![]() The Agile Imperative: Teams, Organizations and Society under Reconstruction? (Dynamics of Virtual Work) English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030739937 | 273 Pages | PDF EPUB | 10 MB ![]() Success in Academic Surgery: Clinical Trials by Timothy M. Pawlik English | PDF | 2014 | 197 Pages | ISBN : 1447146786 | 2.6 MB This book focuses on clinical trials, offering new materials which are necessary to address the rapid evolution of novel research methodologies in basic science and clinical/educational research and the changing environment for academic surgeons. ![]() Rogue States as Norm Entrepreneurs: Black Sheep or Sheep in Wolves' Clothing? by Carmen Wunderlich English | PDF | 2019 | 291 Pages | ISBN : 3030279898 | 3.9 MB This book investigates whether so-called rogue states - assumed antagonists of a Western-liberal world order - could also act as norm entrepreneurs by championing the genesis and evolution of global norms. The author explores this issue by analyzing the arms control policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran. A comparison with the prototypical norm entrepreneur Sweden and the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea - a notorious norm-breaker - reveals interesting insights for norm research: Apparently, norm entrepreneurship manifests itself in different degrees and phases of the norm life cycle. ![]() Passing the General Surgery Oral Board Exam, Second Edition by Marc A. Neff English | EPUB | 2014 | 168 Pages | ISBN : 1461476623 | 0.27 MB In its updated 2nd edition, this book covers concepts frequently addressed in the test, as well as unexpected problems and seemingly benign actions or inactions that could result in a missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis, and a consequent failure to pass the exam.
![]() Music in the Making of Modern Japan: Essays on Reception, Transformation and Cultural Flows (Pop Music, Culture and Identity) English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030738264 | 187 Pages | PDF EPUB | 4 MB ![]() Multiscale Models of Brain Disorders by Vassilis Cutsuridis English | PDF | 2019 | 223 Pages | ISBN : 3030188299 | 5.6 MB This book focuses on our current understanding of brain dynamics in various brain disorders (e.g. epilepsy, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease) and how the multi-scale, multi-level tools of computational neuroscience can enhance this understanding. ![]() Multiplicity and Interdisciplinarity: Essays in Honor of Eliano Pessa (Contemporary Systems Thinking) English | 2021 | ISBN: 303071876X | 261 Pages | PDF EPUB | 8 MB This book presents the human, cultural, and scientific contributions of professor Eliano Pessa, who recently passed away. His research interests and activities were varied, some of which included quantum physics, cognitive science and psychology, systems science, artificial intelligence, and alpinism. They were never disciplinary-separated issues, but rather some coherent dimensions of his interests in life. He lived and not only practiced interdisciplinarity and multiple dimensions; he considered it unacceptable to do only one thing in life. ![]() Multiplexed Imaging English | 2021 | ISBN: 1071615920 | 346 Pages | PDF | 12 MB This volume provides a collection of state-of-the-art approaches addressing key aspects of multiplexed imaging. Chapters focus on labeling and imaging techniques for multiplexed imaging, as well as on the application of these techniques for the study of cells and tissues. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. ![]() Modern Optimization with R English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030728188 | 264 Pages | PDF EPUB | 25 MB The goal of this book is to gather in a single work the most relevant concepts related in optimization methods, showing how such theories and methods can be addressed using the open source, multi-platform R tool. Modern optimization methods, also known as metaheuristics, are particularly useful for solving complex problems for which no specialized optimization algorithm has been developed. These methods often yield high quality solutions with a more reasonable use of computational resources (e.g. memory and processing effort). Examples of popular modern methods discussed in this book are: simulated annealing; tabu search; genetic algorithms; differential evolution; and particle swarm optimization. This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in computer science, information technology, and related areas, as well as data analysts interested in exploring modern optimization methods using R. ![]() Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery: Surgical Techniques and Disease Management by Frank Phillips English | EPUB | 2014 | 473 Pages | ISBN : 1461456738 | 18.7 MB Over the past decade, minimally invasive techniques have developed rapidly and are widely applied in the management of spine disorders. With the development of enabling technologies, including specifically designed spinal retractor systems, intraoperative imaging and navigation technologies, and real-time neural monitoring, minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) techniques are safe, effective and reproducible. Indeed, studies have confirmed the clinical and economic advantages of these procedures. |
