Beckett and Contemporary Irish Writing
ISBN: 9780521519588 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Samuel Beckett is one of the most important figures in the history of Irish literature, and he continues to influence successive generations of writers.

Moving...

Statistical Mechanics and Stability of Macromolecules: Application to Bond Disruption, Base Pair Separation, Melting, and Drug Dissociation of the DNA Double Helix
ISBN: 9780521451840 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book develops a statistical mechanical analysis of the stability of biological macromolecules. The author's approach is valid both for the long time-scale needed for DNA bond disruption, and also for highly cooperative transitions needed to explain helix melting. Prohofsky develops a new theoretical approach for executing macromolecule calculations. In particular the author devises a method for describing chemical bond disruption in these large systems, which is then used to determine when the helix melts and how drugs can dissociate from the helix. The author finds melting temperatures...

ISBN: 9780521562683 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 478 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Walras's Market Models describes and evaluates Leon Walras' models of competitive markets. Through identification of his career phases and the associated general equilibrium models, which are shown to be very different in character, this book differs from previous examinations of his work. During his mature phase of theoretical activity, Walras was concerned with a competitive economy that passes through a phase of disequilibrium in the production and sales of commodities. While in his last phase of theoretical activity, he developed a model in which there is no production, sales, hiring,...

Kant and the Fate of Autonomy: Problems in the Appropriation of the Critical Philosophy
ISBN: 9780521781015 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. It has been argued that Kant's all-consuming efforts to place autonomy at the center of philosophy has had, in the long-run, the unintended effect of leading to the widespread discrediting of philosophy and of undermining the notion of autonomy itself. The result of this "Copernican revolution" has seemed to many commentators the de-centering, if not the self-destruction, of the autonomous self. Ameriks challenges the presumptions that dominate popular approaches to the concept of freedom, and to the interpretation of the relation among the Enlightenment, Kant and post-Kantian thought.

Global Capital and National Governments
ISBN: 9780521815215 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book examines the degree to which international financial markets affect governments' policy choices. It provides empirical evidence as to whether financial globalization creates pressures on governments of developed and developing nations to pursue similar policies and to reduce spending on social policies. The book suggests that financial globalization does not lead to a "race to the bottom" among governments, especially in developed nations. It deploys several types of evidence; the most unique are interviews and surveys of investment fund managers. It also compares contemporary...

Pragmatic Liberalism and the Critique of Modernity
ISBN: 9780521640138 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this book Gary Gutting offers a powerful account of the nature of human reason in modern times. The fundamental question addressed by the book is what authority human reason can still claim once it is acknowledged that our fundamental metaphysical and religious pictures of the world no longer command allegiance.

The book will appeal to readers in such fields as philosophy, literature, and political...

Justice for Here and Now
ISBN: 9780521621885 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book conveys the breadth and interconnectedness of questions of justice--a rarity in contemporary moral and political philosophy. James P. Sterba argues that a minimal notion of rationality requires morality, and that a minimal libertarian morality requires the welfare and equal opportunity endorsed by welfare liberals and the equality endorsed by socialists, as well as a full feminist agenda. Feminist, racial, homosexual, and multicultural justice are also shown to be mutually supporting. The author further shows the compatibility between anthropocentric and biocentric environmental...

ISBN: 9781853599729 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Spanish speakers, whether in monolingual or bilingual situations, or in majority or minority contexts, represent a considerable population worldwide. Spanish speakers in the U.S. constitute an illustrative context of the challenges faced by speech-language practitioners to provide realistic services to an increasing and diverse Spanish-speaking caseload. There is still considerable paucity in the amount of literature on Hispanic individuals with clinical relevance in speech-language pathology. Particularly lacking are works that link both empirical and theoretical bases to evidence-based...

Dental Plaque's Role in Clearance of Salivary Sucrose
ISBN: 9783659129919 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It is well established that fermentable carbohydrates and microorganisms in plaque play a significant role in pathogenesis of dental caries. The sugar most commonly associated with dental caries is sucrose and has been termed as the arch criminal of dental caries. The properties of carbohydrates that make them more cariogenic include type of sugar, consistency, oral retention, concentration of sugar, and frequency of ingestion. Cariogenic microorganisms in dental plaque metabolize fermentable carbohydrates into organic acids, which in turn cause demineralization of the enamel below the...
