Overview: Much is known about the media‘s role in conflict, but far less is known about the media‘s role in peace. Graham Spencer‘s study addresses this deficiency by providing a comparative analysis of reporting conflicts from around the world and examining media receptiveness to the development of peace.

Overview: The only textbook style volume on time-dependent DFT available.The year 2004 was a remarkable one for the growing ?eld of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). Not only did we celebrate the 40th - niversary of the Hohenberg-Kohn paper, which had laid the foundation for ground-state density functional theory (DFT), but it was also the 20th - niversary of the work by Runge and Gross, establishing a ?rm footing for the time-dependent theory. Because the ?eld has grown to such prominence, and has spread to so many areas of science (from materials to biochemistry), we feel tha

Overview: Written by experts, Gives a modern approach, Comprehensive in ScopeIn an age of unprecedented corporate and political control over life inside of educational institutions, this book provides a needed intervention to investigate how the economic and political elite use traditional artifacts in K-16 schools to perpetuate their interests at the expense of minoritized social groups.

Overview: When WILHELM RUHLAND developed his plan for an Encyclopedia of Plant Physiol­ ogy more than three decades ago, biology could still be conveniently subdivided into classical areas. Even within plant physiology, subdivisions were not too difficult to make, and general principles could be covered sufficiently in the two introductory volumes of the Encyclopedia on the physical and chemical basis of cell biology. But the situation changed rapidly even during the 12-year publication period of the Encyclopedia (1955-1967). The new molecular direction of genetics and structural research on b

Overview: Like many novel ideas, the idea for this volume and its predecessor arose over lunch in the cafeteria of the old Wellcome Institute. On an atternoon in Sept- ber 1988, Dorothy and Roy Porter, and I, sketched out a plan for a set of conf- ences in which scholars from a variety of disciplines would explore the emergence of modern medical ethics in the English-speaking world: from its pre-history in the quarrels that arose as gentlemanly codes of etiquette and honor broke down under the pressure of the eighteenth-century "sick trade," to the Enlightenment ethics of John Gregory and Thom

Overview: In a relational database the information is recorded as rowsin tables. However, in many practical situations theavailable information isincomplete and the values for somecolumns are missing. Yet few existingdatabase managementsystems allow the user to enter null values in thedatabase.This monograph analyses the problems raised by allowing nullvalues in relational databases. The analysis coverssemantical,syntactical, and computational aspects.Algorithms for query evaluation,dependency enforcement andupdates in the presence of null values are alsogiven.The analysis of the computational
