Overview: Indicators used to direct ecomonic policy (GDP, national income, etc.) are based on a number of factors ß but nowhere in their calculation is there an acknowledgement of the degradation of natural resources. The numbers may look good, but continued deterioration of the environment is leading us closer to crises; meanwhile, policymakers and the public are basing decisions on dangerously incomplete information. In .Taking Nature into Account., a number of the world‘s leading experts make the ethical, historical, economic, and ecological arguments for including environmental factors whe

Overview: Many excellent volumes have been written on the chemistry of cellulose and its derivatives. Judging by the number of conferences which have been assembled to deal with the topic, cellulose and its derivatives continue to arouse great scientific interest. Matching this interest has been the development in copolymer science and technology. In both instances the driving force has been the search for products having useful, new or interesting properties. It appeared inevitable that these two concepts would be brought together at some time in the research and development of cellulosic cop

Overview: Presents the theory, observations, mathematical modelling techniques and applications of sea ice drift science.Details analytical modelling in one chapter to increase the understanding of the physics .The Second Edition of The Drift of Sea Ice presents the fundamental laws of sea ice drift which come from the material properties of sea ice and the basic laws of mechanics. The resulting system of equations is analysed for the general properties of sea ice drift, the free drift model and analytical models for ice drift in the presence of internal friction, and the construction of numer

Overview: The first book available on the concept, analysis, and design of time-synchronized control.Includes detailed Matlab/Python code for control system design, not just mathematics and stability analysis.OPrevious research on fixed/finite-time sliding-mode control focuses on forcing a system state (vector) to converge within a certain time moment, regardless of how each state element converges. This book introduces a control problem with unique finite/fixed-time stability considerations, namely time-synchronized stability, where at the same time, all the system state elements converge to

Overview: Presents an interdisciplinary field approached from various.Offers concise, to the point papers.Highlights the latest developments.Includes supplementary material: .The Conference on Traffic and Granular Flow brings togetherinternational researchers from different fields ranging from physics tocomputer science and engineering to discuss the latest developments intraffic-related systems. Originally conceived to facilitate new ideas byconsidering the similarities of traffic and granular flow, TGF‘15, organised byDelft University of Technology, now covers a broad range of topics related

Overview: Prepares students and researchers for experimental results report.Gives a genuine understanding of statistical inference procedures.Provides a Bayesian framework for a new approach to experimental datThe purpose of this book is not only to revisit the “significance test controversy,”but also to provide a conceptually sounder alternative. As such, it presents a Bayesian framework for a new approach to analyzing and interpreting experimental data. It also prepares students and researchers for reporting on experimental results. Normative aspects: The main views of statistical tests are

Overview: Includes supplementary material: It has been our experience that instruction in physical examination of the heart in medical schools has been deteriorating since the advent of such modern diagnostic tools as two-dimensional echocardiography and nuclear imaging. At best, the teaching has been sketchy and too superficial for the student to appreciate the pathophysiological correlates. Both invasive and the noninvasive modern technologies have contributed substantially to our knowledge and understanding of cardiac physical signs and their pathophysiological correlates. However, both stu

Overview: The contributors to this collection examine the progress and impact of the ‘new poverty strategies‘ which have governed the policies of development agencies over the past decade. While in some areas progress has been impressive, in others it has been hampered by persisting inequalities, civil conflict, institutional gaps and turbulence in the international financial system. In light of this, The New Poverty Strategies proposes a range of new policies and donor initiatives designed to achieve greater success in poverty reduction in the new century.978-0-230-37115-6

Overview: Studies the public defense death penalty attorneys in the US through 25 highly unique interviews.Provides an in-depth insight into the lives of those who decided to become death penalty attorneys.Spea.This book examines the lived experienes of death penalty defense lawyers and how they created a legal culture of resistance to the death penalty. It argues that an important social component of death penalty abolition in the state of Colorado was due to the efforts of capital defense attorneys. Specifically, it explores how the death penalty defense lawyers created and embraced a legal

Overview: The main goal of this work is to revisit the proof of the global stability of Minkowski space by D. Christodoulou and S. Klainerman, [Ch-KI]. We provide a new self-contained proof of the main part of that result, which concerns the full solution of the radiation problem in vacuum, for arbitrary asymptotically flat initial data sets. This can also be interpreted as a proof of the global stability of the external region of Schwarzschild spacetime. The proof, which is a significant modification of the arguments in [Ch-Kl], is based on a double null foliation of spacetime instead of the

Overview: This provocative analysis of American historiography argues that when scholars use modern racial language to articulate past histories of race and society, they collapse different historical signs of skin color into a transhistorical and essentialist notion of race that implicates their work in the very racial categories they seek to transcend.978-1-137-43863-8

Overview: Tables of Spectral Lines of Neutral and Ionized Atoms was first published in Moscow in 1966. All misprints and errors that have come to our attention have been corrected, and additions based on journal articles have been made for the Plenum Press edition. In particular, additions have been made in the tables for Li (4], C I [1], N I (1], N IV [12], and N V [14]. Such highly important spectra as those of N IV, NV, 0 IV, 0 V, and 0 VI in the visible and partially in the ultraviolet regions have, until recently, re­ ceived almost no attention in the laboratory. The tables of these spect

Overview: Examines recent trends in the management of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorders in immigrants.Explains how cultural factors can impact on diagnosis and treatment.Stresses the importance of cros.This book provides an overview of recent trends in the management of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorders that may ensue from distressing experiences associated with the process of migration. Although the symptoms induced by trauma are common to all cultures, their specific meaning and the strategies used to deal with them may be culture-specific. Consequently, cultural factors ca
