Introducing graduate students and researchers to mathematical physics, this book discusses two recent developments: the demonstration that causality can be defined on discrete space-times; and Sewell’s measurement theory, in which the wave packet is reduced without recourse to the observer’s conscious ego, nonlinearities or interaction with the rest of the universe. The definition of causality on a discrete space-time assumes that space-time is made up of geometrical points. Using Sewell’s measurement theory, the author concludes that the notion of geometrical points is as meaningful in quantum mechanics as it is in classical mechanics, and that it is impossible to tell whether the differential calculus is a discovery or an invention. Providing a mathematical discourse on the relation between theoretical and experimental physics, the book gives detailed accounts of the mathematically difficult measurement theories of von Neumann and Sewell.
Famous for her curvaceous and busty figure, Denise Milani is a hugely successful pinup model who is counted amongst the most searched women on the web. At the peak of her career, she regularly outshone other internationally popular models, such as Veronica Varekova, Marisa Miller, Bar Refaeli, and Elle Macpherson in terms of Google hits.

This book is a comprehensive illustration of content covering cochlear implants’ past, present, and future perspectives. It delves into history, about how the first implant was conceived around 50 years ago and how modern cochlear implants provide better hearing and speech discrimination with the evolution of technology. This book discusses the basic working principles of cochlear implants, along with a review of their clinical use. The book also elaborates upon the various surgical techniques authored by clinicians who are pioneers. This book covers various important topics such as implantation in abnormal cochleas, bilateral implantation, implanting with acoustic and electric stimulation, and re-implantation. The book guides selecting the suitable candidates, describing preoperative evaluation and imaging techniques. This book will be an invaluable source of guidance for ENT surgeons, Audiologists, and Neurologists, along with undergraduate and postgraduate students in Audiology and ENT.
This book is a collection of high-quality research articles. The book includes topics specific to the emerging areas of control for robotic systems, wireless communication, and development of embedded systems for robotic applications. The book integrates three important aspects of automation, namely (i) communication, (ii) control, and (iii) embedded design for robotic applications. This book is unique as it provides a unified framework for analysis, design, and deployment of the robotic applications across various engineering and non-engineering disciplines including the three primary aspects mentioned above. Furthermore, the emerging research and development work pertaining to the deployment of intelligent, nonlinear, and embedded control for robotic system for non-standard operating environment due to the widespread application of robotics technology for societal benefit is also a focal point of the book.
“Zainab, the lion hearted Lady of Karbala was the daughter of Fatima and Ali. She was the Grand daughter of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and Hasan and Hussain’s sister.
