daughter Lenore Shoham helped put together. It draws extensively on an analysis of judgment heuristics that was developed in collaboration with Shane Frederick (Kahneman & Frederick, 2002). Shane Frederick, David Krantz, and Daniel Reisberg went well beyond the call of friendly duty in helping with this effort. Craig Fox, Peter McGraw, Daniel Oppenheimer, Daniel Read, David Schkade, Richard Thaler, and my wife, Anne Treisman, offered many insightful comments and suggestions. Kurt Schoppe…

Preface Like any human language, C++ provides a way to express concepts. If successful, this medium of expression will be significantly easier and more flexible than the alternatives as problems grow larger and more complex. You can’t just look at C++ as a collection of features; some of the features make no sense in isolation. You can only use the sum of the parts if you are thinking about design, not simply coding. And to understand C++ this way, you must understand the problems…

gene-for-gene concept Many major resistance genes operate in a gene-forgene way. For each resistance gene in the host there is a corresponding avirulence gene in the pathogen (Flor, 1971), and only the corresponding avirulence gene can initiate the hypersensitive reaction (HR) leading to incompatibility. Resistance and avirulence inherit in most cases in a dominant manner, susceptibility and virulence in a recessive way. The HR is now known to result from the specific interaction…

of the examples in this book are drawn from personal relationships and business situations; certainly most of us can identify with these scenarios. PART 1 S I G N S OF D E C E P T I O N This book picks up where others leave off, going well beyond observing body language clues. The first part offers a catalogue of forty-six clues to deception, divided into seven sections. Some of the clues involve the fundamentals of body language, while others use more advanced techniques and…

video streams”. Thus it is important to take a minute to understand some of the elements indispensable for the provision of IPTV services. Firstly, compression technologies. Currently, television signals can reach consumers via different ways, such as terrestrial broadcasting, cable, satellite and physical means like VCR tapes and DVD discs and no matter if analogue or digital such signals consume large quantities of bandwidth. For instance, analogue video signal uses 4 MHz of…

and types of casting alloys available to the dental practitioner have changed significantly over the past 25 years. Before the deregulation of the price of gold in the United States in the early 1970s, gold-based alloys, with gold comprising over 70 weight percentage (wt %) of the composition, were virtually the only type of alloy used for fixed prostheses, with or without ceramic veneers [1]. Fluctuations in the price of gold in the early 1980s (and more recently palladium) and the need…

registered flows may also misrepresent current economic phenomena. Indeed, international supply chains that characterise global manufacturing, particularly since the 1990s, are also affecting trade in services, as firms in industrialised countries look beyond the boundaries of the developed world to lower costs and access new talents. 5 In addition, users of trade statistics often face issues of consistency and interpretation, especially when numbers are taken from different statistical…
