in the 1300s to the Great Plague of London in 1665. For the past 100 years it
has been accepted that Yersinia pestis, the infective agent of bubonic plague,
was responsible for these epidemics. This book combines modern concepts of
epidemiology and molecular biology with computer-modeling. Applying these
concepts to the analysis of historical epidemics, the authors show that they
were not, in fact, outbreaks of bubonic plague. Biology of Plagues offers a
completely new interdisciplinary interpretation of the plagues of Europe, and
establishes them within a geographical, historical, and demographic framework.
This fascinating detective work will be of interest to readers in the social and
biological sciences, and lessons learned will underline the implications of
historical plagues for modern-day epidemiology.

Foo-Tim Chau, Yi-Zeng Liang, Junbin Gao, Xue-Guang Shao, "Chemometrics: From
Basics to Wavelet Transform"
Wiley-Interscience | ISBN 0471202428 | 2004 Year | PDF | 2,34 Mb | 316 Pages
“ Wavelet Transformations and Their Applications in Chemistry pioneers a new
approach to classifying existing chemometric techniques for data analysis in one
and two dimensions, using a practical applications approach to illustrating
chemical examples and problems. Written in a simple, balanced, applications-
based style, the book is geared to both theorists and non-mathematicians.
This text emphasizes practical applications in chemistry. It employs
straightforward language and examples to show the power of wavelet transforms
without overwhelming mathematics, reviews other methods, and compares wavelets
with other techniques that provide similar capabilities. It uses examples
illustrated in MATLAB codes to assist chemists in developing applications, and
includes access to a supplementary Web site providing code and data sets for
work examples. Wavelet Transformations and Their Applications in Chemistry will
prove essential to professionals and students working in analytical chemistry
and process chemistry, as well as physical chemistry, spectroscopy, and
statistics.

Johann Gasteiger (Editor), Thomas Engel (Editor), "Chemoinformatics: A Textbook"
John Wiley & Sons | ISBN 3527306811 | 2003 Year | PDF | 7,95 Mb | 680 Pages
“ This first work to be devoted entirely to this increasingly important field,
the "Textbook" provides both an in-depth and comprehensive overview of this
exciting new area.
Edited by Johann Gasteiger and Thomas Engel, the book provides an introduction
to the representation of molecular structures and reactions, data types and
databases/data sources, search methods, methods for data analysis as well as
such applications as structure elucidation, reaction simulation, synthesis
planning and drug design. A hands-on approach with step-by-step tutorials and
detailed descriptions of software tools and Internet resources allows easy
access for newcomers, advanced users and lecturers alike.
For a more detailed presentation, users are referred to the "Handbook of
Chemoinformatics", which will be published separately.
Johann Gasteiger is the recipient of the 1991 Gmelin-Beilstein Medal of the
German Chemical Society for Achievements in Computer Chemistry, and the Herman
Skolnik Award of the Division of Chemical Information of the American Chemical
Society (ACS) in 1997.
Thomas Engel joined the research group headed by Johann Gasteiger at the
University of Erlangen-Nuremberg and is a specialist in chemoinformatics.

Jesse Liberty, Dan Hurwitz, "Programming ASP.NET" (3rd edition)
O'Reilly | ISBN 059600916X | 2005 Year | CHM | 9,63 Mb | 956 Pages
“ O'Reilly has once again updated its bestselling tutorial on ASP.NET, the
world's leading web development tool from Microsoft. In Programming ASP.NET,
Third Edition, author Jesse Liberty gives you the lowdown on the technology's
latest version, ASP.NET 2.0, as well as Visual Studio 2005.
One of the most significant improvements to ASP.NET 2.0 is its intuitive nature.
In fact, when compared to its predecessor, ASP.NET 2.0 reduces the amount of
code you have to write by about 75%. Creating interactive web applications has
never been easier-but that still doesn't mean it's hassle-free! The difficulty
in ASP.NET 2.0 is that it's so complete and flexible that there are many pieces
that must be woven together to build a robust, scalable, and efficient
application.
Fortunately, Programming ASP.NET, Third Edition is on the case, dispensing all
the information you need to be effective with this dynamic tool. For starters,
the book features a comprehensive tutorial on Web Forms, the user interface that
gives web applications their look and feel. It then offers detailed explanations
of all new controls, including Web server controls, HTML controls, and custom
controls. Used properly, these controls are able to take care of nearly all the
foundation work-security, data access, layout, etc.-that you would normally have
to write yourself. Free of these burdensome tasks, you can instead focus on your
specific application.
Other new material found in this updated edition even shows you how to create
ASP.NET 2.0 pages for mobile devices. With Programming ASP.NET, Third Edition at
your side, there's virtually no end to the programming possibilities.
