Overview: First book dedicated to the topic of sleep dysfunction in Parkinson‘s disease.Provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field.With contributions from leading international experts?.This book is the first to take into account the rapidly growing body of knowledge on the relation between sleep and PD. Gathering contributions from internationally recognized experts, it provides a unique source of in-depth information on sleep and circadian dysregulation in Parkinson’s disease. The book is divided into two parts: the first comprises chapters on normal sleep-wake homeostasis

Overview: Covers the complete spectrum of deformable models - its evolution as an imagery field and its use in many biomedical engineering and clinical application disciplines.Includes level sets, PDEs, curve a.In the biomedical field, biomedical imagery has come to be a discipline of its own, given the nature of its applications in the understanding of the human body and medical diagnostics. The understanding of Deformable Models are the significant utility on biomedical imagery primarily because of its ability to perform efficient topology preservation and fast shape recovery. This has domin

Overview: Kurzmeldungen professionell verfassen und gestaltenDas Verfassen von Kurzmeldungen und Kurzmeldungsblocks gilt als ungeliebtes Kind, weil damit keine Meriten zu verdienen sind. Dabei lässt sich sagen: Schau Dir die Kurzmeldungen an - und Du weisst, ob eine Zeitung Qualität hat. Dasselbe gilt für Informationsmedien im Web, wo der Leser fast immer über eine Kurzmeldung in einen längeren Text einsteigt. Was ist bei der Produktion zu beachten, was beim Schreiben von Kurzmeldungen und Kurzmeldungsblocks? Der Bandgibt Rezepte, was man aus Kurzmeldungen alles machen kann, illustriert mit ei

Overview: Provides an analysis of three very different examples of decolonisation, crossing continents and time periods.Explores the importance of frontiers to the stability and international cooperation of theThis book offers an analysis of the decolonisation process across three different regions around the world: Central America, Southeast Asia and the Caucasus. It explores how the nature of previous imperial systems shaped the nation states that were created in their stead. By outlining these contrasting historical trajectories, this short study argues that the stability of these nation st

Overview: Quantum mechanics has been mostly concerned with those states of systems that are represented by state vectors. In many cases, however, the system of interest is incompletely determined; for example, it may have no more than a certain probability of being in the precisely defined dynamical state characterized by a state vector. Because of this incomplete knowledge, a need for statistical averaging arises in the same sense as in classical physics. The density matrix was introduced by J. von Neumann in 1927 to describe statistical concepts in quantum mechanics. The main virtue of the d

Overview: Einführung in die Wissenschaftssoziologie Piere Bourdieus.Beitrag zu einer aktuellen soziologischen Debatte.Umfassend und präzise.​Die Wissenschaftssoziologie Pierre Bourdieus steht im Zentrum seines soziologischen Gesamtwerkes. Die vorliegende Einführung stellt erstmalig Bourdieus wissenschaftssoziologisches Werk in systematischer Form dar und verdeutlicht den zentralen Mehrwert seiner Sozialtheorie für die moderne Wissenschaftsforschung. Es wird gezeigt, wie sich Bourdieus Wissenschaftstheorie und erkenntnistheoretische Kritik mit seiner soziologischen Analyse des wissenschaftliche

Overview: Mathematical models have been very successful in the study of the physical world. Galilei and Newton introduced point particles moving without friction under the action of simple forces as the basis for the description of concrete motions like the ones of the planets. This approach was sustained by appro­ priate mathematical methods, namely infinitesimal calculus, which was being developed at that time. In this way classical analytical mechanics was able to establish some general results, gaining insight through explicit solution of some simple cases and developing various methods of

Overview: This book is the outcome of a cardiologist switching to clinical pharma­ cology in mid-career and may be seen as representing the interface between the two disciplines. In this second edition I have not tried to be encyclopaedic, but have asked the contributors to give a brief account of current practice, so that it represents the present state of cardiac thera­ peutics. Although some contributors are from Bart‘s, I have tried to spread my net widely and produce a general view from the English speaking world. I hope this will be enough to draw the teeth of my colleagues who will reac

Overview: Excellent companion to a dynamical systems textbook.Includes large variety of problems and accompanying solutions.Problems range from simple to complex.Emphasis on dynamical systems with discrete time.This book comprises an impressive collection of problems that cover a variety of carefully selected topics on the core of the theory of dynamical systems. Aimed at the graduate/upper undergraduate level, the emphasis is on dynamical systems with discrete time. In addition to the basic theory, the topics include topological, low-dimensional, hyperbolic and symbolic dynamics, as well as b

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 30th British International Conference on Databases, BICOD 2015 - formerly known as BNCOD (British National Conference on Databases) - held in Edinburgh, UK, in July 2015..The 19 revised full papers, presented together with three invited.keynotes and three invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. Special focus of the conference has been "Data Science" and so the papers cover a wide range of topics related to databases and data-centric computation..978-3-

Overview: Brings together new research around interactive documentary theory and practice.A timely collection by an emerging group of scholar–practitioners dedicated to pushing the boundaries of documentary usiThis collection of essays by Australian based practitioner–theorists brings together new research on interactive documentary making. The chapters explore how documentary theory and practice is influenced by digitisation, mobile phones, and new internet platforms. The contributors highlight the questions raised for documentary makers and scholars as new production methods, narrative forms

Overview: In the years since the initial discovery that blood from diabetic patients contains increased amounts of a posttranslationally gluco­ sylated form of hemoglobin (hemoglobin Ale)‘ an impressive number of studies have clarified and expanded the use of glycohemoglobin levels to assess disease status. Many other structural proteins have been shown to undergo similar changes, including proteins from tissues most commonly affected in diabetes (e.g., lens, aorta, peripheral nerve, basement membrane). Thus, the nonenzymatic glycosylation of hemoglobin emerges as an invaluable model for the p

Overview: The 1978 National Drug Abuse Conference held in Seattle marked the beginning of the second decade of these conferences and their predecessor National Methadone Conferences. They began as small conferences devoted to understanding the problems and promises in­ herent in methadone maintenance treatment of opiate-dependent pa­ tients. The first conference was held about a decade ago in New York City at the Rockefeller University. The attendees consisted of a small group of invited clinicians, administrators, and research workers. Over the years the conferences have increased in both bre

Overview: Es ist nicht nur die Tatsache, daß im heutigen Wirtschaftsleben und im Wirtschaftsprozeß selbst der Verkehr eine außerordentlich große, vielfach ausschlaggebende Rolle spielt, die mich veranlaßt, dieses Verkehrs-Lexikon herauszugeben, sondern es ist auch die von Tag zu Tag zunehmende Erkenntnis, daß jeder einzelne von uns sehr viel mehr und sehr viel unmittelbarer mit dem Verkehr zu tun hat, als das noch vor wenigen Jahrzehnten der Fall gewesen ist. Insbesondere nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg vollzog sich auch in der Bundesrepublik, gefördert durch den steigenden Wohlstand, eine durchgre
