Issue of Blood

Nick Paice is in trouble again as he finds himself embroiled in another dangerous exploit. Once more his life is on the line. Disillusioned, he'd quit his job as a top news reporter but a knock on the door of his rural retreat shatters the isolation and peace he'd sought and drags him back into the murky world of crime and corruption that he'd written about so much and thought he'd left behind.A simple mission to bring home a missing girl sucks him ever deeper into a quagmire of violence and subterfuge where he runs head on into political corruption, crooked financial deals and a doctor who's peddling death in a desperate bid to survive.It's a matter of life or death for Paice when his quest for the big story means taking on the boss of a major crime syndicate, powerful forces in the political elite and a brutal dictator. Survival means keeping one step ahead on a dangerous path that's strewn with illicit diamonds, deception and death.

Riemannian Geometric Statistics in Medical Image Analysis

Over the past 15 years, there has been a growing need in the medical image computing community for principled methods to process nonlinear geometric data. Riemannian geometry has emerged as one of the most powerful mathematical and computational frameworks for analyzing such data. Riemannian Geometric Statistics in Medical Image Analysis is a complete reference on statistics on Riemannian manifolds and more general nonlinear spaces with applications in medical image analysis. It provides an introduction to the core methodology followed by a presentation of state-of-the-art methods. Beyond medical image computing, the methods described in this book may also apply to other domains such as sign...

Land use and land cover (LULC) as well as its changes (LUCC) are an interplay between bio-geophysical characteristics of the landscape and climate as well as the complex human interaction including its different patterns of utilization superimposed on the natural vegetation. LULC is a core information layer for a variety of scientific and administrative tasks(e.g. hydrological modelling, climate models, land use planning).In particular in the context of climate change with its impacts on socio-economic, socio-ecologic systems as well as ecosystem services precise information on LULC and LUCC are mandatory baseline datasets required over large areas. Remote sensing can provide such informatio...
