Book Description
This book presents a series of models in the general area of cell physiology and signal transduction, with particular attention being paid to intracellular calcium dynamics, and the role played by calcium in a variety of cell types. Calcium plays a crucial role in cell physiology, and the study of its dynamics lends insight into many different cellular processes. In particular, calcium plays a central role in muscular contraction, olfactory transduction and synaptic communication, three of the topics to be addressed in detail in this book. In addition to the models, much of the underlying physiology is presented, so that readers may learn both the mathematics and the physiology, and see how the models are applied to specific biological questions.
It is intended primarily as a graduate text or a research reference. It will serve as a concise and up-to-date introduction to all those who wish to learn about the state of calcium dynamics modeling, and how such models are applied to physiological questions.

Description:
Microarray chips generate large amounts of data about a cell's state. In our work we want to analyze these data in order to describe the regulation processes within a cell. Therefore, we build a model which is capable of capturing the most relevant regulating interactions and present an approach how to calculate the parameters for the model from time-series data. This approach uses the discrete approximation method of least squares to solve a data fitting modeling problem. Furthermore, we analyze the features of our proposed system, i.e., which kinds of dynamical behaviors the system is able to show.

Book Description
This book summarizes the qualitative theory of differential equations with or without delays, collecting recent oscillation studies important to applications and further developments in mathematics, physics, engineering, and biology. The authors address oscillatory and nonoscillatory properties of first-order delay and neutral delay differential equations, second-order delay and ordinary differential equations, higher-order delay differential equations, and systems of nonlinear differential equations. The final chapter explores key aspects of the oscillation of dynamic equations on time scales-a new and innovative theory that accomodates differential and difference equations simultaneously.

Book Description
This book reviews material from more than three hundred publications on the oscillation theory of difference and functional differential equations of various types. For difference equations, a large number of new concepts are explained and supported by interesting theoretical developments. For differential equations, simplified versions of several new integral criteria for oscillations are presented. Proofs which illustrate the various strategies and ideas involved are given. This book should be a stimulus to the further development of the theory. Audience: This work will be of interest to mathematicians and graduate students in the disciplines of theoretical and applied mathematics.

Book Description
The qualitative theory of dynamic equations is a rapidly developing area of research. In the last 50 years, the Oscillation Theory of ordinary, functional, neutral, partial and impulsive differential equations, and their discrete versions, has inspired many scholars. Hundreds of research papers have been published in every major mathematical journal. Many books deal exclusively with the oscillation of solutions of differential equations, but most of these books appeal only to researchers who already know the subject. In an effort to bring Oscillation Theory to a new and broader audience, the authors present a compact, but thorough, understanding of Oscillation Theory for second order differential equations. They include several examples throughout the text not only to illustrate the theory, but also to provide new direction.

Book Description
This book provides a concise presentation of the majortechniques for determining analytic approximations to the solutions of planar oscillatory dynamic systems. These systems model many important phenomena in the sciences and engineering. In addition to the usual perturbation procedures, the book gives the details of when and how to correctly apply the method of harmonic balance for both first-order and higher-order calculations. This procedure is rarely given or discussed fully in standard textbooks. The basic philosophy of the book stresses how to initiate and complete the calculation of approximate solutions. This is done by a clear presentation of necessary background materials and by the working out of many examples.

36 stories by one of the worlds literature masters, Count Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910)
Customer Reviews:
Stimulating reading from the whole of Tolstoy's life.......2001-02-28
I agree with the previous two reviewers and join them in recommending this book, especially to those who have not yet read much Tolstoy. Rather than repeat what's been said, let me add one caveat and two complaints.
First, the caveat. If you already own a lot of Tolstoy's short fiction, you should preview this book to decide whether it offers enough new material to warrant buying. This anthology includes a number of familiar classics (mentioned in the other reviews), but you may decide it's still worth purchasing for the less common and early works.
Now for the complaints. _Kreutzer_Sonata_, or _Father_Sergius_? If I had to make an either-or choice, I think I would choose _Father_Sergius_. The editor chose _Kreutzer_Sonata_. A defensible choice, but not my preference.
A more serious complaint I have regards an omission. I would think that a Tolstoy anthology with "courage" and "conflict" in the subtitle would have to include _Hadji_Murat_. Its absence seems an oversight to me.
Despite these minor criticisms, I'm still giving this collection 5 stars on the merits of the works themselves. You will never regret time spent reading Tolstoy.
A Good Collection of Tolstoy's Career.......2000-08-02
This collection of Tolstoy's work covers a period from 1852 (The Invaders) thru 1893 (Walk in the Light While There is Light). From the first published writing that marked him as a talent too good to ignore, through his religious conversion, and his soul-searching conclusions.
Some of his greatest short works are here. "The Recollections of a Billiard-Marker" is one of the early writings, and one of the bet descriptions of the effects of addiction (in this case an addiction to gambling) I have ever read. The Sevestopol Sketches (there are three of them) give one of the closest descriptions of men in war possible (the defense of Sevestopol during the Crimean War, which fell to the British and French). A group of religious parables. "The Death of Ivan Ilyitch" is a fantastic description of the internal battles waged when fighting with death. And "The Kreutzer Sonata" is a discussion of the place of men and women in society that should be required reading by anyone who thinks they understand the opposite sex.
There is enough in these stories to give the reader a chance to understand the author before attacking the larger and more famous major works.
Masterful Fiction by the Master of Fiction.......2000-07-10
There should be a higher number of stars that could be used for really classic fiction, and if there were, this book would warrant them. It includes many of Tolstoy's greatest short stories. The ones that made him famous. The ones that first showed his talent.
These stories span a period of over forty years, from "The Invaders" (1842) to "Walk in the Light While There is Still Light" (1893). We get a chance to not only read great stories, but to see the growth of a talent that started out better than most ever achieve.
"Recollections of a Billiard-Marker" (1855) is a less well known example of Tolstoy's ability to show the degeneration of a character. In this case it is by addiction to gambling that destroys a man, and the boy who works in a billiard hall who narrates. If this was the only story in the book, it would be worth buying, but it is not. It's not even the best one here.
Has there ever been a better description of men at war than "The Sevastapol Letters"? All three are here. Has anyone caught loneliness and despair better than "The Death of Ivan Ilyitch"? It's here.
No one catches class difference in fewer words. No one describes the ways we look at each other, the words we use, the words we don't use, better than this man.
Since this is a foreign novel, one must also mention the translation (by Isabel F. Hapsgood for the Sevestapol Letters, and Nathan Haskell Dole for everything else). They are good, they allow the language the feeling of another time, while allowing it to sound also current and easily readable.
A great way to cover much of the short fiction of one of the greatest fiction writers of all time.
