Die japanische Wirtschaft hat seit den siebziger Jahren durch Umweltschutz­ investitionen bzw. einen Ausbau von EnergieeinsparmaBnahmen die Nut­ zungseffizienz von fossilen Brennstoffen erhtiht. Gleichzeitig kann man da­ von ausgehen, daB die Emissionen der Luftschadstoffe NO , SOx und CO , x 2 gemessen an der Wachstumsrate, rtickHiufig gewesen sind. Allerdings ist mit der Aufwertung des Yen 1986 und dem Beginn des konjunkturellen Hochs eine u...

Eine Kreditentscheidung im Firmenkreditbereich setzt die Prtifung sehr komplexer, viel­ schichtiger und zeitabhangiger Kriterien voraus, die je nach Einzelfall extrem variieren konnen. Daher ist ein einfaches und allgemeingiiltiges Kreditentscheidungskonzept, wel­ ches den Charakter einer Arbeitsanweisung annehmen konnte, nicht darstellbar. Ein systematisches Grobraster, das das Kreditwiirdigkeitsfeld gebiihrend ausleuchtet, ist hier dienlich....

Einer kurzen Einleitung in das Werk Felix Hoffmanns, des 1946 verstorbenen Erfinders von Aspirin®, folgen vier separate Kapitel über die Wirkungsmechanismen der Acetylsalicylsäure, einschließlich ihrer Phamakokinetik. Im Anschluss an diesen Teil wird die gegenwärtige Verwendung von Acetylsalicylsäure bei der Prävention und Therapie des Myokardinfarkts, des Schlaganfalls, der peripheren arteriellen Verschlusskrankheit und der Venenthrombosen kr...

Independent businesses in today's market are constantly pressured to offer consumers the same value for products at competitive prices, as the large affiliates do. However, these businesses lack the necessary resources and economies of scale needed to achieve this. There is then a struggle to retain customers and gain loyalty. Due to the declining customer base, it is therefore necessary for such independent businesses to have strategies in pl...

components dissolve. The alumino silicate minerals are the great example of the incongruent class, releasing Na+, K+, HCO-, etc. ions in reaction with J water but retaining most of their atoms in re-ordered solids such as kaolinite. The karst minerals are all congruent in normal conditions. Incongruent solution of dolomite and precipitation of calcite may occur in some exceptional conditions mentioned later. The sample of congruent minerals in...

These charming little books invite interactivity with jigsaw pieces to slot in on every page

James E. Humphreys is a distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. He has previously held posts at the University of Oregon and New York University. His main research interests include group theory and Lie algebras, and this graduate level text is an exceptionally well-written introduction to everything about linear algebraic groups.

During recent years a high level of interest has been maintained in the kinetics and mechanisms of inorganic compounds in solution, and there has also been a notable upsurge of literature concerned with reaction mechanisms of organo­ transition metal compounds. The reviews of the primary literature previously provided by "Inorganic Reaction Mechanisms" (Royal Society of Chemistry) and "Reaction Mechanisms in Inorganic Chemistry" in "MTP Intern...

The first edition of this text was written primarily by one of the present authors (HAS), with a chapter on instrumentation contributed by a second (NLA). The volume was well received, and to keep the text up-to-date a second edition was planned. For this second edition, a third author (WEK) was invited, whose background complemented that of the other two. Each of the authors was assigned several chapters as his primary task while the complete...

Antibacterial Agents is an essential guide to an important class of chemotherapeutic drugs. In this full colour volume, compounds are organised according to their target, which helps the reader understand the mechanism of action of these drugs and how resistance can arise. Topics are presented using an integrated "lab-to-clinic" approach which covers drug discovery, source or synthesis, mode of action, mechanisms of resistance, clinical aspect...

Focusing on the area of Spitalfields in East London, this volume compares and contrasts the settlement, integration and assimilation processes undergone by three different immigrant groups over a period of almost three hundred and fifty years.

This book explores how the Japanese occupation of Southeast asia affected various minority groups in the region. It provides a great deal of interesting new material on this complex subject from a range of Southeast Asian countries.

Semidefinite Optimization has attracted the attention of many researchers over the last twenty years. It has nowadays a huge variety of applications in such different fields as Control, Structural Design, Statistics, or in the relaxation of hard combinatorial problems. In this thesis, we focus on the practical tractability of large-scale semidefinite optimization problems. From a theoretical point of view, these problems can be solved by polyn...

In 1937, the Nationalists under Chiang Kaishek were leading the Chinese war effort against Japan and were lauded in the West for their efforts to transform China into an independent and modern nation, yet this image was quickly tarnished. The Nationalists were soon denounced as militarily incompetent, corrupt, and antidemocratic and Chiang Kaishek, the same. In this book, van de Ven investigates the myths and truths of Nationalist resistance i...

A gripping narrative of the worst nightclub fire in American history, which killed 492 people in World War II Boston.

Experience Mary Magdalene as a rising teacher in today's spiritual arena. Through 25 insightful messages, Mary focuses on issues that often aren't addressed by spiritual leaders -- uniting the Feminine and Masculine, healing body shame, the sacredness of sexuality, and emotional mastery -- explaining how these are essential for living in the heart. Mary's universal teaching, paired with the author's clarifying commentary, makes this award-winn...
