Księga jubileuszowa powstała dla uczczenia działalności naukowej oraz zawodowej dr. hab., prof. UW Mirosława Wyrzykowskiego, który całe swoje życie zawodowe poświęcił budowaniu i umacnianiu praworządności w Polsce, standardów demokratycznych oraz kulturze przestrzegania praw człowieka. Teksty zgromadzone w Księdze zgrupowano w cztery części: pierwsza nawiązuje do kwestii fundamentalnych o charakterze ustrojowym; druga podejmuje zagadnienia ustrojowego statusu sędziów oraz ich niezależności i niezawisłości, szczególnie w warunkach antyustrojowej presji; trzecia przedstawia różne współczesne wyzwania dla ochrony praw i wolności jednostki; czwarta spogląda na polski kontekst kryzysu praworządności z perspektywy prawa Unii Europejskiej oraz aktywności organów i instytucji UE.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International IFIP-TC6 Networking Conference, NETWORKING 2009, held in Aachen, Germany, in May 2000.

Since the establishment of the WTO on 1 January 1995, the dispute settlement mechanism has arguably been the most active part of the Organization. In the first ten years up to 31 December 2004, a total of 324 consultation requests have been notified to the WTO. Dispute settlement practice has thus contributed to the evolution of the multilateral trading system even at times when political negotiations made little head way. Since late 1997, Members have engaged, under different mandates, in negotiations on improvements and clarifications to the dispute settlement mechanism. So far, none of these efforts have borne fruit and all the negotiating deadlines have lapsed without success. Currently, negotiations are continuing, however without any specific time limit. This book reviews the DSU reform negotiating process since 1998. It discusses the proposals that Members have submitted under the Doha mandated review in 2002 and 2003, w
Introducing the representation theory of groups and finite dimensional algebras, first studying basic non-commutative ring theory, this book covers the necessary background on elementary homological algebra and representations of groups up to block theory. It further discusses vertices, defect groups, Green and Brauer correspondences and Clifford theory. Whenever possible the statements are presented in a general setting for more general algebras, such as symmetric finite dimensional algebras over a field. Then, abelian and derived categories are introduced in detail and are used to explain stable module categories, as well as derived categories and their main invariants and links between th...
Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering play significant roles in the treatment of currently intractable conditions, such as chronic heart failure, stroke, chronic osteoarthritis, and other maladies. Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering generally depend on the utilization of stem cells to treat patients but may also utilize mature cells that would not normally be considered as stem cells (e.g., skin). Stem cells (like mature cells) may be obtained from many sources in the body including bone marrow, cord blood, cord tissue, adipose tissue, etc. Although stem cells are often used in therapy immediately upon isolation, in many circumstances, the stem and progenitor cells will be harvested, processed and banked frozen until a later time. Biobanking is a convenient alternative to same-day therapeutic use, in that it allows for patient recovery (e.g., from liposuction), provides time to identify the best treatment options, and may allow for multiple interventions with additional patient inconvenience or risk.
A self-contained introduction is given to J. Rickard's Morita theory for derived module categories and its recent applications in representation theory of finite groups. In particular, Broué's conjecture is discussed, giving a structural explanation for relations between the p-modular character table of a finite group and that of its "p-local structure". The book is addressed to researchers or graduate students and can serve as material for a seminar. It surveys the current state of the field, and it also provides a "user's guide" to derived equivalences and tilting complexes. Results and proofs are presented in the generality needed for group theoretic applications.
These volumes provide biographical data on major and minor theatrical personnel who died between 1850 and 1990. Their data are derived from obituaries in The Era, The Stage, The Clipper, New York Dramatic Mirror, and Variety as well as The London Times, The New York Times, Boston Transcript, and the Los Angeles Times and is augmented by other diverse sources. Bryan's compilation is international in scope and broad in coverage. Thousands of entries and cross references detail the lives and careers of actors, directors, musical directors, designers, producers, playwrights, composers, screenwriters, scenarists, theatre and company managers, and agents connected with stage, screen, radio, television, vaudeville, circus, menagerie, and carnival.
