Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Die sich rasch wandelnde Lehre in der studentischen Ausbildung machte es erforderlich, das K- zept der ersten Auflage gründlich zu überdenken. Die Texte der ersten Auflage wurden von Wissen, welches sich eher an Facharztanwärter richtete, befreit und inhaltlich überarbeitet und damit auf ein studentisches Publikum ausgerichtet. Zusätzliche Kapitel sprechen die wichtigen Notfälle, die Infektionen in der Schwangerschaft und gerade auch die Leitsymptome an, die in keinem Stud- tenlehrbuch fehlen dürfen. Gerade die Leitsymptome als auch das Fallquiz, welches das diagn- tische Denken vom Leitsymptom zur Diagnose bis hin zur daraus folgenden Therapie schulen soll, spiegeln den problemorientierten Lehransatz, welcher mittlerweile in den meisten Universitäten in Deutschland nach Einführung der jetzt gültigen Approbationsordnung Einzug gefunden hat, wider . Natürlich dient das Buch auch in besonderem Maße den Kolleginnen und Kollegen in der Weiterbildung sehr gut als Unterstützung, basiert es doch auf den klassischen drei Säulen unseres Faches: 1. Reproduktionsmedizin und gynäkologische Endokrinologie 2. Pränatalmedizin und Geburtshilfe und 3. Onkologie und operative Gynäkologie. Die Didaktik wurde grundlegend erneuert. Übersichten, Merke- und Cave-Auszeichnungen und die jedem wichtigen Krankheitsbild folgenden Zusammenfassungen bilden einen Rahmen, über den sich dem Lernenden das Wissen leicht erschließen kann. Zusätzliche Praxistipps bieten nützliche H- weise zur praktischen Handhabung, die später am Patienten sehr nützlich sein können. Die bewährten Fallbeispiele in den Kapiteln geben einen ersten Einblick in den Alltag im Krankenhaus. Wir möchten allen Kolleginnen und Kollegen danken, die mit ihrer entsprechenden Fachk- petenz als Autoren dieentsprechenden Kapitel verfasst haben. 679 pp. Deutsch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Searching for Water in the Solar System, Thérèse Encrenaz takes the reader on a journey through the Universe in search of water. She begins by introducing the most well-known of molecule H2O, its physical and chemical characteristics and its cosmic Formation and abundance. She examines the methods by which the presence of water is detected, both within the solar system and beyond. One by one she visits a diversity of locations in the cosmos, from the nearest planets to the furthest galaxies, where water has been discovered. In the formation of the solar system, she explains how the water molecule played a major part, with the so-called 'ice frontier' determining the natures of the terrestrial and giant planets.The book explores the presence of water in the various bodies of the Solar System: in the giant planets, with their rings and systems of satellites, in comets, asteroids and in the terrestrial planets. By tracing the history of water in the atmospheres of Mars, Venus and the Earth, the author explains how small differences in temperatures, causing water to exist in different states on different planets - vapour on Venus, liquid on Earth and solid ice on Mars - have led to a great divergence in the evolutions of the three planets. The story of water on Mars, an aspect of great topical interest, offers an insight into the possibility (still only a theory) that there was once life on that planet. The book concludes by looking at the important role played by water in studies of habitable exoplanets. 204 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Contents Should we tell you the whole story Of course, there is an inevitable tension in trying to work like this. For example, in Chapter 16 we talk about referential integrity. There are - sentially six different flavors of referential integrity but Access only s- ports four of them (they are the most important ones however, so you aren't missing out on too much). The problem is this. Should we tell you about the other two If we do, as an Access user you have every right to be annoyed that we are telling you about a feature you can't use. On the other hand, the six different types that we describe are part of the re- tional world and this book is about that world - we are not trying to teach you how to use Access, we are simply using Access to illustrate the relational model. Ultimately we decided to risk your ire and to describe all of the features of the relational model as we see it, even if Access doesn't support all of them. One advantage of this approach is that if you need to use a different database engine you will almost certainly find the extra information useful. Incidentally, this is not meant to imply that Access is somehow lacking as a relational database engine. The reason we chose it for the first book is that it is such a good example of a relational database tool. 388 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -We may consider technology as the set of tools, both hardware and software, that help us improve our performance in di erent working (and playing) - cations; it includes all the man-made objects from paper to the latest audio book. Information technology helps to use, edit, share, and exchange kno- edge,intheformofdocuments-textual,acoustic,andpictorial-quicklyand e ciently. E. D. Hirsch, Jr. pointed out that literate people in every society and every culture share a body of knowledge that enables them to commu- cate with each other and make sense of the world around them. The kinds of things a literate person knows vary from society to society and from era to era, so there is no absolute de nition of literacy; the same holds for computer literacy. We may look at technology literacy from three di erent dimensions: capabilities, knowledge, and ways of thinking and acting. According to this scheme, such dimensions can be placed along a continuum - from low to high, limited to extensive, and poorly developed to well developed. In such a thr- dimensional(3D)space,arethedi erentproductsandgadgetsinoureveryday life, like the iPod, that are extensively developed, and have high-level ca- bilities but require little knowledge to make them work. Conversely, a CAD software package has low capabilities since it is a specialized application, and extensive knowledge is required to use it. These ways of thinking and a- ing must be well developed. There are di erent views on which computing platform will encompass others existing one. 162 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Service-oriented computing has become one of the predominant factors in current IT research and development. Web services seem to be the middleware solution of the future for highly interoperable distributed software solutions. In parallel, research on the Semantic Web provides the results required to exploit distributed machine-processable data. To combine these two research lines into industrial-strength applications, a number of research projects have been set up by organizations like W3C and the EU. Dieter Fensel and his coauthors deliver a profound introduction into one of the most promising approaches - the Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO). After a brief presentation of the underlying basic technologies and standards of the World Wide Web, the Semantic Web, and Web Services, they detail all the elements of WSMO from basic concepts to possible applications in e-commerce, e-government and e-banking, and they also describe its relation to other approaches like OWL-S or WSDL-S.While many of the related technologies and standards are still under development, this book already offers both a broad conceptual introduction and lots of pointers to future application scenarios for researchers in academia and industry as well as for developers of distributed Web applications. 204 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The theory of algebraic function fields over finite fields has its origins in number theory. However, after Goppa`s discovery of algebraic geometry codes around 1980, many applications of function fields were found in different areas of mathematics and information theory, such as coding theory, sphere packings and lattices, sequence design, and cryptography. The use of function fields often led to better results than those of classical approaches.This book presents survey articles on some of these new developments. Most of the material is directly related to the interaction between function fields and their various applications; in particular the structure and the number of rational places of function fields are of great significance. The topics focus on material which has not yet been presented in other books or survey articles. Wherever applications are pointed out, a special effort has been made to present some background concerning their use. 201 pp. Englisch.…
