He took the puck off me with eleven seconds left. Now he's on my team.Blaine "Blaze" Kovac is the best player in the conference and everybody knows it. He's got a father who only calls about scouts, an agent counting down to the draft, and one bad memory he can't skate away from — the freshman who beat him in the regional semifinal and said four words to him in the handshake line.Now that freshman just transferred in.Cole Rivers left his last school in the middle of...

My Love Story of 49-year married life with my Late Wife Razia Akhtar Alvi, the love of my life. She was a nurse and a midwife. She had genetic blood cancer. She had left side stroke and was handicapped for the last 20 years of her life. She lived for 83 years.

Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) is an emerging and extremely active research discipline which aims to quantitatively treat any uncertainty in applied models. The primary objective of Uncertainty Quantification in Variational Inequalities: Theory, Numerics, and Applications is to present a comprehensive treatment of UQ in variational inequalities and some of its generalizations emerging from various network, economic, and engineering models. Some of the developed techniques...

Set-valued optimization is a vibrant and expanding branch of mathematics that deals with optimization problems where the objective map and/or the constraints maps are set-valued maps acting between certain spaces. Since set-valued maps subsumes single valued maps, set-valued optimization provides an important extension and unification of the scalar as well as the vector optimization problems. Therefore this relatively new discipline has justifiably attracted a great deal of attention in re...

The Part 2 MRCOG is one of the most challenging postgraduate examinations in medicine and recent changes bring focus to more MCQs and evidence-based questions. Passing the exam requires not just 'knowledge' but mastery of examination technique. This book provides the unique opportunity not only to practice up-to-date MCQs extensively sourced from the RCOG's suggested reading material, but to consolidate knowledge through its concise notes accompanying the answers. Traditionally difficult t...

A compelling argument of how human health is adversely affected by our poor treatment of non-human animals. The author contents that in order to successfully confront the 21st Century's health challenges, we need to broaden the definition of the word 'public' in public health to include non-human animals.

Inverse problems of identifying parameters and initial/boundary conditions in deterministic and stochastic partial differential equations constitute a vibrant and emerging research area that has found numerous applications. A related problem of paramount importance is the optimal control problem for stochastic differential equations.This edited volume comprises invited contributions from world-renowned researchers in the subject of control and inverse problems. There are several co...

This book contains the latest advances in variational analysis and set / vector optimization, including uncertain optimization, optimal control and bilevel optimization. Recent developments concerning scalarization techniques, necessary and sufficient optimality conditions and duality statements are given. New numerical methods for efficiently solving set optimization problems are provided. Moreover, applications in economics, finance and risk theory are discussed.Summary

The book provides the first full length exploration of fuzzy computability. It describes the notion of fuzziness and present the foundation of computability theory. It then presents the various approaches to fuzzy computability. This text provides a glimpse into the different approaches in this area, which is important for researchers in order to have a clear view of the field. It contains a detailed literature review and the author includes all proofs to make the presentation accessible. ...

"In Missing Microbes, Martin Blaser sounds [an] alarm. He patiently and thoroughly builds a compelling case that the threat of antibiotic overuse goes far beyond resistant infections."— NatureRenowned microbiologist Dr. Martin J. Blaser invites us into the wilds of the human microbiome, where for hundreds of thousands of years bacterial and human cells have existed in a peaceful symbiosis that is responsible for the equilibrium and health of our bo...
