The New Red Data Book

How (un)reliable are the Red Book Uranium Resource Data?

For more than 40 years, the Nuclear Energy Agency of the OECD countries and the International Atomic Energy Administration of the United Nations have published a biannual document with the title “Uranium Resources, Production and Demand”. This book, known as the “Red Book”, summarizes data about the actual and near future nuclear energy situation and presents the accumulated worldwide knowledge...

The Red Book through the ages.

The first edition of the Red Book was published in 1938. Since then, there have been numerous advances in the fields of infectious diseases and public health that have decreased morbidity and mortality of infants, children, and adolescents. Over the years, emerging pathogens and disease complexes have been described, sophisticated diagnostic techniques developed, advances in antimicrobial thera...

Red cell membrane deformability: new data.

Red cells arrested by fine fibers and subjected to drag forces in a moving stream of fluid can be stressed beyond the point of rupture. The technique, which is basically an in vitro analogue of the microangiopathic hemolytic state, thus permits a study of red cell behavior over the entire range of stress that the membrane can withstand. Measurements made by this approach show an exponential rel...

Book Review: The New Sovereignty

Report of the Committee on Infectious Diseases (The Red Book)

in previous sections; however, individual sections present enough background information for extensive reference to previous chapters to be unnecessary for the reader reviewing a specific concept. Chapter 1 contains a brief description of hemodynamics, including its historical and theoretical development and methods of measurement. Chapters 2 through 4 present a treatment of steady flow in the ...
