Overview:

Overview: The present sixth volume of ISSI Space Sciences Series is the outcome of the most ambitious study project of ISSI hitherto, that on ‘Source and Loss Processes of Magnetospheric Plasma‘. The goal has been to produce a fully integrated book on the subject, which gives an authoritative overview of all aspects of the topic in a well organized form, useful and readable both for active researchers in the field and for young scientists who are starting their research in space physics. In order to represent the full diversity of experience and perspective that exists in the science community

Overview: Das erste deutschsprachige Lehrbuch der Motivationspsychologie, das sich längst zu einem Standardwerk entwickelt hat, liegt jetzt in der zweiten, vollständig überarbeiteten Auflage vor. Es gibt einen umfassenden Überblick über den derzeitigen Stand der Motivationsforschung, die in der Vielfalt ihrer Ansätze heute nur noch schwer überschaubar ist. Behandelt werden neueste empirische und theoretische Aspekte, methodische Fragestellungen, wichtige Motivationskonzepte und Anwendungsaspekte. Der Text wurde an vielen Stellen gestrafft, um der Entwicklung der Forschung in den letzten 10 Jah

Overview: This volume contains the scientific papers and abstracts of posters presented at the International Symposium on Molecular Insect Science held in Tucson, Arizona, October 22-27, 1989. This meeting was organized by the Center for Insect Science at the University of Arizona in response to the growing need for a forum dedicated to the impact of modern biology on insect science. While scientific studies of a few insects, notably Drosophila melanogaster, have always had a central role in the development of biology, it is only recently that tools have become available to extend these studie

Overview: This volume contains the proceedings of a workshop which was held in Brussels during the month of August 1989. A strong motivation for organizing this workshop was to bring together people who have been involved in the microscopic simulation of phenomena occuring on "large" space and time scales. Indeed, results obtained in the last years by different groups tend to support the idea that macroscopic behavior already appears in systems small enough so as to be modelled by a collection of interacting particles on a (super) computer. Such an approach is certainly desirable to study situ

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The present volume is the second in a two-volume set dealing with modelling and numerical simulations in electrochemistry. Emphasis is placed on the aspect of nanoelectrochemical issues. It seems appropriate at this juncture to mention the n- growing body of opinion in some circles that George Box was right when he stated, three decades ago, that “All models are wrong, but some are useful”. Actually, when the statement itself was made it would have been more appropriate to say that “All models are inaccurate but most are useful nonetheless”. At presen

Overview: .It is now over ten years since we edited the first edition of .HLA-B27. in the Development of Spondyloarthropathies (SpA). It is obvious that over this period an enormous amount of information concerning SpA and HLA-B27 has accumulated, and this has been reflected in the knowledge of molecular mechanism of the spondyloarthropathies. Discussion for such a book took initial form at the outstanding 4th Gent Symposium on SpA in October 2006, but was not formally commissioned by Landes Bioscience until early 2007. .Molecular Mechanisms of Spondyloarthropathies. aims to synthesize this gr
