Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Graphs drawn on two-dimensional surfaces have always attracted researchers by their beauty and by the variety of difficult questions to which they give rise. The theory of such embedded graphs, which long seemed rather isolated, has witnessed the appearance of entirely unexpected new applications in recent decades, ranging from Galois theory to quantum gravity models, and has become a kind of a focus of a vast field of research. The book provides an accessible introduction to this new domain, including such topics as coverings of Riemann surfaces, the Galois group action on embedded graphs (Grothendieck's theory of 'dessins d'enfants'), the matrix integral method, moduli spaces of curves, the topology of meromorphic functions, and combinatorial aspects of Vassiliev's knot invariants and, in an appendix by Don Zagier, the use of finite group representation theory. The presentation is concrete throughout, with numerous figures, examples (including computer calculations) and exercises, and should appeal to both graduate students and researchers.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 472 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Thirteen years have passed since the seminal book on knapsack problems by Martello and Toth appeared. On this occasion a former colleague exclaimed back in 1990: 'How can you write 250 pages on the knapsack problem ' Indeed, the definition of the knapsack problem is easily understood even by a non-expert who will not suspect the presence of challenging research topics in this area at the first glance. However, in the last decade a large number of research publications contributed new results for the knapsack problem in all areas of interest such as exact algorithms, heuristics and approximation schemes. Moreover, the extension of the knapsack problem to higher dimensions both in the number of constraints and in the num ber of knapsacks, as well as the modification of the problem structure concerning the available item set and the objective function, leads to a number of interesting variations of practical relevance which were the subject of intensive research during the last few years. Hence, two years ago the idea arose to produce a new monograph covering not only the most recent developments of the standard knapsack problem, but also giving a comprehensive treatment of the whole knapsack family including the siblings such as the subset sum problem and the bounded and unbounded knapsack problem, and also more distant relatives such as multidimensional, multiple, multiple-choice and quadratic knapsack problems in dedicated chapters.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 572 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Durch Handlungen gestalten Menschen ihre soziale und materielle Umwelt. Ergotherapie unterstützt Menschen mit Störungen der Handlungsfähigkeit, die sie in der Bewältigung ihrer Alltagsanforderungen beeinträchtigen. Um diesem komplexen Behandlungsbereich gerecht zu werden, hat die Ergotherapie konzeptionelle Modelle entwickelt. Das hier vorgestellte Konzept basiert auf dem handlungstheoretischen Modell nach Prof. M. von Cranach. Es bietet Praxisanleitungen- zur Befunderfassung, Planung und Evaluation,- zu ergotherapeutischen Behandlungskonzepten undHintergrundwissen- über die angewandte Methodik,- über Forschung, Lehre und Qualitätssicherung.Interessant und wichtig für ErgotherapeutInnen aller Fachrichtungen: als Einführung in das Themenfeld und als Orientierungshilfe bei der ergotherapeutischen Problemlösung im praktischen Alltag; für ErgotherapeutInnen im Bereich Psychiatrie: mit Behandlungskonzpten und Basisinformationen zur psychischen Entwicklung und zu Beeinträchtigungen der Handlungsfähigkeit im Zusammenhang mit der jeweiligen Psychopathologie. 212 pp. Deutsch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Die Sterbemedizin ist ein emotionsgeladenes und tabubehaftetes Thema. Deren rechtliche Aufarbeitung hat gerade erst begonnen. Der behandelnde Arzt sieht sich einer Situation gegenüber, in der er die Verantwortung und das Irrtumsrisiko, und damit auch das strafrechtliche Risiko trägt. Die Beiträge dieses Buches beleuchten die Thematik umfassend aus unterschiedlicher Perspektive. Sie analysieren Fragen der Patientenautonomie aus Sicht des klinischen Alltags und der Rechtsdogmatik, setzen sich mit dem Kostendruck auseinander, erläutern die haftungsrechtlichen Konsequenzen und zeigen die Brisanz der Übernahme des Mandates 'Sterben' auf.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 212 pp. Deutsch.…
