First the concepts of [lambda]-presentable objects, locally [lambda]-presentable categories, and [lambda]-accessible categories are discussed in detail. The authors go on to prove that Freyd's essentially algebraic categories are precisely the locally presentable categories. In the final chapter they treat some advanced topics in model theory. For researchers in category theory, algebra, computer science, and model theory, this book will be a necessary purchase.
Introduction to concepts of category theory — categories, functors, natural transformations, the Yoneda lemma, limits and colimits, adjunctions, monads — revisits a broad range of mathematical examples from the categorical perspective. 2016 edition.
Předkládaná publikace pojednává o Americe, jak ji málokdo zná a o níž Voskovec a Werich pěli v jejich populárních relacích, a vznikla na základě celoživotního mravenčího výzkumu autora. Je zaměřena na historii emigrantů z historických Českých zemí a z Československa a časově pokrývá období od objevení Nového světa až dodnes. Zahrnuje nejen Spojené státy, ale i Kanadu a Latinskou Ameriku. Jednotlivé části pojednávají o pionýrech, o příchodu a usazování přistěhovalců v různých státech a krajích Ameriky a zakládání českých středisek a komunit, o veřejné a spolkové činnosti usedlíků a o různých typech přistěhovalců a jejich přínosu Americe. Ačkoliv počtem jich nebylo mnoho, v porovnání s ostatními etnickými skupinami, jejich přínos Americe byl fenomenální.
The national bestselling, breakthrough program for reversing and preventing aging, written by a leading medical specialist. This could be as close to a fountain of youth as mankind will ever come. In The Edge Effect, Dr. Eric Braverman reveals scientifically proven methods for preventing or reversing the debilitating effects of aging—including memory loss, weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and Alzheimers. A leading figure in brain-body health care, Dr. Braverman explains the vital importance of proper brain nourishment. He then shows how balancing the brain’s four essential neurotransmitters is the key to increased longevity and wellbeing. Proven effective for thousands of patients in Dr. Braverman’s practice, this groundbreaking approach will help anyone make the most of his or her life, radically reducing the risk of major illnesses such as cancer and heart disease, as well as minor ailments.
This textbook provides a comprehensive discussion of social work practice and its evidence-base. It strikes a balance between the need for social workers to understand the social, economic, cultural and psychological factors which give rise to clients’ problems, and the need to know how best to respond with practical measures.
Forensic psychology has developed and extended from an original, narrow focus on presenting evidence to the courts to a wider application across the whole span of civil and criminal justice, which includes dealing with suspects, offenders, victims, witnesses, defendants, litigants and justice professionals. This Handbook provides an encyclopedic-style source regarding the major concerns in forensic psychology. It is an invaluable reference text for practitioners within community, special hospital, secure unit, prison, probation and law enforcement forensic settings, as well as being appropriate for trainees and students in these areas. It will also serve as a companion text for lawyers and psychiatric and law enforcement professionals who wish to be apprised of forensic psychology coverage. Each entry provides a succinct outline of the topic, describes current thinking, identifies relevant consensual or contested aspects and alternative positions. Readers are presented with key issues and directed towards specialized sources for further reference.
This new text approaches the problem of the electronic structure of solid matter in terms of multiple scattering theory. It includes a short review of local density functional theories, taking the reader step-by-step through the properties of Schrodinger and Dirac Hamiltonians for a central field, and resolvents and Green functions. Ordered and disordered systems are considered, along with non-relativistic and relativistic schemes. Also discussed are the direct applications of multiple scattering to important aspects of materials science such as band structure spectography, Fermi energy related properties, and the present understanding of magnetic systems. An ideal resource for solid state physicists and materials scientists, this work may also serve as a text for graduate-level students.
