This third edition includes an updated and expanded introduction and a significant expansion of the number of documents. The Arab-Israeli Conflict: • includes an extensive introductory chapter which presents the history of the conflict and covers events from the nineteenth century to the present day • presents 120 of the most important and widely cited documents in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in an edited form to highlight key elements • incorporates a number of pedagogical aids, including the (edited) original documents, maps, and boxed sections that offer greater explanation of detailed topics • presents “both sides� of the argument, allowing students to understand both the Israeli and the Palestinian positions on the issues This important textbook is an essential aid for courses on the Arab-Israeli conflict and the Middle East peace process and will be an invaluable reference tool for all students of political science, Middle East studies, and history.

A leading expert answers your questions about how to live to your fullest with COPD. Significant lung damage from smoking, exposure in some jobs, or even diseases such as AIDS and tuberculosis can lead to COPD. Having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can leave you feeling short of breath, sometimes reluctant to go shopping or for a walk because you are afraid of more difficulties. You may have wheezing, tightness in the chest, or frequent coughing. Although you see a doctor for your COPD, you often have questions and need answers. In this concise and practical guide, leading medical expert Donald A. Mahler answers some of the most pressing questions that he has been asked over 30 years of seeing patients with COPD, including * Why am I short of breath? * What medications can treat my COPD? * Can surgery improve COPD? * What are flare-ups-and how can I prevent them? * How can I stop smoking? * What should I do if my breathing isn't getting better? * Can exercise help? If so, which exercises are the most beneficial? * What's the best way to prevent lung infections? * How does COVID-19 affect COPD? * How can I travel with oxygen? * Can I be sexually active with COPD? and much more. Each chapter includes a patient vignette and key points. Tables and boxes offering helpful tips are included throughout. Providing up-to-date, evidence-based content that covers more than just medications, COPD gives you the tools you need to keep active-and thrive.

The authors examine how health governance is being transformed amid globalization, characterized by the emergence of new actors and institutions, and the interplay of competing ideas about global health. They explore how this has affected the governance of specific health issues and how it relates to global governance more broadly.

Data fusion or information fusion are names which have been primarily assigned to military-oriented problems. In military applications, typical data fusion problems are: multisensor, multitarget detection, object identification, tracking, threat assessment, mission assessment and mission planning, among many others. However, it is clear that the basic underlying concepts underlying such fusion procedures can often be used in nonmilitary applications as well. The purpose of this book is twofold: First, to point out present gaps in the way data fusion problems are conceptually treated. Second, to address this issue by exhibiting mathematical tools which treat combination of evidence in the presence of uncertainty in a more systematic and comprehensive way. These techniques are based essentially on two novel ideas relating to probability theory: the newly developed fields of random set theory and conditional and relational event algebra. This volume is intended to be both an update on research progress on data fusion and an introduction to potentially powerful new techniques: fuzzy logic, random set theory, and conditional and relational event algebra. Audience: This volume can be used as a reference book for researchers and practitioners in data fusion or expert systems theory, or for graduate students as text for a research seminar or graduate level course.
