Of interest to anyone with an interest in medical history and anthropology, as well as the Himalayan world, this volume not only identifies the individuals involved and describes how they helped to spread this form of imperialist medicine, but also discusses its reception by a local people whose own medical practices were based on an entirely different understanding of the world"--Publisher's description Table of Contents; Preface; Ch. 1: On the topological complexity of three languages; Ch. 2: Nondeterministic controllers of nondeterministic processes; Ch. 3: Reachability in continuous-time Markov reward decision preocesses; Ch. 4: Logical theories and compatible operations; Ch. 5: Forest algebras; Ch. 6: Automata and semigroups recognizing infinite words; Ch. 7: Deterministic graph grammars; Ch. 8: Quantifier-free definable graph operations preserving recognizability; Ch. 9: First-order definable languages; Ch. 10 : Matrix-based complexity functions and recognizable picture languages |

Their Footprints Remain uses archival sources, personal letters, diaries, and oral sources in order to tell the fascinating story of how this once-new medical system became imbedded in the Himalayas. Of interest to anyone with an interest in medical history and anthropology, as well as the Himalayan world, this volume not only identifies the individuals involved and describes how they helped to spread this form of imperialist medicine, but also discusses its reception by a local people whose own medical practices were based on an entirely different understanding of the world"--Publisher's description Table of Contents; Preface; Ch. 1: On the topological complexity of three languages; Ch. 2: Nondeterministic controllers of nondeterministic processes; Ch. 3: Reachability in continuous-time Markov reward decision preocesses; Ch. 4: Logical theories and compatible operations; Ch. 5: Forest algebras; Ch. 6: Automata and semigroups recognizing infinite words; Ch. 7: Deterministic graph grammars; Ch. 8: Quantifier-free definable graph operations preserving recognizability; Ch. 9: First-order definable languages; Ch. 10 : Matrix-based complexity functions and recognizable picture languages 1800 - 1999 fast Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1800-2000 gnd rswk-swf Missions and Missionaries / Bhutan / History Missions and Missionaries / Sikkim / History Missions and Missionaries / China / Tibet Autonomous Region / History History, 19th Century / Bhutan History, 19th Century / Sikkim History, 19th Century / China / Tibet Autonomous Region History, 20th Century / Bhutan History, 20th Century / Sikkim History, 20th Century / China / Tibet Autonomous Region Medicine, Oriental Traditional / Bhutan / History Medicine, Oriental Traditional / Sikkim / History Medicine, Oriental Traditional / China / Tibet Autonomous Region / History MEDICAL / History bisacsh Society and social sciences bicssc Sociology and anthropology bicssc Society and culture: general bicssc Humanities bicssc History bicssc Medicine fast HISTORY / General bisacsh Geschichte Medizin Medicine History 19th century Medicine History 20th century Östliche Philosophie (DE-588)4125271-8 gnd rswk-swf Medizin (DE-588)4038243-6 gnd rswk-swf Akkulturation (DE-588)4000911-7 gnd rswk-swf Kolonisation (DE-588)4128651-0 gnd rswk-swf Volksmedizin (DE-588)4078940-8 gnd rswk-swf Tibet (DE-588)4060036-1 gnd rswk-swf Tibet (DE-588)4060036-1 g Kolonisation (DE-588)4128651-0 s Volksmedizin (DE-588)4078940-8 s Akkulturation (DE-588)4000911-7 s Geschichte 1800-2000 z 1\p DE-604 Medizin (DE-588)4038243-6 s Östliche Philosophie (DE-588)4125271-8 s 2\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=224163 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
