Overview: Just a very few years after Edler and Hertz had described the clinical use of M-mode echocardiographyl Satomura reported the application of Dop- 2 pler ultrasound to the study of cardiac function. Yet Doppler ultrasound has been integrated into diagnostic practice in cardiology much more slowly than conventional (M-mode and two-dimensional) echocardiogra- phy. Now, however, tremendous growth in the interest of clinicians in the diagnostic use of Doppler ultrasound can be observed and may in fact be due to the recent advent of color flow imaging. The reason for this growth may be that

In few years this Laboratory was transfered into the I. V. Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy, and I continued to work in this Institute up to 1965. In parallel I also worked at Moscow State University as Professor i

Overview: Erfolgsfaktoren und Besonderheiten von Commoditys und ihre spezielle Verkaufsf?rderungBegriffe wie "Commodity" bzw. "Commodity Marketing" oder gar der "Commoditi- sierung" tauchen zunehmend in der Diskussion im Marketing in Wissenschaft und Praxis auf. Vor dem Hintergrund einer allgemeinen Auseinandersetzung mit der theo- retischen Fundierung des Marketing stellt sich die Frage, ob es sich dabei um Modeer- scheinungen oder aber relevante Tendenzen für die Entwicklung des Marketing han- delt. Commodities bedeuten ursprünglich Güter oder Waren. Im allgemeinen Sprach- gebrauch und in de

Overview: Contemporary British Autoethnography is a uniquely British collection of work, which captures the variations and possibilities in autoethnography at paradigmatic, theoretical and representational leveThis engaging, informative book makes an exciting contribution to current discussions about the challenges and uses of contemporary autoethnography. Authors from a range of disciplines ‘show and tell’ us how they have created autoethnographies, demonstrating a rich blend of theories, ethical research practices, and performances of identities and voice, linking all of those with the socio

Overview: This book contains invited papers and a selection of research papers submitted to Computer Animation ‘91, the third international work- shop on Computer Animation, which was held in Geneva on May 22-24. This workshop, now an annual event, has been organized by the Computer Graphics Society, the University of Geneva, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. During the international workshop on Computer Animation ‘91, the fourth Computer-generated Film Festival of Geneva, was held. The book presents original research results and applications experience of the various

Overview: Moves the story of wind energy control up from the individual turbine to the level of the whole windfarm.Addresses the pressing need for reliable methods of integration of large-scale wind generation From the point of view of grid integration and operation, this monograph advances the subject of wind energy control from the individual-unit to the wind-farm level. The basic objectives and requirements for successful integration of wind energy with existing power grids are discussed, followed by an overview of the state of the art, proposed solutions and challenges yet to be resolved..

Overview: In 1997, the World Bank announced a strategy to help its borrowers combat corruption, despite earlier claims that work of this kin violated the Bank‘s non-political mandate. Despite many attempts to reshape corruption as an economic issue rather than a political one, the non-political mandate has never been satisfactorily addressed. Heather Marquette argues that the Bank should focus in its strengths and avoid the more controversial components of its anti-corruption programme, which threaten its credibility.978-1-349-43327-8978-1-4039-4373-6Series ISSN 2662-2483 Series E-ISSN 2662-24

Overview: Introduces a new analytical model, based on activity theory, making it possible to analyse learning through writing in student texts.Examines student trajectories as they learn to think critically thrThis book explores narrative imagination and emotion as resources for learning critical meta-reflection.

In do

Overview: Constructional morphology explains features of organisms from a constructional and functional point of view. By means of physical analysis it explains the operational aspects of organic structures - how they can perform the activities organisms are expected to fulfil in order to survive in their environment. Constructional morphology also explains options and constraints during the evolution determined by internal constructional needs, ontogenetic demands, inherited organizational preconditions and environmental clues.978-3-642-76158-4978-3-642-76156-0

Overview: This book is based on our two books, published in the USSR and translated in a number of other countries Conservation of living nature: problems and perspectives (1983) and The levels of conservation of living nature (1985). It differs from the vast majority of the numerous books on conservation and environment, which are mainly devoted either to specific problems of conservation of certain taxons, or to problems of conservation of prescribed regions, or to general issues of environmental conservation in toto, while the problems of the conservation of living nature are represented on

Overview: According to the World Health Report (2000 http:/ /www. who. int/whr), of the 55 million deaths worldwide in 1999, more than 16 million were secondary to car- diovascular complications. With the prospect of world population increasing from the current level of 6 billion to 9 billion by the middle of this century, the burden of cardiac disease is going to increase astronomically. Furthermore, scientists are being challenged not only to reduce mortality, but also to improve quality of life. Thus, more than ever, intellectuals from different disciplines including biology, sociology, inf
