A System Engineer's Guide to Building an Earth Observation Camera
Building Earth Observation Cameras discusses the science and
technology of building an electro-optical imaging system for a
space platform from concept to space qualification and in-orbit
evaluation. The book provides a broad overview of various Earth
imaging systems with specific examples illustrating the design and
development issues that impacted the Indian Remote Sensing
Satellite (IRS) cameras, and is based on the actual experience of
the author, who was intimately involved with the development of
cameras for the IRS program.It equips imaging system project
managers, scholars, and researchers with the ability to look deeper
into the systems that they are developing, and arms application
scientists who use satellite imagery with a greater understanding
of the technical aspects and terminology used in defining the
performance of the image system. The text traces the historical
development of imaging systems, reviews the evolution of Earth
observation systems from a global perspective, and examines future
trends. This interdisciplinary work: Presents technical issues
associated with the design, fabrication, and characterization of
the camera Provides a narrow focus and end-to-end solutions to all
components involved in a successful camera-on-Earth observation
system Covers various stages including image formation, optics,
opto-mechanics, material choice, design tradeoffs, fabrication,
evaluation, and finally qualifying the system for space use
Building Earth Observation Cameras provides the tools needed to
enable readers to better understand the concepts and challenges
involved in building space-based Earth observation systems.

The all-in-one surgical technology review you've been waiting for
is finally here! Elsevier's Surgical Technology Exam Review
combines comprehensive content review, worktext practice, and
customizable simulated testing options to give you the 360-degree
preparation needed for success on the CST exam. Content chapters
offer a thorough review of the CST exam focus areas - including
medical terminology, basic science, asepsis, surgical technique,
and surgical procedures - all in a helpful outline format. Each
chapter also features full-color images and illustrations, review
questions with rationales, and surgical concept maps., A sample
exam at the end of the book provides a simulated test-day
experience. The realistic preparation continues online with a
testing engine that lets you access exam questions by category or
create custom-generated exams that match the format of the CST
exam. If you're looking to pass the CST and be fully prepared for
clinical practice, this is the one Surgical Technology review book
that you can't afford to be without! UNIQUE! All-in-one resource
incorporates content discussions, worktext practice, review
questions, and six full practice exams to fully prepare users for
the certification exam. UNIQUE! Surgical concept maps in the
worktext help emphasize the critical thinking skills needed for
clinical success by combining relevant medical terminology,
anatomy, pathophysiology, microbiology, and pharmacology for each
surgical procedure and helping users learn how to apply that
foundational knowledge to the operating room. Content chapters
offer a thorough review of the CST exam focus areas - including
medical terminology, basic science, asepsis, surgical technique,
and surgical procedures - all in an outline format. National Board
format utilizes the exam blueprint for the National Board of
Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting's CST exam to organize
content and practice exams. Six practice exams (each with 175
questions) help users improve familiarity with answering exam-style
questions and build test-taking confidence. Realistic testing
experience utilizes an online, computer-based testing environment
and timing function to mimic the actual testing experience.
Practice exam customization enables users to practice specific CST
blueprint categories in practice mode or use an auto-generator for
full CST-style tests in exam mode. Answer keys and rationales for
each chapter review question and practice test question help users
fully comprehend the information being asked and why a specific
choice is best. UNIQUE! Full-color photos and illustrations offer
vivid images of instruments, equipment, clinical situations,
concept maps, and basic science to help improve comprehension.
Chapter review questions allow users to test their level of
comprehension before moving onto the next chapter and provide
practice for the simulated exams.

Using selections by American, British, French, German, Russian,
Scandinavian, Spanish, Portuguese, and South American critics and
authors, Professor Becker illustrates how realism arose as a
reaction to romanticism, and how the practitioners of realism
developed conflicting ideas about the means they should use and the
ends toward which they should strive. The selections are concerned
mainly with prose, since, according to the author, prose fiction
has been the major vehicle of realism. Originally published in
1963. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
