Overview: During the twentieth century we saw a veritable revolution in medicine. Some of the most notable advances have been in the elucidation of the risk factors for and treatment of cardio- and cerebral vascular disease. Identifying these factors through epidemiological studies has led to the development of guidelines for a healthy life style and therapies to control this major killer of the elderly. As a result of these efforts at the present time cardiovascular disease, rather than being the leading cause of death in the United States, has dropped to second behind cancer. Beginning with

Overview: Many of the deep-rooted human conflicts that seize our attention today are not ready for formal mediation and negotiation. People do not negotiate about identity, fear, historic grievance, and injustice. Sustained dialogue provides a space where citizens outside government can change their conflictual relationships. Governments can negotiate binding agreements and enforce and implement them, but only citizens can change human relationships. Governments have long had their tools of diplomacy - mediation, negotiation, force, and allocation of resources. Harold H. Saunders‘ A Public Pea

Overview: Identifies the important topics in logic that mathematicians use in their proofs.Methodically presents the key strategies used in mathematical proofs.Each proof strategy is illustrated by a variety ofThe book is intended for students who want to learn how to prove theorems and be better prepared for the rigors required in more advance mathematics. One of the key components in this textbook is the development of a methodology to lay bare the structure underpinning the construction of a proof, much as diagramming a sentence lays bare its grammatical structure. Diagramming a proof is a

Overview: Prepares students for research in partial differential equations.Guides readers through the proofs of significant theorems.Includes challenging exercises covering important results, with detailed solu.This textbook provides a modern introduction to advanced concepts and methods of mathematical analysis...The first three parts of the book cover functional analysis, harmonic analysis, and microlocal analysis. Each chapter is designed to provide readers with a solid understanding of fundamental concepts while guiding them through detailed proofs of significant theorems. These include th

Overview: Keine Bauschäden dank professioneller Planung.Anhand von ca. 110 Beispielen, untergliedert nach Bauteilen, werden Planungs- und Ausführungsfehler vorgestellt und wie folgt analysiert: - Schadensursache - gutachterliche Einstufung - Beseitigung - Vorbeugung Nach dem Motto "Bauen ist ein Kampf mit dem Wasser" wird als Schwerpunktthema der Bereich Feuchteschäden an Balkonen, Terrassen, WU-Beton-Kellern, Lichtschächten, Kelleraußentreppen, Rampen usw. behandelt. Da durch mangelhafte Ausführung aus guten Baustoffen oft schlechte Bauteile entstehen, soll der Planer vorbeugend auf mögliche

Overview: by Gian-Carlo Rota The subjects of mathematics, like the subjects of mankind, have finite lifespans, which the historian will record as he freezes history at one instant of time. There are the old subjects, loaded with distinctions and honors. As their problems are solved away and the applications reaped by engineers and other moneymen, ponderous treatises gather dust in library basements, awaiting the day when a generation as yet unborn will rediscover the lost paradise in awe. Then there are the middle-aged subjects. You can tell which they are by roaming the halls of Ivy League un

Overview: State of the art of advances in social simulation research.Aims at promoting social simulation and computational social science.Covers a range of application areas from social science to policy modell.This book contains the proceedings of the 18th Social Simulation Conference (SSC) and covers the state of the art of social simulation modeling. The SSC is the annual conference of the European Social Simulation Association (ESSA) and the major global conference devoted to this topic. It is aimed at promoting social simulation and computational social science. The book is the biggest co

Overview: Imparts expertise on design, manufacture and testing of anti-seismic devices.Maximizes engineers’ and designers’ understanding of appropriate solutions for the seismic protection of a structure.Analyz.This book stands as a manual and ready reference for structural engineers on the seismic protection of civil engineering structures. Beginning with a short historical overview, the book explains the concepts of seismic protection, describes the most common types of anti-seismic devices, and summarizes the main existing standards for anti-seismic devices, with particular reference to the

Overview: This book introduces readers to emerging persistent memory (PM) technologies that promise the performance of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) with the durability of traditional storage media, such as hard disks and solid-state drives (SSDs). Persistent memories (PMs), such as Intel‘s Optane DC persistent memories, are commercially available today. Unlike traditional storage devices, PMs can be accessed over a byte-addressable load-store interface with access latency that is comparable to DRAM. Unfortunately, existing hardware and software systems are ill-equipped to fully avail th

Overview: Showcases original research conducted on the biological and medical application areas with links to dynamics and control.Articles written by and based on research conducted by teams of women mathematiThis volume highlights problems from a range of biological and medical applications that can be interpreted as questions about system behavior or control. Topics include drug resistance in cancer and malaria, biological fluid dynamics, auto-regulation in the kidney, anti-coagulation therapy, evolutionary diversification and photo-transduction.

The Asia-Pacific region has shown fast economic growth for several decades which is expected to continue. In this context, Asia has become the “production engine” of the global economy. At the same time scientific reports reveal that some pla

Overview: Includes supplementary material: In health care systems that provide universal access to care, efforts to contain costs for standby hospital capacity usually result in wait lists for surgical procedures. When access to health care is rationed by such wait lists, the length of time that patients are required to wait is usually uncertain. This uncertainty is a natural product of stochastic variation in service time and in the percentage of urgent cases in any queuing system. However, in a queue for elective (nonemergency) procedures, waiting-time uncertainty has many additionalcauses.
