This handbook describes several current trends in the development of bioceramics and biocomposites for clinical use in the repair, remodelling, and regeneration of bone tissue. Comprehensive coverage of these materials allows fundamental aspects of the science and engineering to be seen in close relation to the clinical performance of dental and orthopaedic implants. Bioceramics and biocomposites appear to be the most dynamic area of materials development for both tissue engineering and implantable medical devices. Almost all medical specialties will continue to benefit from these developments, but especially dentistry and orthopaedics. In this Handbook, leading researchers describe the use ...

Ist die mit 3,2 Millionen versicherte Gattin des deutschen Physiklehrers im Fernosturlaub wirklich ertrunken? Was war das für ein seltsamer Stromschlag in Rumänien? Was hat die Leiche im Beton mit dem Diskothekenbrand zu tun? Und warum ermittelt der bayerische Kommissar so lasch gegen eine Lokalgröße? Wolfgang Unterfeld ist Schadensermittler. Wenn eine der großen deutschen Versicherungen bei ihm anruft, geht es fast immer um Millionenbeträge. Seine Arbeit beginnt oft erst, wenn die Polizei allein nicht mehr weiterkommt. Unterfeld ist international unterwegs. In 30 Jahren hat er auf vier von fünf Kontinenten fast 800 Fälle bearbeitet, die meisten von ihnen aufgeklärt und dafür rund drei Millionen Flugkilometer zurückgelegt. Er geriet dabei auch selbst in Lebensgefahr. Ein Meister der Tarnung, der hier zum ersten Mal sein Schweigen bricht und seine spannendsten Fälle erzählt, filmreife Geschichten aus dem wirklichen Leben, in denen es um die ganz große Kohle geht.
