Traditionally, the Conservative Party has been regarded as a vote-gathering machine rather than a vehicle for ideas. This book redresses the balance through a series of biographical essays examining the thought of those who have contributed most to the development of ideas within the party. The chapters benefit from archival research and interviews with leading Conservatives.

In particular the author covers concepts related to information, classical computing, logic, reversible computing, quantum mechanics, quantum computing, thermodynamics and some artificial intelligence and biology, all approached from the viewpoint of computer sciences. The book begins by asking the following nontrivial question: what is a bit? The author then discusses logic, logic gates, reversible computing and reversible architectures, and the concept of disorder. He then tries to establish the relationship between three essential questions that justify quantum approaches in computer sciences: the energy required to perform a real-life computation, the size of current processors, and the reversibility of quantum operations. Based on these concepts, the author establishes the conditions that justify the use of quantum techniques for certain kinds of computational tasks, and he uses formal descriptions and formal argumentations to introduce key quantum mechanical concepts and approaches. The rest of the book is formally different, focusing on practical issues, including a discussion of remarkable quantum algorithms in a treatment based on quantum circuit theory. The book is valuable for graduate students in computer science, and students of other disciplines who are engaged with physical models of information and computing. 606 $aComputers 606 $aQuantum computers 606 $aQuantum theory 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aTheory of Computation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16005 606 $aQuantum Computing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14070 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 615 0$aComputers. 615 0$aQuantum computers. 615 0$aQuantum theory. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aTheory of Computation. 615 24$aQuantum Computing. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a004 700 $aMoret-Bonillo$b Vicente$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064561 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254841403321 996 $aAdventures in Computer Science$92538886 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05769nam 22006615 450 001 9910765490203321 005 20251009073447.0 010 $a981-9961-63-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-99-6163-4 035 $a(CKB)28853379500041 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC30943623 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL30943623 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-99-6163-4 035 $a(EXLCZ)9928853379500041 100 $a20231114d2023 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aEthical Innovation for Global Health $ePandemic, Democracy and Ethics in Research /$fedited by Chieko Kurihara, Dirceu Greco, Ames Dhai 205 $a1st ed. 2023. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Springer,$d2023. 215 $a1 online resource (331 pages) 311 08$a9789819961627 327 $a1 Introduction to Ethical innovation for global health: pandemic, democracy and ethics in research.

It presents ethical considerations in current day clinical trials and new trends of ethics in research. It also describes the historical context, illustrates the process in alternative paradigms to achieve democracy after World War II, how the framework of ethics in research was established in different regions, and policies implemented to protect research participants from the exploitation of new drug development. The book is organized into three themed parts: relevant constructions from Brazil, South Africa, Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan; historical and international perspectives of principles of ethics in research; and alternative frameworks of clinical development and innovation. Ethical Innovation for Global Health: Pandemic, Democracy and Ethics in Research is an informative resource for academic researchers, the global pharmaceutical industry, regulators, civil society and other role players involved in global health. It is contributed to by leaders in global policy development in research ethics, and experts in drug development activities with its trajectory being global health. The COVID-19 pandemic, as a global disaster, necessitated not only socio-economic but also cultural transformation. While effective vaccines were developed under a successful new methodology, there remains inequity of distribution of these vaccines globally. The book re-engages with the notion of the primacy of distributing results of scientific innovation to those who most require the benefits. 606 $aMedical ethics 606 $aBioethics 606 $aPharmacovigilance 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aPharmaceutical chemistry 606 $aMedical Ethics 606 $aBioethics 606 $aDrug Safety and Pharmacovigilance 606 $aHealth Policy 606 $aPharmaceutics 615 0$aMedical ethics. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aPharmacovigilance. 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 0$aPharmaceutical chemistry. 615 14$aMedical Ethics. 615 24$aBioethics. 615 24$aDrug Safety and Pharmacovigilance. 615 24$aHealth Policy. 615 24$aPharmaceutics. 676 $a174.2 700 $aKurihara$b Chieko$01448982 701 $aGreco$b Dirceu$01448983 701 $aDhai$b Ames$01448984 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765490203321 996 $aEthical Innovation for Global Health$93644963 997 $aUNINA
