Color Atlas of Equine Pathology
Claus D. Buergelt, Fabio Del Piero
- Wiley-Blackwell
- 16 Octobre 2013
- 9781118520895
Color Atlas of Equine Pathology offers a practical guide to identifying equine diseases, presenting a single resource with more than 1000 images showing predominantly gross pathology. Organized by body systems, the book allows for picture matching during or after an equine necropsy. In this user-friendly atlas, each chapter takes a common format, presenting the disease process as well as congenital, degenerative, inflammatory, and neoplastic sequences, with text boxes offering quick reference to key information. The book begins with an introductory chapter summarizing the principles of the equine field necropsy, and subsequent organ-based chapters depict gross features of disease, focusing on macroscopic digital images supplemented by histology and immunohistochemistry when necessary. Some clinical information for correlation with pathology is included. Color Atlas of Equine Pathology is an essential resource for diagnostic veterinary pathologists and pathology residents, as well as for equine practitioners performing necropsies in the field.

A Companion to Nazi Germany
Armin Nolzen, Claus-Christian W. Szejnmann, Shelley Baranowski
- Wiley-Blackwell
- 3 Avril 2018
- 9781118936900
A Deep Exploration of the Rise, Reign, and Legacy of the Third Reich For its brief existence, National Socialist Germany was one of the most destructive regimes in the history of humankind. Since that time, scholarly debate about its causes has volleyed continuously between the effects of political and military decisions, pathological development, or modernity gone awry. Was terror the defining force of rule, or was popular consent critical to sustaining the movement? Were the German people sympathetic to Nazi ideology, or were they radicalized by social manipulation and powerful propaganda? Was the "Final Solution" the motivation for the Third Reich's rise to power, or simply the outcome? A Companion to Nazi Germany addresses these crucial questions with historical insight from the Nazi Party's emergence in the 1920s through its postwar repercussions. From the theory and context that gave rise to the movement, through its structural, cultural, economic, and social impacts, to the era's lasting legacy, this book offers an in-depth examination of modern history's most infamous reign. Assesses the historiography of Nazism and the prehistory of the regime Provides deep insight into labor, education, research, and home life amidst the Third Reich's ideological imperatives Describes how the Third Reich affected business, the economy, and the culture, including sports, entertainment, and religion Delves into the social militarization in the lead-up to war, and examines the social and historical complexities that allowed genocide to take place Shows how modern-day Germany confronts and deals with its recent history Today's political climate highlights the critical need to understand how radical nationalist movements gain an audience, then followers, then power. While historical analogy can be a faulty basis for analyzing current events, there is no doubt that examining the parallels can lead to some important questions about the present. Exploring key motivations, environments, and cause and effect, this book provides essential perspective as radical nationalist movements have once again reemerged in many parts of the world.

German bestseller about the best ways to protect oneself financially from the threats posed by government?s interference in the economy
After the bursting of the real estate bubble, the U.S. pushed a monetary and fiscal policy that is, at best, blatantly wrong and, at worst, carries enormous financial risk. And because Washington knows this, America?s greatest weapon?its propaganda machine?has been called into service, diverting attention away from the fact that it was and continues to be government interference in the market economy that?s lead us to where we are now, namely at the end of one financial calamity and the beginning of yet another. A plea for the market economy, The Global Debt Trap: How to Escape the Danger and Build a Fortune details the cause of our current economic crisis and argues that political mismanagement endangers finances, health and, in extreme cases, democracy itself.
? Advocates the freedom of the individual and the capitalist economic system derived from it
? Foreword by Martin Weiss, bestselling author of The Ultimate Depression Survival Guide, by Wiley
? Other titles by Leuschel and Vogt: The Greenspan Dossier
Every crisis offers opportunities for those who have prepared. The Global Debt Trap: How to Escape the Danger and Build a Fortune shows how to prepare for the aftermath of years of government interference in the market economy. -
A one-stop resource for both researchers and development engineers, this comprehensive handbook serves as a daily reference, replacing heaps of individual papers.
This second edition features twenty percent more content with new chapters on battery characterization, process technology, failure mechanisms and method development, plus updated information on classic batteries as well as entirely new results on advanced approaches.
The authors, from such leading institutions as the US National Labs and from companies such as Panasonic and Sanyo, present a balanced view on battery research and large-scale applications. They follow a distinctly materials-oriented route through the entire field of battery research, thus allowing readers to quickly find the information on the particular materials system relevant to their research.

Die Optimierung ist einer der bedeutendsten Zweige der Mathematik mit weitreichenden Anwendungen in der Statistik, Physik, Meteorologie bis hin zur Wirtschaft und Unternehmensforschung. Ziel der Optimierung ist eine Minimierung oder Maximierung der im jeweiligen System relevanten Parameter unter einschränkenden Nebenbedingungen.
Praxisbezogen führt Claus Richter in die Algorithmen der Optimierung ein. Einsteiger und Fortgeschrittene werden gleichermaßen auf den heutigen Stand der Dinge gebracht. In klaren Schritten umreißt der Autor die Grundlagen dieses Gebietes, beginnend mit Definitionen und Optimalitätsbedingungen, um sich dann direkt an den C++-Programmierer zu wenden. Der ntige mathematische Apparat, die verwendete Programmiersprache C++ und ihre Klassen werden vorgestellt. Damit stellt der Autor ein einheitliches Niveau her und wird so einer breiten Leserschaft gerecht. Im Folgenden werden 20 Verfahren der linearen, quadratischen und nichtlinearen Optimierung behandelt und dem Anwender nähergebracht. Jeder Algorithmus wird im Aufbau erläutert und an einem konkreten Beispiel demonstriert. Fünf weitere Kapitel widmen sich anwendungsbezogenen Sachverhalten, u.a. der Parameteridentifikation, optimalen Steuerung und Strukturoptimierung. Durch die Bereitstellung der diskutierten Algorithmen und Beispiele als C++-Klassen gewährleistet das Buch einen optimalen Einstieg in die Optimierung.
