Pufendorf's international political and legal thought
Analyses Samuel Pufendorf's understanding of the international legal order and how it was shaped by his reflections on topics that are conventionally distinguished from international law in academic study, namely religious toleration and theology. The first and second sections examine the post-Westphalian system in the Holy Roman Empire and the importance of keeping the promises made between states. The third section takes up the theological dimension of Pufendorf's thinking in Jus feciale divinum (1695) and the covenant or federal theology it involves. Parallels are consequently drawn between Pufendorf's arguments on covenants with treaties in international law. The concluding section studies these aspects in further detail and shows the extent to which Pufendorf's conception of international law reflects the pattern of his theology

Psychological analysis : How to make money, outsmart the market, and Join the smart money circle
Conventional wisdom tells us that people are rational and make rational decisions with their money. But that's simply not true considering most people fail to beat the market. Conventional wisdom also tells us that there are two primary ways to approach the market: technical and fundamental analysis. Again, that is not true because if it were—everyone would be rich. Think about it, how many times have you seen stocks with poor fundamentals go up, or stocks with great technicals go down? It's obvious that something is missing.

Protocols for High Speed Networks ; 7th IFIP/IEEE International Workshop, PfHSN 2002, Berlin, Germany, April 22-24, 2002. Proceedings
This workshop on “Protocols for High-Speed Networks” is the seventh in a s- cessful series of international workshops, well known for their small and focused target audience, that provide a sound basis for intensive discussions of hi- qualityand timelyresearch work. PfHSN is a workshop providing an international forum that focuses on issues related to high-speed networking, such as protocols, implementation techniques, router design, network processors and the like. Although the topics have shifted during the last couple of years, for example, from parallel protocol implemen- tions to network processors, it could be observed that high speed remains a very important issue with respect to future networking.
Proteomics and Protein-Protein Interactions : Biology, Chemistry, Bioinformatics, and Drug Design
Techniques have been developed to rapidly create protein-protein interactions maps which in turn can be organized into pathways. Proteins serving as hubs in these networks seem to play crucial biological roles. Some of these proteins may provide new pharmalogical targets for an industry which is rapidly running out of the more classical means of finding new markets. Proteomics and Protein-Protein Interactions: Biology, Chemistry, Bioinformatics, and Drug Design aims at providing a comprehensive yet entertaining view of this rapidly evolving and exciting field. It starts with an overview of the importance of protein-protein interaction in biology (Chapter I). Next, the book dives into Proteomics issues (Chapter II) and describes successful applications of the Proteomics approach. Chapter III focuses on the very specific roles that protein modules play in determining and regulating protein-protein interactions while chapter IV addresses the chemical and energetic underpinnings of such macromolecular interactions. The data generated by a Proteomics approach is abundant and will only be made sense of using bio-informatics: chapter V is dedicated to giving a voice to some of the leaders in the bio-informatics field. Finally, in chapter VI, examples are provided to illustrate the great potential that protein-protein interfaces have as targets for pharmaceutical
Proteins at Solid-Liquid Interfaces
The adsorption of proteins at interfaces plays a role in many fields, suchas health, food, environment and analysis. Fundamental aspects are usefulwhen considering applications. We focus here especially on solid–liquidinterfaces and present a few fundamental studies regarding adsorption ki-netics and conformational changes, and examples of applications to sensorsand membranes.The first part is dedicated to fundamental studies performed using op-tical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy, as an example of a technique thathas the advantage of not requiring labelled proteins, but is limited to spe-cific supports.The second part includes different bench techniques that were devel-oped to improve the sensitivity of the characterisation of the orientationand structure of the proteins at interfaces.
Protein Movement Across Membranes
This book addresses the most recent advances in the transport of proteins across a variety of biological membranes. In addressing this topic, this volume includes several new twists not previously addressed in the literature. In the last few years, the study of protein translocation has been revolutionized by the availability of structural information on many of the components and complexes involved in the process. Unlike earlier books written on protein translocation, this volume considers these advances. In addition, several chapters discuss facets of protein translocation from a systems biology perspective, considered by many to be the next paradigm for biological study. Readers of this book will come away with a deeper understanding of the problems facing researchers of protein translocation and see how the most modern biological techniques and approaches are being recruited to answer those questions. The chapters are also written such that problems awaiting future investigation are clearly presented.
