Book excerpt: Stony Man Eighty miles outside the nation's capital, the President's covert defense unit has its orders: stop terror at its source. From the cyber wizards at the helm to the commandos on the ground, the warriors of Stony Man are united by an unbreakable bond of honor and courage, where ultimate sacrifice is the price sometimes paid—but never in vain. Bug Spheres A NATO special ops aircraft carrying a top-secret prototype goes down near the French-German border. In St. Louis, a rogue scientist unleashes an experimental pathogen on innocent victims. Stony Man targets the disturbing intel and launches an offensive that stretches from Munich to America's heartland. It's a worst-case scenario linking a radical Middle Eastern group with Europe's most sophisticated smugglers, putting stolen tech into enemy hands—along with a killer virus manufactured for mass destruction.
Download or read book The Casimir Effect In Critical Systems written by Michael Krech and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1994-07-26 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The well-known Casimir effect has a direct analogue in systems near critical or multicritical points. Critical fluctuations in systems confined to finite geometries lead to attractive or repulsive forces between system boundaries. These forces influence the formation of wetting layers of liquid 4He or binary liquid mixtures near critical points in these fluids. With the aid of recently developed versions of the atomic force microscope, these forces appear to be directly measurable. The book contains an introduction to the physics of critical phenomena and reviews the most recent developments in the theory of finite-size scaling. A detailed discussion of the Casimir effect and related questions follows. The analysis of quantitative effects on the specific heat of critical films, the formation of wetting layers, and force measurements finish the presentation. This is perhaps the first book on the critical Casimir effect.

Download or read book Critical Appraisal of Medical Literature written by David Marchevsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical Appraisal of Medical Literature provides a step-by-step approach to help the reader reach a good level of proficiency in systematic critical appraisal of medical information. To this end, the book covers all the elements that are necessary to develop these skills and is a comprehensive guide to the subject. The book is written in three parts. The first part focuses on the logical justification and the validity of medical information. Its chapters present basic working definitions and discussions on relevant basic topics of statistics and epidemiology. The second part focuses on the complementary aspects of critique, common study designs and articles whose main topics are treatment, diagnosis, prognosis, aetiology, reviews, medical guidelines, audit, and qualitative research. The third part presents some statistical techniques that are commonly used in published articles. Critical Appraisal of Medical Literature is intended for those interested in developing critical appraisal skills such as psychiatric trainees preparing for the Critical Review Paper of the MRCPsych Examination in the UK, other practitioners as part of their preparation for examinations, and medical professionals and students as part of their introduction to aspects of systematic critical appraisal of medical information.
Download or read book The Critical Thinking Effect written by Thinknetic and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-05 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you keep making mistakes and just can't seem to reach that next level... Then keep reading Did you know that if you didn't listen to Mozart as a child, you might be 8-10 IQ points dumber than you were supposed to be? Okay, not really. But during the 1990s, a generation of children was forced by their parents to listen to Mozart...Because a study found it made children smarter. However, study after study couldn't replicate those results later. Eventually, researchers concluded that listening to ANYTHING while working resulted in higher intelligence testing. How come did the idea become established as fact? Because people fail to think critically. When your team, your boss, or your company depends on you to make the correct decision time and time again... you literally can't afford to be wrong. It could cost a client money. It could cost your company that client. It could cost you your job. The good news is you have the key to fix your problems. It's a skill you just need to get better at using it. That's why we wrote The Critical Thinking Effect, to take you from good to great. It's packed with examples, exercises, and actionable steps to get you thinking clearer - today. Here's just a smattering of what you'll find inside: How to "ethically brainwash" your subordinates - see how a manager employed critical thinking to get his team to do a COMPLETE 180, on a project they SWORE they'd never work on! How to spot lies, sift through deceptions, and have the confidence to know you've made the best decision possible. How to use "X-Ray vision" on social media and news to tell fact from fiction Why you shouldn't name your child Wolfgang - the dangers of misinterpreting data too literally How failure to think critically caused an experienced detective to miss a literal murder and what we need to learn from that real story The 10 most common cognitive fallacies and traps, listed by a Cambridge Ph.D. - how many are you committing on a daily basis? How to have better relationships with your loved ones by recognizing their BS (and your own) What dueling ice cream shops can teach you about lack of due diligence ...and much, much more! If you didn't listen to Mozart when you were in diapers, the good news is you've still got a chance to develop critical thinking ability. But if you just can't break through to that next level in life...You won't magically develop the ability to make better decisions. Do you want to stop second-guessing yourself, make better decisions under fire, and be the rockstar of your team? Then supercharge your brain and get to that next level ASAP.

Book excerpt: The Critical Companion to Contemporary Marxism is an international and interdisciplinary volume which aims to provide a thorough and precise panorama of recent developments in Marxist theory in the US, Europe, Asia and beyond. Drawing on the work of thirty of the most authoritative scholars, the Companion spans all the humanities and social sciences, with particular emphasis on philosophy. The work is divided into three parts: 'General Trends', which provides a broad intellectual and historical context; 'Currents', which tracks the trajectories of twenty specific currents or disciplinary fields; and 'Figures', which examines in detail the work of fifteen key actors of Marxist or para-Marxist theory (Adorno, Althusser, Badiou, Benjamin, Bhaskar, Bourdieu, Deleuze, Derrida, Foucault, Gramsci, Habermas, Jameson, Lefebvre, Uno, Williams). The Companion is set to be unsurpassed for many years, in breadth and depth, as the definitive guide to contemporary Marxism.

Download or read book Multiple Stressors written by S. M. Swanson and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2004-07-31 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a pressing need for developing and testing a general set of theories in order to provide a confident basis for prediction of multiple stressor effects. Confident prediction is central to confident decision making in water pollution control. Consequently, WERF commissioned this study, which has as its goal to provide a study design based on good science that helps establish a general, conceptual approach to multiple stressors. The objectives addressed in this report are: (1) review and critique the existing body of knowledge for multiple stressors; (2) develop a searchable, annotated bibliography of multiple stressor research; and, (3) identify gaps in the body of knowledge. A rigorous, theoretical basis for the prediction of multiple stressor effects could not be developed from the literature on experimental studies of multiple stressor effects in aquatic ecosystems. Despite the wealth of observational data, the existence of several useful tools for interpretation of cause/effect relationships (including formal Stressor Identification methods), and the studies reviewed in this report, there are no tools that allow a confident, a priori, prediction of ecosystem response to multiple stressors. The current literature provides, at best, a series of site-specific glimpses of the response of ecological communities and ecosystems to multiple stressors. There is seldom, if ever, any reference to a more generalized model of multiple stressor effects apart from the discussion of the expectations regarding additivity versus synergism. Many articles that purport to be multiple stressor studies do not go beyond an inventory of the various stresses and upsets affecting the ecosystem, without attempting to assess the interactions among them.
