The textbook summarizes the materials of educational and methodological developments of the basic course "Sociology of Religion", taught at the Department of Philosophy of Religion and Religious Studies of the Faculty of Philosophy of Moscow State University for undergraduate students of the educational program in the field of Religious Studies. The publication presents both classical scientific views on a wide range of problems of the sociology of religion in historical, conceptual, methodological aspects, and the author's solution of those problems that constitute the main subject field of the sociology of religion. The appendices contain a number of cases representing examples of sociological research conducted by the staff of the department under the guidance of the author of the textbook — Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Honored Professor of Moscow University I. N. Yablokov. For undergraduate students taking courses in sociology of religion, philosophy of religion and religious studies, as well as for all interested- engaged in the study of religion.

The scientific and auxiliary work was carried out by the Candidate of Philos. M. S. Kiselev, Senior Lecturer of the Department of Philosophy of Religion and Religious Studies.

The monograph is devoted to the scientific, methodological and experimental foundations of soil engineering - an innovative direction in geoecology, soil science and landscape engineering, which allows using models of the physical organization of soils to design and create soil objects (constructozems) optimal in their characteristics using natural and synthetic materials — soil conditioners. In the theoretical part of the work, edaphic factors, processes and models of the natural structural and functional organization of soils are analyzed, which form the fundamental basis of technological modeling to identify optimal parameters of soil structures at the design stage. In practice, the proposed variants of soil structures have demonstrated high efficiency in conditions of irrigation farming and land scaping in the arid climate of the Persian Gulf countries (UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Jordan), as well as greening and landscaping of urban areas with high anthropogenic load on the example of a metropolitan city. 

For specialists in the field of soil science, environmental engineering, landscape architecture, organizations working in the field of agriculture, recultivation, landscaping and integrated land improvement, students, postgraduates of universities in the specialties "Ecology" and "Soil Science".

The advanced textbook contains material for an in-depth study of economic theory. Along with the works of famous professors of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov presents for the first time in Russian the works of the “stars” of Western economic thought, putting forward alternative interpretations of the fundamental problems of economic theory. The authors believe that the manual will broaden the horizons of students, because it sets out interpretations of value, price, capital, profit, distribution, economic growth, etc., that are different from the neoclassical interpretation of these categories. All this, according to the authors, will be an important impetus for a deeper theoretical understanding of the processes occurring in the Russian economy.

For students, graduate students, teachers of economic universities and faculties, researchers interested in current problems of economic theory and practice.

The textbook corresponds to the program of the courses "Functional Analysis", "Operator Theory", "Analysis III", which are taught at universities and pedagogical universities. The book presents the basic set-theoretic concepts, presents the general theory of metric, topological, linear topological and normalized spaces, the general theory of measure, measurable functions and the Lebesgue integral. The theory of operators in Hilbert space, the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators, traces of operators, applications of methods of the theory of analytic functions in the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint operators, the theory of the Fourier transform and generalized functions are considered in detail.

For students of universities, pedagogical universities and universities with advanced study of mathematics. It can be useful for graduate students and researchers.

This publication outlines the contents of seven lessons on humanistic biology – the sections of biology that are directly linked to social and humanitarian issues and at the same time to modern ecology. The subject has been the focus of attention of the Club of Biopolitics since it was founded in April 2010. A working group that this club set up has produced the present manual. In addition to the text of lessons, the manual contains recommendations for the school or university teacher about students’ assignments, questions to them, illustrations and reference sources.

The authors hope that the manual will contribute to higher efficacy of education which is one of the most urgent tasks Russia faces today.

The monograph covers issues related to the territorial organization of local self-government in modern Russia. It examines the scientific and theoretical foundations for determining the territorial limits of public power at the level of state organization closest to citizens. The focus is on one of the areas of implementation of the modern policy of the Russian state related to improving the management of society. For students, graduate students, teachers, deputies, employees of state and municipal bodies.

The monograph provides a detailed review of the main advanced forecasting principles and gives examples of how they are successfully used for the development of high-technology indus­ tries (including the defense industry) in the leading foreign countries. Special attention is paid to current Russian forecasting practice in technological development and planning of the state defense order. The emphasis is placed on the key features of technological forecasting in the in ­ terests of national defense and security. The book is designed for responsible executives and professional staff members involved in the development of advanced weaponry, military and special purpose equipm ent, as well as in the modernization of the domestic military-industrial complex.

As a result of the training, students will learn about the requirements for the organization of the workplace, the quality and storage of products, and learn how to determine the nutritional value of products. In addition, students will get acquainted with modern kitchen equipment, safety equipment, master the technology of cooking and decorating healthy dishes, as well as the basics of serving and etiquette. The textbook has been developed in accordance with the Federal State Educational Standard of Basic General Education as an additional educational program on the subject "Technology". It is included in the UMK for grades 5-9 in the course "Technology: cooking, nutrition lessons".
