»Scharfsinnig beobachtet, nuanciert erzählt und schmerzlich schön.« Elif Shafak

An einem orangegetünchten Abend kommt im September 1905 in der Hafenstadt Smyrna ein kleines Mädchen zur Welt. Sie wächst behütet auf bei ihrer griechischen Familie, umgeben von goldfarbenen Minaretten, dem süßen Duft von Feigen und dem Klang einer Mandoline, die ein verliebter Junge unter ihrem Fenster spielt. Doch die Idylle zerbricht jäh, als nach dem Zerfall des Osmanischen Reichs aus Nachbarn plötzlich Feinde werden. Während die Stadt von einem verheerenden Feuer...

The advancements in micro- and nano-fabrication techniques, especially in the last couple of decades, have led research communities, over the world, to invest unprecedented levels of attention on the science and technology of micro- and nano-scale devices and the concerned applications. With an intense focus on micro- and nanotechnology from a fluidic perspective, Microfluidics and Microscale Transport Processes provides a broad review of advances in this field. A comprehensive compendium of key indicators to recent developments in some very active research topics in microscale...

Mechanics Over Micro and Nano Scales covers the recent developments in the fields of mechanics in all forms over micro, meso and nano scales. Special emphasis is given to related novel applications and includes fundamental aspects of fluid and solid mechanics, soft matters, scaling laws, and synthetic biology. At the micro and nano scales, realization of many technologically viable ideas relies on the skillful integration ofmechanics at macroscopic and molecular levels, both for solids as well as fluids. Research in the related areas is no longer confined to the understanding of the...
