The Soviet Biological Weapons Program
This is the first attempt to understand the full scope of the USSR’s offensive biological weapons research, from inception in the 1920s. Gorbachev tried to end the program, but the U.S. and U.K. never obtained clear evidence that he succeeded, raising the question whether the means for waging biological warfare could be present in Russia today.
Frontier Information Technology and Systems Research in Cooperative Economics
This book is the very first book-length study devoted to the advances in technological development and systems research in cooperative economics. The chapters provide, first of all, a coherent framework for understanding and applying the concepts and approaches of complexity and systems science for the advanced study of cooperative networks and particular cooperative enterprises and communities. Second, the book serves as a unique source of reliable information on the frontier information technologies available for the production, consumer, credit, and agricultural cooperative enterprises, discussing predominant strategies, potential drivers of change, and responses to complex problems. Given the diverse range of backgrounds and advanced research results, researchers, decision-makers, and stakeholders from all fields of cooperative economics in any country of the world will undoubtedly benefit from this book.
Human Anatomy
A step-by-step guide to cadaveric dissection and a simulation of the dissection procedures. Uses over 6,000 digitized still images to highlight important structures in each step of the dissection and presents sequenced images to demonstrate the more complicated procedures. Includes quiz- and note-taking capabilities and keyed references to Grant's Atlas of anatomy (9th ed.), Netter's Atlas of human anatomy (1st ed.), and Rohen and Yokochi's Color atlas of anatomy (3rd ed).
The Oddest Place on Earth
When Christopher Pala first landed at the North Pole, he fell so much in love with it that he took his girlfriend to ride the polar treadmill on what he mischievously called the First Expedition to Nowhere. For a week, the couple skied every day to the pole, pitched their tent and drifted away from it as they slept.Between his five trips to the pole, Pala used his journalistic skills to peel away the layers of myth surrounding its discovery and capture the untold story of the first men who indisputably stood there.Pala is the first to chronicle the transformation of one of the most remote places on earth into a new Mecca for adventure travelers. Flying in every April on Russian jets, he joined risk-lovers to parachute over it, balloon across it, attain it on skis and scuba-dive under it.But as he discovers, man’s presence at the pole is still ephemeral and there is plenty of opportunity to enjoy the escape from ordinary constraints of time and space provided by this breathtakingly gorgeous place that is not a place.Excerpts of the book have appeared in Condé Nast Traveler, Blue Adventure, Polar Record and other publications.
Software Engineering Perspectives in Intelligent Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th Computational Methods in Systems and Software 2020 (CoMeSySo 2020) proceedings. Software engineering, computer science and artificial intelligence are crucial topics for the research within an intelligent systems problem domain. The CoMeSySo 2020 conference is breaking the barriers, being held online. CoMeSySo 2020 intends to provide an international forum for the discussion of the latest high-quality research results.
Artificial Intelligence and Bioinspired Computational Methods
This book gathers the refereed proceedings of the Artificial Intelligence and Bioinspired Computational Methods Section of the 9th Computer Science On-line Conference 2020 (CSOC 2020), held on-line in April 2020. Artificial intelligence and bioinspired computational methods now represent crucial areas of computer science research. The topics presented here reflect the current discussion on cutting-edge hybrid and bioinspired algorithms and their applications.
Anatomie et physiologie humaines
La 5e édition d'Anatomie et physiologie humaines conserve les atouts qui lui ont valu sa renommée internationale, notamment un texte centré sur trois grands thèmes : les relations entre les différents systèmes de l'organisme ; l'homéostasie ; la relation entre la structure et la fonction. Cet ouvrage se démarque par la clarté de son écriture et la variété de ses outils pédagogiques. Il offre des objectifs précis et détaillés au début de chaque grande section ; des encadrés "Gros plan"; des figures "Zoom", des explications détaillées sur des mécanismes complexes ; de nombreux exemples de déséquilibres homéostatiques ; des encadrés "Synthèse", une rubrique "Termes médicaux"; des résumés qui reprennent l'essentiel du contenu de chacun des chapitres, ainsi que des exercices de révision variés. Les progrès de la recherche en biologie sont présents tout au long de l'ouvrage, aussi bien dans le corps du texte que dans les différentes rubriques (aperçu des mécanismes récemment découverts et de nouveaux traitements, présentation des nouvelles techniques, etc).
Film and Identity in Kazakhstan
Cinema and nationalism are two fundamentally modern phenomena, but how have films shaped our understanding of the creation -the 'imagining' - of Central-Asian nations? Here, Rico Isaacs uses cinema as an analytical lens to explore how the Kazakh national identity has been constructed and contested. Drawing on an analysis of Kazakh films from the last century, and featuring new interviews with directors and critics involved in the Central Asian film industry, his book traces the construction of nationalism within Kazakh cinema from the country's inception as a Soviet Republic to a modern independent nation.Isaacs identifies four narratives since the collapse of the Soviet Union: a warrior-lik...
