Alain Briot states that, "The personality of the photographer must be present in the image for an artistic photograph to have value." And in this book he sets out to teach the things that are essential in achieving this goal. Following his successful first book, Mastering Landscape Photography, Briot goes beyond the conventional rules of composition and takes on a fresh, new approach to teaching the art of photography. Based upon his personal experiences as an artist, teacher, and photographer, he opens new doors to the reader-doors leading to new ways of seeing and composing images. Briot

Understanding dissipative dynamics of open quantum systems remains a challenge in mathematical physics. This problem is relevant in various areas of fundamental and applied physics. From a mathematical point of view, it involves a large body of knowledge. Significant progress in the understanding of such systems has been made during the last decade. These books present in a self-contained way the mathematical theories involved in the modeling of such phenomena. They describe physically relevant models, develop their mathematical analysis and derive their physical implications. In Volume I th

Séduits par l’idée de commenter l’expérience clinique qu’ils ont acquise au cours de leur carrière, les auteurs ont délibérément abordé leur spécialité par la description des symptômes qui donnent leurs titres aux chapitres. Ils ont néanmoins décrit les diagnostics différentiels, les maladies en cause et les traitements. Après un chapitre consacré à l’examen du patient, incluant les détours de l’interrogatoire, les douleurs lombaires ou scrotales sont analysées. Les auteurs ont ensuite abordé les troubles mictionnels et leurs causes. Les particularités des hémat

Complications in Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, written by leading international experts in their fields, closely examines possible complications following surgery of the cerebrovascular arteries, the thorax and upper limbs, and other commonly operated sites. Various complications (both common and uncommon) are identified and described, along with discussions of how to treat, and better yet, prevent them. Results of clinical trials are presented, as well as the personal experience of dozens of contributing authors. Clinical and surgical specialists interested in vascular and endovascular s
