Produktinformationen zu „The Practical Treatment of Backache and Sciatica “
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR), time differential perturbed angular correlations (TDPAC), and the Mössbauer effect (ME) have been applied to the study of charge density wave (CDW) systems. These hyperfine techniques provide unique tools to probe the structure and symmetry of commensurate CDWs, give a clear fingerprint of incommensurate CDWs, and are ideally suited for CDW dynamics. This book represents a new attempt in the series 'Physics and Chemistry of Materials with Low-dimensional Structures' to bring together a consistent group of scientific results obtained by nuclear spectroscopy related to CDW phenomena in pseudo-one- and two-dimensional systems. The individual chapters contain: the theory of CDWs in chain-like transition metal tetrachalcogenides; NMR, NQR, TDPAC, and ME investigations of layered transition metal dichalcogenides; NMR studies of CDW-transport in chain-like NbSe3 and molybdenum bronzes; multinuclear NMR of KCP; high resolution NMR of organic conductors. This book is of interest to graduate students and all scientists who want to acquire a broader knowledge of nuclear spectroscopy techniques applied to CDW systems.
Klappentext zu „The Practical Treatment of Backache and Sciatica “
Backache is one of the most common ailments of the human race. Although a distressing condition and a frequent cause of absence from work - it is said that eighteen million working days are lost per year because of back pain - it is amazing how neglected has been the study of its cause and treatment, at least until relatively recent years. This may be reflected in the rarity of photographs of the posterior view of Venus de Milo, as compared with the well-known view from the front! (Figure 1). Undergraduate teaching of backache is scanty, partly because backache is not considered very important as it is rarely due to 'serious' disease and recovery is often spontaneous. However, this is not always the case and a significant number of patients have recur rences and fail to respond to conventional treatment. There are many possible causes of backache and physicians and orthopaedic surgeons continue to disagree as to which are the most Figure 1 The Venus de Milo vii THE PRACTICAL TREATMENT OF BACKACHE AND SCIATICA important factors and hence the best treatment. Proper scientific treatment must await deeper knowledge of the aetiology and pathology; meanwhile, management will have to be empirical, at least to some extent. Nevertheless, there is a strong case for establishing guidelines for treatment. Many physicians feel helpless about the best way to handle an individual patient with backache.
