Where Medicine Went Wrong
Author: Bruce J. West
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9812773096
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
The field of solid state ionics deals with ionically conducting materials in the solid state and numerous devices based on such materials. Solid state ionic materials cover a wide spectrum, ranging from inorganic crystalline and polycrystalline solids, ceramics, glasses, polymers, composites and nano-scale materials. A large number of Scientists in Asia are engaged in research in solid state ionic materials and devices and since 1988. The Asian Society for solid state ionics has played a key role in organizing a series of bi-ennial conferences on solid state ionics in different Asian countries. The contributions in this volume were presented at the 10th conference in the series organized by the Postgraduate Institute of Science (PGIS) and the Faculty of Science, University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka, which coincided with the 10th Anniversary of the Postgraduate Institute of Science (PGIS). The topics cover solid state ionic materials as well as such devices as solid state batteries, fuel cells, sensors, and electrochromic devices. The aspects covered include theoretical studies and modeling, experimental techniques, materials synthesis and characterization, device fabrication and characterization.

Nobel Lectures in Chemistry (2006-2010)
Author: Bengt Nordén
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
ISBN: 9789814630177
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Mentioned as the second prize area in his will, Chemistry was the most important science for Alfred Nobel's own work. The development of Nobel's inventions as well as the industrial processes he employed were based upon chemical knowledge. This volume is a collection of the Nobel lectures delivered by the prizewinners, together with their biographies and the presentation speeches for the period 2006 2010. Each Nobel lecture is based on the work for which the laureate was awarded the prize. List of prizewinners and their award citations: (2006) Roger D Kornberg for his studies of the molecular basis of eukaryotic transcription; (2007) Gerhard Ertl for his studies of chemical processes on solid surfaces; (2008) Osamu Shimomura, Martin Chalfie and Roger Y Tsien for the discovery and development of the green fluorescent protein, GFP; (2009) Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, Thomas A Steitz and Ada E Yonath for studies of the structure and function of the ribosome; (2010) Richard F Heck, Ei-ichi Negishi and Akira Suzuki for palladium-catalyzed cross couplings in organic synthesis.

A Clinical Approach to Medicine
Author: Yong Yau Ong
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789812389268
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 1626
Book Description
In this new edition of A Clinical Approach to Medicine, the editor has assembled a panel of leading clinicians and researchers, and reorganized the material in the key areas of medicine, cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology, neurology, oncology, rheumatology, renal medicine and respiratory medicine. This book is unique -- it reflects the experience of leading experts on patterns of disease in the Asia-Pacific region. There are several other similar books, but those are by authors from the West and therefore offer a different perspective. The book also includes discussions on genetic diseases, infection and antimicrobial resistance to antibiotics, highlighting local incidences and statistics. Each chapter starts with the basic concepts of a particular topic and gradually develops the theme to present the state of the art in the topic. With its focus on practices unique to Asia-Pacific, this book is a must for the student, practicing clinician and research scientist interestedin the latest developments in this part of the world.
