Overview: Argues in favor of returning Religious Studies to the exploration of religious experience, especially ecstatic experience.Written from the perspective of an author who has done fieldwork in non-Wester.This book is a study of religious ecstasy, and the ways that it has been suppressed in both the academic study of religion, and in much of the modern practice of religion.  It examines the meanings of the term, how ecstatic experience is understood in a range of religions, and why the importance of religious and mystical ecstasy has declined in the modern West. June McDaniel examines ho

Overview: .Cet ouvrage collectif traite des cancers ovariens et de leur prise en charge thérapeutique.

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-662-36520-5

Overview: The volume is the outgrowth of a workshop with the same title held at MSRI in the week of November 13-17, 1989, and for those who did not get it, Logic from Computer Science is the converse of Logic in Computer Science, the full name of the highly successful annual LICS conferences. We meant to have a conference which would bring together the LICS commu­ nity with some of the more traditional "mathematical logicians" and where the emphasis would be on the flow of ideas from computer science to logic rather than the other way around. In a LICS talk, sometimes, the speaker presents a p

Overview: Teaches physics relevant to astronomy, providing clear and often humorous exercises.Presents physics experiments using radio, radar and optical astronomy techniques applied in the modern exploration o.This book presents experiments which will teach physics relevant to astronomy. The astronomer, as instructor, frequently faces this need when his college or university has no astronomy department and any astronomy course is taught in the physics department. The physicist, as instructor, will find this intellectually appealing when faced with teaching an introductory astronomy course. Fr

Overview: Here is a presentation of LISP which is both practical and theoretical. For the practical, the syntax of the language, the programming styles, and the semantics of computation are carefully developed. For the theoretical, the algebra of interpreters, the lambda calculus as a foundation for LISP, and the algebraic significance of LISP‘s approach to artificial intelligence are discussed. As the title suggests, the book reaches beyond the technical side of LISP to present colorful applications, historical comments and quotations, computational philosophy, consequences of LISP‘s exceptio

Overview: In this far-ranging and provocative volume, Joe Colombano and Aniket Shah provide global perspectives on the most significant challenges facing modern America, seeking to inspire new ideas to redevelop America.978-1-349-47599-5978-1-137-37213-0

Overview: We live in the silicon age, and the quintessential item that defines our world is the computer. Silicon chips power the computer as well as many other products for work and leisure, such as calculators, radios, and televisions. In the forty years since the transistor was invented, the solid state revolution has affected the lives of almost everyone in the world. Based on silicon, solid state devices and integrated circuits have revolutionized electronics, data processing, communica­ tions, and the like. The computer, especially the personal computer, would be impossible without silic

Or, comme pour les médicaments chimiques, les médicaments biologiques, et notamment les protéines recombinantes arrivées sur le marché au début des années 1990, ne sont plus couverts

Overview: .Linear Programming. provides an in-depth look at simplexbased as well as the more recent interior point techniques for solvinglinear programming problems. Starting with a review of themathematical underpinnings of these approaches, the text providesdetails of the primal and dual simplex methods with theprimal-dual, composite, and steepest edge simplex algorithms.This then is followed by a discussion of interior point techniques,including projective and affine potential reduction, primal and dualaffine scaling, and path following algorithms. Also covered is thetheory and solution of

Overview: Offers insightful perspectives on the big picture of how and why things work in an academic medical center.Perfect balance of theory and experience-based fact on learning to lead in the academic medic.This compelling title is a comprehensive, practical guide for current and aspiring leaders in academic medical centers (AMC).  Offering both a broad overview of the dynamics of the AMC and a detailed “how-to” set of instructions for the wide-ranging situations that demand skilled leadership, this expertly designed volume is filled with meaningful examples and insights. .Learning to Lead

Overview: Considers the relationship between landscapes, heritage and national identity in modern Europe.Explores how landscapes were mobilised in the development of national identities.Illustrates the selectiv.This book describes the way in which landscape and landscape heritage have been – and still are – used to define national identities. It shows how national narratives use different types of landscapes. Some nations use nature as their main point of reference, partly to circumcise conflicts between different ethnic groups. Other nations use agrarian landscapes, that are often describes a

Overview: Utilizes examples, data and authors around the world to communicate to a more global audience.Provides a user-friendly translation of challenging quantitative techniques such as graph theory, spatial This title meets a great demand for training in spatial analysis tools accessible to a wide audience. Landscape ecology continues to grow as an exciting discipline with much to offer for solving pressing and emerging problems in environmental science.
