Overview: "I‘m like a whirling leaf in the wind," said one of Dr. Lena Nilsson SchOnnesson‘ s patients, and another "I‘m in the claws of HIV." Their voices and those of other HIV-positive patients frame the humanistic and scholarly discussion in this impor- tant book. Dr. SchOnnesson, a Fulbright scholar at the HIV Center for Clinical and Behavioral Studies, Columbia University in 1995, has unusually extensive clinical experience in counseling HIV-positive gay men. Her work with 38 such patients treated between 1986 and 1995 is discussed in the pages that follow. Dr. SchOnnesson‘s longitudinal

Overview: Unique textbook which would be of extreme value for the practicing Urologist.Specifically addresses issues and complications with laparoscopic and robotic procedures.New approaches in the surgical manThere has been a huge rise in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in urology. This has led to an urgent need for a textbook specifically dedicated to the issues and complications arising from laparoscopic and robotic procedures.With contributions from recognized urologic experts in MIS, Complications of Laparoscopic and Robotic Urologic Surgery fills this need by familiarizing the modern ur

Overview: The problem of developing a systematic approach to the design of feed- back strategies capable of shaping the response of complicated dynamical control systems illustrates the integration of a wide variety of mathemat- ical disciplines typical of the modern theory of systems and control. As a concrete example, one may consider the control of fluid flow across an airfoil, for which recent experiments indicate the possibility of delaying the onset of turbulence by controlling viscosity through thermal actuators located on the airfoil. In general, there are two approaches to the con- tr

Overview: In 1897, Ehrlich suggested that natural preformed receptors from the surface of cells provided immunity to various chemical substances. Many years later, in 1940, Pauling proffered the concept that antibodies comprised a single poly- peptide chain and that each end of the protein could form an antigen-binding site. Burnet tried to explain the diversity of antibody specificity by hypothesizing that it was cell-derived. These hypotheses probably have led to as much or more experimentation and discussion than any other of the many conjectures set forth to explain immunity on a molecular
