Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Internet is the ultimate amalgamation of the Information Age and the C- munication Age. It is a technology that took 40 years to become an overnight sensation, moving from the province of computer geeks to household utility in short order, once it was discovered. We have gone from thin…king a URL was a form of alien presence to viewing it as a natural footnote to bus advertising. Like the Internet itself, interest in computing, both local and distant, has grown exponentially. Now grandmothers send e-mails to their stockbrokers, meals are planned and the groceries purchased across the Web, and music videos can be previewed or concert tickets purchased-all with the help of the Internet. When our children come home from school, they are as likely to sign on to the Int- net as they are to turn on the television. The Internet is a universal commodity, for those with access.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Is there any justification for Heidegger's famous 'violence' against Kant's philosophy An independent assessment of the worth of Heidegger's argument is also made all the more pertinent by the evident misgivings Heidegger had about his interpretation of Kant. We must ask of Heidegger's interpreta…tion of Kant: 1) Is this good Kant and 2) Is this good Heidegger.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book challenges the conclusions that link entrepreneurship to lower employee compensation. This challenge is based on more recent theories of entrepreneurship, which view the role of small firms as existing in a dynamic context rather than a static framework. The evolutionary theory of entre…preneurship views the startup as an endogenous response to economic knowledge and suggests that new firms are a diverse manifestation of the search process. Evolutionary theory has been strikingly silent about how employee compensation might differ in an evolutionary framework compared to a static one. This is important because employee compensation is a key measure of economic performance, complementing other measures such as growth and survival. This book argues that the link between entrepreneurship and wages is different in an evolutionary context than in the traditional static analysis, suggesting that, particularly in knowledge-based industries, firms will pay relatively lower levels of employee compensation subsequent to startup. If the firm learns that it is viable, and survives and grows, levels of employee compensation will rapidly rise.This research provides compelling empirical evidence suggesting that the relationship between firm age and employee compensation is very different in an evolutionary context than in a static analysis. While this study confirms that new and small enterprises compensate employees at lower levels than do their larger counterparts subsequent to startup, over time, the levels of employee compensation not only increase, but also at a higher rate than in larger enterprises. While the traditional static analysis leads to the policy prescription that new firms and the low wages associated with them represent a drag on economic welfare, the evolutionary view suggests that, in the knowledge economy, they are an essential component of the search for steep trajectories, both in terms of growth and wages.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The meteoric rate at which the human genome is being sequenced has presented to the research community a vast array of newly discovered genes, which in tum has catalyzed an even more dramatic effort to decipher this voluminous data set into understanding how genes function both individually and i…n complex pathways that regulate the biochemistry of life. A compendium of gene expression data, enhanced by complete proteomic analysis, will enable investigators to probe into the complexities of the mechanisms of normal genetic and metabolic pathways and, subsequently, how disease occurs when they malfunction. The new science of toxicogenomics combines genomic, proteomic, and informatics technologies, and biological research can now foresee a time when there will be a full comprehension of the complex dynamic mechanisms of genetics, biochemistry, and physiology. The inherent power of toxicogenomics derives from an amalgamation of multiple scientific disciplines that were originally drawn together to facilitate sequencing the three billion bases that comprise the human genome. Traditionally, the science of toxicology has been founded upon empirical codification of dose-related effects. It has evolved to studies that are directed towards understanding the mechanisms by which individual agents cause their effects in humans. Due to technical limitations, this process has been relatively slow, since it has accomplished one chemical or one effect at a time.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The book consists of two Volumes. The first (the preceding volume) is devoted to the general nonlinear theory of the hierarchical dynamic oscillative-wave systems. This theory has been called the theory of hi- archical oscillations and waves. Here two aspects of the proposed theory are discussed.… The first aspects concern the fundamental nature and the basic c- cepts and ideas of a new hierarchical approach to studying hierarchical dynamic systems. A new hierarchical paradigm is proposed as a - sis of a new point of view of such types of systems. In turn, a set of hierarchical principles is formulated as the fundamental basis of this paradigm. Therein the self-resemblance (holographic) principle plays a key role here. An adequate mathematic description (factorization) of the proposed paradigm is carried out. The concepts of structural and dynamic (functional) operators are put into the basis of this descr- tion. Electrodynamics is chosen as a convenient basis for an obvious demonstration of some key points of the proposed new theory. The second aspect has a purely mathematical nature. It is related to the form of factorization (i.e., mathematical description) of hier- chical types of dynamic models, and discussion of the methods of their mathematical analysis. A set of the hierarchical asymptotic analytical- numerical methods is given as an evidence of the practical effectiveness of the proposed version of hierarchical theory.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Analysis of the neural tissue presents unique and peculiar technical problems encountered in everyday bench work. Numerous books dealing with cellular and molecular protocols for general use in cell biology are available, but few are specifically devoted exclusively to neurobiology. Moreover, the… 'cross-talk' between researchers with different backgrounds, i.e. histologists, cell and molecular biologists and physiologists, is still quite difficult, and very often one remains somehow 'confined' to his or her own specific field of expertise never daring to explore 'mysterious' lands unless having the support of a big laboratory beyond. The general idea beyond this project was to put together the contributions from a number of well- known neuroscientists to produce a book that offers a survey of the most updated techniques for the study of nerve cells. After a long time spent doing research in the neuroscience field, and having acquired a good technical background in certain specific fields of neurobiology we have realized how difficult is to be able to step into a different technology. This book endeavors to assist in that goal.