Enables readers to apply the fundamentals of differential calculus to solve real-life problems in engineering and the physical sciences
Introduction to Differential Calculus fully engages readers by presenting the fundamental theories and methods of differential calculus and then showcasing how the discussed concepts can be...
Since the first Handbook of Cell-Penetrating Peptides was prepared in 2001, the wealth of new information on the use of these peptides as transport systems has in fact served to confound the field. The constant internal change in the field of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) is due to recent research uncovering apparent ambiguities in...
The use of Bayesian methods for the analysis of data has grown substantially in areas as diverse as applied statistics, psychology, economics and medical science. Bayesian Methods for Categorical Data sets out to demystify modern Bayesian methods, making them accessible to students and researchers alike. Emphasizing the use of statistical...
The concept that cancer stem cells play an important role in malignant
tumors is gaining more and more support due to recent advances in
the field. The latest progress in this area is increasingly reported and
commented on in the lay press, documenting the high excitement and
hopes it generates.
Sensor networks differ from traditional networks in many aspects including their limited energy, memory space, and computational capability. These differentiators create unique security vulnerabilities.
Security in Sensor Networks covers all aspects of the subject, serving as an invaluable reference for researchers,...
Medical Education at St Bartholomew's Hospital traces the evolution of medical education at Barts from its foundation in 1123 to the college's merger with The London and Queen Mary & Westfield College in 1995. Drawing on the hospital's rich archives, it investigates how training was institutionalised and organised at Barts to...
As the number of forensic science and forensic chemistry degree programs has increased over the last few years, Forensic Chemistry was the first book to specifically address this rapidly growing field. It introduces the principal areas of study from the perspective of analytical chemistry, addressing the legal context in which forensic...
A tremendous growth in the utilization of multichannel detectors for infrared (IR)
spectroscopy has been observed over the past decade. In some cases, the incorporation
of multichannel detectors has significantly changed the practice of IR
spectroscopy; while in others, it has provided new opportunities for spectroscopic...
The fifth edition of Clinical Physiology of Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders has been largely rewritten to include the many important advances that have been made and the controversies that have arisen in the past six years. As with the previous four editions, this book attempts to integrate the...
In the past, most project management books have focused on managing one project, but in today’s increasingly busy and stressful world, it has become necessary to calmly and efficiently manage more than one project—often several projects—successfully at the same time. This learned skill is valuable not only for project...
Objective-C is today's fastest growing programming language, at least in part due to the popularity of Apple's Mac, iPhone and iPad. Beginning Objective-C is for you if you have some programming experience, but you're new to the Objective-C programming language and you want a modern—and fast—way forwards...
The interdisciplinary field of marine chemical ecology is an expanding and dynamic science. It is no surprise that the breadth of marine organisms studied expanded in concert with developments in underwater technology. With its up-to-date subject reviews by experts, Marine Chemical Ecology is the most current, comprehensive book on the...
