The Poison Paradox: Chemicals As Friends and Foes
The Poison Paradox: Chemicals As Friends and Foes
To appreciate the dangers and the risks from chemicals of all kinds it is necessary to understand how, when and why they are toxic. This falls within the field of toxicology and is what this book is all about.

I was encouraged to write the book by Dr John Emsley, who is well known for his popular science books on

Guide to Scientific Computing in C++ (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science)
Guide to Scientific Computing in C++ (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science)
Many books have been written on the C++ programming language, varying across a spectrum from the very practical to the very theoretical. This book certainly lies at the practical end of this spectrum, and has a particular focus for the practical treatment of this language: scientific computing.

Traditionally,

Synchronization of Parallel Programmes (Studies in computer science)
Synchronization of Parallel Programmes (Studies in computer science)

The use of modular and parallel programming languages, and the development of distributed architectures is having a profound influence on computer programming and systems design; hardware and performance can now conspire to produce much higher operating speeds than could previously be achieved through sequential processing. Executing...

Visual Complex Analysis
Visual Complex Analysis

This radical first course on complex analysis brings a beautiful and powerful subject to life by consistently using geometry (not calculation) as the means of explanation. Aimed at undergraduate students in mathematics, physics, and engineering, the book's intuitive explanations, lack of advanced prerequisites, and consciously...

Designing Management Information Systems
Designing Management Information Systems

Management information systems produce the information that managers use to make important strategic decisions. They formthe basis for management reports, both financial and non-financial, and as such they are a vital component of modern business management.

Islamic Leviathan: Islam and the Making of State Power (Religion and Global Politics)
Islamic Leviathan: Islam and the Making of State Power (Religion and Global Politics)
Over the course of the past two decades Islamism has exercised a growing influence on politics in Muslim countries from Morocco to Malaysia. In some instances this trend has led to regime change as in Iran and Sudan, but more often, it has ensconced Islamic norms, symbols, and rhetoric in the public sphere, and in the process,...
Formal Methods and Software Engineering: 6th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods
Formal Methods and Software Engineering: 6th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods
Formal engineering methods are changing the way that software systems are developed. With language and tool support, they are being used for automatic code generation, and for the automatic abstraction and checking of implementations. In the future, they will be used at every stage of development: requirements, specification,...
Modern Fortran Explained (Numerical Mathematics and Scientific Computation)
Modern Fortran Explained (Numerical Mathematics and Scientific Computation)
Fortran remains one of the principal languages used in the fields of scientific, numerical, and engineering programming, and a series of revisions to the standard defining successive versions of the language has progressively enhanced its power and kept it competitive with several generations of rivals.

California and the Fictions of Capital (Commonwealth Center Studies in the History of American Culture)
California and the Fictions of Capital (Commonwealth Center Studies in the History of American Culture)

Between the frequently recounted events of the Gold Rush and the Great Depression stretches a period of California history that is equally crucial but less often acknowledged. In his fresh, synthetic consideration of these in-between years, George L. Henderson points specifically to the take-off of California's rural juggernaut between...

Streptomyces in Nature and Medicine: The Antibiotic Makers
Streptomyces in Nature and Medicine: The Antibiotic Makers

This is an insiders account of 50 years of genetic studies of the soil-inhabiting microbes that produce most of the antibiotics used to treat infections, as well as anti-cancer, anti-parasitic and immunosuppressant drugs. The book begins by describing how these microbes the actinomycetes were discovered in the latter part of the nineteenth...

Health and the Good Society: Setting Healthcare Ethics in Social Context (Issues in Biomedical Ethics)
Health and the Good Society: Setting Healthcare Ethics in Social Context (Issues in Biomedical Ethics)
In this book I explore some of the implications of looking at healthcare ethics in social context. My starting point is the contention that clinical ethics cannot be insulated from questions in public-health ethics; and the book is in large part an elaboration and defence of that contention. My purpose is partly substantive and...
How Doctors Think: Clinical Judgment and the Practice of Medicine
How Doctors Think: Clinical Judgment and the Practice of Medicine

How Doctors Think defines the nature and importance of clinical judgment. Although physicians make use of science, this book argues that medicine is not itself a science but rather an interpretive practice that relies on clinical reasoning. A physician looks at the patient's history along with the presenting physical signs and...
