Overview: This series in Computers and Medicine had its origins when I met Jerry Stone of Springer-Verlag at a SCAMC meeting in 1982. We determined that there was a need for good collections of papers that would help disseminate the results of research and application in this field. I had already decided to do what is now Information Systems for Patient Care, and Jerry contributed the idea of making it part of a series. In 1984 the first book was published, and-thanks to Jerry‘s efforts - Computers and Medicine was underway. Since that time, there have been many changes. Sadly, Jerry died at a

Overview: Provides new ideas and methods for how to deal with rival historical narratives in the classroom.Examines the relationship between history as presented in textbooks, and the historical memories of teaThis book presents a survey of approaches to dealing with ‘rival histories’ in the classroom, arguing that approaching this problem requires great sensitivity to differing national, educational and narrative contexts. Contested narratives and disputed histories have long been an important issue in history-teaching all over the world, and have even been described as the ‘history’ or ‘cult

Overview: ?Introduces readers to geometric modeling required to optimize dryer production capacity and energy efficiency.Outlines how primary drying variables (such as moisture content and specific gravity) impThis book stands as a manual and ready reference for the range of professionals involved in industrial drying. It addresses problems connected with most industrial drying systems, too often designed by those with limited formal engineering training in an environment of minimal regulatory oversight. The author explains how many existing drying systems are dangerous and pose fire hazards,

Overview: Der Band liefert eine Bestandsaufnahme, inwieweit der Islam in der Zivilgesellschaft Deutschlands verankert ist und setzt sich mit den entsprechenden verfassungsrechtlichen, bildungspolitischen und gesellschaftlichen Konsequenzen auseinander.?Durch die Migration bildet der Islam in Deutschland heute neben dem Protestantismus und dem Katholizismus die dritte religi?se Kraft. Die Gesellschaft hat auf diese Entwicklung bislang kaum reagiert. Der Band liefert nun eine Bestandsaufnahme und zieht die entsprechenden gesellschaftlichen Folgerungen: Im Rahmen der Zivilgesellschaft ist zu über

Overview: Presents a unified treatment of the thermomechanics of continua.Provides an opportunity to view distinct topics in a broader, interconnected context.Particular emphasis is given to the theory of const.The primary aim of this book is to present a unified treatment of the thermomechanics of continua using the axiomatic approach typical of rational mechanics. While many books on continuum mechanics focus on specific types of continuous bodies, such as deformable solid bodies or fluids, this book adopts a general perspective. It presents the mathematical structure of balance laws and con

Overview: Over seven chapters the book shows how international communication has been shaped by the structure of international political power and how these means of global communication have in turn been strategic tools for the exercise of international political power. There are separate chapters on global news flows, the international trade in cultural products (films, books, advertising, recorded music, periodicals and books), and government propaganda activities. The politics of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and the World Intellectual Pr

Overview: The Human Genome Project, an endeavor to map and sequence the entire human genome, has been in existence for almost seven years. One result of this effort has been the development of increasingly detailed genetic and physical maps spanning large regions of virtually every chromosome. Paralleling this has been the increasingly high resolution mapping of many &wnetic diseases. Together, these developments have facilitated the isolation of specific disease genes and are now motivating the construction of comprehensive transcriptional maps. This latter endeavor represents a new facet of

Overview: The industrial application of robots is growing steadily. This is reflected in the number of manufacturers now in- volved in the field of robotics. Thanks to pioneers such as Joseph Engelberger of Unimation Inc, industry has seen their rapid deployment in all areas of manufacturing. Manufacturers of robots and robotic equipment have increased their production levels and at the same time have made great efforts to improve and adapt their pro- ducts to allow them to be used for a wider range of appli- cations. The demand for ever more sophisticated robotic devices has made the choice o

Overview: This book is based upon my monograph Index Theory for Hamiltonian Systems with Applications published in 1993 in Chinese, and my notes for lectures and courses given at Nankai University, Brigham Young University, ICTP-Trieste, and the Institute of Mathematics of Academia Sinica during the last ten years. The aim of this book is twofold: (1) to give an introduction to the index theory for symplectic matrix paths and its iteration theory, which form a basis for the Morse theoretical study on Hamilto- nian systems, and to give applications of this theory to periodic boundary value prob

Overview: Indian soldiers served in France from 1914 to 1918. This book is a selection of their letters. By turns poignant, funny, and almost unbearably moving, these documents vividly evoke the world of the Western Front - as seen through ‘subaltern‘ Indian eyes. The letters also bear eloquent witness to the sepoys‘ often unsettling encounter with Europe, and with European culture. This book helps to map the imaginative landscape of South Asia‘s warrior-peasant communities.978-1-349-27283-9
