Risk regulation in the twenty-first century struggles with new risks and finding better ways of organising to anticipate and control them. Science and technology develop in new directions; the interconnectedness between local and distant infrastructures and communication channels are increasing; and businesses, politicians and regulators try to develop improved social and organisational sources of resilience. In so doing new regulatory spaces are sought out and exploited and in turn, some of these become the source of new unintended regulatory risks.

Magnetic fields are found in every corner of the cosmos. For decades, astrophysicists have identified them by their effects on visible light, radio waves, and x-rays. J. B. Zirker summarizes our deep knowledge of magnetism, pointing to what is yet unknown about its astrophysical applications.

The writing of this book took place during the long aftermath of what is now simply known as “9/11.” In the very last stages of rewriting this book, the tsunami catastrophe occurred. Whilst proof-reading, “7/7” shocked London. These crises highlight many of the issues we discuss in this book. They illustrate the point we wish to make in this book: crises are political at heart. When a society or one of its key institutions encounters a major crisis, the politics of public policy making do not – as official rhetoric frequently suggests – abate. On the contrary, political rivalries about the interpretation of fast-moving events and their effects are part of the drama that crisis management entails in modern society.

The attempt to find mechanically efficient structural designs and shapes was initiated mainly in the fields of mechanical engineering and aeronautical engineering, which established the field known as structural optimization. Many practically acceptable results have been developed for application to automobiles and aircraft. Some examples are structural components, including the wings of aircraft and engine mounts of automobiles, which can be fully optimized using efficient shape optimization techniques.

The Market in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) is nothing short of a revolution. Introduced on 1 November 2007, it will have a profound, long-term impact on Europe's securities markets. It will see banks operating as exchanges for certain activities, offering alternative execution services that more closely resemble the structure of over-the-counter markets, and will lead to the decentralisation of order execution in an array of venues previously governed by concentration rules. Crucially, MiFID will also have a profound impact on the organisation and business strategies of investment firms, exchanges, asset managers and other financial markets intermediaries. Until now, analysis has focused on the directive's short term implementation issues. This book focuses on the long term strategic implications associated with MiFID, and will be essential reading for anybody who recognises that their firm will need to make constant dynamic readjustments in order to remain competitive in this challenging new environment.

There are continuous efforts focussed on improving road traffic safety worldwide. Numerous vehicle safety features have been invented and standardized over the past decades. Particularly interesting are the driver assistance systems, since these can considerably reduce the number of accidents by supporting drivers’ perception of their surroundings. Many driver assistance features rely on radar-based sensors. Nowadays the commercially available automotive front-end sensors are comprised of discrete components, thus making the radar modules highly-priced and suitable for integration only in premium class vehicles. Realization of low-cost radar frontend circuits would enable their implementation in inexpensive economy cars, considerably contributing to traffic safety.

This is the 3rd volume in a series of reviews centered on the single major topic of bone replacement, discussing the biology of stem cells and cell signals, the knowledge needed to make stem cell-engineered bone tissue a reality, and how to prevent bone allograft infection. Useful as a followup to its predecessors, and as a stand-alone reference, it will interest a broad audience from orthopedists and bioengineers to dentists.

The communication of the ideas through the graphical language is the oldest form of communication among humans; all it requires is some kind of equipment to form an image. We might recall the prehistoric era where mankind used the stick to scratch out a message on the sand or certain ancient alphabets were in the form of the pictures. Engineering graphics is a study which requires special equipment or tools to form the images. The tools can be simple pencil and draft board or a computer controlled drafting device.
