Physics of the Life Sciences

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Newman, Jay, PUBLISHER: Springer, Originally developed for the author's course at Union College, this text is designed for life science students who need to understand the connections of fundamental physics to modern biology and medicine. Almost all areas of modern life sciences integrally involve physics in both experimental techniques and in basic understanding of structure and function. Physics of the Life Sciences is not a watered-down, algebra-based engineering physics book with sections on relevant biomedical topics added as an afterthought. This authoritative and engaging text, which is designed to be covered in a two-semester course, was written with a thoroughgoing commitment to the needs and interests of life science students. Although covering most of the standard topics in introductory physics in a more or less traditional sequence, the author gives added weight and space to concepts and applications of greater relevance to the life sciences. Students benefit from occasional sidebars using calculus to derive fundamental relations, but only algebra and trigonometry are used to explore the basic physical concepts in the main body of the text and to solve end-of-chapter problems. --Course-tested text directed specifically at the needs of Life and Health Science and Pre-medical students --Fully integrates biology, biophysics and medical techniques into the presentation of modern physics --Profusely illustrated with nearly 900 photos and line drawings, many in full color, to illuminate the concepts and problems --Chapters contain three types of learning aids for the student: open-ended questions, multiple-choice questions, and quantitative problems in addition to numerous worked examples --Solutions manual available for instructors

Sciences of the Ancient Hindus: Unlocking Nature in the

Modern science and medicine would be unrecognizable,and far more primitive,without the immense contribution of the ancient Hindus. They invented everyday essentials such as our base-ten number system and zero as a numeral. The ancient Hindus also developed a sophisticated system of medicine with its mind-body approach known as Ayurveda; detailed anatomical and surgical knowledge of the human body,including cataract surgery and the so-called plastic surgery; metallurgical methods of extraction and purif

Physics and the Art of Dance: Understanding Movement

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Laws, Kenneth / Sugano, Arleen, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Physics and the Art of Dance gives all who enjoy dance - whether as dancers, students, teachers, or fans - an opportunity to understand what happens when human bodies move in the remarkable ways we call dance. How, for instance, do dancers create the illusion of defying gravity? Or of starting to spin when in the air with no source of force to act on their bodies? You may observe some dancers using their arms in a way that allows some to jump higher than others. What is that technique, and why does it work? In this second edition, author Ken Laws - a physicist with years of professional dance training - teams with veteran dance instructor Arleen Sugano to provide new step-by-step experiments for dancers. "What you see" sections describe the way physical principles form the framework within which some movements exist. The complementary "What you do" sections allow dancers to experience how those physical analyses can provide them a more efficient means of learning how to carry out those movements. Throughout, the book shows how movements are first artistic expressions, and secondly movements of the body within the framework of easy-to-understand physical principles. Dancers and dance instructors will find in this book an efficient means of improving technical proficiency and growing professional and aesthetic development. For physics and science teachers, the book provides a new and compelling way to draw people into the world of science. And observers and fans of dance will marvel over the beautiful time-stop photography by renowned dance photographers Martha Swope and Gene Schiavone.
