This book provides a detailed introduction to the preparation and characterization of microwave dielectric materials. Dielectric and structural investigation on Sr1-3x/2CexTiO3 (x=0.133 to 0.4) based ceramics is also presented. These materials posses high permittivity varying from 113 to 180 and quality factor of 8000 to 11000 GHz at 2 GHz and relatively high temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (tf). While no superlattice can be obse...

Public Engagement and Civic Maturity is a practical guide for self-reflection for those who facilitate and design participatory processes, an introduction to a distinctive way of working, and - in its concept of "civic maturity" - a visionary prophesy of a better form of civic life.

An introductory survey to America's relationship with the Asia-Pacific after 1945.

An advanced undergraduate-level textbook introducing the key analytical techniques of classical mechanics.

The Isle of Arran in the Firth of Clyde is a classic location to introduce beginners to field geology because of the richness and variety of over 600 million years of history packed into its tiny area. This book breaks the mould of 'excursion guides' by teaching the basic skills needed by any beginner when dealing with rocks in situ. It leads the student through a series of problem-solving exercises which include step-by-step instructions on w...

This title also includes animal rights activists Fang Ming-he from China and Janine Licare from Costa Rica.

Marshals a mass of statistical material into a series of clear, lucid arguments about past patterns of demographic behaviour and their relationship to economic trends.

This monograph deals with semi-infinite homological algebra. Intended as the definitive treatment of the subject of semi-infinite homology and cohomology of associative algebraic structures, it also contains material on the semi-infinite (co)homology of Lie algebras and topological groups, the derived comodule-contramodule correspondence, its application to the duality between representations of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras with complemen...

This was the first complete biography of Henry Handel Richardson.

This book addresses the main aspects of International Relations.

Das 19. Jugendabenteuer des Leutnant Blueberry setzt den mit dem Vorgängeralbum begonnenen Zyklus fort. Die Umsetzung erfolgt wieder durch den Zeichner Michel Blanc-Dumont und den Szenaristen Francois Corteggiani. Der Titel lautet: Erlösung. Bei der Jugend von Blueberry handelt es sich um die Abenteuer des jungen Mike S. Blueberry. Die Serie wurde von Blueberrys geistigem Vater Jean Michel Charlier konzipiert und von Team Corteggiani/ Blanc-Du...

Supramolecular chemistry is often described as the study of chemistry beyond the simple molecular level yet it is often forgotten how many of the pioneering su-pramolecular chemists looked to molecular biology for their ideas. The search for an aldolase enzyme mimic, the discovery of crown ethers that transported potas-sium as efficiently as valinomycin, and the synthesis of an antitubercular com-pound that resembled a transmembrane protein, a...

This fascinating book takes a very different look at Australia's all-time sporting hero, Sir Donald Bradman.

Japanese mathematics, known also under the name of wasan, experienced a remarkable development between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. Wasan took its roots from the Chinese tradition of mathematics and shared its language and its categories of problems, but gave it a new impetus, transforming the Chinese algebraic method of the "heavenly element" into a powerful tool with a much wider scope. All domains of mathematical research were ...

The world's population is growing at an unsustainable rate. From a baseline ?gure of one billion in 1800, global population is predicted to exceed nine billion by 2050 and 87. 8% of this growth will be localized in less developed countries. Such uneven population growth will yield a harvest of poverty, malnutrition, disease and en- ronmental degradation that will affect us all. Amongst the complex mixture of political, social, cultural and tec...

RNA technologies are the driving forces of modern medicine and biotechnology. They combine the fields of biochemistry, chemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, physics, nanotechnology and bioinformatics. The combination of these topics is set to revolutionize the medicine of tomorrow. After more than 15 years of extensive research in the field of RNA technologies, the first therapeutics are ready to reach the first patients. Thus we are wit...

There is a dearth of data on newborn health in Sub- Saharan Africa. Worldwide, almost four million babies die every year in the first month of life and another three millions are born dead, and are a hindrance to achieving child survival targets. The highest rates are in Africa. The World Health Organisation identified sixteen key practices that if properly used by all parents could reduce newborn deaths by 72%, but these are currently not rea...
