Overview: Events in anyone day of the aged consist of the functions of daily living modified or enhanced for each individual according to his or her capability. It is the constant aim of the medical professions to enhance the individual‘s quality of life and to try to avoid what is preventable. Among some of the hazards of the geriatric day are fits, faints and falls. It is the fall which often highlights the first two and the consequences may be serious for an old person. Perhaps one day an easy way to circumvent the ‘forces of gravity‘ or drugs to counteract impaired sensory input will be fo

Overview: Caregiving situations at different life course stages.Focus on key moments of vulnerability faced by family and informal caregivers.Focus on facilitating the development of social capital.Includes sup.Becoming a caregiver is increasingly an inevitable experience for many people and, therefore, a likely life transition. Drawing on research and personal experiences of working with family caregivers, this book examines a range of family caregiving situations from across the life course.

Overview: Contains a much needed review of the multi-species functional response as it is used in food web ecology.Outlines the utility of experimental studies in examining complex dynamics in food webs.Provide.Ecosystems are complex and enigmatic entities that are ultimately our life support systems. Understanding these systems to the point of being able to predict their behaviour in the face of perturbations requires that researchers adopt a number of strategies that vary in both approach and scale. This book, in a sense, is representative of some of the developments that have unfolded when

Overview: This work presents a discourse-aware Text Simplification approach that splits and rephrases complex English sentences within the semantic context in which they occur. Based on a linguistically grounded transformation stage, complex sentences are transformed into shorter utterances with a simple canonical structure that can be easily analyzed by downstream applications. To avoid breaking down the input into a disjointed sequence of statements that is difficult to interpret, the author incorporates the semantic context between the split propositions in the form of hierarchical structur

Overview: Compendium of history of the Institute of Nuclear Medicine and the research and development of Nuclear Medicine for the last 50 years.The Institute of Nuclear Medicine, founded in 1961, celebrates with this Festschrift, its Golden Jubilee. It has been a remarkable 50 years of progress of the radionuclide tracer methodology. From initial, physiology based experimentation, a full independent medical discipline evolved, and with it, a comprehensive clinical service. Diagnosis and Treatment with radiotracers have established the basis for Nuclear Medicine. Technological advances have per

Overview: Das Buch befaßt sich mit den frühesten Formen menschlichen Erlebens, den "... Grenzen des Bewußtseins, jenseits derer Worte versagen, obwohl Bedeutungen da sind" (T. S. Eliot, 1950).Um diesen frühesten Modus des vorwiegend sensorischen Erlebens zu beschreiben, führt Ogden das Konzept der autistisch-berührenden Position ein. Darunter versteht er einen sensorisch dominierten, vorsymbolischen Erlebnisbereich, in dem die primitivste Form von Bedeutung auf der Grundlage von Sinneseindrücken, besonders an der Hautoberfläche erzeugt wird. In diesem psychischen Bereich existiert eine Form vo
