This book is the last of three on the miracles of Jesus and concentrates on the nature miracles. It's purpose is to place them in the context of our demand for signs and our scepticism about science and our appetite for ways of fixing the environment. Theologians used to have a respect for science and could understand God's ways through it. However, we now tend to take a very fundamentalist view of the Bible. The author shows that God gave his...

Die farbige Wiedergabe von beliebigen Objekten auf optisch-photo­ chemischem Wege ist ein Problem, für das im Laufe der Jahrzehnte ungezählte Lösungen vorgeschlagen wurden. Die erste stammt von JAMES CLERC MAXWELL, für eine der elegantesten erhielt GABRIEL LIPPMANN den Nobelpreis. Nur ganz wenige Verfahren hatten Erfolge von längerer Dauer, so daß die jeweils bevorzugten Arbeitsmethoden mit der Zeit vielfach gewechselt haben. Entsprechend habe...

Life is filled with choices. From routine habits to carefully considered decisions, we make hundreds of choices each day. Human beings across the planet generally desire similar outcomes: to meet our basic needs and to live a life filled with joy, love, and peace. We all seem to take a different path to the same destination, often colliding with one another toward reaching our ideal goals, but what if we were to make an effort to consolidate o...

Das Buch stellt die Methoden der Fertigungsplanung und Fabrikplanung auf eine gemeinsame Basis, beschreibt Modelle mit ihrer mathematischen Notation und schafft die Grundlage für eine Theorie. Die heute verwendeten Methoden werden systematisch dargestellt. Für den Leser von Nutzen sind die Praxisbeispiele und Fallstudien sowie die Ansätze für Lösungen zu Problemen, die von heute eingesetzten Systemen nicht abgedeckt werden. Damit ist das Buch ...

This comprehensive handbook, the first in its field, brings together 106 different contributors. The 38 interrelated but at the same time independent chapters discuss key areas including conceptual frameworks, empirically grounded constructs, intervention strategies and tactics, social systems, designs, assessment, and analysis, cross-cutting professional issues, and contemporary intersections with related fields such as violence prevention an...

Certain trace gases in the atmosphere are able to absorb electromagnetic energy from the reflection of solar radiation from the Earth's surface. These gases have been increasing steadily and there is concern that they will change global climatic conditions by warming the atmosphere--the so-called ``greenhouse effect.'' Many of these gases originate from biological systems. The Biogeochemistry of Global Change discusses the role of radiative tr...

Wer in der vielfältigen Ingenieurpraxis auf solides Grundlagenwissen zurückgreifen will, findet in diesem Lexikon detaillierte Fachkenntnisse aus dem gesamten Maschinenbau, beispielsweise aus der Hydraulik und Pneumatik, der Getriebetechnik, der Kolben- und Turbomaschinen, der Energietechnik sowie der Maschinen und Anlagen.

The Centre de recherches mathCmatiques (CRM) was created in 1968 by the Universite de Montreal to promote research in the mathematical sci­ ences. It is now a national institute that hosts several groups, holds special theme years, summer schools, workshops, postdoctoral program. The focus of its scientific activities ranges from pure to applied mathematics, and includes satistics, theoretical computer science, mathematical methods in biology ...

The first edition of The Surveying Handbook, although a ground breaker, was widely accepted. However, surveying is a dynamic profession with each new development just one step ahead of the next, and updating became critical. In addition, the editors received constructive criticism about the first edition that needed to be addressed. So, while the objective of The Handbook remains intact, the logical evolution of the profession, along with the ...

Dieses Fachbuch beschreibt in umfassender Weise Technologie, Anwendung und Einflüsse von Bindemitteln bei der Holzwerkstoffherstellung. Besonderer Wert wird auf das Zusammenspiel und die gegenseitigen Beeinflussungen der drei Hauptparameter Holz, Bindemittel und Herstellungsbedingungen gelegt, diese drei Parameter haben entscheidenden Einfluß auf die Qualität der produzierten Holzwerkstoffe. Die Schwerpunkte des Buches sind: - Fragen der Zusam...

Any book that covers a large variety of subjects and is written by one author lacks by necessity the depth provided by an expert in his or her own field of specialization. This book is no exception. It has been written with the encouragement of my students and colleagues, who felt that an extensive card file I had accumulated over the years of teaching solid state and semiconductor physics would be helpful to more than just a few of us. This f...

In recent decades eicosanoids have been attracting an increasing amount of attention as a result of their important physiological roles in many areas of biology and medicine. The eicosanoids comprise the prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes and are products of arachidonic acid, an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid stored in tissue phospholipids. Disturbances of eicosanoids and their metabolic products play a regulatory role in many...

Pseudomonas comprises three volumes covering the biology of pseudomonads in a wide context, including the niches they inhabit, the taxonomic relations among members of this group, the molecular biology of gene expression in different niches and under different environmental conditions, the analysis of virulence traits in plants, animals and human pathogens as well as the determinants that make some strains useful for biotechnological applicati...

Mechanics is one ofthe branches ofphysics in which the number ofprinciples is at once very few and very rich in useful consequences. On the other hand, there are few sciences which have required so much thought-the conquest of a few axioms has taken more than 2000 years. "-Rene Dugas, A History 0/ Mechanics Introductory courses in engineering mechanics (statics and dynamics) are generally found very early in engineering curricula. As such, the...

Predicted long ago to be present on the surface of planetary bodies by theoreticians and recently shown by interplanetary spacecraft and ground- based instruments to be ubiquitous in the Solar System, ices in a broad sense have become an extremely important subject in planetary research. Ices found on objects formed in the remote parts of the Solar System contain a message about the composition and mode of formation of our planetary system. Th...

This book is for designers and would-be designers of digital communication systems. The general approach of this book is to extract the common principles underlying a range of media and applications and present them in a unified framework. Digital Communication is relevant to the design of a variety of systems, including voice and video digital cellular telephone, digital CATV distribution, wireless LANs, digital subscriber loop, metallic Ethe...
