Описание: This is a new account, of how, in the early 1900s, the French-born surgeon Alexis Carrel (1873-1944) set the groundwork for the later success in human organ transplantation, and gained America`s first Nobel Prize in 1912.
While his early childhood was unimpressive, Einstein later earned the respect of the entire world and won the coveted Nobel Prize. His name is the most revered in physics. Even though he was a well-respected genius, Einstein mingled freely among ordinary folk, just as easily as he did scholars and politicians. And while Einstein had a great sense of humor, he was also a bit reckless in the way he led his personal life.
To truly appreciate this brilliant scientist, who, at the age of 26, wrote the scholarly articles that fundamentally altered the foundation of physics, it is first important to look at his background and the environment in which he grew up in. Interestingly, while Einstein's performance in math and physics was outstanding, he was not the only one in his family with a brilliant mind. His father also had an inclination towards mathematics, and his sister earned a doctorate in literature.
This book provides a detailed account of Einstein's life that you do not want to miss.
Описание: We have been brought up to believe that, when we become sick, we can trust our medical system and (more specifically) our doctors to fix us. It's their calling and their duty. We hope that when they don't know or understand what is wrong, they will keep investigating until they figure it out. Unfortunately, that is often not the case.
Doctors are human, and as such, often find it easier to dismiss unusual combinations of symptoms, or assign a familiar but vague label, regardless of whether it actually fits the symptoms being described. It seems easier to discount symptoms when they don't make sense rather than admit that they don't know everything, and then make the effort to find out.
This is the story of one woman's physical, emotional, and spiritual journey through dis-ease to healing―a journey made possible by the determination of her devoted husband, who refused to give up on eventually uncovering the answer to a simple but heart-wrenching question: What is wrong with my wife?...
Описание: Brilliant, driven, but haunted by demons, William Stewart Halsted took surgery from a horrific, dangerous practice to what we now know as a lifesaving art. Imber delivers a major new biography of the doctor who invented modern surgery.

Описание:
An acclaimed biography of the Enlightenment's greatest mathematician
This is the first full-scale biography of Leonhard Euler (1707-83), one of the greatest mathematicians and theoretical physicists of all time. In this comprehensive and authoritative account, Ronald Calinger connects the story of Euler's eventful life to the astonishing achievements that place him in the company of Archimedes, Newton, and Gauss. Drawing on Euler's massive published works and correspondence, this biography sets Euler's work in its multilayered context--personal, intellectual, institutional, political, cultural, religious, and social. It is a story of nearly incessant accomplishment, from Euler's fundamental contributions to almost every area of pure and applied mathematics in his time--especially calculus, mechanics, and optics--to his advances in shipbuilding, telescopes, acoustics, ballistics, cartography, chronology, and music theory.

Описание: This text examines the design and application of polymeric waveguides and fibers. It discusses new polymer systems designed to expand the efficiency, and the number of applications for polymer waveguides. Topics include graded-index materials, ruggedized systems and dye-doped systems, structure property relations, and new synthetic and processing techniques designed to minimize extrinsic losses.
