Overview: What have we learned from the first experiments performed at the reconstructed Globe on Bankside? What light have recent productions shed on the way Shakespeare intended his plays to be seen? Written by the Leverhulme Fellow appointed to study and record actor use of this new-old playhouse, here is the first analytical account of the discoveries that have been made in its important first years, in workshops, rehearsals and performances. It shows how actors, directors and playgoers have responded to the demands of ‘historical‘ constraints (and unexpected freedoms) to provide valuable

Overview: An update on the medical literature regarding sickle cell disease.Provides scientific basis to explain the clinical aspects of sickle cell disease.Co-authored by international clinicians and scientistAlthough sickle cell anemia was the first molecular disease to be identified, its complex and fascinating pathophysiology is still not fully understood. A single mutation in the beta-globin gene incurs numerous molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to the plethora of symptoms associated with the disease. Our knowledge regarding sickle cell disease mechanisms, while still not

Overview: On behalf of the organizing committee for EuroSSC 2007, we would like to welcome you to the proceedings of the second European Conference on Smart Sensing and Context. Although only in its second year, EuroSSC has already begun to attract significant interest from researchers in the rapidly evolving area of embedded sensing and intelligent objects in support of smart surroundings. Building on the success of the previous conference held in Enschede, The Netherlands, EuroSSC 2007 aimed to reflect two complementary viewpoints: a technology-driven viewpoint which encompasses the diversit

Overview: This book develops an innovative Irish-Scottish postcolonial approach by galvanizing Emmanuel Levinas‘ ethics with the socio-cultural category of the ‘subaltern‘. It sheds new light on contemporary Scottish and Irish fiction, exploring how these writings interact with the recent restructuring of the three state-formations in Ireland and Scotland.978-1-349-31741-7978-0-230-30879-4

Overview: First text to study singular differential games and $H_{inf}$ control problems using the regularization approach.Presents material in self-contained chapters, allowing them to be studied independentlyThis monograph is devoted to the analysis and solution of singular differential games and singular $H_{inf}$ control problems in both finite- and infinite-horizon settings. Expanding on the authors’ previous work in this area, this novel text is the first to study the aforementioned singular problems using the regularization approach. .After a brief introduction, solvability conditions a

Overview: Most comprehensive and up-to-date theory and state-of-the-art algorithms of spectral methods for application in fluid dynamics and complex domains.Authors pioneered Spectral Methods in Fluid Dynamics .Spectral methods, particularly in their multidomain version, have become firmly established as a mainstream tool for scientific and engineering computation. While retaining the tight integration between the theoretical and practical aspects of spectral methods that was the hallmark of their 1988 book, Canuto et al. now incorporate the many improvements in the algorithms and the theory o
