Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Development thinking and development practice are in a state of flux - theory apparently offering little by way of solutions to the crisis of development. This book provides a fresh and critical survey of the different schools of development thought. A unique feature of this book is that b…oth orthodox and heterodox schools of development thinking are covered in an up to date and non-technical manner. The book will be of use to students, development theorists and practitioners.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Bioethics and the Fetus: Medical, Moral, and Legal Issues is the ninth volume in the Biomedical Ethics Reviews series of texts designed to review and update the literature on issues of central importance in bioethics today. All of the essays in this volume examine moral and/or legal problems invo…lving human fetal life; summaries of these essays may be found in the text's Introduction. Bioethics is, by its nature, interdisciplinary in character. Recog nizing this fact, the authors represented in the present volume have made every effort to minimize the use of technical jargon. At the same time, we believe the purpose of providing a review of the recent literature, as well as of advancing bioethical discussion, is well served by the pieces collected herein. We look forward to the next volume in our series, and very much hope the reader will also. James M. Humber Robert F. Almeder vii Contributors Andrea L.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The role of carcinogenic agents in the deveolopment of human cancers is now being defined using a variety of human cells as experi mental model systems. A workshop on 'neoplastic transformation in human cell systems in vitro: mechanisms of carcinogenesis' was held at the Georgetown University Med…ical Center, Washington, DC, on April 25-26, 1991. The aims of the workshop were to present the state-of-the art in the transformation of human cells in culture, as well as to provide insight into the molecular and cellular changes involved in the conver sion of normal cells to a neoplastic state of growth. The following topics were closely related to the theme of the workshops: 1. Derivation of in vitro model systems (epithelial, fibroblastic, and hematopoietic). 2. Factors modulating cellular transformation. 3. Usefulness of defined in vitro model systems for viral, chemical, and radiation carcinogenesis. 4. Multistep nature of human cell carcinogenesis. 5. Role of activated and suppressor oncogenes in neoplastic trans formation. The workshop was organized by J. S. Rhim and A. Dritschilo (cochairmen), G. Jay, J. little, M. McCormick, R Tennant, and R R Weischelbaum. There were 32 speakers, 30 poster presentations, and about 190 participants.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The world of Macbeth, with its absolutes of good and evil, seems very remote from the shifting perspectives of Antony and Cleopatra, or the psychological and political realities of Coriolanus. Yet all three plays share similar thematic concerns and preoccupations: the relation of power to legitim…ating authority, for instance, or of male and female roles in the imagination of (male) heroic endeavour. In this acclaimed study, Nicholas Grene shows how all nine plays written in Shakespeare's main tragic period display this combination of strikingly different milieu balanced by thematic interrelationships. Taking the English history play as his starting point, he argues that Shakespeare established two different modes of imagining: the one mythic and visionary, the other sceptical and analytic. In the tragic plays that followed, themes and situations are dramatised, alternately, in sacred and secular worlds. A chapter is devoted to each tragedy, but with a continuing awareness of companion plays: the analysis of Julius Caesar informing that of Hamlet, discussion of Troilus and Cressida counterpointed by the critique of Othello and the treatment of King Lear growing out from the limitations of Timon of Athens. The aim is to resist homogenising the plays but to recognise and explore the unique imaginative enterprise from which they arose.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Showa Era in Japan commenced in December 1926, when Emperor Showa ascended the Throne, and came to an end in January 1989, when His Majesty passed away, ushering in the new Heisei Era. The Showa Era was marked by drastic changes in the economy, society, and political and legal sys tems, which… brought about an ebb and flow in criminality and precipitated various criminal policies. From an economical, political, and criminological perspective, the Showa Era stands out as a remarkable period in Japanese his tory. The Research and Training Institute of the Ministry of Justice, which has annually published the White Paper on Crime in Japan since 1960, received Cabinet approval to introduce a special topic section, 'Criminal Policy in Sho wa' in the White Paper for 1989, which was published in October the same year. This White Paper is the first comprehensive publication that deals not only with the crime situation but also with the various activities of the criminal justice system, including the police, public prosecutors' offices, courts, correctional institutions, and probation and parole supervision organisations for 63 years.