Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by Kyoto University.Provides novel strategies for the construction of pyrrolocarbazole core structures.Explains the design and development of divergent synthesThis book explores efficient syntheses of indole alkaloids based on gold-catalyzed cascade cyclizations, presenting two strategies for total synthesis of these natural products based on gold-catalyzed reactions of conjugated diyne or ynamide. .The book first describes the total and formal synthesis of dictyodendrins A–F based on direct construction of the pyrrolo[2,3-c]carbazole core usi

Overview: Offers a brief and accessible intellectual history of tyranny, useful for reflection on the current political climate.Features historical analyses of tyranny from both well-known and lesser-known writThis Palgrave Pivot examines how prominent thinkers throughout history, from ancient Greece to sixteenth-century France, have perceived tyrants and tyranny. Ancient philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle were the first to build a vocabulary for tyrants and the forms of government they corrupted. Thirteenth century analyses of tyranny by Thomas Aquinas and John of Salisbury, revived fro

Overview: Provides the first overview of the Italian child study movement.Analyzes its theories, methods, and goals through the conceptual lens of children‘s symbolic value.Explores the intersection of the hist.This book investigates a forgotten chapter of history: the role of Italian sciences within the child study movement. Between the 1880s and the First World War, children became the focus of unprecedented professional and scientific interest in Europe and the United States. The bodies and psyches of children, their care and growth, their development, ‘normal‘ and ‘abnormal‘, intelligence,

Overview: Provides an introduction to VLSI testing and diagnosis, with a focus on delay testing and small-delay defects.Presents the most effective techniques for screening small-delay defects, such as long patThis book will introduce new techniques for detecting and diagnosing small-delay defects in integrated circuits. Although this sort of timing defect is commonly found in integrated circuits manufactured with nanometer technology, this will be the first book to introduce effective and scalable methodologies for screening and diagnosing small-delay defects, including important parameters s

Overview: Considers how the power of adaptations to decenter authority poses a radical challenge to the idea of originality.Challenges continuing assumptions about artistic originality, authorship, and the indeThe essays in this volume seek to expose the scandals of adaptation. Some of them focus on specific adaptations that have been considered scandalous because they portray characters acting in ways that give scandal, because they are thought to betray the values enshrined in the texts they adapt, because their composition or reception raises scandalous possibilities those adapted texts had

Overview: Almost every effort in the care of patients with heart disease begins with some description of disordered physiologic performance or mor­ phologic anatomy. Since the early work of Edler and Hertz in 1954, echocardiographic methods have grown in importance and reliability for the diagnosis of many cardiac disorders. The placement of a maneuverable transducer on the tip of a modified endoscope is the result of relatively recent technologic advances. The transesophageal approach is now a reality for obtaining new information from ultra-sonic images of a beating human heart. Since images

Overview: Despite the fact that the average woman spends one third of her life after the menopause, medical research has been devoted almost entirely to the repro­ ductive period of her life span. This is perhaps not surprising in our youth­ orientated society and yet there is increasing evidence that properly applied and supervised hormonal therapy could alleviate many of the severe physical symptoms which are associated with the ovarian menopause and that in the long term other aspects of physical deterioration could be modified. This lack of scientific research has made it difficult to asse

Overview: " ... as soon as one has traversed the greater part of the wild sea, one comes upon such a huge quantity of ice that nowhere in the whole world has the like been known." "This ice is of a wonderful nature. It lies at times quite still, as one would expect, with openings or large fjords in it; but sometimes its movement is so strong and rapid as to equal that of a ship running before the wind, and it drifts against the wind as often as with it." Kongespeilet - 1250 A.D. ("The Mirror of Kings") Modern societies require increasing amounts influence on the water mass and on the resulting

Overview: Many books have been written on the history of quantum mechanics. So far as I am aware, however, this is the first to incorporate the results of the large amount of detailed scholarly research completed by professional historians of physics over the past fifteen years. It is also, I believe, the first since Max Jammer‘s pioneering study of fifteen years ago to attempt a genuine ‘history‘ as opposed to a mere technical report or popular or semi-popular account. My aims in making this attempt have been to satisfy the needs of historians of science and, more especially, to promote a ser

Overview: Analyzes the interrelationships of national policy, teacher effectiveness and student outcomes.Discusses differences in the magnitude of educational inequality within and across countries.Fuels contemThis open access book examines the interrelationship of national policy, teacher effectiveness, and student outcomes with a specific emphasis on educational equity.
