Overview: This volume brings together academic economists and lawyers to evaluate and compare the regulation of telecommunications markets in Germany and the United States. The unifying theme in all of the pa­ pers is that the goal of public policy in this area should be to make the broadest and most functional competition possible by means of an ap­ propriate regulatory framework. Because the European and American telecommunications markets are becoming more intertwined each day, the issues addressed in this volume will be topical to the business, government, and academic communities for some

Overview: This volume contains the lectures given at the Third Gordon Godfrey International Workshop on Computational Approaches to Novel Condensed Matter Systems which was held at The University of New South Wales July 12-17, 1993. Lecturers from Asia, Australia, Europe and North America gave a total of twenty-nine lectures which were spread over the five days. Unfortunately we were not able to include in this volume the lectures of S. Das Sarma from the University of Maryland on "Non-Equilibrium Growth as a Self-Organised Phenomenon" due to constraints of time. The workshops have been held a

Overview: The time seems ripe for a critical compendium of that segment of the biological universe we call viruses. Virology, as a science, having passed only recently through its descriptive phase of naming and num­ bering, has probably reached that stage at which relatively few new­ truly new-viruses will be discovered. Triggered by the intellectual probes and techniques of molecular biology, genetics, biochemical cytology, and high-resolution microscopy and spectroscopy, the field has experienced a genuine information explosion. Few serious attempts have been made to chronicle these events.

Part Two focuses on the innovative tools used to diagnose and detect cancer lesions in th

Overview: This volume represents a collection of papers which were contributed by participants at a Symposium for Cholinergic Mechanisms and Psycho­ pharmacology, held in La Jolla, California on March 28-30, 1977. The were chosen to emphasize areas in which there has been substantial topics progress in the past 2-3 years and fall into seven major groups dealingwith: cholinergiC receptors; chemistry, histochemistry and enzymology; cyclic nucleotides and cholinergiC mechanisms; storage, compartmentation and release of acetylcholine; regulatory mechanisms in acetylcholine metab­ olism; modulation

Overview: Examines the theory and rationale behind the interoperability and collaboration between the emergency services.Develops the current knowledge and thinking behind the important themes of trust, leaders“Globally, emergency services are witnessing a period of unprecedented uncertainty and change caused by pressure on their budgets, reduced manpower and changing patterns of demand and service delivery. Such challenges are also having huge implications on the workforce health and wellbeing. This book is a timely, well-researched addition to improve our understanding of the governance and

Overview: Eine der bemerkenswertesten Tatsachen des sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Geschehens ist die Allgegenwärtigkeil von Standardisierungen. Diese sind das Ergebnis von staatlichen Anordnungen, von privaten Übereinkünften und von marktmäßigen Entwicklungen im Zuge der unüberschaubaren Arbeitsteilung der Güterproduktion. Für die Wissenschaft entsteht hier das Problem der Erklärung solcher Erscheinungen. Das vorliegende Buch behandelt eine bestimmte Klasse von Produktstandards, nämlich die Computerstandards. Dabei geht es weniger um Qualitätsstandards, sondern im wesentli­ chen um Kompatibili

Overview: Engages key theoretical debates on communication and social change.Analyses the ways in which Asian articulations of social change are situated at the intersections of culture, structure, and agency.CThe book covers the trajectories and trends in social change communication, engaging the key theoretical debates on communication and social change. Attending to the concepts of communication and social change that emerge from and across the global margins, the book works toward offering theoretical and methodological lessons that de-center the dominant constructions of communication and

Overview: Marble in Ancient Greece and Rome: Geology, Quarries, Commerce, Artifacts Marble remains the sine qua non raw material of the an­ cient Greeks and Romans. Beginning in the Bronze Age sculptu­ re began in marble and throughout classical times the most im­ portant statues, reliefs, monuments and inscriptions were made of it. Yet, quarry sources changed in time as preferences for different marbles were influenced by local traditions, the pos­ sibilities of transport, esthetic tastes, and economics. Marble studies and the identification of the provenance of marble can thus reveal much ab

Overview: Reflects the richness of science communication and reviews the current models and experiences in this field.Crystallizes the state of the art in science communication.A product of the research and exp.Science communication, as a multidisciplinary field, has developed remarkably in recent years. It is now a distinct and exceedingly dynamic science that melds theoretical approaches with practical experience. Formerly well-established theoretical models now seem out of step with the social reality of the sciences, and the previously clear-cut delineations and interacting domains between

Overview: This seems to be the first rather complete overview on the Cyclical Variability in Stellar WindsIt is well known that stellar winds are variable, and the fluctuations are often cyclical in nature. This property seems to be shared by the winds of cool and hot stars, even though their outflows are driven by fundamentally different physical mechanisms. Since very similar models have been proposed to explain the cyclical wind variations observed in a wide variety of stars, the time was ripe for astrophysicists from many different sub-disciplines to present the state of the art in a conci
