Overview: Focuses on region specific topics of neglected tropical diseases in an economically diverse region.Individual chapters are authored by teams of experts for the topic.Includes an extensive discussion oThe Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is highly endemic for several neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), including viral, bacterial, protozoan and helminth infections. This new volume covers the most prevalent NTDs found in about 22 MENA countries emphasizing the disease burden, clinical manifestations and control approaches. Each individual chapter deals with one specific disease and i

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.978-3-662-40849-0978-3-662-41333-3

Overview: F. Macfarlane Burnet I have been an interested onlooker for many years at research on the biology of trace elements, particularly in its bearing on the pas­ toral and agricultural importance of copper, zinc, cobalt, and mo­ lybdenum deficiencies in the soil of various parts of Australia. More recently I have developed a rather more specific interest in the role of zinc, particularly in relation to the dominance of zinc metalloenzymes in the processes of DNA replication and repair, and its possible significance for human pathology. One area of special significance is the striking effe

Overview: Provides a thorough and systematic analysis of the Christian approach to Islamic cultures and practices in early modern Europe.Critically examines how the perception of an impermeable boundary betweenThis book is an investigative study of Christian and Islamic relations in the kingdom of Sicily during the eleventh and twelfth centuries. It has three objectives. First, it establishes how and why the Norman rulers of Sicily, all of whom were Christians, incorporated Muslim soldiers, farmers, scholars, and bureaucrats into the formation of their own royal identities and came to depend o

Overview: A celebration of nursing as a profession, which is underpinned by rigorous ethical theory. Today‘s nurses find themselves in the position of having to redefine their identity.They must ask themselves why they matter, what is important about them as professionals, and how they contribute as team members..Starting from an ethical standpoint, this book explores the nature of nursing and the dilemmas facing today‘s professionals.The author shares her vision of a new kind of professional - a vision which will empower readers to discover fresh meaning in their work and in their role.978-0-

Overview: De kindertijd is heel belangrijk voor de de mens. Of zoals auteur David Bjorklund zegt: ‘Kinderen moeten de tijd en ruimte hebben om te kunnen spelen, observeren en zomaar een beetje aan te rommelen‘.In Neem de tijd voor de kindertijd onderzoekt de auteur de lange periode van lichamelijke, sociale en intellectuele onvolwassenheid die wij ‘als soort‘ doormaken op weg naar volwassenheid. Die weg wordt voor een deel biologisch en voor een deel sociaal-maatschappelijk bepaald. Dit samenspel wordt vanuit een evolutionair perspectief helder uitgewerkt. Hoe hebben veranderingen binnen de sa

Overview: Past efforts to colonize the environment and domesticate living species, coupled with scientific research, have resulted in the possession (but not always the real control) by humans of any available terrestrial space. However, oceans, which represent up to two­ thirds of the surface of the planet, had not been really approached until the middle of this century. As oceanographic science develops, the picture of a rich, diverse, complex and also, in many respects, specific marine life, is coming into view. In a broad sense, marine biotechnologies can be understood as the various means

Overview: Nonmonotonic logics were created as an abstraction of some types of common sense reasoning, analogous to the way classical logic serves to formalize ideal reasoning about mathematical objects. These logics are nonmonotonic in the sense that enlarging the set of axioms does not necessarily imply an enlargement of the set of formulas deducible from these axioms. Such situations arise naturally, for example, in the use of information of different degrees of reliability..This book emphasizes basic concepts by outlining connections between different formalisms of nonmonotonic logic, and g

Overview: Balances the abstract functional-analysis approach with concrete partial differential equations.Methods of Galerkin or of Rothe are exposed in a large generality.Primarily intended for graduate and Ph.This book primarily concerns quasilinear and semilinear elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations, inequalities, and systems. It balances the abstract functional-analysis approach based on nonlinear monotone, pseudomonotone, weakly continuous, or accretive mappings with concrete partial differential equations in their weak (or more general) formulation. Methods of Galerkin o