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The use oflasers has entered almost every facet of medicine and biology. Therefore, it is to be expected that the reviews contained in this vol urne will reflect this diversity. As dinical acceptance has grown with various diagnostic and therapeutic applications, so has the need for a more thorou…gh understanding of the theoretical background for each. This is especially true where a correlation is to be made between the theoretical background and the experimental data. It is only in this way that we can attain the optimal form of any therapy. The basic coupling ofenergy into biological tissue and its conversion into heat is characterized by many parameters. One ofthe most important is pulse duration. The review by Bimgruber in Chapter 6 shows how our knowledge ofthis parameter has been extended.The need for a more basic understanding of the interaction of electromagnetic energy with various kinds of materials has led to investigations on the nature of plasmas their stability and instability,and how theyexist. Docchio reviews the factors that cause them to occur at a specific locale and then to move away from that site. The availabilityofmany types ofoptical fibers has extended our ability to deliver laser energy from various types oflasers into almost anyselected location. This is particularly useful in medicine, where less invasive ap proaches to surgery and diagnosis are always helpful. However, as Rol and his colleagues explain, the power-handling capabilities ofoptical fibers limit many applications, particularly for short-duration, high-peak-power laser pulses.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The interplay between the spectral theory of Schr|dingeroperators and probabilistic considerations forms the maintheme of these notes, written for the non-specialist readerand intended to provide a brief and elementaryintroductiont…o this field. An attempt is made to show basic ideas instatu nascendi and to follow their evaluation from simplebeginnings through to more advanced results. The term'genetic' in the title refers to this proceedure. The authorconcentrates on 2 topics which, in the history of thesubject, have been of major conceptual importance - on theone hand the Laplacian is a random medium and the left endof its spectrum (leading to large deviation problems forBrownian motion and the link to thenotion of entropy) andon the other, Schr|dinger operators with general ergodicpotentials in one-dimensional space. Ideas and concepts areexplained in the simplest, possible setting and by means ofa few characteristic problems with heuristic argumentspreceding rigorous proofs. 136 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The approach to the Cauchy problem taken here by the authorsis based on theuse of Fourier integral operators with acomplex-valued phase function, which is a time functionchosen suitably according to the geometry of the multiplechar…acteristics. The correctness of the Cauchy problem inthe Gevrey classes for operators with hyperbolic principalpart is shown in the first part. In the second part, thecorrectness of the Cauchy problem for effectively hyperbolicoperators is proved with a precise estimate of the loss ofderivatives. This method can be applied to other (non)hyperbolic problems. The text is based on a course oflectures given for graduate students but will be of interestto researchers interested in hyperbolic partial differentialequations. In the latter part the reader is expected to befamiliar with some theory of pseudo-differential operators. 180 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book concerns the question of how the solution of asystem of ODE's varies when the differential equationvaries. The goal is to give nonzero asymptotic expansionsfor the solution in terms of a parameter expressing how somecoeff…icients go to infinity. A particular classof familiesof equations is considered, where the answer exhibits a newkind of behavior not seen in most work known until now. Thetechniques include Laplace transform and the method ofstationary phase, and a combinatorial technique forestimating the contributions of terms in an infinite seriesexpansion for the solution. Addressed primarily toresearchers inalgebraic geometry, ordinary differentialequations and complex analysis, the book will also be ofinterest to applied mathematicians working on asymptotics ofsingular perturbations and numerical solution of ODE's. 148 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The main aim of this monograph is to provide a framework forthe integrated design of object-oriented programs withalgebraic specification techniques. The design methodpursued relies fundamentally on the structuring of systemsbased…on the notion of data types. Depending on the level ofabstraction, data types are described in an object-orientedway by algebraic specifications or by machine-executableobject-oriented programs. The treatment involves two mainaspects. First, object-oriented programs have to be relatedby a notion of correctness that models the transition fromspecifications to program implementations. The authorpresents a notion of correctness which relies on the idea ofabstraction functions. Second, in order to obtain anintegrated design environment, a uniform structuring conceptfor object oriented programs and algebraic specificationshas to be provided. Inheritance, subtyping and clientshipare three central notions of object-oriented structuring.Theauthor uses them to develop the kernel of a typedobject- oriented programming language. The monographprovides the formal foundation for a unified framework ofalgebraic specifications and object-oriented programs. Amajor guideline is the development of a design methodsupporting the structured design and reuse of software inthis environment. 