Chapters explore key historical processes related to the theory of general relativity, in addition to presenting a thorough treatment of the relevant science behind these episodes. A broad historiographical framework is introduced first, thus providing the broad context in which the given computational approaches and case studies occurred. Written by an international and interdisciplinary group of expert authors, these chapters will bring readers to a more complete understanding of Einstein’s theory. Specific topics include: Social and citation networks The Fock-Infeld dispute Wheeler’s turn to gravitation theory The position of general relativity in theories of fundamental interactions The pursuit of a quantum theory of gravity The emergence of dark matter in relation to cosmological models Institutional frameworks for gravitational wave search in Europe The Renaissance of General Relativity in Context is ideal for historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science. Students and researchers in physics will also be interested in the topics explored.Einstein studies ;Volume 16.General relativity (Physics)General relativity (Physics)530.11Blum AlexanderLalli RobertoRenn JuÌrgen1956-MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWBOOK996418439503316Renaissance of General Relativity in Context1885386UNISA03874nam 22006495 450 991025394240332120200701101053.03-319-60016-810.1007/978-3-319-60016-1(CKB)3710000001631535(MiAaPQ)EBC4947036(DE-He213)978-3-319-60016-1(PPN)203847660(EXLCZ)99371000000163153520170812d2017 u| 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierNon-medical and illicit use of psychoactive drugs /edited by Suzanne Nielsen, Raimondo Bruno, Susan Schenk1st ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (209 pages) illustrations, tablesCurrent Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences,1866-3370 ;343-319-60014-1 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.Preface -- Preclinical effects of antipsychotic drugs -- Contribution of Impulsivity and Serotonin Receptor Neuroadaptations to the development of an MDMA (“ecstasy”) Substance Use Disorder -- The Abuse Potential of Prescription Opioids in Humans – Closing in on the First Century of Research -- Over-the-Counter codeine –from therapeutic use to dependence, and the grey areas in between -- Injection of pharmaceuticals designed for oral use: Harms experienced and effective harm reduction through filtration -- Misuse of Methylphenidate -- Misuse and Associated Harms of Quetiapine, and Other Atypical Antipsychotics -- Benzodiazepines -- Recent trends in alcohol and other drug use among police detainees in New Zealand, 2010–2015 -- The Impact of Legalizing and Regulating Weed: Issues with Study Design and Emerging Findings in the U.S.This volume is devoted to descriptions of non medical as well as medical uses for some drugs that have typically, or not so typically, been associated with drug abuse. One major objective of this book is to identify costs and benefits of drug abuse. The book highlights drugs including 3,4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), cannabinoids, opioids and methylphenidate because of their well-documented potential for abuse and provides new and emerging evidence of their potential to treat some chronic disease states alongside the potential consequences of exposure. .Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences,1866-3370 ;34NeurosciencesExperiential researchPharmacologyPsychiatryNeuroscienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18006Psychology Researchhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20000Pharmacology/Toxicologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007Psychiatryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53003Neurosciences.Experiential research.Pharmacology.Psychiatry.Neurosciences.Psychology Research.Pharmacology/Toxicology.Psychiatry.615.788Nielsen Suzanneedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBruno Raimondoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSchenk Susanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910253942403321Non-medical and illicit use of psychoactive drugs2215691UNINA
