Overview: The transfer across the surface of environmental waters is of interest as an important phase in the geophysical and natural biochemical cycles of numer­ ous substances; indeed it governs the transition, one way or the other, be­ tween the dissolved state in the water and the gaseous state in the atmo­ sphere. Especially with increasing population and industrialization, gas transfer at water surfaces has become a critical factor in the understanding of the various pathways of wastes in the environment and of their engineering management. This interfacial mass transfer is, by its very

Overview: Covers the historical evolution of gold mining activities in the Egyptian and Nubian Desert (Sudan).Provides a state-of-the-art comprehensive geological introduction With numerous drawings and colour .The book presents the historical evolution of gold mining activities in the Egyptian and Nubian Desert (Sudan) from about 4000 BC until the Early Islamic Period (~800–1350 AD), subdivided into the main classical epochs including the Early Dynastic – Old and Middle Kingdoms – New Kingdom (including Kushitic) – Ptolemaic – Roman and Early Islamic. It is illustrated with many informative c

Overview: Focuses on the fields of fuzzy logic and metaheuristic algorithms, especially the harmony search algorithm and fuzzy control.Presents a parameter adaptation solution in the original harmony search alg.This book focuses on the fields of fuzzy logic and metaheuristic algorithms, particularly the harmony search algorithm and fuzzy control. There are currently several types of metaheuristics used to solve a range of real-world of problems, and these metaheuristics contain parameters that are usually fixed throughout the iterations. However, a number of techniques are also available that

Overview: Readily reproducible protocols for the manipulation of germline stem cells in model organisms.State of the art methods optimized by leading experts in germline stem cells.Identification and regulationStem cells are responsible for maintaining tissue homeostasis. They possess unlimited self-renewal potency. Through asymmetric cell division, a stem cell in adult tissues can produce an offspring that will maintain the stem cell populations and a daughter cell that will differentiate into various short-lived cell types to replace damaged or dying cells. Tumors may originate from a few tr

Overview: After many years of sterile arms control negotiations between the super powers, which did not produce a single genuine disarmament measure - and sometimes had the opposite effect of stimulating the development of new weapons to serve as bargaining chips - an agreement to abolish completely two categories of nu­ clear weapons, the INF Treaty, was signed and is now being implemented. This historical event, the first actual destruction of deployed nuclear missiles (although not of their warheads) became possible largely because of the radical changes in the policies of the Soviet Union,

Overview: Geometry used to be the basis of a mathematical education; today it is not even a standard undergraduate topic. Much as I deplore this situation, I welcome the opportunity to make a fresh start. Classical geometry is no longer an adequate basis for mathematics or physics-both of which are becoming increasingly geometric-and geometry can no longer be divorced from algebra, topology, and analysis. Students need a geometry of greater scope, and the fact that there is no room for geometry in the curriculum un­ til the third or fourth year at least allows us to assume some mathematical ba

Overview: This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of global governance from a gendered perspective. It not only furthers the emerging feminist theorizing on global governance, but also provides a theoretically informed and empirically based analysis of both institutions and transformative practices.978-0-230-53705-7978-0-230-58393-1

Overview: Provides a thorough understanding of the gendered politics of gradual change in a highly constrained setting.Focuses on Chile, a particularly interesting case where large-scale policy change is very d.This book explores recent social policy reforms and innovations in Chile. Focusing on four major reform episodes — health, pensions, childcare, and maternity leave — Silke Staab unveils the complex interplay of factors that have shaped the successes and failures of actors pursuing positive gender change in social policy. She shows that even in highly constrained settings positive gender

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The efficiency of delivering DNA into mammalian cells has increased t- mendously since DEAE dextran was first shown to be capable of enhancing transfer of RNA into mammalian cells in culture. Not only have other chemical methods been developed and refined, but also very efficient physical and viral delivery methods have been established. The technique of introducing DNA into cells has developed from transfecting tissue culture cells to delivering DNA to specific cell types and organs in vivo. Moreover, two important areas of biology—assessment of gene

Overview: Für Unternehmen in technologieorientierten Branchen ist die Fähigkeit, Inventionen in erfolgreiche Innovationen zu transformieren, überlebenswichtig. Die Bedeutung der „Gewerblichen Schutzrechte“ nimmt dabei stetig zu und das Einsatzspektrum von Patenten geht heute weit über die Nutzung der Schutzfunktion hinaus. Ein umfassender Ansatz, wie gewerbliche Schutzrechte in den Innovationsprozess zu integrieren sind, fehlt jedoch bis heute...Die Autoren des vorliegenden Bandes identifizieren Verknüpfungspunkte zwischen dem Forschungs- und Entwicklungs- sowie dem Innovations- und dem Patent

Overview: Der 4. Bundeskongress Soziale Arbeit hat vom 20. bis 22. September 200 1 in Mainz und Wiesbaden stattgefunden. Er war überschattet von dem terroristischen Anschlag am 11. September 2001 in New York und Washington. In den Reden und Grußworten zur Eröffnung des Kongresses war die Betroffenheit über diesen Anschlag präsent und soll auch so dokumentiert werden. Die Teilnehmer und Teilnehmerin­ nen des Kongresses haben in einer von ihnen unterschriebenen Reso­ lution ihre Trauer und Sorge um eine weitere Eskalation der Gewalt zum Ausdruck gebracht. Wie berechtigt diese Sorgen waren, haben

Overview: Studies the intersection of care, migration, and public policy.Fills a gap in the relevant research on the Pacific Rim.Examines the global division of care labor.Analyzes transnational care migration This book explores how around the world, women’s increased presence in the labor force has reorganized the division of labor in households, affecting different regions depending on their cultures, economies, and politics; as well as the nature and size of their welfare states and the gendering of employment opportunities. As one result, the authors find, women are increasingly migrating
