Fasziniert beobachten wir die Seehunde im Wattenmeer, die sich während des Sommers auf den Sandbänken tummeln und dort ihre Jungen zur Welt bringen. Pfeilschnell schwimmen sie durchs Wasser und schauen uns mit ihren großen, runden Kulleraugen an, wenn wir in Booten an ihnen vorbeifahren. Dass das heute so ist, verdanken wir den umfangreichen Schutzmaßnahmen im Nationalpark Wattenmeer und der unermüdlichen Arbeit der Seehundstationen. Im W...

Over the last decades, applications of irreversible electroporation (IRE) have emerged in biotechnology, food industry, and medicine. IRE uses a series of microsecond electric pulses that permanently open cell membranes and lead to cell death. The goal of this book is to address certain aspects of two major IRE applications: disinfection and tissue ablation in the treatment of diseases such as cancer. In relation to disinfection, I discuss IRE...

Adolescence is always an unsettling time, with many physical, emotional, psychological and social changes that accompany this stage of life. Unrealistic academic, social, or family expectations can create a strong sense of rejection and can lead to deep disappointment. When things go wrong at school or at home, teens often overreact. Many of them feel that life is not fair or that things "never go their way". They feel "stressed out" and confu...

The molecular theory of water and aqueous solutions has only recently emerged as a new entity of research, although its roots may be found in age-old works. The purpose of this book is to present the molecular theory of aqueous fluids based on the framework of the general theory of liquids. The style of the book is introductory in character, but the reader is presumed to be familiar with the basic properties of water [for instance, the topics ...

The 60th birthday of Peter Lax was celebrated at Berkeley by a conference entitled Wave Motion: theory, application and computation held at the mathematical Sciences Research Institute, June 9-12, 1986. Peter Lax has made profound and essential contributions to the topics described by the title of the conference, and has also contributed in important ways to many other mathematical subjects, and as a result this conference volume dedicated to ...

The title of any monograph must necessarily be a compromise between brevity and precision, and the needs of this compromise are particularly pressing in a newly emerging area of scientific interest, one that is not only inter- or bidisciplinary, but tridisciplinary, involving as it does psychology, pharmacology, and genetics. The temptation to call this work "psychophar­ macogenetics" -tout court, if the phrase can be applied to so polysyllabi...

The state of health care is reflected by perinatal and neonatal morbidity and mortality as well as by the frequencies of long-term neurological and developmental disorders. Many factors, some without immediately recognizable significance to childbearing and many still unknown, undoubtedly contribute beneficially or adversely to the outcome of pregnancy. Knowledge concerning the impact of such factors on the fetus and surviving infant is critic...

Electron spin relaxation has established itself as an important experimental method for studying the details of molecular motion in liquids, and as a harsh testing ground for theoreticians. The theo­ retical difficulties are connected with the complexity of the mole­ cular motion, and the theoretical interest lies not only in its im­ portant consequences for the interpretation of experiments, but also in the fascination of a system in which a ...

Atomic Physics 7 presents the manuscripts of the invited talks delivered at the Seventh International Conference of Atomic Physics, held at M.I.T. August 4-8, 1980. This conference continues the tradition of the earlier conferences by reviewing broad areas of fundamental atomic physics and related subjects. In addition to the invited talks, one hundred and ninety contributed papers were presented in poster sessions. Abstracts of the contribute...

For there is hope of a tree, If it be cut down, That it will sprout again And that the tender branch Thereof will not cease. Job XIV (7) Mankind has been blessed with a multitude of resources. In the beginning he utilized almost soley replenishable items such as vegetation and animal protein, for both nourishment and shelter. Gradually, such metals as copper and iron were developed and replaced wood as a material of construction. Cement and gl...

OUR AGE IS CHARACTERIZED by an uncertainty about the na­ ture of moral obligations, about what one can hope for in an afterlife, and about the limits of human knowledge. These uncertainties were captured by Immanuel Kant in his Critique of Pure Reason, where he noted three basic human questions: what can we know, what ought we to do, and what can we hope for. Those questions and the uncer­ tainties about their answers still in great part defin...

Egocentricity is characteristically human. It is natural for our prime in­ terest to be ourselves and for one of our major concerns to be what affects us personally. Aging and death - universal and inevitable­ have always been of compelling concern. Mystical explanations were invented when scientific answers were lacking. and gross physiologi­ As scientific knowledge developed, anatomy cal processes were explained, and the roles of the endocri...

While sales of dietary supplements have skyrocketed in recent years, information about their safety and efficacy in humans is generally sparse in comparison with what is available for prescription drugs. Dietary Supplements: Toxicology and Clinical Pharmacology presents, in both comprehensive and summary formats, a wealth of objective information for a selection of significant nonherbal dietary supplements. The supplements detailed were chosen...
