the presence of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other psychiatric morbidity among the survivors of those concentration camps. OBJECTIVES To establish th...

Genetic organization of the mau gene cluster in Methylobacterium extorquens AM1: complete nucleotide sequence and generation and characteristics of mau mutants.

The nucleotide sequence of the methylamine utilization (mau) gene region from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 was determined. Open reading frames for 11 genes (mauFBEDACJGLMN) were found, all transcribed in the same orientation. The mauB, mauA, and mauC genes encode the periplasmic methylamine dehydrogenase (MADH) large and small subunit polypeptides and amicyanin, respectively. The products of...
