Overview: Explores the vocational/professional nexus in the fields of study of food, tourism, hospitality and events.Provides innovative, creative, and practical approaches to research and scholarship in this fThis book elaborates upon, critiques and discusses 21st-century approaches to scholarship and research in the food, tourism, hospitality, and events trades and applied professions, using case examples of innovative practice. The specific field considered in this book is also placed against the backdrop of the larger question of how universities and other institutions of higher learning a

Overview: First book ever to give such a broad overview of the main research programs in evolutionary biology in the twentieth century.Timely book to focus on “research programs” instead of themes, historical p.The main goal of this book is to put the Darwinian tradition in context by raising questions such as: How should it be defined? Did it interact with other research programs? Were there any research programs that developed largely independently of the Darwinian tradition? Accordingly, the contributing authors explicitly explore the nature of the relationship between the Darwinian traditi

Overview: First monograph which identifies dialectic as a primary formative dynamic in the evolution of pre-modern Islamic legal systems.Offers the first introduction and development of a dialectics-based analy.The Dialectical Forge. identifies dialectical disputation (.jadal.) as a primary formative dynamic in the evolution of pre-modern Islamic legal systems, promoting dialectic from relative obscurity to a more appropriate position at the forefront of Islamic legal studies. The author introduces and develops a dialectics-based analytical method for the study of pre-modern Islamic legal argu

Overview: Definition of the barrier The interstitial fluid (rSF) of the brain is separated from the blood by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This barrier must not be thought of as a single entity or as an absolute restriction to all molecules, but as a multiple structure located at several sites within the brain. The first of these interfaces is located at the endothelium of the brain capillaries. Secondly there is a potential site for interchange on the outer linings of the brain between the dura and the arachnoid membranes. Thirdly, there are the choroid plexuses and the cerebrospinal fluid (

Overview: Gaussian quadrature is a powerful technique for numerical integration that falls under the broad category of spectral methods. The purpose of this work is to provide an introduction to the theory and practice of Gaussian quadrature. We study the approximation theory of trigonometric and orthogonal polynomials and related functions and examine the analytical framework of Gaussian quadrature. We discuss Gaussian quadrature for bandlimited functions, a topic inspired by some recent developments in the analysis of prolate spheroidal wave functions. Algorithms for the computation of the q

Overview: Considers transport effects in all environments.Discusses future designs of transport systems to minimize environmental degradation.Describes methods of amelioration of the damaging effects of transpo.Human transport by land, sea and air has increased exponentially through time in intensity, paralleling rises in population, prosperity and rates of technological change. Transport has considerable ecological effects, many of them detrimental to environmental sustainability. This volume brings together international experts from a variety of disciplines to review the ecological effects

Overview: Designed to be concise and easy to use.Fits in lab coat pocketThe evaluation of thyroid nodules by fine needle aspiration (FNA) is one of the most challenging tasks in all of cytopathology. A cytologist must understand the clinical presentation of thyroid diseases, their defining histopathologic and cytopathologic features, and even the intricacies of patient management. Drs. Clark and Faquin have provided a valuable framework for cytologists learning (and continuing to learn) this exacting discipline. Org- ized around a practical algorithm, the authors lay out a rational and concise

Overview: Includes an extended presentation of some Ratzel‘s lesser known essays, which are very important to understand his major books.Contains 29 maps of Friedrich Ratzel collected from several books.IntroduThis book discusses the influence of Friedrich Ratzel‘s ideas in more contemporary geopolitical analytical systems and the geodeterminism commonly attributed to him. The author thoroughly analyzes the structural components of Ratzel‘s thought. .The research is inspired by the numerous contradictory approaches in the secondary literature, presenting Ratzel as both humanist and racist, geo

Overview: Up-to-date results.Fast track conference proceedings.State-of-the-art report.This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing, SAT 2011, held in Ann Arbor, MI, USA in June 2011..The 25 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 2 invited talks and 10 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on complexity analysis, binary decision diagrams, theoretical analysis, extraction of minimal unsatisfiable subsets, SAT

Overview: On this voyage, you will learn.How humans gradually discovered the sea and its resources from the time of our remote ancestors.How pollution is affecting the sea, from the great plastic gyre to meltin.The “Blue Economy” is used to describe all of the economic activities related to the sea, with a special emphasis on sustainability. Traditional activities such as fisheries, but also undersea mining, tourism, and scientific research are included, as well as the phenomenal growth of aquaculture during the past decade. All of these activities, and the irresistible prospect of another new

Overview: This book examines the international discourse on ‘self-determination’.Reveals a battle between two ideas of freedom – a ‘liberal-conservative’ idea of freedom, and a ‘radical’ idea of freedom.ProposeThis book shows how international discourse citing ‘self-determination’ over the last hundred years has functioned as a battleground between two ideas of freedom: a ‘radical’ idea of freedom, and a ‘liberal-conservative’ idea of freedom. The book examines each of the major moments in which ‘self-determination’ has been a central part of the language of high-level international politics a

Overview: Summarizes methods to analyze dielectric properties over the whole spectral range from µHz up to the Infrared.Describes how to trace the scaling and the mutual interactions of relaxation processes.Dyn.The dielectric properties especially of glassy materials are nowadays explored at widely varying temperatures and pressures .without any gap. in the spectral range from µHz up to the Infrared, thus covering typically 20 decades or more. This extraordinary span enables to trace the scaling and the mutual interactions of relaxation processes in detail, e.g. the dynamic glass transition an