244 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In this book overlapping generations economies are analysedfrom a game theoretical point of view and the socialacceptability of consumption allocations is studied ininfinite horizon models of pure exchange economieswithagents with…finite lifetimes who behave cooperatively. Thecore of such economies and its relation with competitiveequilibria, both walrasian and monetary and the essentialcharacteristics of the overlapping generations model areexamined.The author defines the problem of trust in intertemporalconsumption allocations as a question of belonging or not tothe core of economy and provides a full characterization ofthe core allocations for n-goods pure exchange economieswith one agent per generation: a consumption allocationbelongs to the core if and only it is Pareto optimal andSequentially Individually Rational. From this it followsthat for one commodity economies no consumption allocationinvolving intertemporal transfers can belong to the core ofthe economy. In other words, no monetary equilibrium issocially viable. This result is no longer true for manygoods models. For that case it is demonstrated that thereexist bounds on the real value of equilibrium moneypurchases beyond which monetary equilibria are not sociallyviableand with many agents in every generation it is shownthat as the economy becomes large and monetary (as well asIOU) equilibria become eventually excluded from the core ofthe economy. These results provide an analytical rationalefor the fact that in most countries fiat money is legaltender. 220 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume is dedicated to Professor Ullrich Trendelenburg. It contains the proceedings of a symposium which was held in his honour on the occasion of his retirement and took place March 22-24, 1991 in Wiirzburg. Ullrich Trendelen…burg was the head of the Department of Pharmacology at Wiirzburg University from 1968 till the end of March 1991. He is famous internationally for his contributions to the physiology and pharmacology of the autonomic nervous system, and his impact on pharmacology in general throughout the world has been outstanding. The various phases of his life and his career have been delineated recently by Youdim and Riederer (Journal of Neural Transmission; Suppl. 32, 1990). The articles included in this volume reflect a considerable range of current research work dealing with various aspects of neuropharmacology, i. e. , the field of research Ullrich Trendelenburg has influenced most. One or more authors of each chapter are either former or present students and coworkers or close friends of Ullrich Trendelenburg. The first section is devoted to the synthesis and metabolism of catecholamines as well as to the mechanisms by which amine transmitters are removed from the extracellular fluid; three chapters deal with the two types of extraneuronal uptake of catecholamines. The second section concentrates on the release of catecholamines in the peripheral and the central nervous system, the regulation of transmitter release and the noradrenaline-ATP co-transmis sion. The third section deals with the pharmacology of various receptors, including agrenoceptors, adenosine, 5-HT and glutamate receptors. 236 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This monograph presents foundations for a constrainedlogic scheme treating constraints as a very general form ofrestricted quantifiers. The constraints - or quantifierrestrictions - are taken from a general constraint systemconsist…ing of constraint theory and a set of distinguishedconstraints.The book provides a calculus for this constrained logicbased on a generalization of Robinson's resolutionprinciple. Technically, the unification procedure of theresolution rule is replaced by suitable constraint-solvingmethods. The calculus is proven sound and complete for therefutation of sets of constrained clauses. Using a new andelegant generalization of the notion ofa ground instance,the proof technique is a straightforward adaptation of theclassical proof technique.The author demonstrates that the constrained logic schemecan be instantiated by well-known sorted logics orequational theories and also by extensions of predicatelogics with general equational constraints or conceptdescription languages. 