Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -We present here the English version of the Romanian first edition (V. Berinde: Ex plorare, investigare si descoperire in matematica, Editura Efemeride, Baia Mare, 2001). There are no major changes. Only a few printing errors were corrected. When transcribing Romanian names or denominations we did not use the diacrit ical marks. Our purpose is to provide an introduction to creative problem solving tech niques with particular emphasis on how to develop inventive skills in students. We present an array of 24 carefully selected themes that range over all the main chapters in elementary mathematics: arithmetic, algebra, geometry, analysis as well as applied mathematics. Main goal is to offer a systematic illustration of how to organize the natural transition from problem solving activity toward exploring, investigating and discovering new facts and results. The book is addressed mainly to students, young mathematicians, and teach ers, involved or/and actively working in mathematics competitions and training gifted people. It collects many valuable techniques for solving various classes of difficult problems and, simultaneously, offers a comprehensive introduction to cre ating new problems. The book should also be of interest to anybody who is in any way connected to mathematics or interested in the creative process and in mathematics as an art.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 272 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Current biological research demands the extensive use of sophisticatedmathematical methods and computer-aided analysis of experiments anddata. This highly interdisciplinary volume focuses on structural,dynamical and functional aspects of cellular systems and presentscorresponding experiments and mathematical models.The book may serve as an introduction for biologists, mathematicians andphysicists to key questions in cellular systems which can be studiedwith mathematical models. Recent model approaches are presented withapplications in cellular metabolism, intra- and intercellular signaling,cellular mechanics, network dynamics and pattern formation. In addition,applied issues such as tumor cell growth, dynamics of the immune systemand biotechnology are included. 451 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -During the past decade research into the pharmacology of cognition, particularly regarding learning and memory, has supported the concept that many potential neural targets exist for the development of cognitive-enhancing drugs. Whereas the main impetus for this research has been the ever growing population of individuals with dementing disorders such as Alzheimer`s disease, attention is also being focused on issues relating to cognitive impairment associated with 'normal' aging. This book is useful as a source of information for making informed decisions regarding the relative utility and attributes of the various neural targets that have been studied to date. 203 pp. Englisch.
