Overview: Presents a unique approach to understanding the connections between brain and mind.Explores how the study of cells and networks might give insight into the issues of cognition and mental illness.MakesThis book tackles the question of why the brain is so difficult to fully understand. In neuroscience, data are acquired and analyzed with astonishing techniques and accumulate rapidly. Nevertheless, try to explain how a person can think or why there is such a condition as schizophrenia, and it appears that we really know little. To approach these difficulties, the authors first present a

Overview: First volume devoted to the applications of Biomaterials in Hand Surgery.Editors are internationally recognised for their pioneering contributions to biomaterials.Includes supplementary material: Biomaterials are used in many areas of medicine, particularly in surgery and d- tistry. In orthopedic surgery, total hip arthroplasty has been extremely successful, and has been called ‘the operation of the 20th century’. Total hip arthroplasty is r- tinely performed every day in most orthopedic departments. Over the last decades, many efforts have been made to better integrate the component

Overview: .This book constitutes the proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Business Information Systems, BIS 2018, held in Berlin, Germany, in July 2018.  The BIS conference follows popular research trends, both in the academic and the business domain. Thus the theme of BIS 2018 was "Digital Transformation - An Imperative in Today‘s Business Markets". ..The 30 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 96 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: big and smart data and artificial intelligence; business and enterprise modeling; ICT

Overview: Boreal forests form Earth‘s largest terrestrial biome. They arerich in ecosystem and landscape diversity, though characterized byrelatively few plant species, as compared to other forested regions.The long term viability and sustainability of boreal forests isinfluenced by many factors. They are subject to interruptions atintervals by large-scale natural disturbances, and increasingly byhuman activities. Boreal ecosystem development is typically a slowprocess; hence rapid changes in the global environment may invokecomplex responses. Many industrial nations border, or lie within,bore

Overview: Freier / optimierter Wille aus Sicht eines Biophysikers.Biophysikalisches Modell, welches die elementaren Funktionen des Gehirns in konsequenter Weise interpretiert.Renommierter Lehrbuchautor.IncludesDas Fehlen freien Willens – so die Sorge der Dualisten - entwürdigt den Menschen. Der Text belegt das Gegenteil: das Fehlen macht den Menschen robust und verlässlich. Dazu entwirft das Buch ein auf schrittweise optimierenden Vorgängen basierendes biophysikalisches Iterations-Modell, das die elemen­taren Funktionen des Gehirns in konsequenter Weise interpretiert. .Aus nüchterner Sicht der

Overview: In recent years our horizons regarding the role of nucleic acids in biological systems have been expanded vastly by the finding that these molecules not only carry and transmit specific infOImation but also can act as less specific triggers of antiviral factors and of immunological responses. The latter properties are of particular interest in terms of possible utilization in human and veterinary medicine and consequently led, in the last few years, to the development of a new research area that combines both fundamental and applied problems in a uniquely attractive way. Furthermore,

Overview: This book is open access, which means that you have free and unlimited access.Offers a set of tools to help achieve sustainable forest management.Explores a new conceptual framework for climate change.This open access book explores a new conceptual framework for the sustainable management of the boreal forest in the face of climate change. The boreal forest is the second-largest terrestrial biome on Earth and covers a 14 million km.2. belt, representing about 25% of the Earth’s forest area. Two-thirds of this forest biome is managed and supplies 37% of global wood production. These f
