Neuro-informatics and Neural Modelling - book by Moss, F.;Gielen, S. DESCRIPTION: How do sensory neurons transmit information about environmental stimuli to the central nervous system? How do networks of neurons in the CNS decode that information, thus leading to perception and consciousness? These questions are among the oldest in neuroscience. Quite recently, new a... view more info and the price of this book. |
Quantum Theory, Deformation and Integrability - book by Carroll, R. DESCRIPTION: About four years ago a prominent string theorist was quoted as saying that it might be possible to understand quantum mechanics by the year 2000. Sometimes new mathematical developments make such understanding appear possible and even close, but on the other hand, increasing lack of ex... view more info and the price of this book. |

DESCRIPTION: Twelve problems have been added to the first edition; four of them are supplements to problems in the first edition. The others deal with issues that have become important, since the first edition of Volume II, in recent developments of various areas of physics. All the problems have th... view more info and the price of this book. |
III-Nitride Semiconductors: Electrical, Structural and Defects Properties - book by Manasreh, M.O. DESCRIPTION: Research advances in III-nitride semiconductor materials and device have led to an exponential increase in activity directed towards electronic and optoelectronic applications. There is also great scientific interest in this class of materials because they appear to form the first semic... view more info and the price of this book. |
Cosmic Rays at Earth - book by Grieder, P.K.F. DESCRIPTION: In 1912 Victor Franz Hess made the revolutionary discovery that ionizing radiation is incident upon the Earth from outer space. He showed with ground-based and balloon-borne detectors that the intensity of the radiation did not change significantly between day and night. Consequently, ... view more info and the price of this book. |

Frontiers in Surface Science and Interface Science - book by Duke, C.B.;Plummer, E. W. DESCRIPTION: Any notion that surface science is all about semiconductors and coatings is laid to rest by this encyclopedic publication: Bioengineered interfaces in medicine, interstellar dust, DNA computation, conducting polymers, the surfaces of atomic nuclei - all are brought up to date. Frontier... view more info and the price of this book. |
Advances in Low Temperature RF Plasmas. Basis for Process Design - book by Makabe, T. DESCRIPTION: Low temperature plasmas have had a very broad range of applications ever since their discovery. However, recent developments in the dextrous handling of dry etching non-equilibrium plasma has attracted a great common interest that has driving force behind the major developments in diagn... view more info and the price of this book. |

DESCRIPTION: Most of the natural and biological phenomena such as solute transport in porous media exhibit variability which can not be modeled by using deterministic approaches. There is evidence in natural phenomena to suggest that some of the observations can not be explained by using the models ... view more info and the price of this book. |
