The theory of vector spaces and matrices is an essential part of the mathematical background required by physicists. Most books on the subject, however, do not adequately meet the requirements of physics courses-they tend to be either highly mathematical or too elementary. Books that focus on mathematical theory may render the subject too dry to hold the interest of physics students, while books that are more elementary tend to neglect some topics that are vital in the development of physical theories. In particular, there is often very little discussion of vector spaces, and many books introduce matrices merely as a computational tool.Vector Spaces and Matrices in Physics fills the gap between the elementary and the heavily mathematical treatments of the subject with an approach and presentation ideal for graduate-level physics students. After building a foundation in vector spaces and matrix algebra, the author takes care to emphasize the role of matrices as representations of linear transformations on vector spaces, a concept of matrix theory that is essential for a proper understanding of quantum mechanics. He includes numerous solved and unsolved problems, and enough hints for the unsolved problems to make the book self-sufficient.Developed through many years of lecture notes, Vector Spaces and Matrices in Physics was written primarily as a graduate and post-graduate textbook and as a reference for physicists. Its clear presentation and concise but thorough coverage, however, make it useful for engineers, chemists, economists, and anyone who needs a background in matrices for application in other areas.

Evolution

This work discusses concepts and ideas regarding innate and acquired immunity, imucosal immune systems, T-cell and B-cell activation, maturation and development, role of T-cell receptor and class I MHC, kidney damage in auto-immune disease, and factors involved in rheumatoid arthritis. Other topics covered include the mechanisms involved in auto-immune disease based on clinical findings, immune response to diseases, and strategies in production of new vaccines against pathogens. Recently proposed concepts on immune tolerance, T-cell energy, NK-cell tolerance, HLA delivered peptides for immunosuppression and the newly discovered oncogens, tumour, antigens, and immune therapy strategy for tumours are also included.

This text attempts to lay emphasis on the whys of mathematics rather than on the hows. The material covered is the same as is generally found in a first course in calculus, namely, the study of functions of a real variable, but the approach is different. A conscious effort is made to give strong motivation for the abstract concepts covered and thereby help a beginner overcome most of the aversion one has for abstraction. For example, instead of merely giving the epsilon-delta definition of a limit, a whole section is devoted to explain how the definition evolved and why it is a most natural formulation of the basic concept of a limit. This should help the student get over the clumsiness of the definition, which can be quite repulsive otherwise. Even though the emphasis is more on the whys than on the hows of mathematics, the latter are not entirely ignored. There is adequate exposure to the techniques through the exercises. The answers to these exercises will enable sincere students to acquire the hows as well. As a result, the book should appeal to a variety of readers. It can be used as a regular text for a first course in calculus. On the other hand, those who already have a working knowledge of calculus will benefit by gaining deeper insights. Yet another class of students who may find the book useful, are those who want to pursue mathematics as their major subject. Some students experience difficulty making the transition from calculus to analysis. The treatment given here will enable them to get over the rough edges.

Brain-like problem solving techniques used by neuro-computers are suited to several problems that are hard for conventional architectures.  This book, an intermediate level exposition of the exciting world of neuro-computers, presents several case studies using as a benchmark real-world sensor data sets to demonstrate how the new learning paradigm can be used by a neuro-computer designer to evolve solutions that have better fault-tolerance and generalization properties. New genetic operators are introduced that consistently outperform the conventional crossover and mutation based genetic algorithms.  Essentially self-contained, this book would be a valuable addition for all engineering students and can be the starting point for new research in this area.
