The book starts by covering the basics of thermodynamics and its applications in atmospheric science. The later chapters describe major applications, specific to more specialized areas of atmospheric physics, including vertical structure and stability, cloud formation, and radiative processes. The book concludes with a discussion of non-equilibrium thermodynamics as applied to the atmosphere.

Philosophy of Technology: An introduction for technology and business students is an accessible guide to technology s changes, their ubiquitousness, and the many questions these raise. Designed for those with no philosophical background in mind, it is ideal for technology and engineering students or specialists who want to learn to think critically about how their work influences society and our daily lives.

The technological, business environment and daily experiences are the starting point of the book and the authors reflect upon these practices from a philosophical point...

This book presents the cross-layer design and optimization of wake-up receivers for wireless body area networks (WBAN), with an emphasis on low-power circuit design. This includes the analysis of medium access control (MAC) protocols, mixer-first receiver design, and implications of receiver impairments on wideband frequency-shift-keying (FSK) receivers. Readers will learn how the overall power consumption is reduced by exploiting the characteristics of body area networks. Theoretical models presented are validated with two different receiver implementations, in 90nm and 40nm CMOS...

Maarten Wisse develops a critique of dominant trends in contemporary theology through a re-reading of Augustine's De Trinitate. Theological topics covered include the thinking about the relationship of between God and World as participation of the finite in the infinite, Christology as a manifestation of this ontology of participation, Trinity as a model for our relational mode of being and deification (theosis) as the purpose of salvation. Key figures are brought in conversation with an Augustinian alternative to these trends, such as Wolfhart Pannenberg, Joseph Ratzinger, Denys Turner,...

Desde el fin de la revoluciOn sandinista Nicaragua dejO de interesar a la prensa mundial y a los maestros de la literatura. Frente al volcAn es el vivo retrato de una naciOn donde la utopIa quedO atrAs.

Durante dos aNos Maarten Roest recorriO el paIs «de los lagos y los volcanes, dejAndose tambiEn tentar por la «otra Nicaragua caribeNa y literalmente metiendo los guantes en el obscuro mundo del boxeo nacional.

Sin compromisos pero lleno de empatIa, Roest habla de una sociedad en lucha con la dura realidad despuEs de la guerra civil. -A Nicaragua siempre la hemos...
