This book is about theory, formalization, and proof-of-concept implementation of these and related matters. In addition to presenting state-of-the-art results, the book places this work in the context of nearly twenty years of developments in formal modelling for electronic commerce.

“This book presents a basic introduction to complex analysis in both an interesting and a rigorous manner. It contains enough material for a full year’s course, and the choice of material treated is reasonably standard and should be satisfactory for most first courses in complex analysis. The approach to each topic appears to be carefully thought out both as to mathematical treatment and pedagogical presentation, and the end result is a very satisfactory book for classroom use or self-study.” –MathSciNet –This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Words of Paradise: Selected Poems of Rumi
Pdf | 109 pages | 10Mb | English | ISBN-10: 0670889350 | ISBN-13: 978-0670889358

Sublime verses from a great world mystic and modern bestseller–enriched for the first time ever by the art of his own time and culture
We are drunk on love, blatant with hope and adoration of the beloved…” In such passionate lines complemented by exquisite Persian miniatures, Words of Paradise weds word and image to convey the essence of the thirteenth-century scholar-poet Rumi, of whom The New York Times has said: “Not since the popularity of The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran in the 1960s has a poet made such a dent in American culture.” More than fifty of Rumi’s most intimate and lyrical poems, in a new translation that reflects the intoxication of the ecstatic state, are complemented by medieval miniatures from the legendary Khalili collection of Middle
Here are Rumi’s love lyrics to the Shams of Tabriz–the inspirational, mysterious dervish who came into his life unbidden, forged with him a deep spiritual union, then abandoned him and left behind a yearning that Rumi transfigured into the divine Beloved. Here also are passages from Rumi’s great didactic epic, the Masnavi-ye Ma ‘navi, with its countless interweaving tales and mystic teachings. Prefaced by a discussion of Rumi’s life and philosophy, Words of Paradise is a perfect introduction to Rumi and Sufi mysticism–and a lavishly produced, richly decorated gift book in the tradition of Viking Studio’s The Message of St. Francis and Vision. Art lovers and latter-day seekers will want it always at hand.

First Miracle Drugs: How Sulfa Drugs Transformed Medicine June 2, 2007

First Miracle Drugs: How Sulfa Drugs Transformed Medicine

John E. Lesch, «The First Miracle Drugs: How the Sulfa Drugs Transformed Medicine»
Oxford University Press, USA | ISBN: 019518775X | 1 edition (September 28, 2006) | 376 pages | PDF | 2.3 Mb

In the decade from 1935-1945, while the Second World War raged in Europe, a new class of medicines capable of controlling bacterial infections launched a therapeutic revolution that continues today. The new medicines were not penicillin and antibiotics, but sulfonamides, or sulfa drugs. The sulfa drugs preceded penicillin by almost a decade, and during World War II they carried the main therapeutic burden in both military and civilian medicine. Their success stimulated a rapid expansion of research and production in the international pharmaceutical industry, raised expectations of medicine, and accelerated the appearance of new and powerful medicines based on research. The latter development created new regulatory dilemmas and unanticipated therapeutic problems. The sulfa drugs also proved extraordinarily fruitful as starting points for new drugs or classes of drugs, both for bacterial infections and for a number of important non-infectious diseases. This book examines this breakthrough in medicine, pharmacy, and science in three parts. Part I shows that an industrial research setting was crucial to the success of the revolution in therapeutics that emerged from medicinal chemistry. Part II shows how national differences shaped the reception of the sulfa drugs in Germany, France, Britain, and the United States. The author uses press coverage of the day to explore popular perceptions of the dramatic changes taking place in medicine. Part III documents the impact of the sulfa drugs on the American effort in World War II. It also shows how researchers came to an understanding of how the sulfa drugs worked, adding a new theoretical dimension to the science of pharmacology and at the same time providing a basis for the discovery of new medicinal drugs in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. A concluding chapter summarizes the transforming impact of the sulfa drugs on twentieth-century medicine, tracing the therapeutic revolution from the initial breakthrough in the 1930s to the current search for effective treatments for AIDS and the new horizons opened up by the human genome project and stem cell research.

Model-based Geostatistics (Springer Series in Statistics) June 2, 2007

Model-based Geostatistics (Springer Series in Statistics)

Model-based Geostatistics

Peter J. Diggle / Paulo Justiniano Ribeiro, «Model-based Geostatistics (Springer Series in Statistics)»
Springer | ISBN: 0387329072 | 1 edition (January 1, 2007) | 230 pages | PDF | 7 Mb

Geostatistics is concerned with estimation and prediction problems for spatially continuous phenomena, using data obtained at a limited number of spatial locations. The name reflects its origins in mineral exploration, but the methods are now used in a wide range of settings including public health and the physical and environmental sciences. Model-based geostatistics refers to the application of general statistical principles of modeling and inference to geostatistical problems. This volume is the first book-length treatment of model-based geostatistics.

The authors have written an expository text, emphasizing statistical methods and applications rather than the underlying mathematical theory. Analyses of datasets from a range of scientific contexts feature prominently, and simulations are used to illustrate theoretical results. Readers can reproduce most of the computational results in the book by using the authors’ R-based software package, geoR, whose usage is illustrated in a computation section at the end of each chapter.

The book assumes a working knowledge of classical and Bayesian methods of inference, linear models, and generalized linear models, but does not require previous exposure to spatial statistical models or methods. The authors have used the material in MSc-level statistics courses.
