Science for Better Environment: Proceedings of the International Congress on the Human Environment (HESC) focuses on the applications of science in health, human settlements, and protection of the environment. The selection first offers information on the background of HESC, including human settlements and habitat, environment and development, natural disasters, and energy. The text then discusses human’s place in natural ecosystems, along with essential properties of ecosystem, auto-regulation in ecosystem, and collapse of symbiosis between human and nature. The compilation presents a summary of the environmental problems in Japan, including progress and outstanding issues in the environm...

"Discontinuous Dynamical Systems on Time-varying Domains" is the first monograph focusing on this topic. While in the classic theory of dynamical systems the focus is on dynamical systems on time-invariant domains, this book presents discontinuous dynamical systems on time-varying domains where the corresponding switchability of a flow to the time-varying boundary in discontinuous dynamical systems is discussed. From such a theory, principles of dynamical system interactions without any physical connections are presented. Several discontinuous systems on time-varying domains are analyzed in detail to show how to apply the theory to practical problems. The book can serve as a reference book for researchers, advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, physics and mechanics. Dr. Albert C. J. Luo is a professor at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, USA. His research is involved in the nonlinear theory of dynamical systems. His main contributions are in the following aspects: a stochastic and resonant layer theory in nonlinear Hamiltonian systems, singularity on discontinuous dynamical systems, and approximate nonlinear theories for a deformable-body.
What part has organized labour played in the history of modern Britain? To what extent has British society been shaped by working class organization in industry and labour in politics? A major reinterpretation of the relationship between the history of the working class and the history of British society from 1780 to 1980, Labour in British Society (originally published in 1986) traces two recurrent themes—how the pattern of social relations in industry has developed since the Industrial Revolution, and how these patterns have been affiliated to national political and economic developments. This book is a must read for students and researchers of history.

Im Mittelpunkt der Palliativmedizin steht die Behandlung und Begleitung von Patienten mit einer nicht heilbaren, progredienten und weit fortgeschrittenen Erkrankung bei begrenzter Lebenserwartung, wie z. B. Tumorerkrankungen, AIDS, chronische internistische, neurologische und geriatrische Erkrankungen sowie pädiatrische Stoffwechselerkrankungen in der Terminalphase. Ziele des ganzheitlichen Behandlungskonzeptes sind die umfassende und fachgerechte Linderung belastender Krankheitssymptome, Hilfe bei der Krankheitsbewältigung, Rehabilitation, Verbesserung der Lebensqualität und Sterbebegleitung. Um diese zu erreichen, ist es notwendig, dass Ärzte verschiedener Fachrichtungen, Pflegepersona...
"Approximate and Renormgroup Symmetries" deals with approximate transformation groups, symmetries of integro-differential equations and renormgroup symmetries. It includes a concise and self-contained introduction to basic concepts and methods of Lie group analysis, and provides an easy-to-follow introduction to the theory of approximate transformation groups and symmetries of integro-differential equations. The book is designed for specialists in nonlinear physics - mathematicians and non-mathematicians - interested in methods of applied group analysis for investigating nonlinear problems in physical science and engineering. Dr. N.H. Ibragimov is a professor at the Department of Mathematics and Science, Research Centre ALGA, Sweden. He is widely regarded as one of the world's foremost experts in the field of symmetry analysis of differential equations; Dr. V. F. Kovalev is a leading scientist at the Institute for Mathematical Modeling, Russian Academy of Science, Moscow.
Das Buch richtet sich an diejenigen, die Mathematik in wirtschaftswissenschaftlich orientierten Studiengängen studieren. Der leicht verständliche Text ist mit vielen Beispielen und Übungen mit Lösungen ergänzt. Die Autoren haben kompakt alle elementaren mathematischen Verfahren der Wirtschaftswissenschaften anschaulich erklärt. Die praxisnahe Darstellung der Methoden wird durch die Erklärung und Anwendung des open source Programms scilab (www.scilab.org) vervollständigt. Scilab ist ein Programm für numerische Berechnungen. Durch die vordefinierte Syntax des Programms, ist eine einfache Umsetzung der Formeln möglich. Die einzelnen Programmschritte dazu sind im Text beschrieben. Jetzt in überarbeiteter und verbesserter Neuauflage, mit zwei neuen Kapiteln zum Thema Mengenlehre und Aussagenlogik vor.
The IBSS is the essential tool for librarians, university departments, research institutions and any public or private institutions whose work requires access to up-to-date and comprehensive knowledge of the social sciences.
"The book focuses on people and human-interest subjects, not the war itself, supplemented by five maps and some 25 personal photographs. To aid the reader, the authors provide an introduction to the German involvement in the war, Wehrmacht organization, the land campaigns in Europe, and a glossary, index, and bibliography. Hermann Pfrengle's memoir adds an in-depth perspective to life on the German home front and the service of youth to the Third Reich."--BOOK JACKET.
