Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Themodernbillion-dollardrug-discoveryprocessstronglyreliesonbothhi- throughput synthesis and screening methods. Whereas the latter is based on molecular biological methods, the ef cient and reliable generation of c- pound collections often makes use of combinatorial chemistry. Discovered in the 1980s, this methodology was explored extensively in the 1990s by groups in academia and in industry. Without any doubt, combinatorial chemistry changed the whole drug-discovery process and found many applications in cropscience and the material sciences. However, since its implementation, solution- and solid-phase techniques have been competing with each other, and although many companies started theircombinatorialchemistryprogramwithsolid-phasetechniques,soluti- phase combinatorial methods have taken over and now account for appro- mately 25% of all combinatorial efforts. The syntheses of complex, non-polymeric structures, discovered in the 1960s by the late Bruce Merri eld, was largely ignored in the context of solid supports, mainly due to the fact that appropriate synthesis techniques were not available. Since solid-phase chemical methodology strongly differs from traditional solution-phase chemistry, two chapters deal with this topic. The Bräse group (Jung, Wiehn, Bräse) gives an overview of multifunctional linkers, which can beusedforthegenerationofdiversity-orientedcollections,simplybycleavage fromresins. Still in its infancy, solid-phase reactions employ simple amide chemistry in most cases due to their high-yielding, reliable protocols. Ljungdahl, Br- eld, and Kann address solid-phase organometallic chemistry, which is now one ofthe great challenges in reliable solid-phase organicsynthesis. 376 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Topological K-theory is one of the most important invariants for noncommutative algebras equipped with a suitable topology or bornology. Bott periodicity, homotopy invariance, and various long exact sequences distinguish it from algebraic K-theory.We describe a bivariant K-theory for bornological algebras, which provides a vast generalization of topological K-theory. In addition, we discuss other approaches to bivariant K-theories for operator algebras. As applications, we study K-theory of crossed products, the Baum-Connes assembly map, twisted K-theory with some of its applications, and some variants of the Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem. 262 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -These historical narratives of scientific behavior reveal the often irrational way scientists arrive at and assess their theories. There are stories of Einstein's stubbornness leading him to reject a correct interpretation of an experiment and miss an important deduction from his own theory, and Newton missing the important deduction from one of his most celebrated discoveries. This enlightening book clearly demonstrates that the greatest minds throughout history arrived at their famous scientific theories in very unorganized ways and they often did not fully grasp the significance and implications of their own work. 228 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -During medical training there are certain tasks that are not taught at medical school nor in the common reference books. There are some skills that medical students are expected to learn by 'osmosis'. These skills are never officially taught or examined in medical school, butare, however, a fundamental part of being a safe, good and efficient doctor. This book includes 'golden rules' or important points to remember and case examples, both of which are given as displayed extracts.This book will help the junior doctor unlock their potential and improve their performance, cutting the time it takes to achieve certain medical objectives. It is meant to fill in the gaps where the medical school and clinical guides stop. It gives the reader the information needed to organise themselves so that they can hit the ground running. It is not intended as a clinical survival guide, but more a friendly hand to allow the reader to get ahead in medicine and how to keep on track and develop a career path. 120 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Eigenvectors of graph Laplacians have not, to date, been the subject of expository articles and thus they may seem a surprising topic for a book. The authors propose two motivations for this new LNM volume: (1) There are fascinating subtle differences between the properties of solutions of Schrödinger equations on manifolds on the one hand, and their discrete analogs on graphs. (2) 'Geometric' properties of (cost) functions defined on the vertex sets of graphs are of practical interest for heuristic optimization algorithms. The observation that the cost functions of quite a few of the well-studied combinatorial optimization problems are eigenvectors of associated graph Laplacians has prompted the investigation of such eigenvectors.The volume investigates the structure of eigenvectors and looks at the number of their sign graphs ('nodal domains'), Perron components, graphs with extremal properties with respect to eigenvectors. The Rayleigh quotient and rearrangement of graphs form the main methodology. 120 pp. Englisch.

Sherlock Holmes in 'The Adventure of Black Peter' The statistical analysis of multivariate data requires a variety of techniques thatareentirelydi erentfromtheanalysisofone-dimensionaldata.Thestudy of the joint distribution of many variables in high dimensions involves matrix techniques that are not part of standard curricula. The same is true for tra- formations and computer-intensive techniques, such as projection pursuit. The purpose of this book is to provide a set of exercises and solutions to help the student become familiar with the techniques necessary to analyze high-dimensional data. It is our belief that learning to apply multivariate statistics is like studying the elements of a criminological case. To become pro cient, students must not simply follow a standardized procedure, they must compose with creativity the parts of the puzzle in order to see the big picture. We therefore refer to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson citations as typical descriptors of the analysis. Puerile as such an exercise may seem, it sharpens the faculties of observation, and teaches one where to look and what to look for. 384 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book applies the concept of synchronization to security of global heterogeneous and hetero-standard systems by modeling the relationship of risk access spots (RAS) between advanced and developing economies network platforms. The proposed model is more effective in securing the electronic security gap between these economies with reference to real life applications, such as electronic fund transfer in electronic business. This process involves the identification of vulnerabilities on communication networks. This book also presents a model and simulation of an integrated approach to security and risk known as Service Server Transmission Model (SSTM). 220 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Spain Transformed addresses a major gap in the historiography of modern Spain: the late Franco dictatorship. Although Spain took the leap from an agricultural to an industrial economy and underwent a social and cultural revolution in the 1960s and early 1970s, this period has until now received scant attention from scholars. Yet these sweeping changes are indispensible to explaining the dictatorship's extraordinary longevity, the model transition to democracy following Franco's death in 1975. and the peace and prosperity enjoyed by Spain ever since. This wide-ranging collection, which embraces topics such as tourism, the emergence of civil society, and the changing complexion of the regime itself, offers a far-reaching reassessment of this watershed period in 20th century Spanish history by presenting a wealth of new material and ideas. The interdisciplinary and comparative approach of Spain Transformed will appeal to students and specialists alike of modern Spain in particular and Europe in general. An original and sweeping analysis of the hitherto neglected, yet pivotal, late Franco dictatorship in Spain that draws on extensive new research 265 pp. Englisch.
