Platelets and Megakaryocytes: Volume 1: Functional Assays (Methods in Molecular Biology)
Platelets and Megakaryocytes: Volume 1: Functional Assays (Methods in Molecular Biology)

12 The average human body has in the order of 10 circulating platelets. They are crucial for hemostasis, and yet excessive platelet activation is a major cause of m- bidity and mortality in western societies. It is therefore not surprising that platelets have become one of the most extensively investigated biological cell types. We are,...

Several years ago, I attended a conference in Shanghai that brought together leading American and Chinese thinkers about games and learning. The event’s organizers asked us to share what we saw as best practices from our respective countries. The Chinese game designers proudly displayed games that included historically...
Towards a Compact Thin-Disk-Based Femtosecond XUV Source (Springer Theses)
Towards a Compact Thin-Disk-Based Femtosecond XUV Source (Springer Theses)

This thesis provides unique information on the Kerr-lens mode-locking (KLM) technique applied to a thin-disk laser. It describes in detail cavity geometry, the qualitative approach to KLM, and self-starting behavior in the regime of both negative and positive dispersion. Comprehensive comparative analysis of KLM and semiconductor saturable...

Concrete Fracture: A Multiscale Approach
Concrete Fracture: A Multiscale Approach

The study of fracture mechanics of concrete has developed in recent years to the point where it can be used for assessing the durability of concrete structures and for the development of new concrete materials. The last decade has seen a gradual shift of interest toward fracture studies at increasingly smaller sizes and scales....

Working Identity: Unconventional Strategies for Reinventing Your Career
Working Identity: Unconventional Strategies for Reinventing Your Career

Whether as a daydream or a spoken desire, nearly all of us have entertained the notion of reinventing ourselves. Feeling unfulfilled, burned out, or just plain unhappy with what we’re doing, we long to make that leap into the unknown. But we also hold on, white-knuckled, to the years of time and effort we’ve invested in our current...

Game Theory: A Critical Introduction
Game Theory: A Critical Introduction
As ever there are people and cats to thank. There is also on this occasion electronic mail. The first draft of this book took shape in various cafeterias in Florence during YV’s visit to Europe in 1992 and matured on beaches and in restaurants during SHH’s visit to Sydney in 1993. Since then the mail wires between Sydney and Norwich, or...
Multi-objective Management in Freight Logistics: Increasing Capacity, Service Level and Safety with Optimization Algorithms
Multi-objective Management in Freight Logistics: Increasing Capacity, Service Level and Safety with Optimization Algorithms
The complexity of modern supply chains requires decision makers in logistics to work with a set of efficient (Pareto optimal) solutions, mainly to catch different economic aspects for which one optimal solution related to a single objective function is not able to capture entirely. Motivated by this, and by recent changes in global markets and the...

Real Astronomy with Small Telescopes: Step-by-Step Activities for Discovery (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
Real Astronomy with Small Telescopes: Step-by-Step Activities for Discovery (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
From the reviews:

"The dozens of projects collected here are a combination of observations suitable for current research (such as classifying sun-spots or monitoring binary stars) and recreating classic experiments (such as determining the speed of light by timing Jupiter’s moons). … Besides ample nuggets for science projects,...
