Overview: Argues for the fundamental compatibility of Neurath and Carnap’s mature philosophies.Provides a new interpretation of Carnap’s conception of analyticity.The first book-length defence of the Bipartite .This text provides an extensive exploration of the relationship between the thought of Otto Neurath and Rudolf Carnap, providing a new argument for the complementarity of their mature philosophies as part of a collaborative metatheory of science. In arguing that both Neurath and Carnap must be interpreted as proponents of epistemological naturalism, and that their naturalisms rest on sh

Overview: Integrates leading technologies, models, indigenous knowledge, and citizen science on lake restoration.Shows how these contemporary lake restoration tools may be applied practically for solutions to wLakes across the globe require help.  The. Lake Restoration Handbook: A New Zealand Perspective. addresses this need through a series of chapters that draw on recent advances in modelling and monitoring tools, citizen science and First Peoples’ roles, catchment and lake-focused restoration techniques, and policy implementation.

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This is the second edition of this text on logistic regression methods, ori- nally published in 1994. As in the first edition, each chapter contains a presentation of its topic in “lecture-book” format together with objectives, an outline, key formulae, practice exercises, and a test. The “lecture-book” has a sequence of illust- tions and formulae in the left column of each page and a script (i.e., text) in the right column. This format allows you to read the script in conjunction with the illustrations and formulae that highlight the main points, for

Overview: With the proliferation of social network services, more and more social users, such as individuals and organizations, are simultaneously involved in multiple social networks for various purposes. In fact, multiple social networks characterize the same social users from different perspectives, and their contexts are usually consistent or complementary rather than independent. Hence, as compared to using information from a single social network, appropriate aggregation of multiple social networks offers us a better way to comprehensively understand the given social users. Learning acro

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Molti astrofili ritengono che l’astrofisica sia un argomento difficile, che richiede conoscenze matematiche almeno a livello universitario...Non è necessariamente così. L’approccio quantitativo adottato da Mike Inglis riesce a spiegare tutti gli aspetti dell’astrofisica in termini semplici, evitando i tecnicismi matematici con i quali questa disciplina viene spesso associata...L’astrofisica è facile! inizia considerando il diagramma H-R e altri strumenti di base dell’astrofisico, poi spazia nell’Universo, trattando del mezzo interstellare, delle nebu

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the Max-Planck Institute for Polymer Research.Describes a versatile method for controlling the properties of light-responsive microgels and nanoparticles thThe triggered release of functional compounds from such polymeric carriers as micelles, nanoparticles or nanogels is a rapidly developing and highly versatile concept which is expected to be one of the key approaches to future therapeutics. In his thesis, Daniel Klinger highlights the approach of stimuli-responsive microgels for such applications and discusses why especially light as a t

Overview: Exploits optical responses as experimental probes of topological phases.Identifies fingerprints of each type of multifold fermion in the optical conductivity.Computes and discusses second-harmonic gen.Since the initial predictions for the existence of Weyl fermions in condensed matter, many different experimental techniques have confirmed the existence of Weyl semimetals. Among these techniques, optical responses have shown a variety of effects associated with the existence of Weyl fermions. In chiral crystals, we find a new type of fermions protected by crystal symmetries — the chir

Overview: Some of the most incisive writers on the subject rethink the relationship between Britain, England and English literary culture. It is premised on the importance of devolution, the uncertainty of the British union, the place of English Literature within the union, and the need for England to become a self-determining literary nation.978-1-349-44219-5978-1-137-03524-0

Overview: Uses previously-underutilised archives to show that during the Romantic period, authorship operated principally as a relatively restricted social system, rather than a profession or mode of artistic p.This book explores how authors profited from their writings in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, contending that the most tangible benefits were social, rather than financial or aesthetic. It examines authors’ interactions with publishers; the challenges of literary sociability; the vexed construction of enduring careers; the factors that prevented most aspiring writer
