Cardiovascular Diseases: Genetic Susceptibility, Environmental Factors and Their Interaction covers the special heritability characteristics and identifying genetic and environmental contributions to cardiovascular health. This important reference provides an overview of the genetic basis of cardiovascular disease and its risk factors.

Included are important topics, ranging from lifestyle choices, risk factors, and exposure, to pollutants and chemicals. Also covered are the influences of Mendelian traits and familial aggregation and the interactions and interrelationships...

Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCM) constitute cognitive models in the form of fuzzy directed graphs consisting of two basic elements: the nodes, which basically correspond to "concepts" bearing different states of activation depending on the knowledge they represent, and the "edges" denoting the causal effects that each source node exercises on the receiving concept expressed through weights. Weights take values in the interval -1,1], which denotes the positive, negative or neutral causal relationship between two concepts. An FCM can be typically obtained through linguistic terms,...

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this convenient resource provides systematic information on how Greece deals with the role religion plays or can play in society, the legal status of religious communities and institutions, and the legal interaction among religion, culture, education, and media.

After a general introduction describing the social and historical background, the book goes on to explain the legal framework in which religion is approached. Coverage proceeds from the principle of religious freedom through the rights and...

Die vierte Auflage dieses gut eingfuhrten Buches prasentiert eine breite Ubersicht uber statische, dynamische und stochastische Verfahren der Optimierungstheorie. Dazu gehoren sowohl klassische (aber nach wie vor bedeutende) Optimierungsverfahren, die sich in der Anwendung bereits vielfach bewahrt haben, als auch jungere Entwicklungen, die fur zukunftige Anwendungen besonders vielversprechend erscheinen.

Bei einem Grossteil der Verfahren werden mathematische Ableitungen und Hintergrundinformationen in verstandlicher Form mitgeliefert; so ist im Zusammenhang mit der weiterfuhrenden,...
