(P/B) THE SCIENCE OF... ALIENS
ARE WE ALONE?
Εκδότης: PRESTEL
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3592-0319

Are we alone? The idea of life existing elsewhere in the Universe has been put forward by philosophers since the time of Ancient Egypt. Today, through science fiction literature, films and television we have all had close encounters with aliens. Now The Science of Aliens examines the possibilities of alien life in outer space as well as presenting a close-up look at 'aliens' on earth. Based on an international interactive exhibition. The Science of Aliens is a combination of imagination and ground-breaking science in the quest for extrater...

(H/B) HUMAN RIGHTS
NEW DIMENSIONS AND CHALLENGES
Εκδότης: ASHGATE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0363-0114

The necessity to develop human rights education has been underlined in numerous resolutions adopted by the United Nations General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the Commission on Human Rights, UNESCO and other United Nations bodies and specialized agencies. The final document of the World Conference on Human Rights (Vienna, June 1993) stressed the crucial importance of human rights education, training and public information, and proposed the proclamation of a special United Nations Decade. In accordance with this sugge...

(P/B) SEX AND DEATH
AN INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY OF BIOLOGY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0991-0030

Is the history of life a series of accidents or a drama scripted by selfish genes? Is there an "essential" human nature, determined at birth or in a distant evolutionary past? What should we conserve - species, ecosystems, or something else? Informed answers to questions like these, critical to our understanding of ourselves and the world around us, require both a knowledge of biology and a philosophical framework within which to make sense of its findings. In this accessible introduction to philosophy of biology, Kim Sterelny and Paul E. ...

(P/B) ENERGY MANAGEMENT IN BUILDINGS
Εκδότης: ROUTLEDGE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3707-0913

The need to manage this has been given new emphasis by the introduction of the Climate Change Levy. Energy Management in Buildings introduces students and energy managers to the principles of managing and conserving energy consumpton in buildings people use for work or leisure. Energy consumption is considered for the provision of space heating, hot water, sup...

(H/B) THE EQUATION THAT COULDN'T BE SOLVED
HOW MATHEMATICAL GENIUS DISCOVERED THE LANGUAGE OF SYMMETRY
Εκδότης: SOUVENIR PRESS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3781-0017

What do the music of J. S. Bach, the rubik's cube and sexual attraction have in common? All are characterised by symmetry. Symmetry is the concept that bridges the worlds of art and science, a concept that spans the world of theoretical physics and the everyday world we see around us. Yet the 'language' of symmetry, group theory in mathematics, emerged from the unlikeliest of origins, an equation that couldn't be solved. Over the millennia, mathematicians had solved progressively more difficult algebraic equations until they came to the qu...

(H/B) CONTESTING JUSTICE
WOMEN, ISLAM, LAW, AND SOCIETY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3794-0042

Argues that the rights of women in Muslim society are based on the preserved cultural standards of elites, not the ethical philosophy of the Quran. Contesting Justice examines the development of the laws and practices governing the status of women in Muslim society, particularly in terms of marriage, polygamy, inheritance, and property rights. Ahmed E. Souaiaia argues that such laws were not methodically derived from legal sources but rather are the preserved understanding and practices of the early ruling elite. Based on his quantitative...

From the rediscovering of Pompeii in the 16th century to the deciphering of the Rosetta stone in the 18th century to the 20th-century discoveries of King Tut's tomb, archaeological finds have continually put the hard evidence of the past in our hands.

(H/B) BAYESIAN APPROACHES TO CLINICAL TRIALS AND HEALTH-CARE EVALUATION
Εκδότης: WILEY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0775-0002

The Bayesian approach involves synthesising data and judgement in order to reach conclusions about unknown quantities and make predictions. Bayesian methods have become increasingly popular in recent years, notably in medical research, and although there are a number of books on Bayesian analysis, few cover clinical trials and biostatistical applications in any detail. Bayesian Approaches to Clinical Trials and Health-Care Evaluation provides a valuable overview of this rapidly evolving field, including basic Bayesian ideas, prior distribu...

(H/B) BAYESIAN MODELS FOR CATEGORICAL DATA
Εκδότης: WILEY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0775-0005

This book continues the themes in my two earlier Wiley books in seeking to make modern Bayesian methods accessible via a practically oriented exposition, with statistical computing and applied data analysis at the forefront. As before, I have focused on the WINBUGS package, which has now reached a wide degree of acceptance in application to the ever expanding corpus of methodological work and applications based on Monte Carlo Markov Chain techniques. I hope that the applied focus will help students and researchers alike, including those wi...

(H/B) PROMETHEAN AMBITIONS
ALCHEMY AND THE QUEST TO PERFECT NATURE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0991-0111

There were two prime movers to this book, even if that may be a contradiction in terms. The first was the Institute for Advanced Study, where I spent a blissful year as a member in 2000-2001, with additional support from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation, the National Science Foundation (SES-9906126), and Indiana University. Heinrich von Staden of the IAS was an inexhaustible source of help in all things ancient, and I owe him above all others for the success of my stay there. In addition, my participation in the art history seminar run...

(P/B) EMBLEMS OF MIND
THE INNER LIFE OF MUSIC AND MATHEMATICS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 0991-0187

Looking back on a journey is not always a good idea: one tends to see the turns not taken, the perspectives missed, essential things overlooked. Or else one forgets the difficulties altogether and re-remembers it as an untroubled romp. But looking back at this book, a decade after it was published, leaves me with a very different sense. The difficulties are still here, though I also hope readers will not be discouraged from persevering, or else, at the very least, that they will shift their attention from the knotty details to what musicia...
