Review Radiological Protection (Landolt-Bornstein: Numerical Data and Functional Relationships in Science and Technology - New Series) / Springer:The volume Radiological Protection is not only a compilation of numerical data and functional relationships for practical purposes. Rather a comprehensive accompanying text is intended to impart to the scientific or professional user of Radiological Protection both data, the concepts and scientific bases of the discipline devoted to prevention of health risks to man from exposure to ionizing radiations and radionuclides. It contains contributions of experts internationally qualified in scientific disciplines or subjects such as radiation physics, biology and medicine, external and internal dosimetry of ionizing radiation and radionuclides, decontamination and decorporation of radionuclides, physical and biological measuring techniques, assessment of radiation shielding (restricted to an extent being necessary for completion of tasks of practical radiological protection, specifically in the field of lower energies). The CD-ROM delivered with the hardcopy of the volume contains the full text of the volume and in addition information and data, which would be beyond the scope of the printed version, within the interactive programme SISy (for MS-Windows only). These refer e. g. to decay data of radionuclides or normalized excretion functions for monitoring workers by quantitative assessment of intakes of radionuclides and calculation of resulting doses.

Review International Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the Tavistock Press / Routledge:The Tavistock Institute holds a unique place in the development of the social and behavioural sciences. Established in 1947, the focus of the organisation has always been on the study of human relations in the context of the family, the work group and the larger organisation. Constantly innovative, the Institute has been a pioneer of such key methodologies as group dynamics, actionresearch and organisational development. Tavistock Press was established as a co-operative venture between the Institute and Routledge & Kegan Paul (RKP) in the 1950s and produced a series of major contributions across the social sciences. Continuing late into the 1980s the activities of the Press mirrored those of the Institute and published groundbreaking works by a number of eminent academics including Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, D. A. Winnicott and Elliot Jaques. This collection makes available, in facsimile, a selection of those important works which have gone out of print or are difficult to locate. The volumes are available individually and as minisets, structured around those areas Tavistock helped to create, as well as the more established fields to which it made significant contribu.
