Overview: This work is a study of the nature and origin of nationality and modern social ideals in the Middle East, particularly Egypt, in the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth centuries. Bringing together writings on political and social reform with literary works, Noorani challenges dominant assumptions about the emergence of modernity. It shows that while nationalist, liberal, and democratic ideals emerged in the Middle East under European influence, these ideals were nevertheless created out of existing cultural values by reformers and intellectuals. The central element of this process, the

Overview: Presents high efficiency computational methods using asymptotic analyses.Demonstrates a novel approach to make use of the different time constants.Includes applications to aerospace systems.Includes sThis book addresses the task of computation from the standpoint of asymptotic analysis and multiple scales that may be inherent in the system dynamics being studied. This is in contrast to the usual methods of numerical analysis and computation. The technical literature is replete with numerical methods such as Runge-Kutta approach and its variations, finite element methods, and so on. H

Overview: The purpose of this modest report is to present in a simplified manner some of the computational methods that have been developed in the last ten years for the solution of optimal control problems. Only those methods that are based on the minimum (maximum) principle of Pontriagin are discussed here. The autline of the report is as follows: In the first two sections a control problem of Bolza is formulated and the necessary conditions in the form of the minimum principle are given. The method of steepest descent and a conjugate gradient-method are dis­ cussed in Section 3. In the rema

Overview: Charts converso non-conformism from the mid-fourteenth century to the seventeenth century across Spain.Reconsiders the work of Diego Velázquez as a converso humanist.Highlights the importance of the c.This book examines the effects of Jewish conversions to Christianity in late medieval Spanish society. Ingram focuses on these converts and their descendants (known as conversos) not as Judaizers, but as Christian humanists, mystics and evangelists, who attempt to create a new society based on quietist religious practice, merit, and toleration. His narrative takes the reader on a journe

Overview: As the coastal human population increases in the United States,there will likely be increasing environmental and socioeconomicpressures on our coastal and estuarine environments. Monitoring thecondition of all our nation‘s coastal and estuarine ecosystems overthe long term is more than any one program can accomplish on its own.Therefore, it is crucial that monitoring programs at all levels(local, state, and federal) cooperate in the collection, sharing, anduse of environmental data. .This volume is the proceedings of the Coastal Monitoring ThroughPartnerships symposium that was held

Overview: The Eighth Annual Research Conference of the American Institute for Cancer Research, held in Washington, D.C., September 3-4, 1998, was on the subject "Colon Cancer Prevention: Dietary Modulation of Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms," with participants representing various disciplines interested in this area. One of the speak­ ers provided an appropriate quote from 17th century physician Thomas Adams: "Pre­ vention is better than healing because it saves the labor of being sick," which aptly describes the need for the prevention of cancer. An overview of normal and abnormal colonic d

Overview: This book charts the significant changes in contemporary Canada‘s literary profile since the mid-1990s, within a context of the new national rhetoric of multiculturalism. By looking closely at a representative range of fictions in English by women from a variety of ethnocultural backgrounds, Howells examines the complexities embedded within Canadian identity. What does ‘Refiguring Identities‘ mean for these writers, given their individual agendas and the multiple affiliation of any woman‘s identity construction? All these writers are engaged in rewriting history across generation, an

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Cognitive Technology: Instruments of Mind Cognitive Technology is the study of the impact of technology on human cog- tion, the externalization of technology from the human mind, and the pragmatics of tools. It promotes the view that human beings should develop methods to p- dict, analyse, and optimize aspects of human-tool relationship in a manner that respects human wholeness. In particular the development of new tools such as virtual environments, new computer devices, and software tools has been too little concerned with the impacts these technolo

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This book introduces a number of selected ideas from the work of Charles Sanders Peirce, the founder of pragmatism. Peirce, pronounced ‘purse’, was born in America in 1839 and died in 1914. He published little in his own lifetime and he continually struggled to become recognised as a respected author with ideas that were highly creative, original and unique. The book begins with an examination of Peirce’s life history. This is followed by an explanation of pragmatism, which states that an understanding of a concept can only be fully grasped by knowing

Overview: Since coronary angioplasty was first practiced by Andreas Gruntzig in 1977, it has rapidly developed into a technique widely used on patients with chronic and acute coronary heart disease. The meeting described in this book was held under the auspices of the working group of our national society, chaired by Prof. Kaltenbach, Frankfurt, and by Prof. Meyer, Mainz, in cooperation with Stanford University. It is an attempt to present various cardiologists‘ appraisals of the current position ofPTCA in clinical medicine. PTCA is far from easy, as its mechanism is critically balanced betwee
