Following upheaval Egypt, Libya and Tunisia, this book discusses the autocratic state not as a unit characterized by strength or weakness but rather as a structure that can alternately inhibit or facilitate the appearance of protests at the national level.

This book covers recent developments in the non-standard asymptotics of the mathematical narrow escape problem in stochastic theory, as well as applications of the narrow escape problem in cell biology.

This book provides an authoritative overview of botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) treatment menus for 14 pain categories with an evidence based literature review on each pain disorder, illustrative figures along with brief video clips showing the techniques and patient interviews.

This book covers a wide range of issues in fire safety engineering in tunnels, describes the phenomena related to tunnel fire dynamics, presents state-of-the-art research, and gives detailed solutions to these major issues.

Contract Analysis and Design for Supply Chains with Stochastic Demand

Taking the World Health Organization's report on the top-ten causes of death worldwide as its starting point, this volume sets out the opportunities that exist for both biomaterials scientists and physicians to tackle these leading contributors to mortality.

This book offers a new method for studying hybrid models: Generalized Principal Component Analysis. Coverage includes statistical, geometric and algebraic concepts associated with estimation and segmentation of hybrid models, especially hybrid linear models.

Note from the prefaces in the first and second volumes: "This four-volume book grew from a four-semester general physics curriculum which I developed and taught for the past decade to undergraduate students at Wisconsin Lutheran College in Milwaukee."

This book explores digital artists' articulations of globalization. Digital art is explored in terms of how it re-centers articulations of globalization around individual experiences and offers new ways of accessing a complex topic often expressed in general and intangible terms.

This book covers monitoring, failure localization, and restoration in the Internet optical backbone. The authors analyze the technology in context of Internet fault management and failure recovery under the Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS).

Despite the fact that thousands of employees have been trained in food safety around the world, millions have been spent globally on food safety research, and countless inspections and tests have been performed at home and abroad, food safety remains a significant public health challenge.

This in-depth analysis of financial products that are traded in the weather market links the mathematical aspects of weather variable modeling to markets and the pricing of weather derivatives, and offers strategies for hedging against weather-related risk.

This book is about how models can be developed to represent demand and supply on markets, where the emphasis is on demand models. In this book, the authors present a wealth of insights developed at the forefront of the field, covering all key aspects of specification, estimation, validation and use of models.

New textbooks at all levels of chemistry appear with great regularity. Our goal, in this series, is to pinpoint areas of chemistry where recent progress has outpaced what is covered in any available textbooks, and then seek out and persuade experts in these fields to produce relatively concise but instructive introductions to their fields.

Some imidoyl halides have shown interesting agricultural activities, and the generation of highly reactive species (ketenimines, nitrile oxides, nitrile imides, carbodiimides, etc.) from imidoyl halides has contributed to the study of polar cycloaddition reactions.

This book focuses on the problem of video streaming over emerging cognitive radio (CR) networks, ad hoc CR networks, cooperative CR networks, and femtocell CR networks. It presents optimal algorithms to solve these problems.

The Springer Series in Cognitive Development contains two basic types of books, namely, edited collections of original chapters by several authors, and original volumes written by one author or a small group of authors.

In its classical sense "epigenesis" refers to all geological processes originating at or near the surface of the earth.

This book was conceived many years ago as an abstract goal for a father-son team when the father was working in university administration and the son was just getting into the academic business.

This book is a sequel to Reliability Evaluation of Engineering Systems: Concepts and Techniques, written by the same authors and published by Pitman Books in January 1983.
