Mastering Rhinoplasty: A Comprehensive Atlas of Surgical Techniques (2nd edition)

Mastering Rhinoplasty: A Comprehensive Atlas of Surgical Techniques (2nd edition) By Rollin K. Daniel
2010 | 449 Pages | ISBN: 3642014011 | EPUB | 74 MB

Every surgeon who carries out rhinoplasty procedures will learn a great deal from this book. The beginner is guided through the performance of a standard rhinoplasty operation that can be expanded to incorporate the described advanced techniques as experience is gained. Here, the emphasis is on the routine case that is too frequently overlooked in favor of the esoteric. For the already proficient surgeon, on the other hand, the latest breakthroughs in the management of difficult cases, such as saddle nose, skin sleeve problems, and dorsal grafting, are clearly depicted. When appropriate, approaches developed exclusively by the author are presented. The lucid text is complemented by a wealth of color figures.

Mathematical Techniques in GIS (2nd edition) (Repost)

Mathematical Techniques in GIS (2nd edition) By Peter Dale
2014 | 359 Pages | ISBN: 146659554X | PDF | 8 MB

The second edition of a bestseller, Mathematical Techniques in GIS demystifies the mathematics used in the manipulation of spatially related data. The author takes a step-by-step approach through the basics of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus that underpin the management of such data. He then explores the use of matrices, determinants and vectors in the handling of geographic information so that the data may be analyzed and displayed in two-dimensional form either in the visualization of the terrain or as map projections.
See What’s New in the Second Edition:
Summaries at the end of each chapter
Worked examples of techniques described
Additional material on matrices and vectors
Further material on map projections
New material on spatial correlation
A new section on global positioning systems
Written for those who need to make use geographic information systems but have a limited mathematical background, this book introduces the basic statistical techniques commonly used in geographic information systems and explains best-fit solutions and the mathematics behind satellite positioning. By understanding the mathematics behind the gathering, processing, and display of information, you can better advise others on the integrity of results, the quality of the information, and the safety of using it.

Higher-order Techniques in Computational Electromagnetics

Higher-order Techniques in Computational Electromagnetics (Mario Boella Series on Electromagnetism in Information and Communication) by Roberto D. Graglia, Andrew F. Peterson
2016 | ISBN: 1613530161 | English | 408 pages | PDF | 10 MB

Higher-order Techniques in Computational Electromagnetics takes a different approach to computational electromagnetics and looks at it from the viewpoint of vector fields and vector currents. It gives a more detailed treatment of vector basis function than that currently available in other books. It also describes the approximation of vector quantities by vector basis functions, explores the error in that representation, and considers various other aspects of the vector approximation problem.

This unique guide is the perfect reference guide for those who need to understand and use numerical techniques for electromagnetic fields.

Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life: A Former CIA Officer Reveals Safety and Survival Techniques to Keep You and Your Family Pr

Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life: A Former CIA Officer Reveals Safety and Survival Techniques to Keep You and Your Family Protected [Audiobook] by Jason Hanson
English | September 22, 2015 | ASIN: B014E4QNAI | MP3@64 kbps | 6 hrs 17 mins | 173 MB
Narrator: Jason Hanson | Genre: Nonfiction/Survival Techniques

When Jason Hanson joined the CIA in 2003, he never imagined that the same tactics he used as a CIA officer for counterintelligence, surveillance, and protecting agency personnel would prove to be essential in every day civilian life.

In addition to escaping handcuffs, picking locks, and spotting when someone is telling a lie, he can improvise a self-defense weapon, pack a perfect emergency kit, and disappear off the grid if necessary. He has also honed his “positive awareness” – a heightened sense of his surroundings that allows him to spot suspicious and potentially dangerous behavior – on the street, in a taxi, at the airport, when dining out, or in any other situation.

In his engaging and empowering book Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life, Jason shares this know-how with listeners, revealing how to:

Prevent home invasions, carjackings, muggings, and other violent crimes

Run countersurveillance and avoid becoming a soft target

Recognize common scams at home and abroad

Become a human lie detector in any setting, including business negotiations

Gain peace of mind by being prepared for anything instead of being uninformed or afraid

With the skill of a trained operative and the reliability of a suburban dad, Jason Hanson brings his top-level training to everyday Americans in this must-have guide to staying safe in an increasingly dangerous world.

Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques

Susan Iacovou, Karen Weixel-Dixon, “Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques”
English | ISBN: 0415644429, 0415644410 | 2015 | 268 pages | PDF | 1 MB

Less of an orientation and more a way of understanding the challenges of being human, existential therapy draws on rich and diverse philosophical traditions and ways of viewing the world. Traditionally it has been seen as difficult to summarise and comprehend and the air of mystery surrounding existential ideas has been exacerbated by the dense language often used by philosophers and practitioners. Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques provides a comprehensive and accessible guide to a fascinating and exciting body of knowledge, and the therapeutic approach it informs. Divided into five parts the topics covered include:

Existentialism – inception to present day

Theoretical assumptions

Existential phenomenological therapy in practice

Ethics and existential therapy

Bringing it all together

Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques will be essential reading for all trainee and qualified counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists and psychiatrists who want to use the wisdom of existential ideas in their work with clients. It will also benefit clients and potential clients who want to find out how existential ideas and existential therapy can help them explore what it means to be alive.

Neutron Scattering and Other Nuclear Techniques for Hydrogen in Materials

Neutron Scattering and Other Nuclear Techniques for Hydrogen in Materials
Springer | Materials | April 20 2016 | ISBN-10: 3319227912 | 413 pages | pdf | 15.83 mb

Editors: Fritzsche, Helmut, Huot, Jacques, Fruchart, Daniel (Eds.)

Provides a comprehensive overview of nuclear techniques used for hydrogen-related research
Explains all nuclear techniques in detail for the non-expert
Covers the whole range of hydrogen-related research
Features chapters written by world-renowned experts in nuclear technique and hydrogen-related research

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the main nuclear characterization techniques used to study hydrogen absorption and desorption in materials. The various techniques (neutron scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance, ion-beams, perturbed angular correlation, muon spin rotation) are explained in detail, and a variety of examples of recent research projects are given to show the unique advantage of these techniques to study hydrogen in materials. Most of these nuclear techniques require very specialized instrumentation, and there are only a handful of these instruments available worldwide. Therefore, the aim of this book is to reach out to a readership with a very diverse background in the physical sciences and engineering and a broad range of hydrogen-related research interests. The same technique can be used by researchers interested in the improvement of the performance of hydrogen storage materials and by those focused on hydrogen ingress causing embrittlement of metals. The emphasis of this book is to provide tutorial material on how to use nuclear characterization techniques for the investigation of hydrogen in materials – information that cannot readily be found in conference and regular research papers.
