Overview: First book summarizing the state of the art of this technique.Real industrial applications included.Includes supplementary material: The Nobel Prize of 1986 on Sc- ning Tunneling Microscopy sig- led a new era in imaging. The sc- ning probes emerged as a new i- trument for imaging with a pre- sion suf?cient to delineate single atoms. At ?rst there were two – the Scanning Tunneling Microscope, or STM, and the Atomic Force Mic- scope, or AFM. The STM relies on electrons tunneling between tip and sample whereas the AFM depends on the force acting on the tip when it was placed near the sa

Overview: Armstrong, the engineers, armament makers and naval shipbuilders was set up in 1847 by William Armstrong at Elswick, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. This book analyzes Armstrong‘s 80 years rise, decline and reorganization, treating it, in some ways, as a case study of British industrial malaise.978-1-349-10994-4Series ISSN 2947-1125 Series E-ISSN 2947-1133

Overview: Explores the uses of behavioural science in the private sector.Discuses why behavioural science is beneficial to the private sector.Introduces practical strategies on how businesses can use behavioura.This book demonstrates how applying behavioural science to commercial problems can effectively help businesses to understand and achieve the best outcomes for their customers. Bringing together theory and practice the author describes how approaches underpinning behavioural science can be adapted to the fast-moving environment of the private sector. .The first part of the book discusses

Overview: This book argues that humanity‘s relationship to the land has undergone a fundamental and calamitous change. Marzec reveals how the historical phenomenon known as the ‘enclosure movement‘ has effected not only the ecosystems and the geopolitics of the Twenty-First century, but on how we relate to the earth and conceive of ourselves as human.978-1-349-53706-8978-0-230-60437-7

Overview: Systematically outlines the development of ancient Chinese.Departs from the tradition focusing on Old Chinese, and focuses on Middle Chinese instead.Facilitates the transition of academic study from tThis book systematically outlines the development of ancient Chinese. Consisting of 20 chapters, the self-contained work presents macro-level discussions on a broad range of topics, including: philology, phonology, exegetics, certain words’ special meanings, sentence types, the flexible use of words, different grammars in ancient and modern times, and rhetoric. .Though chiefly focusing o

Overview: Offers an extensive and distinctive treatment of the subject of monetary inflation including asset inflation.Demonstrates how US dominance in determining monetary conditions globally has grown--with cModern money, having now become a key tool of government economic policy and a source of massive tax revenues, has strayed far from its original purpose. This is doubly regrettable, as the better money functions at an individual level in satisfying demand for quality, the better it is for economic prosperity and freedom..This book presents how modern money works both in the domestic econ

Overview: The seventeenth annual symposium sponsored by the Texas Research Institute of Mental Sciences was held October 23-26, 1983, in Houston, Texas. The theme was Aging 2000: Our Health Care Destiny. This volume on biomedical aspects and a companion volume on psycho­ social aspects include edited versions of the presentations by about 80 speakers. Their papers were directed at practitioners, researchers, and medical educators who will be active and productive in the year 2000, and we focused on those who would influence the evolution of care of elderly persons during the next 17 years.

Overview: Fundierte Informationen über Afghanistan basierend auf jahrelangen Forschungsarbeiten im Land.Nuancenreiche poetische Zugänge in Text und Bild.Karl Wutt zählt zu den subtilsten Kennern Afghanistans, weil er – als Architekt, Ethnologe und reisender Forscher – in den letzten Jahrzehnten immer wieder Monate in entlegenen Regionen des Landes verbrachte und das in engstem Kontakt mit der lokalen Bevölkerung. Seine poetischen Fotos und Schilderungen sind Ausdruck solcher Annäherungen an fremd gebliebene, neuerdings wieder fremder gewordene, in sich sehr unterschiedliche Kulturen. Einem dur

Overview: A comparative study linking science and art.Includes supplementary material: Julian Stubbe aims at characterizing what novelty is in the becoming of objects and how the new becomes part of a shared reality. The study’s method is comparative and concerned with technological practice in science as well as in art. It draws on a detailed comparison of two cases: the becoming of a robotic hand made from silicone, and the genesis of a media art installation that renders visible changes in the earth’s magnetic field. In contrast to the canon of sociological innovation studies, which regard

Overview: The search for examples of proton radioactivity has resulted in the discovery of a large number of proton emitters in the region 50 < Z < 84 [1]. Many of these proton emitters and their daughters are also a-emitters, and in some cases the a-decay chain from the daughter terminates on a nuclide closer to stability whose mass excess is known. This opens up the possibility of using a-and proton-decay Q-values to determine the mass excesses of a large group of nuclei connected by particle decay. The Q-values are derived from the measured kinetic energies of the emitted protons or a-parti

Overview: This volume contains the proceedings of a workshop held in Grenoble in June 1989. This was the first workshop entirely devoted to the verification of finite state systems. The workshop brought together researchers and practitioners interested in the development and use of methods, tools and theories for automatic verification of finite state systems. The goal at the workshop was to compare verification methods and tools to assist the applications designer. The papers in this volume review verification techniques for finite state systems and evaluate their relative advantages. The tec

Overview: Evaluates and reflects upon Alfred Taski‘s early writings.Unique compilation of papers from Alfred Tarki‘s early years as a mathematician and logician.Contains material which has previously been inacc.Alfred Tarski (1901–1983) was a renowned Polish/American mathematician, a giant of the twentieth century, who helped establish the foundations of geometry, set theory, model theory, algebraic logic and universal algebra. Throughout his career, he taught mathematics and logic at universities and sometimes in secondary schools. Many of his writings before 1939 were in Polish and remained
