Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Enclosed within the pages of this book are the mathematical proofs for the geometric structure of eleven-dimensional space.They are simple to understand and utterly irrefutable. In fact they are so simple to understand that anyone who can count to ten using the ten digits of the decimal positional notation system, i.e. the numbers 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9, should have no problems understanding this geometry.These are the mathematics that prove how a number of theories in quantum physics can be proven to be true by using basic mathematical knowledge and elementary logical procedures.And they are so restrictive that they leave absolutely no alternative other than to accept the fundamental truth of the facts that they prove.They also provide the mechanism for the big bang, and what it was that caused space and time to erupt into existence in the first place. They can even explain dark energy and lots of other things as well.And if you find all this difficult to believe, just read the book.…

Zustand: Fine. x, 488, text figs. . HB. Fine. Authoritative collection of papers on the world's leading wetlands - a must for all those who study these vital but rapidly shrinking natural areas.During the past century approximately fifty percent of the world's wetlands have been destroyed, largely due to human activities. Increased human population has lead to shrinkage of wetland areas, and data show that as they shrink, their important functions decline. Reduced wetland area causes more flooding in Spring, less available water during drought, greater risk of water pollution, and less food production and reduced carbon storage. Much of the remaining pristine wetland systems are found in the world's largest wetlands, and yet these areas have received surprisingly little scientific research or attention. This volume presents the views of leading experts on each of the world's largest wetland systems. Here, this international team of authors share their understanding of the ecological dynamics of large wetlands and their significance, and emphasise their need of conservation. [9780521834049].…
