Physical Origins of Time Asymmetry
ISBN: 9780521568371 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 536 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the world about us, the past is distinctly different from the future. More precisely, we say that the processes going on in the world about us are asymmetric in time, or display an arrow of time. Yet this manifest fact of our experience is particularly difficult to explain in terms of the fundamental laws of physics. Newton's laws, quantum mechanics, electro-magnetism, Einstein's theory of gravity, etc., make no distinction between past and future -- they are time-symmetric.
Reconciliation of these profoundly conflicting facts is the topic of this volume. It is an interdisciplinary... In the world about us, the past is distinctly different from the future. More precisely, we say that the processes going on in the world about us are ...

John Dee's Diary, Catalogue of Manuscripts and Selected Letters
ISBN: 9781108050562 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. John Dee (1527 1608), popularly remembered as an alchemist and spiritualist, was an enthusiastic scholar specialising in mathematics and astronomy, and collected manuscripts, early printed books and scientific instruments. Despite meeting Elizabeth I in person, he never progressed in the Church, and died in poverty. The four selections from his writings reissued here show Dee painstakingly listing his books before a journey to Europe, and appealing to the Queen for help when, after a catastrophic burglary at his library and the destruction of his laboratory equipment, his pay also failed to...

Cigarette Smoke and Oxidative Stress
ISBN: 9783642068515 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 407 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From a public health point of view, there is little doubt that one of the most important preventable causes of disease worldwide is tobacco smoking. It is also clear that tobacco smoke contains a vast number of chemicals with important biological efects in disease processes. Te gas phase of tobacco smoke is oxidizing, the tar phase is reducing, and whole smoke is roughly neutral, so its efects on oxidative stress may be an antioxidant paradox. From a scientifc point of view, we found it of interest to make a comprehensive ov- view of what we presently know about oxidative stress and tobacco...

The Regius Poem or Halliwell Manuscript
ISBN: 9781944616007 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Regius Poem, also known as the Halliwell Manuscript, is a long series of rhyming couplets that make up what is thought to be the earliest of the Old Charges of Masonry. It was discovered in the British Museum by James O. Halliwell in 1838. While sometimes thought to have been written during the reign of King Athelstan (924-940 A.D.), the document actually dates to the late 14th century. Whether it is a derivative work based on a separate manuscript from Athelstan's time is unknown. However, the Regius Poem is the cornerstone of the Legend of York, which is important in Masonry even today....

Acoustical Imaging
ISBN: 9781475787948 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 565 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The origin ofthe International Acoustical Imaging Symposium series can be traced to 1967, when a meeting on acoustical holography was held in C alifornia. In those days, acoustical holography was at the leading edge of research but, as the importance of this subject waned, so the title of the series was changed from Acoustical Holography to Acoustical Imaging in 1978. The early Symposia were held at various venues in the United States. In 1980. the series became international, with the Symposium that year taking place in Cannes in France. The pattern now is to try to met alternately in the...
