From the reviews: "...a fine book [...] When it appeared in 1949 it was a pioneer. But Hasse has something extra to offer.[...] Hasse proved that miracles do happen in his five beautiful papers on quadratic forms of 1923-1924. [...]It is trite but true: Every number-theorist should have this book on his or her shelf."

This book explores the technologies and approaches of fuzzy logic in the Semantic Web. Coverage includes fuzzy description logics and fuzzy ontologies, fuzzy Semantic Web ontology mapping, and fuzzy rules and their interchange in the Semantic Web.

Linking clinical ophthalmology to its basic science roots, this book reviews basic physics including the nature of light and its interaction with matter. The chemistry section covers organic and inorganic molecules, redox reactions and biological chemistry.

The first publication to include a condensed, yet complete treatment of anaphora and modality, this volume's integrated theory combines classical formal semantics and modern dynamic semantics without altering the fundamental linguistic paradigm.

Presents an agent-based simulation model that facilitates electricity market research. This book addresses researchers, lecturers and students who are interested in applying agent-based simulation to power markets. It provides a discussion of the methodology and helpful details for model implementation.

This volume proposes ways of overcoming the practical limitations of current theories of economic growth, synthesizing concepts in growth theory and national development to provide an updated model for agriculture-focused and late-industrializing economies.

This book provides a rigorous but elementary introduction to the theory of Markov Processes on a countable state space. Topics covered include: Doeblin's theory, general ergodic properties, and continuous time processes.

This book takes a new approach on teaching the subject by following the chain of measurement through atmosphere, imaging, detection, spectroscopy, timing and hypothesis testing. It covers all wavelengths: radio, infrared, optical, UV, X-ray, gamma-ray.

This book presents key facts in head and neck imaging in short chapters written in an easily readable style. It uses line drawings to illustrate key concepts and tables, checklists, and algorithms will help the reader to arrive at a quick diagnosis.

This book offers state of the art coverage on all aspects of total knee joint arthroplasty (TKA), including basic science, design, and prosthetic materials. It describes basic and advanced operative procedures of primary and revision TKA in detail.

This book gathers essays, speeches and academic papers of Hu Shih, revealing insights on scientific methodology, liberalism and democracy, and social problems. Volume 2 mainly covers language reform, which succeeded in both the educational and literary fields.

This detailed description of the fundamental developments in statistical theory around 1950 points out the centrally important interplay between increasingly refined mathematical techniques and the concomitant developments in methodological concepts.

This book collects essays, speeches and academic papers of Hu Shih, revealing insights on scientific methodology, liberalism and democracy, and social problems. Volume 1 traces the development of Chinese thought and reviews the applied historical methodology.

Focusing on a region where torrential rains, cold-air surges and heat waves are a part of the economy, culture and rhythms of life, The Asian Monsoon examines the monsoon environment. The text analyses paleoclimate records, human influences on the monsoon climate and the monsoon's economic affects.

Although primarily a physicist who worked on statistical prob lems in nuclear physics, on probability theory and on computational physics he had an extensive knowledge of the philosophy of science and of philosophy, and was fluent in many languages.

This detailed, interdisciplinary book follows the BPM lifecycle from process identification to monitoring, covering modelling, analysis, redesign and automation. Blends concepts and methods from business management, computer science and industrial engineering.

Die verschiedenen und teils widerspruchlichen Theorien uber den Ursprung des Lebens auf der Erde stellt der Autor vor und pruft sie kritisch anhand neuester Forschungsergebnisse. Das Buch bietet einen gut verstandlichen UEberblick zum aktuellen Forschungsstand.

This book offers a guided historical and scientific tour of our understanding of element synthesis. Beginning with generally accepted science, the book ends in today's terra incognita of nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology

This book offers a critical approach to the challenging interpretation of new research data obtained using functional neuroimaging in whiplash injury. It covers all aspects, including the imaging tools themselves and the different methods of image analysis.

The different imaging and analytical modes using secondary and backscattered electrons, electron-beam-induced currents, X-ray and Auger electrons, electron channelling effects, and cathodoluminescence are discussed to evaluate specific contrasts and to obtain quantitative information.

This book explains over 1,000 terms from weighing technology and includes many illustrations. Terms used relate to the following topics: Fundamentals of Weighing, Using Scales, International Norms and Legal Requirements for Weighing, and Precision in Weighing.

The author of this book invites the reader to explore the science of computing. He is convinced that a good explanation of even the most basic techniques can demonstrate the power and magic of the underlying principles. His book is a fascinating read.
