We all learn - in schools, factories, bars and streets. We gather, store, process and transmit information in society. Molecular systems involved in our senses and within our brains allow all this to happen and molecular systems allow living things of all kinds to handle information for the purpose of survival and growth. Nevertheless, the...
The increased incidence of pancreatic cancer in the Western world and its grave prognosis has resulted in an urgency for research in this area. Until now the available data on toxicology of the pancreas has been few and fragmentary, scattered throughout the literature. A benchmark volume, Toxicology of the Pancreas pulls together information in...
DESIGNING OBJECT ORIENTED software is difficult, but there are reoccurring patterns that have been documented [1]. These patterns specify how interacting classes and objects can combine to solve very general problems. It is up to the designer to recognize when a pattern can be employed and then to implement the domain specific classes and objects...
The first systematic summary of biophysical mass spectrometry techniques
Recent advances in mass spectrometry (MS) have pushed the frontiers of analytical chemistry into the biophysical laboratory. As a result, the biophysical community's acceptance of MS-based methods, used to study protein higher-order structure and dynamics,...
Scientific research on dengue has a long and rich history. The literature has been touched by famous names in medicine- Benjamin Rush, Walter Reed, and Albert Sabin, to name a very few- and has been fertile ground for medical historians . The advances made in those early investigations are all the more remarkable for the limited tools available...

With the growing awareness of drug-induced diseases in the last few decades, the trend of phar
maceutical research had shifted to drug targeting. The research community seems to be fascinated
with idea of delivering drugs at an optimal rate to their exact site of action. Once considered wishful
thinking, nanotechnology has made this...
This book presents the huge variety of current contributions of game theory to economics. The impressive contributions fall broadly into two categories. Some lay out in a jargon free manner a particular branch of the theory, the evolution of one of its concepts, or a problem, that runs through its development. Others are original pieces of work...
This Handbook explores the history of mathematics under a series of themes which raise new questions about what mathematics has been and what it has meant to practice it. It addresses questions of who creates mathematics, who uses it, and how. A broader understanding of mathematical practitioners naturally leads to a new appreciation of what...
Progress in photosynthesis research is strongly dependent on instrumentation. It is therefore not surprising
that the impressive advances that have been made in recent decades are paralleled by equally
impressive advances in sensitivity and sophistication of physical equipment and methods. This trend
started already shortly after...
This book aims to explain to the readers the basic idea of the general equilibrium theory, which forms the core of the current mainstream economics called neoclassical school. To understand this theory is absolutely necessary, either to study further or to criticize the contemporary economic theories. The author not only explains traditional...
