Paperback. Zustand: Good. James D. Watson When, in late March of 1953, Francis Crick and I came to write the first Nature paper describing the double helical structure of the DNA molecule, Francis had wanted to include a lengthy discussion of the genetic implications of a molecule whose struc- ture we had divined from a minimum of experimental data and on theoretical argu- ments based on physical principles. But I felt that this might be tempting fate, given that we had not yet seen the detailed evidence from King's College. Nevertheless, we reached a compromise and decided to include a sentence that pointed to the biological significance of the molecule's key feature-the complementary pairing of the bases. It has not escaped our notice, Francis wrote, that the specific pairing that we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copying mechanism for the genetic material. By May, when we were writing the second Nature paper, I was more confident that the proposed structure was at the very least substantially correct, so that this second paper contains a discussion of molecular self-duplication using templates or molds. We pointed out that, as a consequence of base pairing, a DNA molecule has two chains that are complementary to each other. Each chain could then act . . . as a template for the formation on itself of a new companion chain, so that eventually we shall have two pairs of chains, where we only had one before and, moreover, .…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In a sense, trigonometry sits at the center of high school mathematics. It originates in the study of geometry when we investigate the ratios of sides in similar right triangles, or when we look at the relationship between a chord of a circle and its arc. It leads to a much deeper study of periodic functions, and of the so-called transcendental functions, which cannot be described using finite algebraic processes. It also has many applications to physics, astronomy, and other branches of science. It is a very old subject. Many of the geometric results that we now state in trigonometric terms were given a purely geometric exposition by Euclid. Ptolemy, an early astronomer, began to go beyond Euclid, using the geometry of the time to construct what we now call tables of values of trigonometric functions. Trigonometry is an important introduction to calculus, where one stud- ies what mathematicians call analytic properties of functions. One of the goals of this book is to prepare you for a course in calculus by directing your attention away from particular values of a function to a study of the function as an object in itself. This way of thinking is useful not just in calculus, but in many mathematical situations. So trigonometry is a part of pre-calculus, and is related to other pre-calculus topics, such as exponential and logarithmic functions, and complex numbers.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. In 1994 Peter Shor [65] published a factoring algorithm for a quantum computer that finds the prime factors of a composite integer N more efficiently than is possible with the known algorithms for a classical com­ puter. Since the difficulty of the factoring problem is crucial for the se­ curity of a public key encryption system, interest (and funding) in quan­ tum computing and quantum computation suddenly blossomed. Quan­ tum computing had arrived. The study of the role of quantum mechanics in the theory of computa­ tion seems to have begun in the early 1980s with the publications of Paul Benioff [6]' [7] who considered a quantum mechanical model of computers and the computation process. A related question was discussed shortly thereafter by Richard Feynman [35] who began from a different perspec­ tive by asking what kind of computer should be used to simulate physics. His analysis led him to the belief that with a suitable class of "quantum machines" one could imitate any quantum system.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Originally written in Russian and used in the Gelfand Correspondence School, "Lines and Curves" has since become a classic: the exposition maintains mathematical rigor while balancing creative storytelling and unusual examples of geometric properties. One of the key strengths of the text is its reinterpretation of geometry in the context of motion, whereby curves are realized as trajectories of moving points instead of as stationary configurations in the plane. This novel approach, rooted in physics and kinematics, yields surprisingly intuitive and straightforward proofs of many otherwise difficult results. This newly revised and expanded edition includes more than 200 theoretical and practical problems in which formal geometry provides simple and elegant insight, including problems of maxima and minima and the construction of sets satisfying specific geometric constraints.  Hence Lines and Curves is well positioned for companion use with software packages like The Geometer?s Sketchpad®, and it can serve as a guidebook for engineers.  Its deeper, interdisciplinary treatment is ideal for more theoretical readers, and the development from first principles makes the book accessible to undergraduates, advanced high school students, teachers, and puzzle enthusiasts alike.…

333 Seiten: Ill., graph. Darst. ; 24 cm, gebundene Ausgabe, sehr gut "Dieses Buch beschreibt eine persönliche Reise. Nicht durch ein fremdes Land oder durch fremde Gedankenwelten. Es ist eine Reise durch ein Stück Lebenszeit, durch das Innere der Uhr des Lebens, durch den Alterungsprozeß des Menschen. Es soll eine Entdeckungsreise sein. Wir werden an vielen Orten auf der ganzen Welt und an vielen Stellen unseres Körpers haltmachen. Wir werden anhalten, um uns Fragen zu stellen, durch die wir den Prozeß des Altems besser verstehen können; zum Beispiel,Warum werden unterschiedliche Tierarten verschieden alt?4, ,Warum bekomme ich graue Haare?4." Der Reiseleiter ist sich bewußt, daß wir zwar alle das gleiche biologische Schicksal, nicht jedoch die gleichen biologischen Vorkenntnisse teilen. Selbst wenn Sie in der Schule in den meisten Biologiestunden gefehlt haben sollten, können Sie alles in diesem Buch verstehen - tatsächlich können Sie dieses Buch lesen wie Ihre Morgenzeitung." John./. Medina Der Autor: Dr. John J. Medina ist Molekularbiologe an der University of Washington School of Medicine. Darüber hinaus ist er als Fachberater und Kolumnist tätig. Er hat sich in den USA sowohl als Wissenschaftler wie auch als erfolgreicher Autor populärwissenschaftlicher Bücher einen Namen gemacht. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 729.…
