It?s not a trick question. The fact is they have quite a lot in common. They both have wings. They both fly. And they?re both ideally suited to it. They just do it differently. Why Don?t Jumbo Jets Flap Their Wings? offers a fascinating explanation of how nature and human engineers each arrived at powered flight. What emerges is a highly readable account of two very different approaches to solving the same fundamental problems of moving through the air, including lift, thrust, turning, and landing. The book traces the slow and deliberate evolutionary process of animal flight?in birds, bats, and insects?over millions of years and compares it to the directed efforts of human beings to create the aircraft over the course of a single century. Among the many questions the book answers: Why are wings necessary for flight? How do different wings fly differently? When did flight evolve in animals? What vision, knowledge, and technology was needed before humans could learn to fly? Why are animals and aircrafts perfectly suited to the kind of flying they do? David E. Alexander first describes the basic properties of wings before launching into the diverse challenges of flight and the concepts of flight aerodynamics and control to present an integrated view that shows both why birds have historically had little influence on aeronautical engineering and exciting new areas of technology where engineers are successfully borrowing ideas from animals. 606 $aBirds$xFlight$vPopular works 606 $aAirplanes$vPopular works 606 $aFlying-machines$vPopular works 606 $aAnimal flight$vPopular works 606 $aAeronautics$vPopular works 615 0$aBirds$xFlight 615 0$aAirplanes 615 0$aFlying-machines 615 0$aAnimal flight 615 0$aAeronautics 676 $a629.13 700 $aAlexander$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0276132 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780832603321 996 $aWhy Don't Jumbo Jets Flap Their Wings$93694865 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04667nam 22005895 450 001 9910254474203321 005 20251113204102.0 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-28776-8 035 $a(CKB)3710000001072398 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-28776-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4812457 035 $a(PPN)19887183X 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001072398 100 $a20170224d2017 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAdenocarcinoma of the Esophagogastric Junction $eFrom Barrett's Esophagus to Cancer /$fedited by Simone Giacopuzzi, Andrea Zanoni, Giovanni de Manzoni 205 $a1st ed. 2017. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (XV, 280 p. 74 illus., 62 illus. in color.) 311 08$a3-319-28774-5 311 08$a3-319-28776-1 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index. 327 $aForeword -- Preface -- 1 Epidemiology and risk factors -- 2 Barrett's esophagus: pathogenesis and prevention -- 3 Surveillance in Barrett's esophagus and Dysplasia -- 4 Ablation techniques for Barrett's esophagus and Dysplasia -- 5 Endoscopic resection for Barrett's esophagus and Dysplasia -- 6 7th Edition AJCC/UICC Staging: Esophagus and Esophagogastric Junction -- 7 Siewert Classification of Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagogastric Junction: still in or already out ? -- 8 Preoperative work- up: conventional radiology, ultrasonography, CT scan and MRI -- 9 Role of PET/CT and MRI in the prediction of response to neoadjuvant treatment -- 10 Molecular biology in the prediction of response to neoadjuvant treatment -- 11 Pathological response to neoadjuvant treatment: more questions than answers -- 12 Hospital volume and centralization in EGJ cancer -- 13 Patient selection and tailored treatment principles -- 14 How to treat EGJ cancer: indications and treatment strategy -- 15 Chemotherapy in EGJ cancer.-16 Chemoradiation in EGJ cancer -- 17 Signet ring carcinoma in EGJ: what is it? -- 18 Morbi- mortality and treatment of complications -- 19 Long term results in surgery alone and multimodal treatments -- 20 Open or minimally invasive?

As is appropriate in the era of multidisciplinary and multimodal treatment, the contributions of all the various specialists involved cooperatively in the treatment of EGJ cancer are thoroughly described. Detailed attention is also paid to the significance of preneoplastic lesions, such as Barrett esophagus. The final part of the book represents a surgical atlas documenting the techniques used in the EGJ region, with superb color images and stepwise description of procedures. Against the background of the rapidly increasing incidence in EGJ cancer, especially evident in Western countries, there is a need for greater uniformity in management strategies, which currently vary significantly across the world. This book provides appropriate guidance that will assist all practitioners involved in the diagnosis and treatment of EGJ cancers, including surgeons, oncologists, and radiotherapists. 606 $aCancer$xTreatment 606 $aOncology 606 $aGastroenterology 606 $aSurgery 606 $aCancer Therapy 606 $aOncology 606 $aGastroenterology 606 $aGeneral Surgery 615 0$aCancer$xTreatment. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aGastroenterology. 615 0$aSurgery. 615 14$aCancer Therapy. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aGastroenterology. 615 24$aGeneral Surgery. 676 $a616.994 702 $aGiacopuzzi$b Simone$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aZanoni$b Andrea$cMD,$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDe Manzoni$b G$g(Giovanni),$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254474203321 996 $aAdenocarcinoma of the Esophagogastric Junction$91538815 997 $aUNINA
