Overview: Explores validity behind medical myths using published scientific evidence.Reviews the history and culture behind common medical beliefs and practices.Summarizes current medical beliefs and how they v.This book examines the history, culture, and science behind health myths. The word “myth” can have two quite different meanings: (1) a shared tradition or story and (2) a belief that can be falsified. Most previous books have focused on “busting” the second type of myth – explaining why the myth is false. In contrast, “Believe It or Not: The History, Culture, and Science Behind Health B

Overview: Dieses Buch versteht sich als eine Ergänzung zum bereits vorhandenen Wissen über die zellulären und molekularen Mechanismen der linksventrikulären Hypertrophie. Die vorgestellten neuen Aspekte beruhen auf den Ergebnissen aus der Wundheilungsforschung, hier besonders die Interaktion zwischen dem bindegewebigen Gerüst des Herzens und den Fibroblasten, eine Abhängigkeit, die bisher wenig beleuchtet wurde. Eine besondere Bedeutung bei der linksventrikulären Hypertrophie scheint das Adhäsionsprotein Osteopontin zu haben, das bei der Hypertrophie verstärkt exprimiert wird. Dieses Protein b

Overview: Background subtraction is a widely used concept for detection of moving objects in videos. In the last two decades there has been a lot of development in designing algorithms for background subtraction, as well as wide use of these algorithms in various important applications, such as visual surveillance, sports video analysis, motion capture, etc. Various statistical approaches have been proposed to model scene backgrounds. The concept of background subtraction also has been extended to detect objects from videos captured from moving cameras. This book reviews the concept and practi

Overview: This book examines the dynamics of competence building process at the firm level in a sample of leading Japanese and European companies engaged in the field of optoelectronics.
