Current Topics in Clinical Radiobiology of Tumors
The impact of basic science radiobiological research is now being recognized of significant importance in clinical radiation oncology. Observations made in the laboratory using animals as'well as tissue culture have led to a better biologic understanding of techniques for altered fractionation, techniques for measuring tumor cell proliferation, the possi bilities and limitations of methods for evaluation of nonrandomized clinical studies in deriving time dose relationships for human tumors as well as a better understanding of repair kinetics in mammalian cells, fractionation sensitivity and the major impact oftechnologies to improve local/regional control with the subsequent impact on survival. These findings have led to changes in treatment schedules and have led to further close cooperation among the radiation oncologists and radiation biologists. Well support research efforts in radiation biology have a major and significant impact on the clinical care of the cancer patient. Studies that originated in the laboratory are now finding their way into clinical practice resulting in better local and regional control and improved number of patients surviving without disease.

Routledge International Handbook of Ignorance Studies
Once treated as the absence of knowledge, ignorance today has become a highly influential topic in its own right, commanding growing attention across the natural and social sciences where a wide range of scholars have begun to explore the social life and political issues involved in the distribution and strategic use of not knowing. The field is growing fast and this handbook reflects this interdisciplinary field of study by drawing contributions from economics, sociology, history, philosophy, cultural studies, anthropology, feminist studies, and related fields in order to serve as a seminal guide to the political, legal and social uses of ignorance in social and political life.

Evidenzbasierte Jurisprudenz
English summary: How do jurists obtain knowledge over the living environment which they regulate? Experience is an important source of knowledge, but the complex, connected information of society also increasingly requires an empirical study of law, and yet, the methods of empirical investigation are not so easy to manage and their results are not as easy to interpret as one might wish. For this reason, Hanjo Hamann discusses the principles of quantitative-empirical study and connects the critical reflection of empirical cognitive possibilities with specific epistemological interests of jurisprudence. What emerges from this method is a pragmatic theory of reception, which according to the ex...
Wissenschaftsjournalismus
Wissenschaftsthemen sind oft schwierig – für den Konsumenten wie für den Journalisten. Zwischen verständnislosen Chefs und Fachidioten, ahnungslosen Laien und sensationshungriger Konkurrenz aus anderen Ressorts hat der Wissenschaftsjournalismus eine Sonderstellung. Er berührt alle Lebensbereiche und wird doch als Nische wahrgenommen. Dieses Buch lehrt den professionellen Umgang mit der Wissenschaft: Wie man komplexe Zusammenhänge erklärt, wie eine Quelle, wie Zahlen einzuordnen sind. Wen interviewt man und wie kommt man an die Informationen, die man braucht, um einen Artikel zu schreiben oder einen Beitrag zu produzieren? Anschauliche Beispiele zeigen, wie wissenschaftliche Veröffen...
Herausforderungen der Wirtschaftspolitik
In unserer Zeit der Umbrüche ein nützliches Buch: Diese Umbrüche wurden ausgelöst, weil wieder einmal in unserer Geschichte wissenschaftliche und technologische Entwicklungen den natürlichen und gesellschaftlichen Verhältnissen so stürmisch vorauseilen, dass nicht nur viele Menschen, sondern auch Staaten und die Natur außer Atem geraten. Das hier vorliegende Buch fordert uns dazu auf, die eingefahrenen Denkpfade der Einzelwissenschaften für wenige Stunden zu verlassen und uns wieder bewusst zu werden, dass Alles mit Allem zusammenhängt. Der Autor lädt uns ein zu einer Weltreise, die vor unserer Haustür beginnt und dort wieder endet. Wie sieht es bei uns und in der Welt aus? Bei Demografie, Bildung, Arbeit, und Migration, die die Wirtschaft beeinflussen? Wie sind die Staaten in der Welt verfasst, wie werden sie regiert, droht ein Rückfall in die Welt der Konfrontationen, gar ein Ende der Demokratien? Der Autor macht uns auf dieser Reise Mut, die fälligen Veränderungen mit zu gestalten und liefert uns beunruhigt, also klüger, vor unserer Haustür wieder ab.
Evolution of Radiation Oncology at Massachusetts General Hospital
The Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) has a history of excellence and is internationally recognized as a world class medical center, providing quality medical care, advancing medicine through clinical and laboratory research and facilitating the education of exceptional health care professionals. The Massachusetts General Hospital Radiation Oncology Department, staff, residents and fellows, past and present, concur that MGH stands for Man’s Greatest Hospital. This decidedly immodest assessment is widely viewed amongst this group as being manifestly true, and that perception is clearly reflected in a marvelous esprit de corp. Such an unequivocally positive attitude is solidly based on th...
