Databasing the Brain: From Data to Knowledge (Neuroinformatics)
Date: Apr 8, 2005
Author: Steven H. Koslow, Shankar Subramaniam
Expertly edited by two pioneers in this burgeoning field, this book covers both basic principles and specific applications across a range of problems in brain research. It truly integrates neuroscience with informatics, providing a means for understanding the new analytical tools and models of neuronal functions now being developed. Each chapter offers practical guidance for applying this knowledge to current research, enhancing electronic collaborations, and formulating hypotheses. Prize or...

Primer on MR Imaging of the Abdomen and Pelvis
Date: Mar 24, 2005
Author: Diego R. Martin, Michele A. Brown, Richard C. Semelka
This primer provides a concise, methodological approach to abdominal MR imaging techniques. It offers the user an invaluable pictorial and textual guide to typical features of the most commonly seen entities encountered by the clinician. The authors place an emphasis on a pattern recognition approach, thereby focusing on clinical-pathologic correlation (i.e., the morphological characteristics and pathologic criteria necessary to diagnose disease), as opposed to disease epidemiology.

Structural Identification of Organic Compounds with Spectroscopic Techniques
Date: Mar 8, 2005
Author: Yong-Cheng Ning, Richard R. Ernst
Clearly structured, easy to read and optimal to understand, this extensive compendium fills the gap between textbooks devoted to either spectra interpretation or basic physical principles. The original Chinese editions have already sold over 18,500 copies, and the material is taken from the latest literature from around the world, plus technical information provided by the manufacturers of spectroscopic instruments. Alongside basic methods, Professor Ning presents up-to-date developments in NMR, MS, IR and...

An Introduction to the Optical Spectroscopy of Inorganic Solids
Date: Feb 18, 2005
Author: Jose Solé, Luisa Bausa, Daniel Jaque
This practical guide to spectroscopy and inorganic materials meets the demand from academia and the science community for an introductory text that introduces the different optical spectroscopic techniques, used in many laboratories, for material characterisation. Treats the most basic aspects to be introduced into the field of optical spectroscopy of inorganic materials, enabling a student to interpret simple optical (absorption, reflectivity, emission and scattering) spectra Contains simple,...

Additives in Polymers: Industrial Analysis and Applications
Date: Feb 4, 2005
Author: Jan C. J. Bart
This industrially relevant resource covers all established and emerging analytical methods for the deformulation of polymeric materials, with emphasis on the non-polymeric components. Each technique is evaluated on its technical and industrial merits. Emphasis is on understanding (principles and characteristics) and industrial applicability. Extensively illustrated throughout with over 200 figures, 400 tables, and 3,000 references.

Environmental Toxicity Testing
Date: Jan 24, 2005
Author: Clive Thompson, Kirit Wadhia, Andreas Loibner
As an integral component of environmental policy, it has become essential to regulate and monitor toxic substances. Past emphasis has been primarily on analytical approaches to the detection of specific, targeted contaminants, thus allowing chemical characterisation. However, toxicity testing or biological assessment is necessary for ecotoxicological evaluation, and this offers marked benefits and advantages that complement chemical analysis.Key issues to be addressed include identification of pertinent...

Quantitative MRI of the Brain: Measuring Changes Caused by Disease
Date: Dec 24, 2004
Author: Paul Tofts
2004 BMA Medical Book Competition Winner (Radiology category) “This is an exciting book, with a new approach to use of the MRI scanner. It bridges the gap between clinical research and general neuro-radiological practice. It is accessible to the clinical radiologist, and yet thorough in its treatment of the underlying physics and of the science of measurement. It is likely to become a classic.” British Medical Association This indispensable 'how to' manual of quantitative MR is essential...

Sample Preparation for Hyphenated Analytical Techniques
Date: Sep 27, 2004
Author: Jack Rosenfeld
Linking “standard” but often mutually incompatible analytical techniques – so called hyphenation – generally leads to enhanced analytical performance, so hyphenated techniques are widely used in areas where samples are presented in complex matrices, eg environmental, pharmaceutical and biochemical analysis. With these hyphenated techniques, sample preparation is often the most time-consuming step in analysis, particularly where compounds are present in low concentration, and it has...
Read MoreBrain Energetics and Neuronal Activity: Applications to fMRI and Medicine
Date: Mar 30, 2004
Author: Robert G. Shulman, Douglas L. Rothman
This book is unique in linking in vivo 13C NMR measurements of neuronal activity and energetics with applications to functional imaging and certain disease states It provides a fundamental neurochemical explanation of brain activity applicable to functional imaging, theories of neuronal activity and disease states, e.g. epilepsy, psychiatric diseases and developmental disorders. Novel and potentially controversial Will inspire future research directions

Infrared and Raman Characteristic Group Frequencies: Tables and Charts, 3rd Edition
Date: Feb 6, 2004
Author: George Socrates
The third edition of this highly successful manual is not only a revised text but has been extended to meet the interpretive needs of Raman users as well as those working in the IR region. The result is a uniquely practical, comprehensive and detailed source for spectral interpretation. Combining in one volume, the correlation charts and tables for spectral interpretation for these two complementary techniques, this book will be of great benefit to those using or considering either technique. In addition...
