Overview: Discusses public happiness over individual happiness.Examines policy orientations and governance innovation in order to increase public happiness.Introduces the beyond-GDP movement.We all strive for personal happiness in one way or another, but what about public happiness? What does public happiness mean and what role can governments and public policies play? The current COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the inadequacies of old governance paradigms and even before this pandemic, increasing inequalities and frustration with the old GDP-centric growth paradigm have fueled dissatisfacti

Overview: Over the past three decades, professions across the European Union have faced significant and radical challenges. This book analyses three professional groups involved in the academic and health sectors and how they are affected by different national Welfare State models such as Mediterranean, Scandinavian and Anglo Saxon.978-1-137-48700-1Series ISSN 2946-319X Series E-ISSN 2946-3203

Overview: At the beginning of this series of volumes on Color Chemistry, the editors pointed to a number of events that have served as stimuli for techno­ logical advances in the field, thus preventing dyestuff manufacturing from becoming what might otherwise be viewed by now as a ‘sunset industry‘. The volumes which followed have provided ample evidence for our belief that the field of colour chemistry is very much alive, though arguably in need of further stimulus. For instance, a viable approach to the design of new chromophores and to the design of metal-free acid, direct, and reactive dye

Overview: covers microarray data analysis, which is absent in both competing books in addition to QTL mapping.introduces Bayesian method, which was not available in both competing books.uses more rigorous mathe.Statistical genomics is a rapidly developing field, with more and more people involved in this area. However, a lack of synthetic reference books and textbooks in statistical genomics has become a major hurdle on the development of the field. Although many books have been published recently in bioinformatics, most of them emphasize DNA sequence analysis under a deterministic approach. .

Overview: Includes cutting-edge methods and protocols.Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results.Contains key notes and implementation advice from the expertsThis second edition volume expands on the previous edition with updated research and techniques to help laboratory workers design and implement a successful purification strategy, emphasize critical aspects on practical problems, and answers questions encountered at the lab bench. The chapters in this book are divided into five parts: Part One discusses an overview of screening and design of purification strategies an

Overview: Als ich dieses Buch schrieb, hatte ich ein einfaches, aber hochgestecktes Ziel vor Augen: Ihnen die Grundlagen der Programmierung der wichtigen IBM PC­ Modelle zu vermitteln. Als IBM im Herbst 1981 ihren ersten Personal Com­ puter vorstellte, war klar, daf~ das Gerät eine herausragende Bedeutung auf dem Mikrocomputersektor spielen würde. Im Laufe der Zeit stellte IBM eine Reihe neuer PCs vor, mittlerweile ist eine komplette Produktpalette daraus IBM PC gilt heute als der Industriestandard bei kommerziellen geworden. Der Mikrocom pu terno Um den IBM PC herum entstand eine eigene Branc

Overview: Concentrates on honey and the stingless bees that produce it.This work is an effort to bring together experts on Meliponini.Updated information, guidelines and references offer scientific background tThe stingless bees are one of the most diverse, attractive, fascinating, conspicuous and useful of all the insect groups of the tropical world. This is a formidable and contentious claim but I believe it can be backed up. They are fifty times more species rich than the honey bees, the other tribe of highly eusocial bees. They are ubiquitous in the tropics and thrive in tropical cities. I

Overview: Die HÜTTE Des Ingenieurs Taschenbuch, repräsentiert durch den Band HÜTTE I Theoretische Grundlagen, hat in vielen Auflagen in Ingenieurkreisen weite Verbreitung gefunden. 1955 erschien von diesem Band die 28. Auflage. Auf über 1600 Seiten enthielt er die mathematischen, physikalischen, meßtechnischen und stoffkundliehen Grundlagen, die zum unentbehrlichen Rüstzeug bei jeder Ingenieurtätigkeit gehören. In den 15 Jahren seit Erscheinen dieses Bandes hat sich eine Entwick­ lung vollzogen, die es unmöglich macht, eine verbesserte Auflage in un­ veränderter Form herauszubringen. Die zuneh

Overview: Since the publication in 1979 of Introduction to Analytical Electron Microscopy (ed. J. J. Hren, J. I. Goldstein, and D. C. Joy; Plenum Press), analytical electron microscopy has continued to evolve and mature both as a topic for fundamental scientific investigation and as a tool for inorganic and organic materials characterization. Significant strides have been made in our understanding of image formation, electron diffraction, and beam/specimen interactions, both in terms of the "physics of the processes" and their practical implementation in modern instruments. It is the intent of

Overview: This book explores new critical ground by addressing the intersection of two contentious concepts, postfeminism and Gothic. This collection of original and exciting essays examines a number of Gothic texts, from Anne Radcliffe‘s romances to modern horror films, in conjunction with diverse postfeminist theories, from backlash to postmodern feminism.978-1-349-28212-8978-0-230-80130-1

Overview: General Practice is undergoing the most major series of changes since the introduction of the National Health Service in 1948. They concern both concepts of care and practical details of the way care is delivered. In spite of the hostility generated by the changes most of the broad general concepts have been accepted. The principle of patients having more choice is widely supported, the inclusion of preventive medicine and anticipatory care in the responsibilities of practice has few opponents, the introduction of audit as a way of improving performance has been generally welcomed.

Overview: viii The danger is that the result so obtained may be an experimental artifact. Another approach is to examine in as much detail as possible the principles underlying the operation of a new device. This may not lead to a new sensor immediately, but those developed along these lines tend to be more reliable. The accent in this book is therefore on the principles behind the operation ("the trade") rather than on a description of applications ("the tricks of the trade") of individual sensors. In this respect it is written for students at both graduate and upper undergraduate levels. App

Overview: The 19th volume deals, as did its predecessor, with current problems of tropical medicine. Both volumes are based on various international Symposia which were held in Bombay on the occasion of the 75-year Platinum Jubilee of the Haffkine Institute in the Spring of 1974. The contributions in the 19th volume are based on lectures at thetast three Symposia which dealt with Helminthiasis, Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus and Cholera. The 70 articles provide the reader with an impressive cross-section of the current state of specialized knowledge on the subject and the outstanding problems.
