The Cambridge Handbook of Information Technology, Life Sciences and Human Rights
(2022)
Debates on the human-rights implications of new and emerging technologies have been hampered by the lack of a comprehensive theoretical framework for the complex issues involved. This volume provides that framework, bringing ...
Chapter 3 Persuasive technologies and the right to mental liberty
(2022)
The outline of this chapter is as follows. In section 2 we provide a further definition of
PTs, and present some possibilities that PTs offer for the smart correctional rehabilitation of
criminal offenders. Next, in ...
Nonequilibrium Quantum Field Theory
(2009)
Bringing together the key ideas from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and powerful methodology from quantum field theory, this 2008 book captures the essence of nonequilibrium quantum field theory. Beginning with the ...
Dynamics of the Standard Model
(2014)
Describing the fundamental theory of particle physics and its applications, this book provides a detailed account of the Standard Model, focusing on techniques that can produce information about real observed phenomena. ...
Mathematics of Quantization and Quantum Fields
(2013)
Unifying topics that are scattered throughout the literature, this book offers a definitive review of mathematical aspects of quantization and quantum field theory. It presents both basic and advanced topics of quantum ...
Conformal Methods in General Relativity
(2017)
This book offers a systematic exposition of conformal methods and how they can be used to study the global properties of solutions to the equations of Einstein's theory of gravity. It shows that combining these ideas with ...
Weak Scale Supersymmetry
(2007)
Supersymmetric models of particle physics predict new superpartner matter states for each particle in the Standard Model. These superpartners will have wide ranging implications, from cosmology to observations at high ...
Supersymmetry and String Theory
(2016)
This text is an introduction to the fields of experimental and theoretical particle physics and cosmology. The book focuses on three principal areas: supersymmetry, string theory, and astrophysics and cosmology. The chapters ...
Hadrons and Quark–Gluon Plasma
(2002)
Before matter as we know it emerged, the universe was filled with the primordial state of hadronic matter called quark–gluon plasma. This hot soup of quarks and gluons is effectively an inescapable consequence of our current ...
