There is a worldwide effort towards the development of bioanalytical devices that can be used for detection, quantification and monitoring of specific chemical species. In this context, biosensors represent an emerging trend in the diagnostics industry. A biosensor is a device that has a biological sensing element either intimately connected to or integrated within a transducer. The aim is to produce a digital electronic signal that is proportional to the concentration of a specific chemical or a set of chemicals. Biosensors are specific, rapid, cost-effective and easy to use devices that can be employed with minimal sample treatment. Biosensors have applications in many areas such as biotechnology, healthcare, pollution monitoring, food and agriculture product monitoring, the pharmaceuticals industry and defense. This reference text is devoted to the principles and applications of biosensors and meets the needs of academic institutes, research laboratories and the rapidly developing biosensor industry.Discusses novel ways that can be used to fabricate biosensors for a variety of applicationsBiosensors have applications in many scientific areasContributors are experts in their respective fields of research

A General History of Horology describes instruments used for the finding and measurement of time from Antiquity to the 21st century. In geographical scope it ranges from East Asia to the Americas. The instruments described are set in their technical and social contexts, and there is also discussion of the literature, the historiography and the collecting of the subject. The book features the use of case studies to represent larger topics that cannot be completely covered in a single book. The international body of authors have endeavoured to offer a fully world-wide survey accessible to students, historians, collectors, and the general reader, based on a firm understanding of the technical basis of the subject. At the same time as the work offers a synthesis of current knowledge of the subject, it also incorporates the results of some fundamental, new and original research.

Astrolabes and Quadrants from Medieval England

A Catalogue and Study of Their Development and Influence

The book presents a detailed description of all known astrolabes and quadrants made in England in the Middle Age, placing these instruments within their historical context. It analyses the socio-cultural and intellectual situation in England in the Early Middle Ages, which allowed astronomical instrument manufacture to develop and flourish in the fourteenth century. With additional consideration of the political situation in England and northern Europe during this period, including the Black Death and the beginning of the 100 Years War, the text also develops a series of interlocked hypotheses regarding the instruments' makers, owners and commissioners, revealing the influence of English instruments in continental Europe. The tools used to make these instruments are also described: these are largely undated and unsigned, but by reverse-engineering their designs and studying their metallurgy for the first time it is possible to assign likely dates of manufacture. Including seven specialized appendices and an extensive bibliography, the book is a detailed and copiously illustrated catalogue of all surviving Medieval English astrolabes and quadrants placed in their historical, social, and technical context.

Seeking Natural Knowledge in Later 17th Century England

Anthony Turner offers a view of the social and cultural context of the collecting of natural history in late 17th century England, constructed around the biography of Robert Plot. Seeking Natural Knowledge in Later 17th Century England seeks in particular to show the continuing intrinsic connection between chorography, antiquarianism, natural history and even, though to a lesser degree, applied mathematics, and the interest of such matters for the University of Oxford. An introductory chapter places chorography in its European cosmological context before looking at details of its study — in both its antiquarian and practical aspects — in Early Modern England, and the methods by which it was pursued there. Parallels are drawn with similar activity in France and Germany.In the following chapters, through an account of the work of Robert Plot, the way in which his writings established a new form of chorographical natural history investigation and writing is described, and how this work fed into, and in part provoked, the foundation of the Ashmolean Museum as a non-collegiate university institution in Oxford. Activity in the Museum during its early years is described, as is the work of the Philosophical Society that met within it and was closely associated. A final chapter describes the influence of Robert Plot and his successors up to the very early 18th century. Seven appendices supply an essential documentary underpinning for the work, offering new material on the burial of Plot, a detailed bibliography of his works, and an account of his portraits, before completing Gunther's documentation of the Oxford Society and its activities by the publication of several documents concerning it that have hitherto remained in manuscript.

Becoming an effective strength and conditioning practitioner requires the development of a professional skills set and a thorough understanding of the scientific basis of best practice. Aimed at advanced students and novice-to-expert practitioners, in this book the authors explore the latest scientific evidence and apply it to exercise selection and programming choices across the full range of areas in strength and conditioning, from strength and power, speed and agility, to aerobic conditioning. Since the first edition of this text was written extensive research has expanded the supporting evidence base that provides the theoretical foundation for each chapter. In addition, some areas that were previously under-researched have now been expanded and some key concepts have been further challenged. Each chapter is written by experts with experience in a wide variety of sports, including both applied and research experience, ensuring this concise but sophisticated textbook is the perfect bridge from introductory study to effective professional practice. While advanced concepts are explored within the book, the coach must not forget that consistency in the application of the basic principles of strength and conditioning is the foundation of athletic development. Advanced Strength and Conditioning: An Evidence- based Approach is a valuable resource for all advanced students and practitioners of strength and conditioning and fitness training.

Luxury Trades and Consumerism in Ancien Régime Paris

Since the 16th century, Paris has been a leading arbiter of taste and the ultimate source of luxury goods for Europe and the world. However, the origins of the luxury trades of Paris and their role in the wider economic development of France and Europe have been relatively little examined by historians. This volume provides an entry into some of the many questions raised by the growth of the luxury trades, by bringing together eight detailed case studies of specific trades with five more wide-ranging and theoretical contributions. It therefore offers both the results of entirely new research and a range of new perspectives and methodological reflections on the subject as a whole. Essential to economic and social historians of Early Modern France, the book will also be of interest to all students of material culture.

Each chapter is broken down to describe the physiological and biomechanical demands of the sport or occupation, as well as common injuries, before presenting strength, conditioning, and prehabilitation programming that maps back to this. Additionally, relevant testing and monitoring protocols are described to ensure training can be adapted accordingly. Finally, the book opens with several chapters exploring the background of strength and conditioning, along with a detailed look at periodisation and programming, and testing and monitoring. These chapters will further support the reader’s understanding as they navigate through the subsequent content.Innovative, comprehensive and truly international in scope, the Routledge Handbook of Strength and Conditioning is vital reading for all strength and conditioning students and an invaluable reference for strength and conditioning coaches and trainers.
