Overview: Presents an updated view of the field which has undergone a significant evolution and new understanding in the last 10 years.Comprehensively covers new areas of monocyte/macrophage research like polar.Macrophages are a key component of the innate immune system and play an integral role in host defense and homeostasis. On one hand, these cells contribute to host defence by triggering inflammation, displaying microbicidal/tumoricidal properties, regulating the activation of adaptive immunity and promoting resolution of inflammation. On the other hand, they contribute to essential troph

Overview: PAGEOPH, stratosphere, these differences provide us with new evidence, interpretation of which can materially help to advance our understanding of stratospheric dynamics in general. It is now weil established that smaller-scale motions-in particular gravity waves and turbulence-are of fundamental importance in the general circulation of the mesosphere; they seem to be similarly, if less spectacularly, significant in the troposphere, and probably also in the stratosphere. Our understanding of these motions, their effects on the mean circulation and their mutual interactions is progres

Overview: Complete coverage of all relevant topics in mechanics.With exercises and solutionsPurpose and Emphasis. Mechanics not only is the oldest branch of physics but was and still is the basis for all of theoretical physics. Quantum mechanics can hardly be understood, perhaps cannot even be formulated, without a good kno- edge of general mechanics. Field theories such as electrodynamics borrow their formal framework and many of their building principles from mechanics. In short, throughout the many modern developments of physics where one frequently turns back to the principles of classical

Overview: At present, there is no book available that offers an up-to-date and balanced treatment of the new morphometrics.Brings together people and ideas with competing visions about the optimal way to proceeMorphometrics has undergone a revolutionary transformation in the past two decades as new methods have been developed to address shortcomings in the traditional multivirate analysis of linear distances, angles, and indices. While there is much active research in the field, the new approaches to shape analysis are already making significant and ever-increasing contributions to biological

Overview: Die Vergütung des Top-Managements in Deutschland wird erst seit kurzem wissenschaftlich diskutiert. Ansatzpunkte für eine wertorientierte Vergütung von Managern finden sich entweder in unmittelbarem Zusammenhang mit dem Shareholder Value, dem rechnerischen Wert eines Unternehmens oder Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights und Aktienbeteiligungen...Jürgen Ferstl arbeitet die Schwächen bisheriger Lösungsansätze zur variablen Vergütung von Managern heraus.

Overview: For several decades the electron microscope has been the instrument of choice for the examination of biological structures at high resolution. Biologists have be­ come familiar with the techniques and pitfalls of sample preparation and with the interpretation of the images obtained. The purpose of this book is to introduce the biologist to a number of new imaging techniques that are now becoming avail­ able to supplement and even extend the information that can be obtained from the now-traditional electron microscope. Some of these techniques are still at the experimental stage, whil
