Vibrations and Waves

Vibrations and Waves

The M. I. T. Introductory Physics Series is the result of a program of careful study planning and development that began in 1960. The Education Research Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (formerly the Science Teaching Center) was established to study the process of instruction aids thereto and the learning process itself with special reference to science teaching at the university level. Generous support from a number of foundations provided the means for assembling and maintaining an experienced staff to co-operate with members of the Institute's Physics Department in the examination improvement and development of physics curriculum materials for students planning careers in the sciences. After careful analysis of objectives and the problems involved preliminary versions of textbooks were prepared tested through classroom use at M. I. T. and other institutions re-evaluated rewritten and tried again. Only then were the final manuscripts undertaken. | Vibrations and Waves

The Reflective Practitioner How Professionals Think in Action

The Reflective Practitioner How Professionals Think in Action

A leading M. I. T. social scientist and consultant examines five professions - engineering architecture management psychotherapy and town planning - to show how professionals really go about solving problems. The best professionals Donald Schön maintains know more than they can put into words. To meet the challenges of their work they rely less on formulas learned in graduate school than on the kind of improvisation learned in practice. This unarticulated largely unexamined process is the subject of Schön's provocatively original book an effort to show precisely how 'reflection-in-action' works and how this vital creativity might be fostered in future professionals. | The Reflective Practitioner How Professionals Think in Action

Why String Theory?

Why String Theory?

Physics World's 'Book of the Year' for 2016 An Entertaining and Enlightening Guide to the Who What and Why of String Theory now also available in an updated reflowable electronic format compatible with mobile devices and e-readers. During the last 50 years numerous physicists have tried to unravel the secrets of string theory. Yet why do these scientists work on a theory lacking experimental confirmation? Why String Theory? provides the answer offering a highly readable and accessible panorama of the who what and why of this large aspect of modern theoretical physics. The author a theoretical physics professor at the University of Oxford and a leading string theorist explains what string theory is and where it originated. He describes how string theory fits into physics and why so many physicists and mathematicians find it appealing when working on topics from M-theory to monsters and from cosmology to superconductors.

Drug Design A Conceptual Overview

Drug Design A Conceptual Overview

The newer research areas in pharmaceutical sciences particularly molecular modeling and simulations prompted a more efficient drug discovery process. Informatics integrated with pharmaceutical sciences (cheminformatics and bioinformatics) became an essential component of drug research. Drug informatics such as genomics and proteomics assists in the Rational Drug Design (RDD). This emerging discipline is known as “Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD) which has profound application in RDD. The advanced and adequate practice in drug design informatics is essential for pharmacy graduates. Hence a companion for acquiring knowledge on these concepts is vital. The students of B. Pharmacy M. Pharmacy (Pharmaceutical Chemistry Pharmacology and Pharmaceutics) biotechnology biomedical engineering and other interdisciplinary fields may find this book as a reference guide. The salient features of this book are: • Systematic and simple approach • Emphasis on traditional and modern drug design strategies • Comprehensive coverage for the current advances in the drug design • Experimental section to ensure hands-on-experience Note: T& F does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India Pakistan Nepal Bhutan Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. | Drug Design A Conceptual Overview

The Invisible Sex Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory

The Invisible Sex Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory

Shaped by cartoons and museum dioramas our vision of Paleolithic times tends to feature fur-clad male hunters fearlessly attacking mammoths while timid women hover fearfully behind a boulder. Recent archaeological research has shown that this vision bears little relation to reality. J. M. Adovasio and Olga Soffer two of the world's leading experts on perishable artifacts such as basketry cordage and weaving present an exciting new look at prehistory. With science writer Jake Page they argue that women invented all kinds of critical materials including the clothing necessary for life in colder climates the ropes used to make rafts that enabled long-distance travel by water and nets used for communal hunting. Even more important women played a central role in the development of language and social life in short in our becoming human. In this eye-opening book a new story about women in prehistory emerges with provocative implications for our assumptions about gender today. | The Invisible Sex Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory
