Overview: This series was organized to provide a forum for review papers in the area of corrosion. The aim of these reviews is to bring certain areas of corrosion science and technology into a sharp focus. The volumes of this series are published approximately on a yearly basis and each contains three to five reviews. The articles in each volume are selected in such a way as to be of interest both to the corrosion scientists and the corrosion technologists. There is, in fact, a particular aim in juxtaposing these interests because of the importance of mutual interaction and interdisciplinarity

Overview: Considers autism in cultural, historical, and political contexts.Represents a collaboration between North American psychological anthropology and the South American intellectual tradition of CollectivAutism is a complex phenomenon that is both individual and social. Showing both robust similarities and intriguing differences across cultural contexts, the autism spectrum raises innumerable questions about self, subjectivity, and society in a globalized world. Yet it is often misrepresented as a problem of broken bodies and disordered brains. So, in 2015, a group of interdisciplinary s

Overview: „Anarchie“ ist ein schillernder Begriff, der zu positiven wie negativen Stellungnahmen herausfordert: Die Abwesenheit von Herrschaft, Macht und Gesetz empfinden manche als befreiend und glückverheißend, andere als bedrohlich und zerstörerisch. Im 19. Jahrhundert entwickelt sich das Konzept der Anarchie zur ernstzunehmenden gesellschaftspolitischen Alternative und ist seither nie mehr ganz verschwunden. Es stellt sich daher die Frage, inwieweit sich anarchistische Ideen in Literatur und Kunst widerspiegeln und welche Bedeutung wiederum den Künsten für die Verbreitung anarchistischer K

Overview: Shows how modern allegory derived from allegory in the Enlightenment.Explores how Enlightenment writers adapted allegory in context.Draws on classics of the genre, 18th-century texts and periodicalsThis Palgrave Pivot argues for the significance of allegory in Enlightenment writing. While eighteenth-century allegory has often been dismissed as an inadequate form, both in its time and in later scholarship, this short book reveals how Enlightenment writers adapted allegory to the cultural changes of the time. It examines how these writers analyzed earlier allegories with scientific pre

Overview: In Volume 1, A Monte Carlo Primer - A Practical Approach to Radiation Transport (the "Primer"), we attempt to provide a simple, convenient, and step-by-step approach to the development, basic understanding, and use of Monte Carlo methods in radiation transport. Using the PC, the Primer begins by developing basic Monte Carlo codes to solve simple transport problems, then introduces a teaching tool, the Probabilistic Framework Code (PFC), as a standard platform for assembling, testing, and executing the various Monte Carlo techniques that are presented. This second volume attempts to c
