Overview: Ein starkes Jahr nach dem Erscheinen des ersten Bandes wird nun­ mehr der zweite Band der "Moderne Probleme der Metallphysik" vorgelegt. Dieser führt zunächst im siebten Kapitel die Behandlung der elektronischen Struktur der Kristalle weiter. Während sich das sechste Kapitel im wesentlichen auf die Ein-Elektronen-Theorie stützte, befaßt sich das siebte Kapitel mit Viel-Elektronen-Problemen. Das für die Kristallphysik wichtigste dieser Probleme ist zweifellos die Frage nach dem Zustandekommen und der Natur der chemischen Bindung. Die Behandlung dieser Frage in Kapitel sieben leitet üb

Overview: Das vorliegende Buch ist für die Fachschule konzipiert und damit auf die Belange der Praxis abgestimmt. Inhaltlich umfaßt es den Lehrstoff der Mathematik für Fachschulen der Technik, ist aber in seinen wesentlichen Zügen so gehalten, daß es auch in anderen Schularten verwendet werden kann, die zu einem mittleren Bildungsabschluß (mittlere Reife, Fachschulreife) führen. Der didaktische Grundgedanke war es, grundlegende Kenntnisse anwendungsorientiert zu vermitteln, ohne dabei die angemessene begriffliche und mathematische Sorgfalt außer acht zu lassen.

Overview: Neurotraumatology patients present an enormous challenge to society. Neuros- gical management of brain and spinal cord injury has been a frustrating area, as s- gical methods, especially in moderate and severe injuries, have been limited to control of brain and spinal compression, control of intracranial pressure with its expected effect on cerebral blood flow, and structural repair of the supporting structures (skull, spine, brain and spinal cord coverings). Achieving the best outcome for the neu- traumatology patient, however, requires much more than that. This important issue has

Overview: Mobile systems - primarily cellular telephony - have been the fastest moving telecommunications development to date with a world-wide customer base that in the ten or so years to April 1996 reached 100 million and continues with a current growth rate of 60% per annum world-wide. Predictions suggest that the customer base will exceed 1 billion within the next ten years and that the saturation level is around 80% of any population. Faced with such statistics any book such as this can proffer little more than a snapshot of the activities and developments that are at present taking place
