Overview: At the beginning of this book, and in the absence of guidance from IUPAC, it is appropriate to clarify the term ‘chemical sensor‘. A chemical sensor may be defined as a simple-to-use, robust device that is capable of reliable quantitative or qualitative recognition of atomic, molecular or ionic species. It is hard to imagine a field of applied chemistry in which a significant impact could not be made by such a device. Undoubtedly, it is this potential that has fuelled the contemporary preoccupation with chemical sensors. An unfortunate side-effect of this otherwise welcome interest i

Overview: New data on climate development and the history of the settlement in Northern Europe.Summary of the results.Clear language, written for a broader audience.Includes interdisciplinary papers.RecommendatThe global environment is changing rapidly under the impact of human activities, and an important element of this change is related to global c1imate modification. Can the study of c1imate and history help in devising strategies for coping with this change? What might be the type of information most useful in this context? What are the pitfalls awaiting the unwary? These are the kinds of

Overview: This monograph originated with a course of lectures on information theory which I gave at Cornell University during the academic year 1958-1959. It has no pretensions to exhaustiveness, and, indeed, no pretensions at all. Its purpose is to provide, for mathematicians of some maturity, an easy introduction to the ideas and principal known theorems of a certain body of coding theory. This purpose will be amply achieved if the reader is enabled, through his reading, to read the (sometimes obscurely written) literature and to obtain results of his own. The theory is ob­ viously in a rapi

Overview: The eye has fascinated scientists from the earliest days of biological in­ vestigation. The diversity of its parts and the precision of their interaction make it a favorite model system for a variety of developmental studies. The eye is a particularly valuable experimental system not only because its tissues provide examples of fundamental processes, but also because it is a prominent and easily accessible structure at very early embryonic ages. In order to provide an open forum for investigators working on all aspects of ocular development, a series of symposia on ocular and visual

Overview: Cardiovascular complications are not only responsible for morethan half of our patients‘ mortality, they also represent the bulk ofeveryday problems in a dialysis unit. Yet, the space allocated to themin the major textbooks covers only 2-8% of their totalcontent. The origins of this book lie in many years of day-to-day careof dialysis patients. It gradually became clear to the author thatsystematic application of well-known pathophysiological principlescould improve patients‘ conditions beyond expectations. Moreimportantly, it appeared that world literature was mainly concernedwith e
