There are thousands of diseases classed as “rare” because they afflict only a small number of people. These patient groups were long ignored by a pharmaceutical industry that judged them too small to provide a return on the investment needed to develop an effective remedy. Forty years ago, a revolution started that transformed the prospects of patients with rare diseases. This book is in part a history, with eyewitness accounts of advances as they occurred and portraits of the pioneering scientists and physicians, tireless activists, and visionary business leaders who made the revolution happen, and it tells deeply personal stories of patients and parents willing to risk new, untried therapies.

The book “Emerging Water Pollutants” examines a wide range of emerging sources off water pollution. This reference is a textbook for students and professionals presenting state-of-the-art learnings on emerging water pollutants, approaches and methods determining the solutions.

Although some politicians and analysts argue that U.S. foreign policy should somehow rise above ideology, the evidence suggests that isn’t possible, according to a historian who edited a new book on the subject.

Block chain, whether public or private, is capable enough to maintain the integrity of transactions by decentralizing the records among involved users. Many companies are exploring how to make this technology more and more efficient service provider for IoT. Block chain and IoT are certainly revolutionary technologies that are changing the world around us. The book received plenteous abstract-articles that were subjected to rigorous review procedures to ensure that the selected articles met the required quality standards.

Augmented intelligence is an alternate approach of artificial intelligence (AI), which emphasize on AI’s assistive role, underlining the fact that cognitive technology is intended to improve human intelligence instead of replacing it. It enhances human skills of reasoning in a robotic system or software including expectancy, educational Mining, and problem solving, recollection & sequencing, and decision-making capabilities. With the collaboration of Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Cognitive Computing it can be highly implemented technologies in near future. It can overcome the human limitations that hinder effective research. This AI layer complements knowledge workers’ efforts and allows them to essentially automate or drastically reduce the time devoted to low-value tasks, while focusing more on higher impact issues. Augmented Intelligence can eliminate time-consuming tasks, freeing up teams to focus on higher value analysis

Smart cities and villages have enhanced the quality of lives of residents. Various computer-assisted technologies have been harnessed for the development of smart cities and villages in order to provide solutions for common and niche urban problems. The development of smart environments has been possible due on advances in computing power and artificial intelligence (AI) that have allowed the deployment of scalable technologies. Artificial Intelligence for Smart Cities and Villages: Advanced Technologies, Development, and Challenges summarizes the role of AI in planning and designing smart solutions for urban and rural environments
