![]() Attention in Early Development: Themes and Variations By Holly Alliger Ruff, Mary Klevjord Rothbart 2001 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 0195136322 | PDF | 19 MB This book provides both a review of the literature and a theoretical framework for understanding the development of visual attention from infancy through early childhood. Taking a functional approach to the topic, the authors discuss the development of the selective and state-related aspects of attention, as well as the emergence of higher-level controls. They also explore the individual differences in these facets of attention, and consider the possible origins of early deficits in attention, which has obvious implications for children with developmental disorders such as attention-deficit hyperactive disorder. These findings will be invaluable to developmental, cognitive, and clinical psychologists and psychiatrists. ![]() Attention and Alienation: The International Political Economy of Information and Communication Technologies by Aarushi Bhandari English | 2025 | ISBN: 0231208200 | 232 Pages | True ePUB | 0.87 MB ![]() Attacks on Artificial Intelligence: The New Facets of Cyber Ecospace (AAP Research Notes on Optimization and Decision Making Theories) by Kukatlapalli Pradeep Kumar, Boppuru Rudra Prathap, Vinay Jha Pillai English | September 22, 2025 | ISBN: 1774916223 | 270 pages | MOBI | 17 Mb Cyber attacks, both on national infrastructures and private companies, have ramped up exponentially in recent years. AI tools and algorithms can help detect and fend off cyber threats, but they can also be used by hackers in their cyber attacks. Defensive measures to address cyber attacks are not sufficient for artificial intelligence-based architectures, which present a new range of challenges. This new volume takes these concerns into consideration and examines recent developments and issues in attacks that target AI based systems and cyber infrastructures while also presenting research on using AI technologies to prevent attacks. ![]() Atrocities and International Accountability: Beyond Transitional Justice By United Nations University 2008 | 312 Pages | ISBN: 928081141X | PDF | 2 MB Rebuilding societies where conflict has occurred is rarely a simple process; but where conflict has been accompanied by gross and systematic violations of human rights, the procedure becomes fraught with controversy. This volume brings together eminent scholars and practitioners with direct experience of some of the most challenging contemporary cases of international justice, and illustrates that justice and accountability remain complex ideals. ![]() Atrial Septal Defect - A Medical Dictionary, Bibliography, and Annotated Research Guide to Internet References By ICON Health Publications 2004 | 132 Pages | ISBN: 049700111X | PDF | 2 MB This is a 3-in-1 reference book.

Hawkshaw English | December 27, 2024 | ISBN: 3031718240 | 97 pages | PDF | 43 Mb This atlas provides more than 400 images and video-recordings that describe in detail the step-by-step of the surgical techniques in-office blue laser surgery for benign and pre-malignant diseases of the larynx. It is the first atlas that compiles such a large number of cases, more than 50, and displays pre, intra, and post-operative images. The last two decades witnessed marked advances in technology including the development of the flexible endoscope with a working channel as well as the glass fibers for delivery of lasers. These advances often spared the patient the risk of general anesthesia and the morbidities of suspension microlaryngoscopy. The evolution in laryngology practice toward office-based surgery has broadened the use of the blue laser in the office with relatively good patient tolerance and surgical outcomes. ![]() Mingtang Lei, "Atlas of Karst Collapses " English | ISBN: 3030929116 | 2022 | 160 pages | MOBI | 19 MB This book comprehensively documents the various types of karst collapse and related conceptual site models, before discussing these collapses in terms of their impacts on engineering and the environment. Featuring over 200 real-world photos to illustrate the variety of karst collapses and their consequences, the book also provides specific methods and techniques to prevent, investigate, monitor and remediate these collapses. Decades of experience with these collapses make it clear that addressing the related hazards requires a multi-disciplinary approach that integrates geomorphology, engineering geology, hydrology, hydrogeology, biology, geophysics, geochemistry, and risk assessment. ![]() Mingtang Lei, "Atlas of Karst Collapses " English | ISBN: 3030929116 | 2022 | 160 pages | AZW3 | 20 MB This book comprehensively documents the various types of karst collapse and related conceptual site models, before discussing these collapses in terms of their impacts on engineering and the environment.
