Overview: Represents the first book dedicated to Ga2O3.Focuses on a key research area in ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductors.Provides broad coverage from materials properties through devices.This book provides comprehensive coverage of the new wide-bandgap semiconductor gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃). Ga₂O₃ has been attracting much attention due to its excellent materials properties. It features an extremely large bandgap of greater than 4.5 eV and availability of large-size, high-quality native substrates produced from melt-grown bulk single crystals. Ga₂O₃ is thus a rising star among ultra-wide-bandgap

Overview: Provides a comprehensive picture of proof-theoretic investigations following Gerhard Gentzen‘s seminal work.Revisits and re-evaluates Gentzen‘s original proof(s) of the consistency of arithmetic.Inclu.Gerhard Gentzen has been described as logic’s lost genius, whom Gödel called a better logician than himself. This work comprises articles by leading proof theorists, attesting to Gentzen’s enduring legacy to mathematical logic and beyond. The contributions range from philosophical reflections and re-evaluations of Gentzen’s original consistency proofs to the most recent developments in

Overview: Disseminates knowledge and information on technology application in clinical practice.Explores technological assessment and management of diseases and/or disabilities in older people.Presents future p.This book aims at disseminating information and knowledge in Gerontechnology, a topic that is still considered a specific area of interest for techno-experts (i.e. informatics, engineers, bio-engineers, bio-statistics, etc.) while there is a relatively low diffusion of technological expertise among clinicians and other health professionals who are involved in the care of older people...

Overview: A completely updated and revised edition of Volume II of the successful handbook series The Mycota.Includes supplementary material: .Since publication of the first edition of Volume II in 1995, several developments in fungal molecular biology - such as fungal genome projects - have progressed tremendously. This in turn has affected fundamental genetics as well as biotechnology. To accommodate these developments, the second edition has been completely updated and all chapters have been revised. In addition, the volume contains five new chapters dealing with different aspects of fungal

Overview: Au-pair als Migrationsstrategie von Frauen aus Osteuropa1. 1. Unsichtbare Frauen? „Tod im gelobten Land“ titelte „Der Spiegel“ in seiner Januarausgabe 2003. In Bayern hatte sich ein junge Frau aus Rumänien im Alter von 21 Jahre erhängt. Doch nicht der Freitod an sich brachte Ramona Radulovici in die Schlagzeilen des Nachrichtenmagazins und im Anschluss in Reportagesendungen privater und - fentlich-rechtlicher Fernsehanstalten. Ebenso wenig war dies der Tatsache gesch- det, dass sie eine junge osteuropäische Migrantin war, die seit geraumer Zeit ohne Papiere in Deutschland arbeitete.

Overview: A comprehensive overview on the glaciers in relation to water supply, hazards and sustainable uses.The text is based on state-of-the-art glaciological and related studies.Presents author’s own investi.The Karakoram contains the greatest concentration of glaciers and most of the largest ice masses outside high latitudes. They comprise major stores and sources of fresh water in an otherwise extreme, continental, dry region. As many as 200 million people living downstream, in the valleys of the Indus and Yarkand Rivers, depend on melt waters from snow and ice. They are at risk from clim

Overview: A freshly provocative look at the nexus linking EU security, trans-Turkey energy supply routes to Europe and Turkey‘s EU membership negotiations, this book argues that Europe‘s collective energy security prospects have become increasingly tied to Turkey‘s progress towards joining the EU.978-1-349-32222-0978-0-230-29494-3Series ISSN 2731-0329 Series E-ISSN 2731-0337

Overview: The first edition aimed to give a geodesic path to the Fundamental Theorem of Galois Theory, and I still think its brevity is valuable. Alas, the book is now a bit longer, but I feel that the changes are worthwhile. I began by rewriting almost all the text, trying to make proofs clearer, and often giving more details than before. Since many students find the road to the Fundamental Theorem an intricate one, the book now begins with a short section on symmetry groups of polygons in the plane; an analogy of polygons and their symmetry groups with polynomials and their Galois groups can

Overview: In the decade-and-a-half since I coedited Transsexualism and Sex Reassignment (Green & Money, 1969), remarkable changes have occurred with Harry Ben­ jamin‘s "transsexual phenomenon" (1966). Formerly, when writing about this condition in scientific journals, it was necessary to define the term transsex­ ualism. Now the lay public recognizes it. Even the American Psychiatric Asso­ ciation acknowledges it as a "disorder," with its inclusion in the Third Edition of its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (1980). Although this "elevation" to the status of mental illness may seem a Pyrrhic
