The 100 Simple Secrets of Happy People: What Scientists Have Learned and How You Can Use It
The 100 Simple Secrets of Happy People: What Scientists Have Learned and How You Can Use It

Experts have spent their careers investigating what makes people happy. While their methods are sound and their conclusions valuable, the results often remain hidden in obscure scholarly journals. At last, social scientist and psychologist David Niven, Ph. D., has cut through the scientific gobbledygook. After examining over a thousand of the...

Common Statistical Methods for Clinical Research with SAS Examples, Third Edition

Aristotle, one of mankind’s greatest thinkers, rooted his basis of human understanding in the notion that universal phenomena can be explained through perception and rationalization. As such, Aristotle conjectured that a 10-pound object should fall through the air 10 times faster than a similar 1-pound object. This, and other intuitive...

System Modelling and Simulation
System Modelling and Simulation

Almost half a century has passed since System Analysis emerged as an independent field in Physical Sciences. Number of books and research papers has appeared in the literature and a need is felt to have a systematic one to the study of the subject. The basic techniques of Modeling and Simulation are now being taught in undergraduate...

The Design of Design: Essays from a Computer Scientist

Making Sense of Design

Effective design is at the heart of everything from software development to engineering to architecture. But what do we really know about the design process? What leads to effective, elegant designs? The Design of Design addresses these questions.

These new essays by Fred...

Old-Growth Forests: Function, Fate and Value (Ecological Studies)
Old-Growth Forests: Function, Fate and Value (Ecological Studies)

Many terms often used to describe old-growth forests imply that these forests are less vigorous, less productive and less stable than younger forests. But research in the last two decades has yielded results that challenge the view of old-growth forests being in decline. Given the importance of forests in battling climate change and the fact...

Ideas, Institutions, and Trade: The WTO and the Curious Role of EU Farm Policy in Trade Liberalization
Ideas, Institutions, and Trade: The WTO and the Curious Role of EU Farm Policy in Trade Liberalization

Agriculture has a small, and declining, importance in employment and income generation within the EU, but a political importance well beyond its economic impact. The EU's common agricultural policy (CAP) has often been the source of conflict between the EU and its trade partners within first the GATT, and then the WTO. In the Doha Round...

Printed Biomaterials: Novel Processing and Modeling Techniques for Medicine and Surgery (Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering)
Printed Biomaterials: Novel Processing and Modeling Techniques for Medicine and Surgery (Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering)

Recent studies have shown that novel processing and modeling techniques may be used to create patient-specific prostheses, artificial tissues, and other implants using data obtained from magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, or other imaging techniques. For example, customized prostheses may be fabricated that possess suitable...

Coherent Behavior in Neuronal Networks (Springer Series in Computational Neuroscience)
Coherent Behavior in Neuronal Networks (Springer Series in Computational Neuroscience)

Recent experimental research advances have led to increasingly detailed descriptions of how networks of interacting neurons process information. With these developments, it has become clear that dynamic network behaviors underlie information processing, and that the observed activity patterns cannot be fully explained by simple concepts such as...