132 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Fishes live in a world that is unfamiliar to us. Although we may make or even more advanced brief visits to this other world using a snorkel, scuba diving equipment, we can never become a part of it. Yet, an understanding of fish e…cology requires an awareness of the relationships between fishes and their environment. The purpose of this book is to introduce the ecology of fishes by describing the inter-relationships between fishes and the aquatic habitats they occupy. The book can be read in complementary ways. A sequential reading, chapter by chapter, covers the main themes of ecology, including habitat use, species interactions, migration, feeding, population dynamics and reproduction in relation to the major habitats occupied by fishes. An alternative reading selects a particular sort of habitat, such as rivers, and, by using the index and skipping from chapter to chapter, builds up a picture of the ecology of fishes living in that habitat. The text is written for advanced students. Its emphasis is on descriptive rather than quantitative ecology. It is assumed that the reader will be familiar with the basic biology of fishes, acquired from a text such as The Biology of Fishes (Bone and Marshall, 1982) also published in the Tertiary Level Biology series. I would like to thank Dr J. D. Fish and two anonymous reviewers who, within a tight time-schedule, tried to improve the text. Any mistakes and shortcomings are my contribution. 228 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Currently much research is being undertaken, within a wide range of scientific and engineering disciplines, on macroscopic phenomena associated with liquid boundaries. This volume contains articles which address the modelling of su…ch phenomena from a variety of viewpoints. These works serve to acquaint the reader with the range of macroscopic behaviour which can occur at liquid boundaries, to indicate various aproaches to relevant continuum descriptions and the difficulties of modelling non-equilibrium situations, to demonstrate applications of continuum models to the solution of practical problems, and to convey due appreciation of experimental aspects of the subject. The specific topics addressed are phenomenological approaches to fluid-flute interfaces and the physical interpretation of associated concepts and quantities, non-equilibrium thermodynamics and statistical physics of liquid-vapour interfaces, the physics of ice-water phase-change surfaces, and the prediction of static and dynamic contact angles, wetting and spreading. 296 pp. Englisch.

Stream encryption is apractically important means to this end. This monograph isdevoted to a new aspect of stream ciphers, namely thestabilit…y theory of stream ciphers, with the purpose ofdeveloping bounds on complexity which can form part of thebasis for a general theory of data security and ofstabilizing stream-cipher systems.The approach adopted in this monograph is new. The topic istreated by introducing measure indexes on the security ofstream ciphers, developing lower bounds on these indexes,and establishing connections among them. The treatmentinvolves the stability of boolean functions, the stabilityof linear complexity of key streams, the period stability ofkey streams, and the stability of source codes. Misleadingideas about stream ciphers are exposed and new viewpointspresented.The numerous measure indexes and bounds on them that areintroduced here, the approach based on spectrum techniques,andthe ten open problems presented will all be useful tothe reader concerned with analyzing and designing streamciphers for securing data. 204 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume presents the proceedings of an internationalworkshop on the processing of declarative knowledge. Theworkshop was organized and hosted by the German ResearchCenter for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) in cooperationwith th…e Association for Logic Programming (ALP) and theGesellschaft f}r Informatik (GI).Knowledge is often represented using definite clauses,rules, constraints, functions, conceptual graphs, andrelated formalisms. The workshop addressed such high-levelrepresentations and their efficient implementation requiredfor declarative knowledge bases. Many of the papers treatrepresentation methods, mainly concept languages, and manytreat implementation methods, such as transformationtechniques and WAM-like abstract machines. Several papersdescribe implemented knowledge-processing systems. Thecompetition between procedural and declarative paradigms wasdiscussed in a panel session, and position statements of thepanelists are included in the volume. 452 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume is the proceedings of the Second InternationalConference on Deductive and Object-Oriented Databases(DOOD). During the last decade, deductive andobject-oriented systems have received a great deal ofattention, but for the… most part these two fields wereevolving independently of each other. Today there is a largebody of work suggesting that the deductive andobject-oriented paradigms complement each other.The object-oriented paradigm is characterized by its view ofthe data, whereby information is grouped around objects withcomplex internal structure accessed via methods. Thedeclarative paradigm is centered around the idea that datamanipulation must be done through a declarative, logic-basedlanguage. It is hoped that these two aspects, broughttogether in one system, will provide an integrated frameworkfora new database technology.The DOOD conference brings together researchers anddevelopers in the fields of deductive and object-orienteddatabases to stimulate technical discussion and acceleratethe integration of the two technologies. This volumecontains 28 contributed papers (selected from 98submissions) and two invited papers by world-renownedresearchers. 