System Modeling in Cell Biology: From Concepts to Nuts and Bolts
by Zoltan Szallasi Vipul Periwal Jorg StellingResearch in systems biology requires the collaboration of researchers from diverse backgrounds, including biology, computer science, mathematics, statistics, physics, and biochemistry. These collaborations, necessary because of the enormous breadth of background needed for research in this field, can be hindered by differing understandings of the limitations and applicability of techniques and concerns from different disciplines. This comprehensive introduction and overview of system modeling in biology makes the relevant background material from all pertinent fields accessible to researchers with different backgrounds. The emerging area of systems level modeling in cellular biology has lacked a critical and thorough overview. This book fills that gap. It is the first to provide the necessary critical comparison of concepts and approaches, with an emphasis on their possible applications. It presents key concepts and their theoretical background, including the concepts of robustness and modularity and their exploitation to study biological systems; the best-known modeling approaches, and their advantages and disadvantages; lessons from the application of mathematical models to the study of cellular biology; and available modeling tools and datasets, along with their computational limitations.
The Systematic Design Of Instruction
by Walter Dick Lou Carey James CareyA classic in the field, The Systematic Design of Instruction, 8/e presents a clear introduction to the fundamentals of instructional design―and the concepts and procedures necessary for analyzing, designing, developing, and evaluating instruction for all delivery formats. This is not a textbook to be memorized, but rather a learning-by-doing resource designed to help students create their own sound, effective instruction. In it readers learn a systematic, thoughtful, inquiry-based approach to creation, which in turn helps ensure the success of students in their charge. It features an intuitive chapter organization, an integrated model that presents research carefully illustrated with academic and business applications, contemporary design examples, sample rubrics and exercises, and annotated references. <P><P> This new edition has retained the features that have been most popular and helpful in the previous editions, while adding new perspectives and features that keep the text current, including updated references and recommended readings; additional attention to important topics such as learning and portable digital devices; additional tables summarizing and organizing concepts; a serial case study example which applies the text’s instructional design concepts; an additional case study in the Appendices; a plan with case study examples; and a helpful, easy-to-use Instructor’s Manual.

Systems of Psychotherapy: A Transtheoretical Analysis
by James O. Prochaska; John C. NorcrossComprehensive, systematic, and balanced, Systems of Psychotherapy uses a wealth of clinical cases to help readers understand a wide variety of psychotherapies - including psychodynamic, existential, experiential, interpersonal, exposure, behavioral, cognitive, third wave, systemic, multicultural, and integrative. The ninth edition of this landmark text thoroughly analyzes 15 leading systems of psychotherapy and briefly surveys another 32, providing students and practitioners with a broad overview of the discipline. <p><p> The book explores each system's theory of personality, theory of psychopathology, and resulting therapeutic process and therapy relationship. Through these explorations the authors clearly demonstrate how psychotherapy systems agree on the processes producing change while diverging on the elements in need of change. Additionally, the authors present cogent criticisms of each approach from cognitive-behavioral, psychoanalytic, humanistic, cultural, and integrative perspectives. This ninth edition features updated meta-analytic reviews of the effectiveness of each system, new sections on Lacanian analysis, mentalization therapy, and psychotherapy with gender nonconforming people, as well as new sections and updates throughout the text.

Verfolge seine Tagebucheinträge, um herauszufinden, was er von Maddi hält und was sonst noch in seinem Leben vor sich geht. Manchmal kann das Leben sehr schwer sein, besonders, wenn man erst vor kurzem seine Mom in einem Autounfall verloren hat. Aber Maddi zaubert immer wieder ein Lächeln auf das Gesicht von Mr. GDG. Eines Tages entdeckt Richard die Taschenuhr seiner Mom, ein altes Familienerbstück, das von Generation zu Generation weitergereicht wurde. Schon seine Oma erzählte ihm Geschichten über ihre unglaublichen Abenteuer damit. Könnte es sein, dass ihre Geschichten tatsächlich wahr sind? Hat die Taschenuhr etwas mit diesen Erlebnissen zu tun? Wird Richard der Sache auf den Grund gehen oder folgt er dem Rat seines Dads und lässt die Finger davon? Ein super Buch für junge Mädchen im Alter von 8 bis 12 Jahren. Das hier sagen unsere wunderbaren Leser: Ich liebe es! Es ist so toll, inspirierend für alle beinahe coolen Mädchen. Das Buch zeigt, dass Mr. Groß, Dunkel und Gutaussehend eine weiche Seite hat! Es ist so süß! Ich finde das Buch wirklich gut; ich glaube, es ist eines meiner Lieblingsbücher. Am Anfang war es sehr traurig. Weißt du, meine beste Freundin hat ihre Mutter verloren und sie hat das Buch auch gelesen und gesagt, dass es ihr genauso ging. Mir gefällt auch, dass Maddi ihr eigenes Tagebuch schreibt, aber dann kann man auch das von Mr. GDG lesen. Ich liebe dieses Buch, ach bitte, bitte, bitte schreibe noch eins für mich! Ich liiiiiiiiiiebe dieses Buch kannst du noch eins schreiben bitte weil es mir so gut gefallen hat (wirklich) bitte!!!
