Inorganic Chemistry: An Industrial and Environmental Perspective
482 pages | Feb 19, 2010 |ISBN:0126785503 | PDF | 6.5 Mb

This book addresses the question, What is inorganic chemistry good for? rather than the more traditional question, How can we develop a theoretical basis for inorganic chemistry from sophisticated theories of bonding? The book prepares students of science or engineering for entry into the multi-billion-dollar inorganic chemical and related industries, and for rational approaches to environmental problems such as pollution abatement, corrosion control, and water treatment. A much expanded and updated revision of the 1990 text

Water and Nutrient Management in Natural and Constructed Wetlands by Jan Vymazal

Water and Nutrient Management in Natural and Constructed Wetlands

Water and Nutrient Management in Natural and Constructed Wetlands by Jan Vymazal

S-r | 2010-09-27 | ISBN: 9048195845 | 375 pages | PDF | 11 MB

Natural and constructed wetlands play a very important role within the landscape and their ecological services are highly valuable. Water management, including flood water retention, biomass production, carbon sequestration, wastewater treatment and as a biodiversity source are among the most important ecological services of wetlands. In order to provide these services, wetlands need to be properly evaluated, protected and maintained.

Surgery of Spinal Tumors

Surgery of Spinal Tumors by Jorg Klekamp, Madjid Samii,

S-r | 2007 | ISBN: 3540447148 | 544 pages | PDF | 35 MB

This comprehensive monograph describes the experience gained through the treatment of patients with spinal tumors over a 25-year period. It covers clinical presentations and neuroradiological features of intramedullary, extramedullary and extradural spinal tumors. Furthermore, it provides step-by-step intraoperative photographs to describe surgical strategies and techniques, and gives detailed statistical analyses on postoperative outcomes by focussing on postoperative complications as well as short-term and long-term results. A reliable reference, this book will be of great interest to neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroradiologists, neuromolecular biologists, neurophysiotherapists and occupational therapists.

Avoiding Attack : The Evolutionary Ecology of Crypsis, Warning Signals and Mimicry

Avoiding Attack : The Evolutionary Ecology of Crypsis, Warning Signals and Mimicry

Avoiding Attack : The Evolutionary Ecology of Crypsis, Warning Signals and Mimicry
Publisher: Oxford University Press | ISBN: 0198528604 | edition 2005 | PDF | 260 pages | 2 Mb

This book discusses the diversity of mechanisms by which prey avoid attack by predators and questions how such defensive mechanisms have evolved through natural selection. It considers how potential prey avoid detection, how they make themselves unprofitable to attack, how they signal their unprofitability, and how other species have exploited these signals. Using carefully selected examples drawn from a wide range of species and ecosystems, the authors present a critical analysis of the most important published works in the field. Illustrative examples of camouflage, mimicry and warning signals regularly appear in undergraduate ecology textbooks, but these subjects are rarely considered in depth.

Health and Human Services Dept., "Research-Based Web Design & Usability Guidelines"
U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services | 2006 | ISBN: 0160762707 | 294 pages | PDF | 39,2 MB

Although recent findings show the public increasingly interacting with government Web sites, a common problem is that people can’t find what they’re looking for. In other words, the sites lack usability. The Research-Based Web Design and Usability Guidelines aid in correcting this problem by providing the latest Web design guidance from the research and other forms of evidence.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Ischemic Stroke


Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Ischemic Stroke
Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 3540008616 | edition 2005 | PDF | 302 pages | 10,7 mb

The imaging of stroke has undergone significant changes owing to the rapid progress in imaging technology. This volume, comprising three parts, is designed to provide a comprehensive summary of the current role of MR imaging in patients with ischemic stroke. The first part outlines the clinical presentations of stroke and discusses the diagnostic efficacy and therapeutic impact of MR imaging. The second and third parts form the core of the volume, and are based on a novel approach in that the topic is presented from two very different viewpoints. Part 2 provides a detailed presentation of the distinguishing features of stroke from the radiologist`s perspective. By contrast, part 3 addresses the needs of the clinician, documenting specific stroke syndromes and their correlates on MR imaging. The overall aim has been to create a well-illustrated volume with broad appeal that links pathology, radiology and stroke medicine in an informative manner.

Frantiek Baluka, Dieter Volkmann, Peter W. Barlow, "Cell-Cell Channels"
Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 0387360581 | edition 2006 | PDF | 321 pages | 22.9 mb

This book covers cell-cell channels at all levels of biological organization. The purpose of this book is to document that cells are not physically separated and fully autonomous units of biological life as stated by the currently valid Cell Theory. If not the cell then some lower level unit must fulfill this role. The book deals also with the identity of this elusive unit of biological life.
