Substantially revised and expanded, this edition contains more than 25,000 words and phrases drawn from the legislative acts, international treaties and doctrinal writings of the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Unlike the great majority of other legal dictionaries, its terminological base is founded on Russian legal practice and usage. The English translations are intended to convey the literal meaning of Russian terms and minimize confusion by ascribing them, insofar as possible, to their sole or principal English equivalents.

Metaverse, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), Cryptocurrencies, Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Service Robots etc. are a rapidly expanding field with an ever-increasing number of terms and community-specific jargon. A new term is not always accompanied by something truly novel. In addition to verbal "pseudo-innuendos" and "crypto-slang" introduced with the intent of attracting attention quickly, there are several significant new developments. The issue with this development is that the risk of "Babylonian language confusion" is growing exponentially.Our observations indicate that this risk is particularly prevalent in the dialogue between science and practice. This book hopes to contribute to the clarification with quick access to all key terms. Obviously, many online marketplaces, platforms, encyclopedias, and glossaries already exist. However, our pre-book analysis has revealed that neither is even close to completion, sometimes with imprecise language and often with contradictory definitions and explanations.This glossary provides quick access for managers, students, and professors alike who are faced with the topics in their daily work. Students may keep track of the web 3.0's numerous terms as they study it. Instructors, teachers, and professors may use it as a guide for a consistent use of Metaverse, NFT, Cryptocurrency, and Blockchain terminology. Although, the more than 1,300 explanations of the individual terms are scientifically based, the focus is on easy understanding of the terms. The authors have made an effort to provide clear and concise definitions, an application-focused perspective, and simple language.

Die Forschungsarbeiten in diesem Buch zielten auf die Untersuchung der chemischen, qualitativen und quantitativen Zusammensetzung von Roheisenerz aus den Lagerstätten im Katse-Gebiet, Mwingi North Constituency in Kitui County, Kenia. Die Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass die Katse-Eisenerze aus hochwertigem Magnetit und geringem Hämatit bestehen, die gewinnbringend für die Eisenproduktion genutzt werden können. Zusammen mit anderen Lagerstätten in anderen Teilen des Landes kann dies zur Errichtung eines Stahlwerks in Kenia führen. Diese Forschungsarbeit wurde mit Mitteln des Nationalen Rates für Wissenschaft und Technologie (NACOSTI) Kenia ermöglicht. Ein großer Dank geht an das Bergbauministerium und die GDC Co. Ltd. für ihre Unterstützung und die Erlaubnis, diese Experimente in ihren Labors durchzuführen, und nicht zu vergessen die gesamte Moi-Universität für ihre Unterstützung und ihren Beitrag zu meiner Forschung.
