Mixed-Signal Layout Generation Concepts
ISBN: 9781441953940 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mixed-Signal Layout Generation Concepts covers important physical-design issues that exist in contemporary analog and mixed-signal design flows. Due to the increasing pressure on time-to-market, the steep increase in chip fabrication costs, and the increasing design complexity, it becomes even more challenging to produce a first-time right IC layout. The fundamental issues in creating a layout are placement and routing. Although these coupled problems have been investigated for many decades, no satisfactory automated solution has emerged yet. Fortunately, supported by modern...

The Evolutionary Biology Papers of Elie Metchnikoff
ISBN: 9789048153565 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Elie Metchnikoff (1845-1916), winner of the Nobel Prize in 1907 for his contributions to immunology, was first a comparative zoologist, who, working in the wake of Darwin's On the Origin of Species, made seminal contributions to evolutionary biology. His work in comparative embryology is best known in regard to the debates with Ernst Haeckel concerning animal genealogical relationships and the theoretical origins of metazoans. But independent of those polemics, Metchnikoff developed his phagocytosis theory' of immunity as a result of his early comparative embryology...

Handbook to the Construction and Use of Insect Collection and Rearing Devices: A guide for teachers with suggested classroom applications
ISBN: 9789048167579 / Angielski / Miękka / 121 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Insects are great classroom study organisms. They are easy to collect and raise and have a fascinating array of life histories. Because they are small and have tremendous reproductive capacity ecological studies of dispersion, predation, parasitism and reproduction can be studied in compressed timeframes and small areas relative to similar studies of larger organisms. Insects are also important bioindicators of the health of ecosystems. In a small space and with very little cost colonies of insects can be raised in classrooms for use in behavioral and physiological studies. The purpose of...

Photosynthesis
ISBN: 9789401066624 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Photosynthesis--the capture of light energy by living organisms -is a simple enough concept, but its investigation draws on the resources of disciplines from all fields of science. The aim of this text is to provide a clear, stimulating and essentially affordable coverage for undergraduate students of biology. The activity of science is debate and practical experiment; its product is a body of propositions which at any given time reflects the judgment and prejudices of those taking part. The value of a proposition is related to the conceivable alternatives, and writing it down without its...

Tissue Proteomics: Pathways, Biomarkers, and Drug Discovery
ISBN: 9781617377143 / Angielski / Miękka / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the sequencing of the human genome complete, the field of proteomics, still in its early stages, has become an important and informative field of biomedical research. Many of the protocols and techniques commonly employed by proteomics researchers have been refined over the past several years, while at the same time, new and innovative methods have also been developed. Significantly, many of the protocols used in the study of the human proteome have been developed to examine proteins derived specifically from cell lines, body fluids or human tissues. As a consequence, not all protocols...

The Intelligent Genome: On the Origin of the Human Mind by Mutation and Selection
ISBN: 9783642086489 / Angielski / Miękka / 355 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Do our genes determine our behavior? Do education and environment have any influence at all? Do humans occupy a unique position in evolution? To clarify these provoking questions, the author takes the reader on an ambitious and entertaining journey through a variety of scientific disciplines. In doing so, he creates an image of human evolution that says that our entire individual knowledge is determined - to the smallest detail - by phylogeny. " ... before shocked humanists discard such radical theses as mere nonsense, they should not completely close their minds to the explanations of a...

Early Development of the Shoulder Girdle and Sternum in Marsupials (Mammalia: Metatheria)
ISBN: 9783540183587 / Angielski / Miękka / 91 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The development of the breast-shoulder apparatus in the Marsupialia was inves- tigated and compared with the conditions in Monotremata and Placentalia. The results were achieved by the investigation of material comprising altogether 109 histological serial sections of intrauterine embryos, neonates, and pouch young from 11 marsupial species. Additionally, 54 skeletons of subadult and adult marsupials from 25 species were included for comparison. The embryonic states show a strong similarity to the developmental stage of the breast-shoulder apparatus in the monotremes. In contrast, the adult...

Fishery Management
ISBN: 9780387960623 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Several textbooks and useful compendia on fisheries have been published recently, and others are in preparation. The question then arises: why publish another book on fisheries at this time? My answer is 1) that fishery research and management are such broad subjects that it is difficult, if not impossible, to cover them adequately in one volume; 2) that consequently each author has stressed those aspects of greatest immediate interest to him; and 3) that to the best of my knowl edge no adequate broad treatment of the sociopolitical aspects of fishery management has yet .appeared, although...

Cell Types and Connectivity Patterns in Mosaic Retinas
ISBN: 9783540090137 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In many parts of vertebrate and invertebrate central nervous systems, groups of nerve or receptor cells can be found that are arranged and connected according to a precise, functionally defined pattern (Braitenberg, 1973; Santini, 1975; Strausfeld, 1976; Chan-Palay, 1977). In these cases, groups of cell bodies or synapses appear as basically similar configurations, which, however, are different in detail from each other. Such abstract patterns of connectivity are of a statistical nature and do not allow, in a given example, for the prediction of the localization or connections of a particular...

Thalamocortical Organization of the Auditory System in the Cat Studied by Retrograde Axonal Transport of Horseradish Peroxidase
ISBN: 9783540094494 / Angielski / Miękka / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is known that the medial geniculate body (MGB) is the last relay center in the audi- tory system. Its projections to the auditory cortex have been studied extensively in the cat using retrograde cell degeneration and the Marchi technique. The auditory cortex has also been defined electrophysiologically and cytoarchitecturally by many authors (Fig. 1). Woolsey and Walzl (1942) first defined the primary (AI) and secondary (All) auditory areas by electrical stimulation of cochlear nerve fibers. Later studies have dem- onstrated other cortical areas responsive to auditory stimulation: the...

The Biotechnology Debate: Democracy in the Face of Intractable Disagreement
ISBN: 9789400726901 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book grounds deliberative democratic theory in a more refined understanding of deliberative practice, in particular when dealing with intractable moral disagreement regarding novel technologies. While there is an ongoing, vibrant debate about the theoretical merits of deliberative democracy on the one hand, and more recently, empirical studies of specific deliberative exercises have been carried out, these two discussions fail to speak to one another. Debates about animal and plant biotechnology are examined as a paradigmatic case for intractable disagreement in today's pluralistic...
