Overview: ‘A splendid book! The authors give a moving account of a tragic aspect of our present human world. It is a scholarly, learned account.‘ - Charles Hartshorne, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, University of Texas at Austin Does the reality of suffering disclose anything about God‘s nature? The authors address this fundamental question by reflecting on some theistic responses to the challenge of suffering. Taking seriously the persistence of theistic belief despite widespread suffering, they focus on the practical ways some believers deal with suffering: by ‘suffering with those in aff

Overview: Covers exciting applications of particles and photons in the theoretical framework of General Relativity.Provides all calculations in details.Presents speculative models which stimulate further ideas .This book discusses some of the open questions addressed by researchers in general relativity. Photons and particles play important roles in the theoretical framework, since they are involved in analyzing and measuring gravitational fields and in constructing mathematical models of gravitational fields of various types. The authors highlight this aspect covering topics such as the const

Overview: Comprehensive reference to the latest advances in the epidemiologic, socio-economic, physiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of fecal incontinence.Fecal incontinence is a frequent, distressing condition that has a devastating impact on patients’ lives. However, patients are typically embarrassed and reluctant to acknowledge this disability, so they relinquish the possibility of being cured and remain socially isolated. Since fecal incontinence may result from various pathophysiological situations, an accurate diagnostic work-up of each patient is fundamental. Today, a wide r

Overview: Elementary introduction to a methodologically new view on the mathematical model of cooperation motivated by the fuzzy idea of its participants about the expected outcomes and profits.Illustration of The present book deals with coalition games in which expected pay-offs are only vaguely known. In fact, this idea about vagueness of expectations ap­ pears to be adequate to real situations in which the coalitional bargaining anticipates a proper realization of the game with a strategic behaviour of players. The vagueness being present in the expectations of profits is mod­ elled by mean

Overview: A new edition of a book is warranted when the book is successful and there are many new developments in the related discipline. Both have occurred for this book during the past 7 years since its second edition. The growth and development in nuclear pharmacy and radiopharmaceutical chemistry along with the continued success of the book have convinced us to update the book; hence this third edition. This book is a ramification of my nuclear pharmacy courses offered to pharmacy students specializing in nuclear pharmacy, nuclear medicine resi­ dents, and nuclear medicine technology stude

The topology generated by the asymmetric norm .p. is translation invariant so that the addition is continuous, but the asymmetry of the norm implies that the multiplication by scalars is continuous only when restricted to non-negative entries in the first argument. The asymmetric dual of .X., m
