Overview: Includes supplementary material: .After the discovery of endogenous NO formation in the late ‘80s and the 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, many researchers and physicians again became interested in the NO/sGC interaction and cGMP-dependent signaling. This book is an enthusiastic celebration of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and amply illustrates the importance of this field of science to patients and the way in which the field has evolved. It is exclusively devoted to this exciting and important signaling molecule, addressing all recent advances in understanding gua

Overview: State-of-the-art research on engineering design.Large number of individual contributions allows coverage of a spectrum of approaches to the subjectDesign occurs in a rich social context where the effectiveness and efficiency of social interaction and collective performance are key to successful outcomes. Increasingly, design is being explored and developed as a collective, collaborative, participatory, and even community process. The heightened recognition of designing as a social process has stimulated interest in collaborative design..This book contains the proceedings of the inter

Overview: CICLing 2005 (www.CICLing.org) was the 6th Annual Conference on Intelligent Text Processing and Computational Linguistics. It was intended to provide a balanced view of the cutting-edge developments in both the theoretical foundations of computational linguistics and the practice of natural-language text processing with its numerous applications. A feature of CICLing conferences is their wide scope that covers nearly all areas of computational linguistics and all aspects of natural language processing applications. This year we were honored by the presence of our keynote speakers Chr

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Intracellular checkpoint controls constitute a network of signal transd- tion pathways that protect cells from external stresses and internal errors. Ext- nal stresses can be generated by the continuous assault of DNA-damaging agents, such as environmental mutagens, ultraviolet (UV) light, ionizing radiation, or the reactive oxygen species that can arise during normal cellular metabolism. In response to any of these assaults on the integrity of the genome, the activation of the network of checkpoint control pathways can lead to diverse cellular respon

Overview: Stephen J. Morewitz is a well-known author in the fields of Psychology and Public Health.Examines the three leading causes of death in America: cardiovascular disease/stroke; diabetes; and cancer.ProbCHRONIC DISEASES AND HEALTH CARE: New Patterns of Diabetes, Arthritis, Osteoporosis, Fibromyalgia, Low Back Pain, Cardiovascular Disease, and Cancer. Twenty-?ve million Americans are victims of chronic disease, and approximately two-thirds of all deaths each year are due to cardiovascular disease (including stroke), cancer, and diabetes. This book evaluates new trends in epidemiology, he

Overview: A few years ago, two of us joined our senior colleague at Pharma­ Kinetics Laboratories, a newly public contract research firm just under­ taking a major expansion into the clinical trials market. The company‘s unique concept of clinical research held great promise and had suc­ cessfully endured many of the fits and starts characteristic of entrepre­ neurial organizations. With a staff of highly enthusiastic, albeit inex­ perienced, field personnel located in 30-odd cities around the country, we found ourselves off and running with several critical research pro­ grams for major pharm

Overview: Brings together a range of stakeholders, agencies and practitioners to discuss the multifaceted dimensions of risk and sexual offenders in the criminal justice system.Explores the key issues in resear.This book, the first of two volumes edited by McCartan and Kemshall, focusses on perceptions of sexual offenders, and how risk is used by policy makers, stakeholders, academics and practitioners to both construct and respond to unknown and known sex offenders within the contexts of criminal justice, health and social policy. The chapters provide an oversight of contemporary policies, pr

Overview: Combines micro and macro approaches to return migrants’ life trajectories to paint a full picture of returnees’ “life worlds”.Provides an alternative to the dominant transnational approach to return m.This volume focuses on the process of return migration, from a holistic and policy-oriented perspective. Studies in return migration, which remains a vibrant field for academics, researchers, and policy-makers, have provided a large body of knowledge on particular issues, but generally fall along two lines: they are either broad macro analyses and models (especially economic ones) or na

Overview: In recent years mineralogy has developed even stronger links with solid-state chemistry and physics and these developments have been accompanied by a trend towards further quantification in the theoretical as well as the experimental aspects of the subject. The importance of solid-state chemistry to mineralogy was reflected in a symposium held at the 1982 Annual Congress of The Royal Society of Chemistry at which the original versions of most of the contributions to this book were presented. The meeting brought together chemists, geologists and mineralogists all of whom were interest

Overview: Compact reference of the essentials from the vast C++ Standard Library.Covers all important aspects of the C++ Standard Library in a compact, to-the-point style.Up to date with the latest C++17 standaThis quick reference is a condensed guide to the essential data structures, algorithms, and functions provided by the C++17 Standard Library. It does not explain the C++ language or syntax, but is accessible to anyone with basic C++ knowledge or programming experience. Even the most experienced C++ programmer will learn a thing or two from it and find it a useful memory-aid. .It is hard

Overview: During the 1980s, those of us who were involved in forensic psychiatry have seen an increase in the interest in our subspecialty. This increased interest has been from psychiatrists, lawyers, judges, and correctional officials as well. As a part of this demand for our services, there has also been an increase in the demand for detailed quality in our reports and testimony. Whether this is the result of the educational efforts of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law, the establishment of the American Board of Forensic Psychiatry, the stimulation of thought by the publication

Overview: Compromise and Resistance in Postcolonial Writing offers a new critical approach to E. M. Forster‘s legacy. It examines key themes in Forster‘s work (homosexuality, humanism, modernism, liberalism) and their relevance to post-imperial and postcolonial novels by important contemporary writers.978-1-349-45001-5978-1-137-28893-6

Overview: 1. THE PROBLEM OF CATASTROPHE RISK The risk of large losses from natural disasters in the U.S. has significantly increased in recent years, straining private insurance markets and creating troublesome problems for disaster-prone areas. The threat of mega-catastrophes resulting from intense hurricanes or earthquakes striking major population centers has dramatically altered the insurance environment. Estimates of probable maximum losses (PMLs) to insurers from a mega­ catastrophe striking the U.S. range up to $100 billion depending on the location and intensity of the event (Applied I

Overview: Since major prospective randomized multicenter studies (NASCET, ECST, ACAS) have assured the significant effect of the carotid reconstruction on stroke prevention, the main interest in carotid surgery focuses on modern radiologic procedures, new aspects in surgical technique, and perioperative region, paricularly of the carotid artery is, therefore, also best treated in an interdisciplinary way involving the neurologist, angioradiologist, and vascular surgeon. These current themes need to be discussed and constantly revised with new developing aspects.978-3-7985-1075-3978-3-642-53788