604 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The last 30 years have seen a steady development in the range of ceramic materials with potential for high temperature engineering applications: in the 60s, self-bonded silicon carbide and reaction-bonded silicon nitride; in the 70s, impr…oved aluminas, sintered silicon carbide and silicon nitrides (including sialons); in the 80s, various toughened Zr0 materials, ceramic matrix composites reinforced with silicon 2 carbide continuous fibres or whiskers. Design methodologies were evolved in the 70s, incorporating the principles of fracture mechanics and the statistical variation and time dependence of strength. These have been used successfully to predict the engineering behaviour of ceramics in the lower range of temperature. In spite of the above, and the underlying thermodynamic arguments for operations at higher temperatures, there has been a disappointing uptake of these materials in industry for high temperature usc. Most of the successful applications are for low to moderate temperatures such as seals and bearings, and metal cutting and shaping. The reasons have been very well documented and include: - Poor predictability and reliability at high temperature. - High costs relative to competing materials. - Variable reproducibility of manufacturing processes. - Lack of sufficiently sensitive non-destructive techniques. With this as background, a Europhysics Industrial Workshop sponsored by the European Physical Society (EPS) was organised by the Netherlands Energy Research Foundation (ECN) and the Institute for Advanced Materials of the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the EC, at Petten, North Holland, in April 1990 to consider the status of thermomechanical applications of engineering ceramics. 356 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of the Technical Advisory Committee, in planning the c~:Dtent of this meeting, was to illustrate the range of separation processes in which the use of membranes was practical and effective at an industrial scale. As Professor Stra…thmann reveals, the market for process equipment built around membranes is now worth about $5x1(f annually, and it seemed important to review this technology, and to point the direction of future technical advances. All but the most critical reader should find some items of interest. The Committee would admit to not fulftlling all of thier aims, although those delegates who attended the meeting in Edinburgh judged it a success. In the event it provided representative examples of processes from the food and beverage industry, from water treatment, and from the chemical industry, of which the removal of alcohol from fermented beverages, shipboard desalination and solvent recovery are three. The major uses of charged membranes and sterile processes are not covered, nor 9 is the largest market, $1.2x10 annually, for artificial kidney dialysis. However, it is interesting to see artificial kidney now finding an alternative use as a reactor for the production of monoclonal antibodies. We are also reminded by Professor Michel of the importance and efficiency of natural membranes in the kidney under conditions where fouling is crucial to their performance and enhances their selectivity. 432 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -his volume of the series Lecture Notes in Medical Informatics contains the T proceedings of the Workshop on System Engineering in Medicine, which was held in Maastricht, The Netherlands, 16-18 March 1989. This workshop was sponsore…d by the EC under the framework of the Medical and Health Research Programme. The aim of the workshop was to assess whether there was sufficient support in the Medical Informatics community in the EC to establish a concerted action. This proceedings contain papers of the presentations given at the workshop. These presentations were centred around three themes: - Methods and Tools - Applications in the domains of chronic care and critical care - Evaluation of decision support systems The papers were prepared after the workshop and therefore we were able to include the relevant parts of the discussions which were related to the presentations. As a result of the discussions during the workshop, a proposal was prepared for the establishment of a concerted action, specifically addressing the development of guidelines for the evaluation of medical decision aids. This proposal was granted early 1990 under the same Medical and Health Research programme of the EC. Over 40 institutes are participating in this concerted action. It have been the outstanding presentations and the open discussions at the workshop that have been the starting point of this concerted action. The papers in this proceedings formed a starting point for the discussions in the meetings of the concerted action. 348 pp. Englisch.

Bayly has brought these two fields together admirably, with great intelligence, imagination and… originality. For this reason alone, I think all active structural geologists, whether in research or teaching, and particularly those concerned with theory, should read this book.'(Journal of Structural Geology) 276 pp. Englisch.
