With the pacing of a thriller, this investigative work methodically details the Bush administration's aggressive role in twisting intelligence about alleged weapons of mass destruction in order to fabricate a case for war with Iraq.
This book provides a critical overview of the relationships between planning and railway management and development during the key period in the 20th Century when the railway was in public ownership: 1948-94.
The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB 2003) is an international, multidisciplinary conference for the presentation and discussion of current research in the theory and application of computational methods in problems of biological significance. The rigorously peer-reviewed papers and presentations are collected in this archival proceedings volume. PSB 2003 brings together top researchers from the US, the Asia-Pacific region and around the world to exchange research findings and address open issues in all aspects of computational biology. PSB is a forum for the presentation of work in databases, algorithms, interfaces, visualization, modeling and other computational methods, as applied to biological problems, with emphasis on applications in data-rich areas of molecular biology. Contents: Gene Regulation; Genome, Pathway, and Interaction Bioinformatics; Informatics Approaches in Structural Genomics; Genome-Wide Analysis and Comparative Genomics; Linking Biomedical Language, Information and Knowledge; Human Genome Variation: Haplotypes, Linkage Disequilibrium, and Populations; Biomedical Ontologies; Special Paper. Readership: Graduate students, academics and industrialists in bioinformatics, biochemists, computer scientists and researchers in neural networks.
A celebration of the iconic shoes and superstars who have defined the sport for decades, A History of Basketball in Fifteen Sneakers tells the story of hoops as only shoes can. The ultimate book for both hoops fans and sneaker obsessives, A History of Basketball in Fifteen Sneakers is an exciting and fascinating look at the sport written with authority and experience by former Complex and SLAM magazine editor Russ Bengtson. From primeval Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars to baroque Reebok Pumps and myth-making Air Jordans to super-high-tech Nike Adapt BBs, each chapter breaks down how a specific sneaker defined an era of basketball, transformed the culture, or changed the game. With full-color sneaker photographs and detailed illustrations throughout, the book is a kaleidoscopic celebration of the players, styles, and iconic moments that have shaped hoops both on and off the court. Topics include: Walt Frazier's PUMA Clydes and the New York City street game; Michael Jordan's first signature Air Jordan and the birth of the modern global basketball superstar; Nike Air Swoopes and the evolution of the women’s game; sneaker tech and the rise of retro; and much more.
Duke always believed he was destined to do something great but could not nail down just what his dream looked like. He spent the 80s building commercial bridges between the United States and China. As a result, he established friendships with many Chinese and a positive reputation with some of the top leaders of the government of the PRC. The TianAnMen Square disaster forces him to return to the States. He starts his life over, but a different scenario will bring him back to China and makes itself known through one of the old friends from those years.
The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB) 2009 is an international, multidisciplinary conference for the presentation and discussion of current research in the theory and application of computational methods in problems of biological significance. Presentations are rigorously peer reviewed and are published in an archival proceedings volume. PSB 2009 will be held on January 59, 2009 in Kamuela, Hawaii. Tutorials will be offered prior to the start of the conference. PSB 2009 will bring together top researchers from the US, the Asian Pacific nations, and around the world to exchange research results and address open issues in all aspects of computational biology. It is a forum for the presentation of work in databases, algorithms, interfaces, visualization, modeling, and other computational methods, as applied to biological problems, with emphasis on applications in data-rich areas of molecular biology. The PSB has been designed to be responsive to the need for critical mass in sub-disciplines within biocomputing. For that reason, it is the only meeting whose sessions are defined dynamically each year in response to specific proposals. PSB sessions are organized by leaders of research in biocomputing's "hot topics." In this way, the meeting provides an early forum for serious examination of emerging methods and approaches in this rapidly changing field.
