Overview: fifteen countries in Scandinavia, Europe, Asia, Australia, and U.S.A. All of them came to Stockholm primarily because they recognize the growing im­ portance of networks as complex systems, and their home institutions do not offer any systematic lectures on this topic. The Networks Course was originally initiated jointly by the Summer University of Southern Stockholm Foundation and the County Council of Stockholm, the Swedish Aviation Administration, the Swedish National Road Administration, the Swedish Post, the Swedish State Railways, and Telia AB. They have all served as joint spo

Overview: The aim of this book is to provide a unified presentation of modern mechanics of structures in a form which is suitable for graduate students as well as for engineers and scientists working in the field of applied mechanics. Traditionally, students at technical universities have been taught subjects such as continuum mechanics, elasticity, plates and shells, frames or finite element techniques in an entirely separate manner. The authors‘ teaching experience clearly suggests that this situation frequently tends to create in students‘ minds an incomplete and inconsistent picture of the

Overview: Prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolism have made one of the major impacts in medicine. Heparin has widely been used as the most effective drug during the last 50 years. However, its potential side effects have led to the search for equally effective but safer alternatives. At present, the low-molecular-weight heparins are the most promising steps in this direction. Considerable interest has been generated at the same time in exploring other gly­ cosaminoglycans of the nonheparin type for therapeutic use. The existence of these com­ pounds has been known for a long time and subs

Overview: Saul Kripke‘s Naming and Necessity was one of the most influential philosophical works of the twentieth century. In this collection of essays leading specialists explore issues arising from this and other works of Kripke‘s.978-1-349-48624-3978-1-137-40093-2

Overview: Bei der Behandlung von primären und sekundären Lebertumoren konnten in den letzten Jahren entscheidende Fortschritte erzielt werden. Aus dem therapeutischen Nihilismus vor 15 Jahren hat sich eine sehr differenzierte und aktive therapeutische Vorgehensweise entwickelt. Die aktuellen Aspekte der Tumorbiologie, die Indikationen und Therapiemöglichkeiten mittels regionaler und systemischer cytostatischer und immunmodulatorischer Behandlung auf der einen Seite und die Wertigkeit der Lebertransplantation und der erweiterten Leberresektion auf der anderen Seite werden ausführlich besprochen

Overview: "Diese Einführung zeichnet sich durch eine klare, gut lesbare Darstellung aus und ist eine gelungene Synthese zwischen theoretischer Begründung und praktischer Anwendung der behandelten Methoden. Deshalb ist sie auch zu einem Standardlehrbuch der Numerischen Mathematik geworden." #.Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten.#1 "Unter den Numerik-Lehrbüchern ... sei auf das vorliegende Buch besonders hingewiesen, da hier bei allen Ansprüchen an mathematische Strenge das Schwergewicht auf die Bereitstellung von praktikablen Algorithmen nach neuesten Erkenntnissen mit vielen numerischen B

Overview: Acid rain, global warming, ozone depletion, and smog are preeminent environmental problems facing the world today. Non-thermal plasma techniques offer an innovative approach to the solution of some of these problems. There are many types of non-thermal plasma devices that have been developed for environmental applications. The potential of these devices for the destruction of pollutants or toxic molecules has already been demonstrated in many contexts, such as nitrogen oxides (NOX) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) in flue gases, heavy metals and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in industria

Overview: The first book to explicitly address a political approach to neuroethics.Provides a strong argument on the much debated issue of cognitive enhancement practices within society.Deals with specific poli.This book explicitly addresses policy options in a democratic society regarding cognitive enhancement drugs and devices. The book offers an in-depth case by case analysis of existing and emerging cognitive neuroenhancement technologies and canvasses a distinct political neuroethics approach. The author provides an argument on the much debated issue of fairness of cognitive enhancement p

Overview: Written by leading scientists in the field.Includes contributions from two of the founding-fathers of neural field theory: Shun-ichi Amari and Jack Cowan.The first comprehensive collection of results Neural field theory has a long-standing tradition in the mathematical and computational neurosciences. Beginning almost 50 years ago with seminal work by Griffiths and culminating in the 1970ties with the models of Wilson and Cowan, Nunez and Amari, this important research area experienced a renaissance during the 1990ties by the groups of Ermentrout, Robinson, Bressloff, Wright and Hake

Overview: Includes supplementary material: NLDB 2005, the 10th International Conference on Applications of Natural L- guage to Information Systems, was held on June 15–17, 2005 at the University of Alicante, Spain. Since the ?rst NLDB conference in 1995 the main goal has been to provide a forum to discuss and disseminate research on the integration of natural language resources in information system engineering. The development and convergence of computing, telecommunications and information systems has already led to a revolution in the way that we work, communicate with each other, buy goods

Overview: Explores Joyce‘s uses of and allusions to Nordic texts and history.Theoretical approach utilises a digital corpus linguistic tool to identify keywords across Joyce and Nordic translations.Charts conne.This book compares the interrelationship of Irish writer James Joyce‘s literary works and specific Nordic literature in translation, employing an onomastic and etymological framework. It elucidates the importance of these frequent Scandinavian associations and how they inform and shape his literary work. The development of Joyce‘s work shows a sustained interest in contemporary Nordic a

Overview: It is generally acknowledged that deterministic formulations of dy­ namical phenomena in the social sciences need to be treated differently from similar formulations in the natural sciences. Social science phe­ nomena typically defy precise measurements or data collection that are comparable in accuracy and detail to those in the natural sciences. Con­ sequently, a deterministic model is rarely expected to yield a precise description of the actual phenomenon being modelled. Nevertheless, as may be inferred from a study of the models discussed in this book, the qualitative analysis of

Overview: In the last two decades, there has been a major increase in the actual numbers of women diagnosed with breast cancer (from 65000 new cases 20 years ago in the United States to 183000 in 1993). Concomitant with this has been a shift toward making the diagnosis earlier and toward diagnosing an earlier stage ofthe disease (more than 70% of diagnoses were of advanced-stage disease two decades ago, whereas more than 70% of diagnoses are now earlier-stage disease in 1992). These changes are clearly related to the woman‘s greater sensitivity to abnormalities in the breast and her seeking me
