Tento autor si zaslouží pozornost pro svůj jedinečný styl a témata. Jeho díla zkoumají hluboké otázky lidské existence a často se vyznačují pronikavým vhledem do psychologie postav. Próza je plynulá a evokativní, vtahuje čtenáře do světů, které jsou zároveň povědomé i cizí. Je to hlas, který rezonuje s těmi, kdo hledají literaturu, která je náročná i obohacující.
Překlad již 7. vydání této vyhledávané učebnice nakladatelství Thieme s původním názvem Endokrinologie für die Praxis je určen zejména lékařům bez endokrinologické nebo diabetologické atestace. Využijí ji tak zejména praktiční lékaři, lékaři v první linii kontaktu s pacientem, lékaři „emergency“, internisti a samozřejmě také medici. Vzhledem k rozmanitosti projevů endokrinologických onemocnění ale může takový pacient navštívit ordinaci lékaře jakéhokoli odborného zaměření.
Kniha je přehledná, její didaktičnost zvyšuje 109 jednoduchých schematických obrázků a 29 tabulek.
Autobiografické vyprávění maďarského dramatika, jenž ve svém ojedinělém díle spojil popis života v uměleckém prostředí se zkušenostmi plynoucími z kontaktu s nadsmyslovou oblastí a s pochopením duchovních zákonů řídících život na tomto i onom světě.
Výrazné vypravěčské umění autora i síly plynoucí z jeho bezprostředních zkušeností je českému čtenáři předávána i díky zdařilému, citlivému překladu dvojice Monika Zbavitelová a Dušan Zbavitel.
Computer modeling pervades today all fields of science. For the study of com plex systems, such as the environment, it has become an indispensable tool. But it is also a tool that is often misunderstood and misinterpreted. These dangers are particularly pronounced in the environmental sciences, an area of interest and concern not only to scientists, but also to the general public, the media, policy makers and powerful interest groups. We cannot experiment with our planet. The only quantitative tool available for the assessment of the impact of our actions today on the future environment and living conditions of later generations is numerical modeling. The better the general understanding of the potential and limitations of numerical models, the better the chances for a rational analysis and discussion of environmental problems and poli cies. But in addition to the more recent political issue of human impacts on the environment, numerical models play an important role for the forecasting of natural environmental variability, such as tides and storm surges or the weathcr, or for the interpretation of environmental changes in the past, such as the relation between the Late Maunder Minimum of the sunspot cycle from 1675 to 1710 and the winter half year cooling at the end of the 17th century. The reasons for misunderstandings and misinterpretations of numerical model results are manifold.

When the cargo ship Chapelon is ordered to sail from her home port of Dunkirk just two days before Christmas, her crew is less than pleased. Not only were their hopes of celebrating with their loved ones wrecked, they also knew they were about to sail into rough and turbulent seas. In a storm of unprecedented fury that is encountered off the north-east coast of England, the ship experiences an engine room explosion that leaves her disabled and at the mercy of the furious wind blowing her towards the shore. Efforts to find a tug to assist Chapelon prove to be fruitless and a life boat and helicopter that are dispatched to aid the distressed ship and rescue her crew themselves become overwhelmed in the atrocious conditions being experienced. When Chapelon's grounding becomes an obvious and imminent certainty, her crew's very survival becomes reliant upon a local coastguard coming up with a last-ditch plan.
In view of the incessant growth of data and knowledge and the continued diversifi- tion of information dissemination on a global scale, scalability has become a ma- stream research area in computer science and information systems. The ICST INFO- SCALE conference is one of the premier forums for presenting new and exciting research related to all aspects of scalability, including system architecture, resource management, data management, networking, and performance. As the fourth conf- ence in the series, INFOSCALE 2009 was held in Hong Kong on June 10 and 11, 2009. The articles presented in this volume focus on a wide range of scalability issues and new approaches to tackle problems arising from the ever-growing size and c- plexity of information of all kind. More than 60 manuscripts were submitted, and the Program Committee selected 22 papers for presentation at the conference. Each s- mission was reviewed by three members of the Technical Program Committee.
