Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This textbook aims to fill the gap between those that offer atheoretical treatment without many applications and those that presentand apply formulas without appropriately deriving them. The balanceachieved will give readers a fundamental understanding of key financialideas and tools that form the basis for building realistic models,including those that may become proprietary. Numerous carefully chosenexamples and exercises reinforce the student's conceptual understandingand facility with applications. The exercises are divided intoconceptual, application-based, and theoretical problems, which probe thematerial deeper.The book is aimed toward advanced undergraduates and first-year graduatestudents who are new to finance or want a more rigorous treatment of themathematical models used within. While no background in finance isassumed, prerequisite math courses include multivariable calculus,probability, and linear algebra. The authors introduce additionalmathematical tools as needed. The entire textbook is appropriate for asingle year-long course on introductory mathematical finance. Theself-contained design of the text allows for instructor flexibility intopics courses and those focusing on financial derivatives. Moreover,the text is useful for mathematicians, physicists, and engineers whowant to learn finance via an approach that builds their financialintuition and is explicit about model building, as well as businessschool students who want a treatment of finance that is deeper but not overly theoretical. 504 pp. Englisch.

While no background in finance is assumed, prerequisite math courses include multivariable calculus, probability, and linear algebra. The authors introduce additional mathematical tools as needed. The entire textbook is appropriate for a single year-long course on introductory mathematical finance.

Neuware -This clinically focused and authoritative guide to managing End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients provides the essentials of hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and continuous therapies. Chapters cover the technical aspects of delivering dialysis therapy, clinical care of patients on dialysis and the evaluation and management of common complications of kidney failure in patients of dialysis - including anemia, bone disease and hypertension. Authored by worldwide leading experts in the field, this book is an invaluable resource for nephrologists and other healthcare professionals involved in dialysis treatment or caring for the ESRD patient.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 304 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Arguably biosonar is one of the 'eye-opening' discoveries about animal behavior and the auditory systems of echolocators are front and center in this story. Echolocation by bats has proven to be a virtual gold mine for colleagues studying neurobiology, while providing many rich examples of its impact on other areas of bats' lives. In this volume we briefly review the history of the topic (reminding readers of the 1995 Hearing by Bats). We use a chapter on new findings in the phylogeny of bats to put the information that follows in an evolutionary context.This includes an examination of the possible roles of Prestin and FoxP2 genes and various anatomical features affecting bat vocalizations. We introduce recent work on the role of noseleafs, ears, and other facial components on the focusing of sound and collection of echoes. 320 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -The latest in a series of books from the International Hypoxia Symposia, this volume spans reviews on key topics in hypoxia, and abstracts from poster and oral presentations. The biannual International Hypoxia Symposia are dedicated to hosting the best basic scientific and clinical minds to focus on the integrative and translational biology of hypoxia. Long before ¿translational medicine¿ was a catchphrase, the founders of the International Hypoxia Symposia brought together basic scientists, clinicians and physiologists to live, eat, ski, innovate and collaborate in the Canadian Rockies.This collection of reviews and abstracts is divided into six sections, each covering new and important work relevant to a broad range of researchers interested in how humans adjust to hypoxia, whether on the top of Mt. Everest or in the pulmonary or cardiology clinic at low altitude. The sections include:Epigenetic Variations in HypoxiaHigh Altitude AdaptationHypoxia and SleepHypoxia and the BrainMolecular Oxygen SensingPhysiological Responses to HypoxiaSpringer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 788 pp. Englisch.
