A First Course in Real Analysis
ISBN: 9780387942179 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mathematics is the music of science, and real analysis is the Bach of mathematics. There are many other foolish things I could say about the subject of this book, but the foregoing will give the reader an idea of where my heart lies. The present book was written to support a first course in real analysis, normally taken after a year of elementary calculus. Real analysis is, roughly speaking, the modern setting for Calculus, "real" alluding to the field of real numbers that underlies it all. At center stage are functions, defined and taking values in sets of real numbers or in sets (the plane,...

Random Discrete Structures
ISBN: 9780387946238 / Angielski / Twarda / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The articles in this volume present the state of the art in a variety of areas of discrete probability, including random walks on finite and infinite graphs, random trees, renewal sequences, Stein's method for normal approximation and Kohonen-type self-organizing maps. This volume also focuses on discrete probability and its connections with the theory of algorithms. Classical topics in discrete mathematics are represented as are expositions that condense and make readable some recent work on Markov chains, potential theory and the second moment method. This volume is suitable for...

Idea to Product: The Process
ISBN: 9780387947426 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The young investigator with an idea has to negotiate many institutional, federal, and industrial challenges in order to get a product to market. Nowhere is described the steps in the development of new drugs, diagnos tics, or devices; the person with an idea has nowhere to turn for information and details. The young investigator may understand the elements of basic and clinical research, but ordinarily has no insight into novel ways of finding research funding or how to explore to find the funding opportunities that are available. The young investigator has little knowledge of the mecha nisms...

Infinite Dimensional Groups with Applications
ISBN: 9780387962160 / Angielski / Twarda / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume records most of the talks given at the Conference on Infinite-dimensional Groups held at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute at Berkeley, California, May 10-May 15, 1984, as a part of the special program on Kac-Moody Lie algebras. The purpose of the conference was to review recent developments of the theory of infinite-dimensional groups and its applications. The present collection concentrates on three very active, interrelated directions of the field: general Kac-Moody groups, gauge groups (especially loop groups) and diffeomorphism groups. I would like to express my...

Right Hemisphere and Verbal Communication
ISBN: 9780387971018 / Angielski / Twarda / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book provides a critical review of the questions as well as the data pertaining to the contribution of the right "non-dominant" hemisphere to verbal communication. Three main sources of observation are reviewed: experiments with normal subjects, with split-brain subjects, and with brain-damaged subjects. The first three chapters present (1) a historical introduction, (2) a critical review of the advantages and limits of the different methodologies used, and (3) a discussion of the contribution of the aphasia literature. Then, each subsequent chapter addresses one particular component of...

The Commentary of Al-Nayrizi on Book I of Euclid's Elements of Geometry: With an Introduction on the Transmission of Euclid's Elements in the Middle A
ISBN: 9780391041929 / Angielski / Twarda / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For more than two millennia, the Elements of Geometry by the Greek mathematician Euclid of Alexandria (ca. 300 B.C.E. ) was held to be "the supreme example of the exercise of human reason" and "a paradigm of rational certainty" (from the preface, after Simon Blackburn). The Commentary of al-Nayrizi on Book I of Euclid's Elements of Geometry introduces readers to the transmission of Euclid's Elements from the Middle East to the Latin West in the medieval period and then offers the first English translation of al-Nayrizi's (d. ca. 922) Arabic commentary on Book I. The Three Volumes...

Lavoisier in the Year One: The Birth of a New Science in an Age of Revolution
ISBN: 9780393328547 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Antoine Lavoisier reinvented chemistry, overthrowing the long-established principles of alchemy and inventing an entirely new terminology, one still in use by chemists. Madison Smartt Bell's enthralling narrative reads like a race to the finish line, as the very circumstances that enabled Lavoisier to secure his reputation as the father of modern chemistry--a considerable fortune and social connections with the likes of Benjamin Franklin--also caused his glory to be cut short by the French Revolution.

Ancient Meteorology
ISBN: 9780415161954 / Angielski / Twarda / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The first book of its kind in English, Ancient Meteorology discusses Greek and Roman approaches and attitudes to this broad discipline, which in classical antiquity included not only 'weather', but occurrences such as earthquakes and comets that today would be regarded as geological, astronomical or seismological. The range and diversity of this literature highlights the question of scholarly authority in antiquity and illustrates how writers responded to the meteorological information presented by their literary predecessors. Ancient Meteorology will be a... The first book of its kind in English, Ancient Meteorology discusses Greek and Roman approaches and attitudes to this broad discipline, wh... |

Ancient Meteorology
ISBN: 9780415161961 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Antiquity, meteorology included the study of the weather as well as the study of geological, seismological and astronomical phenomena, such as earthquakes and comets. This book explores Greek and Roman approaches and attitudes to this broad subject. Given the importance of farming in ancient society, it is not surprising that so much was written about the prediction of the weather and how to respond to it. But meteorology was not just for farmers. Poets, philosophers and physicians were also interested, and used the subject to raise questions about the nature of the world and how we...

ISBN: 9780415289238 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Based at the Parisian Museum of Natural History, Cuvier compared the fossil bones he dug from the quarries of Montmartre with those of animals alive today.

Geology & Mineralogy, Considered with Reference to Natural Theology, Volume II, 1836
ISBN: 9780415289252 / Angielski / Twarda / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Moving away from his earlier belief in a short, catastrophic history of the Earth, Buckland's treatise envisages instead and propounds the theory of a course of progressive change that occurred as the Earth gradually cooled and became ready for human occupation. During this time, the creatures that first walked the Earth did not die out because they were poorly designed; God loved the dinosaurs and had adapted them to their various circumstances.
