In recent years there has been a growth in interest in studying the heart from the perspective of the physical sciences: mechanics, fluid flow, electromechanics. This volume is the result of a workshop held in July 1989 at the Institute for Nonlinear Sciences at the University of California at San Diego that brought together scientists and clinicians with graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who shared an interest in the heart. The chapters were prepared by the invited speakers as didactic reviews of their subjects but also include the structure, mechanical properties, and function of the heart and the myocardium, electrical activity of the heart and myocardium, and mathematical models of heart function.

The World of Bede (Hardcover, Revised): Peter Hunter Blair The World of Bede (Hardcover, Revised)
Peter Hunter Blair; Foreword by Michael Lapidge
R2,996 Discovery Miles 29 960 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

An engaging and accessible introduction to the writings and intellectual development of the Venerable Bede (d.735), this book (originally published in 1970) is available again for the enjoyment of all those interested in the early medieval world. With an updated preface and supplementary bibliography by Michael Lapidge, the book is based almost entirely on primary sources, particularly Bede's own writings. The book surveys the fragmented state of Britain after the Anglo-Saxon conquests, tracing the - sometimes faltering - rebirth of Christianity from the time of St. Augustine through to the glories of the golden age of Northumbria in the eighth century. What was Bede's contribution to the growth of scholarship? Why is his famous Ecclesiastical History of the English Church and People still so highly regarded? How did Bede see his own age? What traditions most influenced him? Peter Hunter Blair answers all these questions, assessing Bede sympatheticaly in all the fields in which he was active, as teacher, orthographer, moral philospher, grammarian, theologian, natural scientist and, above all, as our first modern historian.

Time of The Spider (Paperback): Peter Hunter Time of The Spider (Paperback)
Peter Hunter
R519 Discovery Miles 5 190 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

I was inspired to persevere with this book by the following reason given by a leading publisher for rejecting it: 'We cannot regard a story containing political corruption plausible now that Mr Blair and Mr Brown are in charge' An interesting comment in an era when members of parliament jailed for corruption - and are fiddling their expenses with impunity - none trusted - all treated with contempt. Industrial espionage, corrupt politicians - this fast moving thriller has a unique plot line - interest and excitement on every page - serving to make this a gripping story of our times. 'Spine chilling - punchy and fast moving - based on real places and events - corrupt leaders and greedy entrepreneurs and it's all becoming too real.'

Computational Biomedicine (Paperback): Peter Coveney, Vanessa Diaz-Zuccarini, Peter Hunter, Marco Viceconti Computational Biomedicine (Paperback)

By the end of the twenty-first century, computer-based modelling and simulation will be integral to the way clinical decisions are taken. Drugs will be selected on the basis of an individual patient's "digital profile", while clinical treatments will be tailor-made for the individual in question. For this to come to pass, however, we must prepare for a future where we can simulate our own bodies with precision, drawing upon remarkable advances in information technology, computer, mathematical, physical and engineering science, data management, and high performance computing. Computational Biomedicine lays the foundations for a new approach to the subject - one that unifies the different strands of a broad-ranging subject, and demonstrates how computational biomedicine is a powerful tool with the potential to revolutionise our understanding of the human body, and the therapeutic strategies available to maintain and protect it. Written by a team of world-leading experts in the field, it explores the modelling of physiological systems at different scales - cells, tissues, organs - before considering the issues around biomedical computing, and data collection and analysis. It emphasises how a theoretical understanding of computational biomedicine translates into practice, with illustrative examples and case studies used throughout. Computational Biomedicine is the perfect introduction to the subject for anyone new to the field, from student to researcher. Online Resource Centre The Online Resource Centre to accompany Computational Biomedicine features figures from the book in electronic format, for download by registered adopters.
