The authors challenge simplistic explanations of Indigenous success in Australian.football and rugby league, centered on the notion of the ‘natural athlete’. The book traces.the de

Overview: Discussing extensively the role and applications of SMs from fungal, bacterial and endophytic biocontrol agents.Emphasizes the details of employing biosynthesised SMs from agriculturally important micRecent changes in the pattern of agricultural practices from use of hazardous pesticides to natural (organic) cultivation has brought into focus the use of agriculturally important microorganisms for carrying out analogous functions. The reputation of plant growth promoting rhizomicroorganisms (PGPRs) is due to their antagonistic mechanisms against most of the fungal and bacterial phytop

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, Germany.Addresses and advances the challenging problem of strongly fluctuating systems that include time delay.PrThe nonequilibrium behavior of nanoscopic and biological systems, which are typically strongly fluctuating, is a major focus of current research. Lately, much progress has been made in understanding such systems from a thermodynamic perspective. However, new theoretical challenges emerge when the fluctuating system is additionally subject to time delay, e.g. due to the presence of feedba

Overview: Discusses Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), their features aligning with goals of parallel processing modeling methods.Describes implementation of ANNs using three layers: input, output, and the hiddeThis book discusses Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and their ability to predict outcomes using deep and shallow learning principles. The author first describes ANN implementation, consisting of at least three layers that must be established together with cells, one of which is input, the other is output, and the third is a hidden (intermediate) layer. For this, the author states, it is

Overview: First book which is not exclusively focused on ion channels functioning in sensory mechanisms that are characteristic of animals and humans, but also describes the role of ion channels in signal trans.All living cells are able to detect and translate environmental stimuli into biologically meaningful signals. Sensations of touch, hearing, sight, taste, smell or pain are essential to the survival of all living organisms. The importance of sensory input for the existence of life thus justifies the effort made to understand its molecular origins. Sensing with Ion Channels focuses on ion

Overview: The great, complex and rapid change happening in fonner Soviet Union is overfloading an impressive impact on the western world, especially Europe, and, in the close future, on the global world. Most of this change is generating positive effects and even more optimistic expectations, but surely the difficulties to support and to render these results real and longlasting cannot be underestimated . In fact, difficulties in the adaptation, especially of the most important Countries capabilities, like R&D process and Innovation development and transfer, are being evidenced in the transiti

Overview: Presents measurement methods and the most essential results of analyses concerning the parameter estimation of mathematical models of synchronous generators and excitation systems operating in a powerIn simulation tests of dynamic states of the power system (PS), the database of parameters of mathematical models of generating units is most commonly used. In many cases, the parameter values are burdened with large errors. Consequently, the results obtained are not reliable and do not allow drawing true conclusions. This monograph presents the developed methods and tools supporting the

Overview: Explicates a sociological concept.Employs an empirical approach to the macrosociology of law.Deals with unanticipated effects of law.Societal Stress and Law. draws attention to the social side effects of law by developing the sociological concept of society-level stress, a corollary of the concept of individual-level stress in the biological sciences. To encourage interest in societal stress, the book looks at (1) instances of law adopted by American states that the U.S. Supreme Court held unconstitutional and (2) actions by American states with regard to a proposal to amend the fede

Overview: Every human being is aware of the flow of time. This fact isembodied in the existence of such notions as the past and the future,the two domains being separated from each other by the single momentof the present. While the past is regarded as fixed and definite, thefuture is viewed as unknown, uncertain, and undetermined. The onlyperceivable moment is the present, the `now‘ - theever-changing point moving from the past into the future. .Physics tells us a different story: not only are the vast majority ofphysical laws time-reversible, but the concept of the `now‘ itself hasno place a
