چکیده
This article introduces a new dataset of historical family characteristics based on ethnographic literature. The novelty of the dataset lies in the fact that it is constructed at the level of the ethnic group. To test the possibilities of the dataset, we construct a measure of family constraints on women’s agency from it and explore its correlation to a number of geographical factors.

Rubber Friction in Aqueous Solutions Containing Ions
Lubricants ordinarily operate by keeping two sliding surfaces separated. The efficiency of a lubricant may be expressed by equations of hydrodynamics where the mechanical properties of the films of lubricants are adequately defined by the properties of bulk lubricant. In the case of water lubrication of black rubber at slow speeds and low pressures the lubricating ability of water is shown to b...

close-up view of a clot forming in human blood shows beautifully how the different blood components are crammed into the plasma. (The scanning electron micrographs have been coloured to emphasize the different structures.) Red blood cells (red) are entangled with the fibrin (yellow) that makes up the scaffolding of the clot. The platelets (blue) — which initiate clotting — are fragments of larg...

متن کاملIs blood thicker than water? Information flow among competing cardiologists
Variations in physician practice are pervasive and costly, and may be harmful. The objective of much policy is to increase the interconnectedness of physicians, furthering the transfer of information and thus reducing variation. This study tests whether physicians are influenced by the practice of peers, or if propensity, mere context or sorting of like-minded physicians better explain similari...
