BOOKS with Alphabet Q (Qa, Qb,Qc, Qd, Qe…)

Overview: This revision guide is intended to serve as a complement to the textbook. Its aim is essentially to provide past examination questions set by the Institute of Bankers and the examiners‘ own answers together with past questions set at the City of London Polytechnic and other questions, with their answers. This gives the reader a wider range of topics which reflects the contents of the textbook, and permits of selectivity to meet need. It is suggested that as each textbook chapter is read, the relevant section in the Revision Guide should be attempted in order to test knowledge and und

Overview: Provides an overview of microcirculation‘s role in emerging medical areas such as oncology and neuroscience.Readers will learn about mixed-dimensional models that elucidate complex interactions within.Microcirculation is a key area of interest within the realms of biology and medicine. As a vital discipline, microcirculatory biology forms a significant part of established medical fields like cardiovascular medicine and oncology, and is increasingly relevant in emerging fields such as neuroscience. With its multifaceted nature, the study of microcirculation has evolved from basic obse

Overview: .Many facets of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) are relevant to the in-depth discussion of theoretical and experimental aspects of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. Exciting phenomena are being discovered in such ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions, notably the increasingly important role of deconfined quark-gluon matter created in the early stage. The book contains lectures on the physics of hot dense matter, the expected phase transitions and colour superconductivity, recent developments in the treatment of nonlinear effects at large parton densities, fundamental issues in th

Overview: Gives an overview of the programming language Python. Offers a quick start to programming. Focus on the essentials.Christoph Schäfer introduces the great world of programming with Python and provides a quick introduction to independent script development. He points out how the programming language Python has established itself in recent years alongside MATLAB and R as a standard at scientific workplaces in research and development, and shows that the great popularity of Python is based on its easy extensibility: It is very easy to use modules from other developers in your own scripts

Overview: First scholarly book on medicinal plants of Belize.First book on traditional women’s healing practices of Belize.Reproductive health and fertility utilizing 60 plant species.Includes supplementary mat​The Q’eqchi’ Maya of Belize have an extensive pharmacopoeia of medicinal plants used traditionally for reproductive health and fertility, utilizing more than 60 plant species for these health treatments. Ten species were selected for investigation of their estrogenic activity using a reporter gene assay. Nine of the species were estrogenic, four of the species were also antiestrogenic,

Overview: Konzepte und ErfahrungenIn den letzten 20 Jahren war es erstaunlich zu beobachten, mit welchem Tempo die Themen ‘Qualität‘ und ‘Qualitätsmanagement‘ sowohl die Unternehmens- als auch die Beraterpraxis durchdrungen haben. Noch erstaunlicher ist die Feststellung, dass dieser Boom in wissenschaftlichen Veröffentlichungen kaum seinen Niederschlag gefunden hat. Das Gros der Literatur zum Qualitätsmanagement stellen bis heute (meist positiv gestimmte) Praxisberichte und praktische Handlungsempfehlungen dar. Die beklagte ‘Wissenschaftsferne‘ der Literatur und Praxis des Qualitätsmanagements

Overview: 8. 5 Summary In this chapter we have identified three basic patterns of influences that lead to ambiguity in the QP analysis of the basic active furnace state. We have then shown how modification of these patterns, by adding equilibrium values and sensitivity annotations on influence arcs, could permit resolu­ tion of the ambiguities. Finally, we have described in detail the extensions needed to the basic influence resolution algorithm in QP theory to oper­ ate on these extended descriptions. We have also shown that the modified influence resolution algorithm corrects an error in For

Overview: Provides an overview of conventional and emerging quantum dot photodetectors.Introduces various technologies to improve the performance of quantum dot photodetectors.Covers optoelectronic manipulation.This book presents a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art quantum dot photodetectors, including device fabrication technologies, optical engineering/manipulation strategies, and emerging photodetectors with building blocks of novel quantum dots (e.g. perovskite) as well as their hybrid structured (e.g. 0D/2D) materials. Semiconductor quantum dots have attracted much attention due

Overview: This book gathers together chemical ideas which are important for understanding how drugs act and how new drugs may be developed. Students meet some of these ideas in courses in chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology but in my experience they find it difficult to put together information often acquired in different years and from different departments; they need it set out in a book. I believe also that it helps if they can see how these ideas may be applied to numerical problems so I have included examples (with answers), many of which are taken from research work. These should th

Overview: The basis of the book is the use of material contributed by international experts in the field, raning from general introductory material to the most recent developments.Both theory and experiments arThe concept of squeezing is intimately related to the idea of vacuum fluctu­ ations, once thought to place an absolute limit to the accuracy of measure­ ment. However, vacuum fluctuations are not unchangeable. By recognizing that these quantum fluctuations always occur in two complementary observ­ ables, physicists have been able to make an intriguing trade-off. Reduced fluctuations in o

Overview: Contributions written by world leading experts.On the fundamentals of quantum information.Hot physics for the 21st century.Includes supplementary material: issues raised by quantum theory, a topic not very popular during his student days at Queen‘s University, Belfast. Apparently, John Bell, who had been interested in the Bohr-Einstein dialogue, always took the position of Albert Einstein on philosophical issues. He also felt that a completion of quantum mechanics using so-called "hidden variables" would be highly desired, as it would help to regain a realistic and objective picture
