Book Description
A lack of trust in online-transactions has been described as one of the most important obstacles for the development of e-business. Despite numerous activities in the fields of law and security, users have not yet gained the trust necessary for conducting e-business. This requires a new approach which is able to explain the importance and function of trust in the digital world. This book presents a new model of digital trust that is complemented by articles on law, security, business models and trust building signals. The book is published in a mixed German/English edition and is the first international reader covering trust and e-business from a multi-disciplinary approach.

Book Description
With limited water resources to divert for agriculture, innovations aimed at increasing efficient use of irrigation water must be developed. Among the means to survive the consequences of water scarcity and yet to sustain high crop production under irrigated agriculture with decreasing share of water, deficient irrigation programs are highly valued and their adoption is widely promoted. However, to ensure that the same level of crop yields as in full irrigation can still be achieved with deficient irrigation, experience regarding crop yield response to deficient irrigation programs must be gained. This book discusses general concept and management issues of deficient irrigation practices, covering a wide range of field crops including cotton, maize, soybean, wheat, sugar cane, and the like, based on five years of field research implemented in fourteen different countries, in Latin America, Africa, Europe and Asia. Additionally, guidelines are given for experimental methodology and data analysis for evaluating crop yield response to deficient irrigation. Experimental data, discussions and cited references will be an asset not only to field irrigation engineers but also to research scientists including soil and irrigation scientists and agronomists, for whom the book would be an invaluable reference source.

Book Description
Aquatic Invertebrate Cell Culture is a very new field which has major applications in Aquaculture, Ecotoxicology and Pathology. In essence it is realised that pathogens behave differently in host cells than the impression gained from growth on agar plates. Another major application of invertebrate cell culture is an understanding of mechanisms involved in cellular and molecular responses to environmental change. This book aims to consider all relevant advances for the development of aquatic invertebrate cell culture.

Book Description
Techniques of solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy are constantly being extended to a more diverse range of materials, pressing into service an ever-expanding range of nuclides including some previously considered too intractable to provide usable results. At the same time, new developments in both hardware and software are being introduced and refined. This book covers the most important of these new developments.
With sections addressed to non-specialist researchers (providing accessible answers to the most common questions about the theory and practice of NMR asked by novices) as well as a more specialised and up-to-date treatment of the most important areas of inorganic materials research to which NMR has application, this book should be useful to NMR users whatever their level of expertise and whatever inorganic materials they wish to study.

Book Description
Who would have guessed that physics would become the hottest topic on Broadway? Handy Physics is just the book for anyone trying to get a handle on what is a difficult but extremely trendy science and is sure to help readers become more socially successful. What, really, does E=MC2 mean? More fun than a slide rule, Handy Physics tackles the big issues: Gravity. Magnetism. Matter. Sound. Light. And the smaller topics, like why do cats always land on their feet? Why don't birds or squirrels on power lines get electrocuted? Only Handy Physics combines elementary theory with heartwarming tales of small animals. For everyone who ever wondered how a light bulb works, The Handy Physics Answer Book examines more than 825 basic questions about physics and physicists, ranging from everyday life applications to the latest explorations in subatomic physics. The Handy Physics Answer Book disposes with the mathematical explanations and deep coma often associated with physics and instead takes a more conceptual approach – written in everyday English by yet another teacher. Other great stuff includes a list of the Nobel Prize winners in physics and suggestions for further reading. Ideal for students, science readers, theatergoers, and anyone reckoning with the essential questions about the universe we dwell within, Handy Physics is a friendly guide to the most significant scientific theories and discoveries of our time. And, we promise, no chalkboards.
Customer Reviews:
Embarrassing Errors.......2007-07-04
This book is good for a young kid who wants to understand basic physics. However, this book contains some embarrassing errors. In the nuclear weapons section, the authors describes the first atomic bomb (the one that was detonated over Hiroshima) as "Fat Man" and the 2nd atomic bomb (another one that was dropped to Nagasaki) as "Little Boy." The author got it wrong. The truth is the 1st atomic bomb was "Little Boy" and the 2nd one "Fat Man."
I wonder how many kids who read this book later somehow found the author's mistake.
I just hope that other sections don't contain errors.
This is one of the most helpful science books that I have ever read!.......2005-09-15
I am a high school student interested in pursuing physics as a career. Since I participate in many clubs and classes regarding science, I find myself needing to do a lot of studying. However, after reading this book, I realized that I had been able to cover enough information to impress my team mates and keep my A in physics! This book covers everything: from motion and forces to sound, history to light, modern physics to magnetism, and heat to electricity. It is easy to read and written as though it is a friend who is simply informing you, not a genius who's lecturing you! Perfect for the beginning student interested in learning about the world around them, or even the intermediate or advanced one who is looking for some interesting facts and a handy reference guide. I recommend this book 100%!
General Physics Questions & Answers.......2005-05-08
This book has the answers to many questions that you or your family may have about physics. Even if you do not have a specific question, just reading the book is both fun and educational. For example:
Why is the Earth magnetized?
What is the tallest building in the world?
What do AM and FM mean and how do they differ?
What is the longest bridge in the world?
How does the human eye see?
OK for Children.......2003-06-18
This book might serve the need of elementary school children, but anyone with an introduction to physics will find the book to be of little use. There are hundreds of short (one paragraph) responses to all sorts of questions, some of them not much related to physics. At times the author wants to predict the future: What does the future hold for fusion? At times the author answers a question other than the one asked: Why do monkeys have tails? (The response is on the physical function of tails.)
Also there is little order to the text other than broad chapter headings. So if you have a question, the book provides little help in finding the answer.
Overall, a weak piece of bathroom reading.
Handy. Physics. Answers........2002-05-23
What do Newton, Einstein, and "a typical kindergartner have in common? Aside from playing with their food and bad hair, they demonstrate a unique ability to ask deceptively simple questions..."
If you are wondering how cosmic inflation theory works, read cosmologist George Smoot's "Wrinkles in Time." If you are wondering about the weakness of perturbation theories or the strength of superstring theory, read theoretical physicist Brian Greene's "The Elegant Universe." If you want to know what quantum tunneling is, look it up in physicist John Gribbins' "Q is for Quantum." But --
If your "how does that work" questions are less abstract, perhaps like: why is the doorknob opposite the hinges on a door (?) or why is the sky blue (?) or -- for something slightly more advanced -- how might an electron be pushed as close as possible to light-speed (?), then pick up a copy of Gundersen's "Handy Physics Answer Book." A wonderful resource, the book is exactly what the title suggests. Interesting `everyday' questions are posed, the kind of questions a young child might ask, but which most adults would struggle to answer. The answers follow, always in clear and concise language. It will be money well spent, Gundersen, a high school physics teacher, covers a lot of ground, and answers a lot of questions.
Product Description
What do Sir Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and a typical kindergartner have in common? Aside from playing with their food and bad hair, they demonstrate a unique ability to ask deceptively simple questions: Why do objects fall? Why do monkeys have tails? What is the lowest possible temperature? No chalkboards... we promise! Until now the problem with understanding physics has always been in the answers. Fortunately, you don't need to be a genius (or a parent) to gain a fundamental understanding of physics, thanks to The Handy Physics Answer Book. Here you'll find more than 800 deceptively simple questions accompanied by a similar number of relatively simple answers. (Okay, keep your pocket protector in place - there's plenty here to challenge even the most avid amateur physicist.) Gravity... magnetism... matter... light - the whole shebang - it's a piece of cosmic cake with The Handy Physics Answer Book!
