Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Evidence-based Medicine (EBM) is feared to become a kind of cook-book medicine that has nothing to do with the traditional skills and ethics.This volume shows the contribution EBM makes and might make to medical practice and health policy. It describes as many viewpoints as possible with a focus on the ethical issues that are at stake in this process.It shows how EBM has developed from an internal medical issue to an instrument for health policy. It is the outcome of the European Project 'Ethical Issues of Evidence Based Practice in Medicine and Health Care' and gives insight into the ethical background of the debate on the role of EBM in various areas of medicine, including clinical practice, medical education, medical research, health policy and medical sociology.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 192 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Complexity science has been a source of new insight in physical and social systems and has demonstrated that unpredictability and surprise are fundamental aspects of the world around us. This book is the outcome of a discussion meeting of leading scholars and critical thinkers with expertise in complex systems sciences and leaders from a variety of organizations, sponsored by the Prigogine Center at The University of Texas at Austin and the Plexus Institute, to explore strategies for understanding uncertainty and surprise. Besides contributions to the conference, it includes a key digest by the editors as well as a commentary by the late nobel laureate Ilya Prigogine, 'Surprises in half of a century'. The book is intended for researchers and scientists in complexity science, as well as for a broad interdisciplinary audience of both practitioners and scholars. It will well serve those interested in the research issues and in the application of complexity science to physical and social systems.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 216 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Ultrasound is a technique particularly suited to the investigation of disorders in children. It is painless, safe and non-threatening. There are significant strengths and weaknesses of its use in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal disorders. This text describes the methods, findings and potential pitfalls of imaging where US is commonly used as the primary diagnostic method and where it is best as an adjunct to other imaging. The alternative imaging techniques including CT, MRI, scintigraphy, and plain radiography are described in detail where appropriate. The reader of this book should obtain a working knowledge of the potential advantages of US, whilst understanding when and where other forms of imaging are preferred. The authors have international reputations as researchers, clinicians, and teachers in their field.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 116 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This comprehensive description and discussion of photovoltaics (PV) is presented at a level that makes it accessible to the interested academic. Starting with an historical overview, the text outlines the relevance of photovoltaics today and in the future. Then follows an introduction to the physical background of solar cells and the most important materials and technologies, with particular emphasis placed on future developments and prospects. The book goes beyond technology by also describing the path from the cell to the module to the system, proceeding to important applications such as grid-connected and stand-alone systems. The composition and development of the markets and the role of PV in future energy systems are also considered. Finally, the discussion turns to the future structure of energy supplies, expected to comprise more distributed generation, and addresses synergies and competition from other carbon-free energy sourcesSpringer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 252 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Less than 20 years ago the eld of cannabis and the cannabinoids was still c- sidered a minor, somewhat quaint, area of research. A few groups were active in the eld, but it was already being viewed as stagnating. The chemistry of cannabis 9 9 was well known, -tetrahydrocannabinol ( -THC), identi ed in 1964, being the only major psychoactive constituent and cannabidiol, which is not psychoactive, possibly contributing to some of the effects. These cannabinoids and several s- thetic analogs had been thoroughly investigated for their pharmacological effects. Their mode of action was considered to be non-speci c. The reasons for this - sumption were both technical and conceptual. On the technical side, it had been shown that THC was active in both enantiomeric forms (though with a different level of potency) and this observation was incompatible with action on biological substrates¿a receptor, an enzyme, an ion channel¿which react with a single stereoisomer only. The conceptual problem related to THC activity. This had been pointed out by several highly regarded research groups that had shown that many of the effects seen with cannabinoids were related to those of biologically active lipophiles, and that many of the effects of THC, particularly chronic ones, were comparable to those seen with anaesthetics and solvents.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 784 pp. Englisch. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Das Buch 'Mathematik 1/Geschrieben für Physiker' zusammen mit dem im Frühjahr 2002 erschienenen Band 2 verfolgt eine neuartige Strategie für die mathematische Ausbildung der Physikstudenten im ersten Studienjahr. Radikale 'Rechtzeitigkeit' des Stoffes (Differentialgleichungen ab der zweiten Unterrichtswoche usw.) und physikbezogene neben rein mathematischen Übungsaufgaben gehen Hand in Hand mit der Vermittlung des tieferen mathematischen Verständnisses. Dieses ungewöhnliche Konzept erfordert viel erläuternden Text, wobei die aus anderen Lehrbüchern des Autors bekannte erklärende und überzeugende Art zu schreiben voll zum Einsatz kommt. Viele Abbildungen veranschaulichen die Begriffe und Zusammenhänge. Als vorlesungsbegleitendes Lehrbuch und auch zum Selbststudium bestens geeignet.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 584 pp. Deutsch.…
