Overview: In this book, leading academics and policy practitioners develop approaches for managing critical contemporary and emerging security challenges for South East Europe. They attempt to conceptualize and realize security as a cooperative endeavour for collective good, in contrast to security narratives driven by power and national egotism.978-1-349-43630-9978-1-137-01020-9Series ISSN 2731-0329 Series E-ISSN 2731-0337

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Statistical learning theory is aimed at analyzing complex data with necessarily approximate models. This book is intended for an audience with a graduate background in probability theory and statistics. It will be useful to any reader wondering why it may be a good idea, to use as is often done in practice a notoriously "wrong‘‘ (i.e. over-simplified) model to predict, estimate or classify. This point of view takes its roots in three fields: information theory, statistical mechanics, and PAC-Bayesian theorems. Results on the large deviations of traje

Overview: Deals with cultural approaches to nature conservation at a global level.Is an original in discussing sacred landscapes, indigenous knowledge, ethno-culture, and natural resource management.Supports th.This book examines the relationship between sacred landscapes, indigenous knowledge, ethno-culture, and natural resource management. The volume contributes to the existing literature on landscape studies and cultural geography by examining local perceptions toward multiple aspects of sacred landscape and ethno-culture under changing social and economic contexts, with case studies from d

Overview: Skills Update - an ongoing series in the magazine Community Outlook, aims to update qualified nurses in skills they use in everyday practice as well as provide an overview of some more specialised skills that require personal tuition. Although some topics covered may appear quite simple, experienced nurses find them an excellent aid for reflecting on, and improving, their practice. They also provide an aide-memoire, and a useful tool for teaching and for discussion with students.

Overview: Presents recent advances on the function of natural killer cellsOur understanding of the function of natural killer (NK) cells has dramatically changed in recent years. The discovery of NK receptors specific for MHC class I molecules, and the study of the role of co-stimulatory and adhesion molecules have led to an understanding of how NK cells recognize tumor and virally infected cells that have lost expression of MHC class I molecules or have altered distribution of normal cell surface molecules. Such recognition events lead to intracellular signals which can be either stimulatory