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This work, Lung Cancer, Volume 2: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Methods and Reviews, in the Methods in Molecular Medicine series presents an overview of the current status of those methods useful in the diagnosis and tre- ment of lung cancer-both as it exists in the clinic and as it is being revolut…i- ized in the laboratory. The book is intended to serve as a resource for researchers wishing to increase their knowledge of current and cutting edge technologies, in order that their investigations into neoplasms of the lung may benefit from this enriched diversity of techniques and approaches. Owing to the complex nature of the disease and the variety of methods available to analyze and attack it, no volume attempting to define diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to lung cancer can ever be complete. The sheer number of investigators involved in lung cancer research guarantees that some aspect will be inadvertently excluded. However, I hope that the range of techniques included herein will serve to open up new avenues of investigation for both the novice and experienced researcher.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Lake Issyk-Kul is a closed lake located in the Tien Shan mountain belt of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan. It is the world's fifth deepest lake (668 m) and the second largest high altitude lake in the world (1607 m above sea level). The lake is affected by several environmental threats of both…anthropogenic and natural origin: decline of the lake level resulting in progressively increasing salinity, incomplete vertical water exchange, and risk of contamination by past and present industrial activity.Although the lake has been intensively studied, the information is only available in unpublished reports or local scientific journals. This book presents for the first time to an international audience the main physical, chemical, biological and geological characteristics of the lake, the fruits of many years of observations, complemented by recent results of international projects. Case studies of similar problems in other parts of the world are presented, together with ethical aspects of the environmental protection of the lake.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The objectives of this volume are to present an up-to-date (literature survey up to 2001) account of the biology of Artemia focusing particularly upon the major advances in knowledge and understanding achieved in the last fifteen or so years and emphasising the operational and functional linkage…between the biological phenomena described and the ability of this unusual animal to thrive in extreme environments. Artemia is a genus of anostracan crustaceans, popularly known as brine shrimps. These animals are inhabitants of saline environments which are too extreme for the many species which readily predate them if opportunity offers. They are, thus, effectively inhabitants of extreme (hypersaline) habitats, but at the same time are able to tolerate physiologically large changes in salinity, ionic composition, temperature and oxygen tension. Brine shrimp are gener ally thought of as tropical and subtropical, but are also found in regions where temperatures are very low for substantial periods such as Tibet, Siberia and the Atacama desert. They have, thus, great powers of adaptation and are of interest for this capacity alone. The earliest scientific reference to brine shrimp is in 1756, when Schlosser reported their existence in the saltpans of Lymington, England. These saltpans no longer exist and brine shrimp are not found in Britain today. Later, Linnaeus named the brine shrimp Cancer salinus and later still, Leach used the name Artemia salina. The strong effect which the salinity of the medium exerts on the morphological development of Artemia is now widely recognised.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, nichts liegt niilier, als der 66. Jahrestagung 2002 das Motto zu geben, das uns diese Zah len vorgeben: Wir betrachten einmal die Unfallchirurgie im Spiegel der Symmetrie. 'Symmetrie, ob man ihre Bedeutung weit oder eng fasst, ist eine Idee, vermoge derer de…r Mensch durch die Jahrtausende seiner Geschichte versucht hat, Ordnung, Schonheit und Vollkommenheit zu begreifen und zu schaffen.' schreibt Hermann Weyl, ein bedeutender deutscher Mathematiker 1955. Erst in genau in 770 Jahren wird sich wieder eine solche Gelegenheit ergeben, vorausgesetzt allerdings, dass die Deutsche Gesellschaft fUr Unfallchirurgie bis dahin regelmaBig ihre Jahrestagung abhalt, die dann im Jahre 2772 die 636. ware. Dass das eher unwahrscheinlich ist, wird unterstrichen durch die Tatsache, dass wir bereits im nachsten Jahr einen gemeinsamen (uberlappenden) Kongress mit den Orthopaden haben werden. Noch einmalliegt Ihnen der Abstractband in der Form vor, wie er die letzten Jahre ublich war. Dieser solI eher als ausfuhrliche Speisekarte fur die wissenschaftlichen Sit zungen und zum spateren Nachschlagen nutzlich sein. Daneben ist eine CD-Version verfugbar, die fur Suchende leichteren Zugang bieten wird. Ein Register ist in der Druckversion somit entbehrlich.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Asperger's Syndrome, often characterized as a form of 'high-functioning autism,' is a poorly defined and little-understood neurological disorder. The people who suffer from the condition are usually highly intelligent, and as often as not… capable of extraordinary feats of memory, calculation, and musicianship. In this wide-ranging report on Asperger's, Lawrence Osborne introduces us to those who suffer from the syndrome and to those who care for them as patients and as family. And, more importantly, he speculates on how, with our need to medicate and categorize every conceivable mental state, we are perhaps adding to their isolation, their sense of alienation from the 'normal.' -This is a book about the condition, and the culture surrounding Asperger's Syndrome as opposed to a guide about how to care for your child with Aspergers. -Examines American culture and the positive and negative perspectives on the condition. Some parents hope their child will be the next Glenn Gould or Bill Gates, others worry that their child is abnormal and overreact. 244 pp. Englisch.

Moving beyond a conventional action/reaction view of capitalism and its critics, the volume explores how criti…cal traditions and beliefs have helped to shape capitalism. Chapters follow diverse critiques in Britain and America and explore their Atlantic and imperial exchanges. The volume includes chapters on questions of law and property in the Victorian empire; traditions of land reform in nineteenth century America and Britain; the influence of American romanticism on British socialism; the role of Britain in American progressivism; American and British consumer protection; the evolution of trusteeship and ideas of cosmopolitan democracy; the 'third way' and narratives of globalization. The editors' introduction offers a critical historiographical survey and, by stepping beyond the dogmatic opposition between post-modernists and empiricists, provides a new research agenda for an integrated study of capitalism and its critics. 227 pp. Englisch.
