Composites is designed to be of value to working engineers. Its orientation is practical rather than theoretical, although researchers and students will also find it to be a substantial source of worthwhile information. The 998 pages in this reference book are packed with real-life, how-to-do-it information aimed at solving problems. There are 13 major sections containing 161 separate articles. The information is clear and concise, yet complete. Ranging across a broad area of useful information about structural composites for engineering applications, Composites covers the subject completely and in depth. First constituent materials - the fibres and matrix materials of which composites are m...

This series is world-renowned as the leading compilation of current reviews of this vast field. Internationally acclaimed for more than forty years, The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Biology, founded by the late Professor R.H.F. Manske, continues to provide outstanding coverage of this rapidly expanding field. Each volume provides, through its distinguished authors, up-to-date and detailed coverage of particular classes or sources of alkaloids.

Beyond the Mind-Body Dualism: Psychoanalysis and the Human Body is the result of the proceedings of the The 6th Delphi International Psychoanalytical Symposium, held in Greece. The Symposium gathered many contemporary psychoanalysts and neuroscientists to deal with the latest scientific approaches and correlations between the two sciences. Some of the subjects which were developed during the Symposium are: Psychoanalytic affect theory in the light of neurobiological findings, The Body and the Sense of Reality, The Body and the World, Experience-dependent brain plasticity, A neuroscience perspective on transference, Differentiation, object relation and microprocesses of identification through the mother-infant bodily relationship, A neurobiological perspective on mentalizing and internal object relations in trauma¬tized borderline patients. This book will be interesting to psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, child psychiatrists, psychotherapists, psycho¬logists, neurobiologists and students alike.

The articles also encompass vast range of clinical and basic research field of atherosclerosis, including epidemiology, lipoprotein metabolism, pharmacology, clinical trials, nutrition, pathogenesis, diagnosis and prevention as well as its treatment.
There are many potent drugs available for many diseases of the brain (e.g. Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke, Brain tumors) The effectiviness however is not optimal since barriers in the brain prevent the drugs from reaching the brain in sufficient therapeutic concentrations (e.g. the blood-brain barrier and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier). Drug Transport(ers) and the Diseased Brain contains the papers of a timely symposium held in Spain between 6 and 9 October 2004, which sets out not only the point of view of the academic researcher and the clinician, but also from the pharmaceutical industrial on how to overcome these barriers and how to treat brain diseases effectively. Blood-brain barrier and blood-cerebrospinal fluid-barrier drug transport; Drug targeting to the brain; Drug transporters at barriers in the brain
