There are many definitions of the word risk. It is a combination of uncertainty and damage a ratio of Itazards to safeguards a triplet combination of event, probability, and consequences or even a measure of economic loss or human injury in terms of both the incident likelihood and tlie magnitude of the loss or injuiy (AICliE, 1989). People face all kinds of risks eveiyday, some voluntarily and otliers involuntarily. Tlierefore, risk plays a very important role in today s world. Studies on cancer caused a turning point in tlie world of risk because it opened tlie eyes of risk scientists and healtli professionals to tlie world of risk assessments. 

It should be emphasized that the area of multivariable control is still in an early stage of development. Many active research programs are underway around the world studying this problem and every year brings many new developments. Therefore the methods and procedures presented in this book should be viewed as a summary of some of the practical tools developed so far. The weaknesses and limitations of the existing methods will be pointed out in the discussion. Improved methods will undoubtedly grow from current and future research. 

The book consists of two main parts. The first part has a more methodological character, it is technique-oriented. In the sections of this part mathematical fundamentals of important newer chemometric methods are comprehensively represented and discussed, and illustrated by typical and environmental analytical examples which are easy to understand. The second part, which has been written in a more problem-orientated format, focuses on case studies from the field of environmental analysis. The discussed examples of the investigation of the most important environmental compartments, such as the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and pedosphere, demonstrate both the power and the limitations of chemometric methods applied to real-world studies. 

In all honesty, the drugs appear to be relatively safe as a class. They have been used for two decades and have been prescribed to many millions of men and women around the world. Studies have demonstrated that they can prevent heart attacks and strokes and save lives by dramatically reducing cholesterol. Obviously, there were terrible problems with cerivastatin (Baycol). And the British medical journal The Lancet has asked for a recall of rosuvastatin (Crestor), citing poor research data and potential side effects involving the liver and the kidneys and muscle damage. Consumer advocates in the United States have also called for FDA to reverse its approval.

The natural analogue sites are areas in which uranium ores have be preset for geologic time periods. In most cases, these sites have not been afiected by human activities, so the record of geologic, long term effects are well preserved. A number of such sites are being studied around the world studies fi om a few sites of different characteristics are reviewed here. 

The Moon has long been thought of as a waterless world. Studies have provided evidence that water ice may be present at the bottom of deep craters near the Moon s south pole that are never exposed to sunlighL The Earth is not the only planet with meteorites on its surface. The rovers Spirit and Opportunity photographed meteorites sitting among the rocks they encountered as they traversed the surface of Mars. 

Professor P.G de Gennes has been one of the most inventive theoretical physicists in the world studying organized molecular systems (liquid crystals, polymers) over the last 30 years (See his list of publications in the Appendix). 

The literary academic market is currently crowded with a range of approaches which seek to understand literary and cultural production outside the analytical frame of the nation state. There are a range of relatively new brands (postcolonialism, diaspora studies, transnationalism, world literature) which in turn draw on and reconfigure older traditions (world-systems theory, area studies, women s and ethnic studies, third world studies.
