Overview: Reviews exhaustively the key recent research regarding bioactive biomaterials and the mechanisms through which they influence the local bone and joint environment to induce tissue repair and regenerat.Reviewing exhaustively the current state of the art of tissue engineering strategies for regenerating bones and joints through the use of biomaterials, growth factors and stem cells, along with an investigation of the interactions between biomaterials, bone cells, growth factors and added stem cells and how together skeletal tissues can be optimised, this book serves to highlight the im

Overview: Contains a comprehensive outline of the new orthodoxy in Cognitive Science.Unique in covering both analytic and continental philosophy.Focuses not only on new developments in Cognitive Science in a naThere is a basic perplexity in our times. On the one hand, we ?nd a blind trust in technology and rationalism. In our neo-liberalistically dominated world only what can be rapidly exploited and commercialized seems to count. The only opposing reaction to this kind of rationalism is an extreme rejection of all kinds of reasoning, and sometimes attendant religious fundamentalism. But inste

Overview: Research on the interaction between plants and microbes has attracted considerable attention in recent years. The use of modem genetic techniques has now made possible a detailed analysis both of plant and of microbial genes involved in phytopathogenic and beneficial interactions. At the biochemical level, signal molecules and their receptors, either of plant or of microbial origins, have been detected which act in signal transduction pathways or as co-regulators of gene expression. We begin to understand the molecular basis of classical concepts such as gene-for-gene relationships,

Overview: Plant adaptation is a fundamental process in plant breeding. Itwas the first criterion in the initial domestication of plantsthousands of years ago. Adaptedness is generally a quantitativecomplex feature of the plant, involving many traits, many of which arequantitative. Adaptation to stresses like cold, drought or diseasesare among the most central problems in a world grappling with globalfood security. Modern plant breeding, based on mendelian genetics, hasmade plant improvement more effective and more precise and selective.Molecular genetics and genetic engineering has considerabl

Overview: In this unique volume, Lampley analyzes the theology of Nat Turner‘s violent slave rebellion in juxtaposition with Old Testament views of prophetic violence and Jesus‘ politics of violence in the New Testament and in consideration of the history of Christian violence and the violence embedded in traditional Christian theology.978-1-349-45923-0978-1-137-32296-8Series ISSN 2945-6975 Series E-ISSN 2945-6983

Overview: Legal statements are, according to the authors, the most basicelements of the law. Nevertheless they must be considered not only asthe pieces of a puzzle, but also as the components of a dynamic andhighly complex reality: the law of contemporary society. The bookpresents an analysis of the different types of legal statements(mandatory rules, principles, power-conferring rules, definitions,permissions, values and the rule of recognition) from a threeefoldperspective, that is, considering their logical structure, theirfunction in legal reasoning as reasons for action, and theirconnecti

Overview: Based on extensive primary research, including interviews with movement and policy actors across six European countries, this book examines anti-racist movements throughout Europe, focusing on how they influence culture and government policy at national and EU level, shedding light on the nature of racism and responses to it across Europe.978-1-349-33172-7978-1-137-28466-2

Overview: Provides a comprehensive yet compact survey of the growth of American economic influence in Europe since the 1880s.Identifies three distinct but cumulative waves of Americanization.Includes supplement.One of the main features of the world economy since the late nineteenth century has been the growing dominance of the American economy in both quantitative and qualitative terms. Aspects of this development - e.g. rationalization or the world-wide diffusion of Coca-Cola - have been researched, but largely in isolation. .Americanization of the European Economy .provides a comprehensive y

Overview: Includes up-to-date research results on software architectures and fault management.Contains four experience and vision papers.Addresses issues related to mobile and ubiquitous systemsAs software systems become increasingly ubiquitous, issues of dependability become ever more crucial. Given that solutions to these issues must be considered from the very beginning of the design process, it is clear that dependability and security have to be addressed at the architectural level. This book, as well as its six predecessors, was born of an effort to bring together the research communities

Overview: The end of the Cold War provides challenges and opportunities for American foreign policy leadership that arguably have been equalled in modern times only by the period in which the Cold War began. With the collapse of the Soviet Union and communist regimes in Eastern Europe, the partners of the Atlantic alliance have achieved a profound diplomatic and political victory of historic importance. The international system which has resulted, however, arguably has more uncertainty and unpredictability than the familiar bipolar competition between the two superpowers and their allies. The
