Overview: Adopts an interdisciplinary approach, articulating mathematics education and psychology.Helps teachers understand the cognitive processes involved in learning mathematics and develop better strategies.This book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to investigate the development of mathematical reasoning in both children and adults and to show how understanding the learner’s cognitive processes can help teachers develop better strategies to teach mathematics. This contributed volume departs from the interdisciplinary field of psychology of mathematics education and brings together con

Overview: Three hundred and fifty-one men were executed by British Army firing-squads between September 1914 and November 1920. By far the greatest number were shot for desertion in the face of the enemy. Controversial even at the time, these executions of soldiers amid the horrors of the Western Front continue to haunt the history of war. This book provides a critical analysis of military law in the British army and other major armies during the First World War, with particular reference to the use of the death penalty. This study establishes a full cultural and legal framework for military d

Overview: Part I of this book accounts for new developments concerning robustness, systems with two time scales and related treatments utilizing singular perturbation analysis. Part II is mainly concerned with systems in which uncertainty comes out through quantum mechanical rules; that is, with quantum filtering and control and nondemolition measurements. These are essential steps on the way from quantum physics to quantum technology. Part III reports recent results in mathematical economics, in the framework of dynamic optimization. Part IV is concerned with applications of Bellman‘s approac

Overview: Mitochondrial transport systems are essential to mitochondrial function and therefore to energy homeostasis within the cell. .The book contains studies utilizing the techniques of biochemistry, physiology, molecular biology and genetics to reveal the structure and function of mitochondrial transport systems. .It is divided into the following six sections: .- Proton Translocation: The Uncoupling Protein and the ATPase; - Carriers and Transporters; - Mitochondrial Ion Channels; Structure of the Outer Mitochondrial Membrane Channel, VDAC; - VDAC, Peripheral Kinases and Energy Utilizatio

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of a protein is absolutely required for the complete understanding of its function. The spatial orientation of amino acids in the active site of an enzyme demonstrates how substrate specificity is defined, and assists the medicinal chemist in the design of s- cific, tight-binding inhibitors. The shape and contour of a protein surface hints at its interaction with other proteins and with its environment. Structural ana- sis of multiprotein complexes helps to define the role and interaction of each individual

Overview: The third Symposium of the Foundation for Life Sciences was held in February 1983 at the Newport Inn Conference Centre in Sydney. It was direced towards an understanding of the molecular neuropathology of muscle and nerve under a wide variety of conditions that may be induced by external agents or genetic lesions. The first session on experimental neurology explored the processes involved in maintenance of nerve and muscle function. This included many papers on myelination, studies on immune reactions affecting nerves, on synapses, and on neuronal development. This section was expand

Overview: Considers Stael‘s original take of ‘communal liberalism‘ through the prism of her main writings.Challenges conventional 19th century liberal thinking in debating the need for rigorous separation of pu.This book sheds light on the unique aspects of ‘communal liberalism’ in Mme de Staël’s writings and considers her contribution to nineteenth-century French liberal political thought. Focusing notably on the ‘Considérations sur les principaux événements de la Révolution française’, it examines the originality of Stael’s liberal philosophy. Rather than contrasting liberalism with either m

Overview: .Increasingly, medicine in general and nephrology specifically is based on clinical trials and verifiable presumption. Still, however, much of everyday clinical practice is the consensus of pundits and experts unable to validate their suggestions beyond personal bias. ..In this unique volume, several core beliefs in renal medicine are examined and challenged. Starting as assignments for nephrology fellows, this book grew out of surprising `revelations‘ indicating that `the emperor has no clothes‘. ..The book is suitable as a stimulus for provocative discussions for nephrologists, int

Overview: Unique in providing a philosophically and historically based introduction to modal logic accessible to every reader, emphasizing the notion of multimodality as a background while carefully delineatingIn the last two decades modal logic has undergone an explosive growth, to thepointthatacompletebibliographyofthisbranchoflogic,supposingthat someone were capable to compile it, would ?ll itself a ponderous volume. What is impressive in the growth of modal logic has not been so much the quick accumulation of results but the richness of its thematic dev- opments. In the 1960s, when Kripke

Overview: Die Biometrie ist nicht nur für die medizinische Wissenschaft unverzichtbar geworden, sie ist auch wichtig für den klinisch tätigen Arzt. Das Erkennen von Krankheiten und die Beurteilung des Erfolgs therapeutischer oder präventiver Maßnahmen beruhen auf empirischem Wissen. Alle hieraus gezogenen Schlußfolgerungen sind somit Wahrscheinlichkeitsaussagen. Daten verläßlich zu gewinnen und richtig zu interpretieren ist äußerst wichtig, um Risiken abschätzen zu können. Dazu muß man die Methoden kennen. In diesem Taschenlehrbuch werden die wichtigsten biometrischen Verfahren dargestellt. Da
