Dit nieuwe leerboek maakt een duidelijke koppeling tussen de theoretische basisconcepten en de klinische praktijk. Met behulp van diverse aansprekende klinische voorbeelden, verdiepingsstof en alledaagse casuïstiek behandelen de auteurs de eigenschappen en functies van honderden moleculen en cellen (zowel de hoofdrolspelers als de figuranten).

In Leerboek immunologie wordt het complexe immuunsysteem van de mens helder en overzichtelijk uiteengezet. In de eerste helft van het boek ligt de nad...

Awarded the Literature Prize of the VCIThis comprehensive textbook describes the synthesis, characterization and technical and engineering applications of polymers. Polymers are unique molecules and have properties different from any other class of materials. We encounter them in everyday life, not only in the form of the well-known, large-volume plastics such as PE or PP or the many other special polymers, some of which are very specifically modified but also in nature as polymeric biomolecu...

This textbook covers the entire Business Process Management (BPM) lifecycle, from process identification to process monitoring, covering along the way process modelling, analysis, redesign and automation. Concepts, methods and tools from business management, computer science and industrial engineering are blended into one comprehensive and inter-disciplinary approach. The presentation is illustrated using the BPMN industry standard defined by the Object Management Group and widely endorsed by...

This book presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the theory (physical principles), design, and practical implementations of various sensors for scientific, industrial, and consumer applications. This latest edition focuses on the sensing technologies driven by the expanding use of sensors in mobile devices. These new miniature sensors will be described, with an emphasis on smart sensors which have embedded processing systems.

The chapter on chemical sensors has also been expanded ...
