C. H. ) when a few years ago I submitted a manuscript eases only. Parasitic diseases are not confned only to the entitled “Imaging of Parasitic Diseases of the Hepato - tropical and subtropical areas; indeed, they are increasing biliary System” for publication in the major pres

Overview: Demonstrates the multi-faceted and liquid nature of Chinese identity over time and space.Builds on an understanding of the Chinese in Australia in the postmodern context of globalization.Is one of theThis book describes the ethnic identity construction involved in ‘being’, ‘feeling’ and ‘doing’ Chinese for multi-generation Australian-born Chinese, who were born and raised in a different social environment. It demonstrates how Chineseness is manifested in a multitude of ways and totally debunks any notion that being Chinese is a simple identity marker. The book shows that while there

Overview: The first book to present modern Monte Carlo and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods from a practical perspective through a guided implementation in the R language.All concepts are carefully descr.Computational techniques based on simulation have now become an essential part of the statistician‘s toolbox. It is thus crucial to provide statisticians with a practical understanding of those methods, and there is no better way to develop intuition and skills for simulation than to use simulation to solve statistical problems. .Introducing Monte Carlo Methods with R. covers the main t

Overview: Offers a new perspective on the study of migration and mental illness, focusing on policy makers, customs officers and shipping companies.Draws on a broad range of bureaucratic archival sources from N.This book examines the policy and practice of the insanity clauses within the immigration controls of New Zealand and the Commonwealth of Australia. It reveals those charged with operating the legislation to be non-psychiatric gatekeepers who struggled to match its intent. Regardless of the evolution in language and the location at which a migrant’s mental suitability was assessed, thos

Overview: Emphasises on all the main proxies analysed for isotopes in palaeoenvironmental research with the exception of ice coresThis volume is intended to show how stable isotopes can be applied to understanding the palaeoenvironment. There are chapters on the interpretation of isotopes in water, tree rings, bones and teeth, lake sediments, speleothems and marine sediments. Crucial to the understanding of the environmental signal contained within the isotope composition of different materials is to gain more information about how rainfall isotope compositions are determined by climate. Chapt

Overview: Comparability of experimental results and CFD simulationsOliver Fischer analyzes the interference effects occurring in free-stream wind tunnels as well as their correction and simulation. With this work, the investigated correction method and the comparability of its results as well as flow simulation results are improved. The model wind tunnel of the IVK, University of Stuttgart, is simulated in various wind tunnel configurations. The application of a correction procedure to the corresponding experimental data from the model wind tunnel of the IVK is examined. These correction resul

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The papers comprising Vol. I and Vol. II were prepared for and presented at the International Conference on Information Networking 2002 (ICOIN 2002), which was held from January 30 to February 1, 2002 at Cheju Island, Korea. It was organized by the KISS (Korean Information Science Society) SIGIN in Korea, IPSJ SIG DPE (Distributed Processing Systems) in Japan, the ITRI (Industrial Technology Research Institute), and National Taiwan University in Taiwan. The papers were selected through two steps, refereeing and presentation review. We selected for the

Overview: "Israel - Grundwissen" will, ähnlich wie die übrigen Veröffentli­ chungen in dieser Reihe des Leske Verlages, grundlegende Daten und Informationen über wichtige ausgewählte Bereiche der Politik, Wirt­ schaft und Gesellschaft des untersuchten Staates auf knappem Raum darstellen. Auch dieser Band versteht sich als Einführung und Nach­ schlagewerk, das Daten sowie Informationen leicht und schnell abruf­ bar vorlegt. Abbildungen und Tabellen sollen Lernenden und Lehren­ den, die dieses Buch verwenden, die Arbeit erleichtern. Literaturver­ weise und -verzeichnisse wurden auf ein Mindestma

Overview: Dienstleistungen gewinnen kontinuierlich an Bedeutung und sind inzwischen ein Sektor, der die größten Wachstumspotentiale bereithält. Auch für technische Dienstleistungen - wie Engineering, Montage, Inbetriebsetzung oder Anlagenservice - entsteht ein eigenständiger Markt. Diese Entwicklung ist auf die Bereitschaft der Anlagenbezieher zurückzuführen, Dienstleistungsaufträge unabhängig von der Hardware zu vergeben. Joachim Link zeigt Möglichkeiten und Grenzen des Informationsmanagements bei technischen Dienstleistungen auf. Basierend auf einer Diagnose der vorhandenen Informationsgrund

Overview: Advances in the state of the art mean the signal processing ICsof ever-increasing complexity are being introduced. While the typicalportion of a large IC devoted to analog circuits has diminished, theperformance of those surviving analog signal processing circuitsremains vital and their design challenging. Moreover, the emerginghigh-definition TV technology has created a new area for ICdevelopment, one with formidable signal processing requirements. Theantialiasing filters needed for one proposed HDTV decoder motivatedthe research documented in this book. Sharply selective filters pl

Overview: Marangoni (1878), provided a wealth of detailed information on the effects of variations of the potential energy of liquid surfaces and, in particular, flow arising from variations in temperature and surfactant composition. One aspect of this science is seen today to bear on important phenomena associated with the processing of modern materials. The role of the basic effect in technology was probably first demonstrated by chemical engineers in the field of liquid-liquid extraction. Indeed, phenomena attributable to Marangoni flows have been reported in innumerable instances relevant

Overview: Shows that values education is essential to effective schooling.Links the effects of values education to all the important educational measures.Shows that values education is a worldwide, contemporary.Informed by the most up-to-date research from around the world, as well as examples of good practice, this handbook analyzes values education in the context of a range of school-based measures associated with student wellbeing. These include social, emotional, moral and spiritual growth – elements that seem to be present where intellectual advancement and academic achievement are being

Overview: Two general questions stood at the beginning of this PhD-thesis, namely: • What are the mechanisms which lead to the emergence and establishment of new technologies? • How can this process of technological change be influenced politically? In this sense, conceptual and theoretical interests were the early driving forces of the research work. This is also reflected in the considerable attention paid to the nature of technological change and political control. The result is an holistic per­ spective which builds on inputs from different disciplines and aims at dynamic interpretation. T

Overview: The central claim developed in this book is that disciplinary International Relations (IR) is identifiable as both an advanced colonial practice and a postcolonial subject. The starting problematic here issues from disciplinary IR‘s relative dearth of attention to indigenous peoples, their knowledges, and the distinctive ways of knowing that underwrite them. The book begins by exploring how IR has internalized many of the enabling narratives of colonialism in the Americas, evinced most tellingly in its failure to take notice of indigenous peoples. More fundamentally, IR is read as a

Overview: Addresses evidence-based correctional practice, evidence-based treatment in correctional settings and the organizational change-component.Covers the timely and important issue of implementation scienc.Community corrections programs are emerging as an effective alternative to incarceration for drug-involved offenders, to reduce recidivism and improve public health and public safety.  Since evidence-based practice is gaining recognition as a success factor in both community systems and substance abuse treatment, a merger of the two seems logical and desirable. But integrating evidence-
