This book aims to evaluate and analyze the current situation and future prospects of food and nutriti

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Most of the existing portfolio selection models are based on the probability theory. Though they often deal with the uncertainty via probabilistic - proaches, we have to mention that the probabilistic approaches only partly capture the reality. Some other techniques have also been applied to handle the uncertainty of the ?nancial markets, for instance, the fuzzy set theory [Zadeh (1965)]. In reality, many events with fuzziness are characterized by probabilistic approaches, although they are not random events. The fuzzy set theory has been widely used

Overview: Extensive description of various yeasts important in modern biotechnology.Yeasts have a longstanding history as domesticated organisms. The brewing of beer and wine and the leavening of bread dough are well-known ‘artisanal’ applications of yeast. These early examples of yeast biotechnology have clearly contributed to the acceptance of yeasts, both as biotechnological workhorses and as model systems for the detailed understanding of eukaryotic molecular cell biology and genetics. ..In recent years, new yeast species have proven their value and novel biotechnological applications have

Overview: Fibre metal laminates were developed at Delft University ofTechnology in The Netherlands, from the beginning of the 1980s. Thisis a new family of hybrid materials consisting of thin metal layersbonded together by fibres embedded in an adhesive. As a result of thisbuild-up, fibre metal laminates possess a mixture of thecharacteristics of both metals and composite materials. Initialdevelopment led to the `Arall‘ variant using aramid fibres, which wasfirst applied on the C-17 military transport aircraft around 1990.Large-scale application became possible with a variant using glassfibres

Overview: The European School of Oncology came into existence to respond to a need for informa­ tion, education and training in the field of the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. There are two main reasons why such an initiative was considered necessary. Firstly, the teaching of oncology requires a rigorously multidisciplinary approach which is difficult for the Univer­ sities to put into practice since their system is mainly disciplinary orientated. Secondly, the rate of technological development that impinges on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer has been so rapid that it is not an easy

Overview: During the last 30 years, there has been a remarkable devel­ opment and increase in the number of processes and devices that utilize or emit non-ionizing radiant energies such as micro­ waves, a form of electromagnetic wave energy and ultrasound representative of mechanical vibration. These energies are used in all sectors of our society for military, industrial, telecommunications, medical, and consumer applications. More recently, the use of ultrasound in biology and medicine has been considerably expanded. These increases in sources of non­ ionizing radiant energy have resulted in
