Overview: Presents a state-of-the-art review of an exciting new class of materials.Explains theoretical techniques required to become active in the field in a textbook-like manner.Describes magnetic monopoles iThis book deals with a new class of magnetic materials, spin ice. Spin ice has become the canonical example of modern frustrated magnetism where competing interactions between spins set the rules for an emergent magnetostatic gauge field theory. Excitations take the form of magnetic monopoles or can condense via a Higgs mechanism. Beyond classical spin ice, the book describes the new phy

Overview: These essays span the author‘s thirty years in professional economics. Fundamental papers on vertical (industrial) control, property rights, approaches to market behaviour, macroeconomic dynamics and the paper-money systems of 18th century British North America are revised and reappraised.978-1-349-09978-8

Overview: Touch upon current topics in breast cancer screening.More individualized screening system for breast cancers are focused upon.Possible understand background and advances on the risk reduction of breas.This book provides readers with the most up-to-date practical information on breast cancer screening. Since breast cancers are highly heterogeneous, time to clinical onset from the initial carcinogenesis differs diversely between cancers. Pathological germline variants and driver mutations cause a high lifetime risk of breast cancer. The lifetime risks are various according to what gene

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Das brisante Thema "Sterbehilfe" wirft wie derzeit kein anderes schwierige und komplexe Fragestellungen auf. In der kontrovers in Öffentlichkeit und Fachwelt geführten Diskussion stehen sich die Argumente diametral gegenüber. Das vorliegende Buch beleuchtet die einzelnen Facetten der Thematik. Während in Deutschland die "aktive Sterbehilfe" nach wie vor strafbar sein soll, werden in der Politik Überlegungen angestellt, die "passive Sterbehilfe" straffrei zu machen. Auch die Änderung des Betreuungsrechts steht in diesem Zusammenhang zur Diskussion. Vo
