Overview: Describes how The Netherlands moved to the forefront of the development of radio astronomy.Expands literature on the subject to include political and strategic aspects in addition to the underlying scRadio astronomy was born during the Second World War, but as this book explains, the history of early Dutch radio astronomy is in several respects rather anomalous in comparison to the development of radio astronomy in other countries. The author describes how these very differences led the Netherlands to become one of the world leaders in radio astronomy. Dominated by the Leiden astrono

Overview: The full revision of this text has presented a number of problems. The basic data have changed little since the second edition, although they have been much extended in depth and in detail. To some extent this has helped to shorten the present text as many controversial issues which needed to be presented at some length have now been resolved so that only the final conclusions need to be given. However, it remains the case that very few new group frequencies have emerged over the past fifteen years and the emphasis of group-frequency studies has tended to shift away from the identifi

Overview: Provides detailed background on environmental chemistry, diffusion, and transport.Examines transport and fate in single media as well as inter-media transfer of chemicals.Covers transport and fate in What happens when a chemical is released into the environment? It diffuses, disperses, adsorbs, reacts, and/or changes state.  To predict and analyze this process, the mathematics of diffusion is applied to lakes, rivers, groundwater, the atmosphere, the oceans, and transport between these media.  A sustainable world requires a deep understanding of the transport of chemicals through the

Overview: Provides a diverse overview of the global range of rehabilitative and reintegrative approaches and practices.Includes consideration of the experience of minority populations and women.Considers the po.This handbook provides a unique overview of rehabilitation as practiced internationally in criminal justice. Through the contributions of a diverse group that includes, among others, academics (some of whom are former practitioners), research students, a judge, and a probation chief, it reflects common features of criminal justice in different countries and documents their diversity and

Overview: Includes supplementary material: For many years, Bill Jorgensen and Lional Salem‘s Organic Chemist‘s Book ofOrbitals was the standard work on qualitative MO-theory in Erlangen. It provided the basic principles as weH as MO-plots of exactly the orbitals that we needed to understand the effects that we were investigating. How­ ever, 25 years after its publication, the Organic Chemist‘s Book of Orbitals is essentiaHy unknown to the current generation of chemistry students, although qualitative MO-theory has become a standard too1. This and the new technical possibilities made possible b

Overview: Underscores China’s anti-poverty strategy which emphasizes fostering self-reliance.Shows how China’s fostering of self-reliance has galvanized bottom-up support.Covers based on over 3 decades of exten.This open access book presents the findings of the author’s 3 decades of studying China’s evolving anti-poverty strategies. It argues that much of the billions that nations spend yearly on economic aid is used inefficiently or to treat the symptoms but not the root causes of poverty. China, however, has evolved an effective sustainable alternative by providing the means for self-relianc

Overview: Taurine, or 2-aminoethane sulfonic acid, has long been known to be the major organic product formed from the breakdown of the sulfur-containing amino acids, methionine and cysteine. It is excreted as such in the urine or as bile acid conjugates in the bile. Research over the last 25 years, however, has uncovered an amazing variety of phenomena involving taurine. Despite the fact that the mechanism of action of taurine in some of these phenomena remains to be elucidated, it is clear that taurine is of far more physiological relevance than being the mere metabolic debris of sulfur amin

Overview: Examines the Brontës’ work in a fresh historical and thematic context.Introduces Branwell Brontë’s work, and the Brontë juvenilia more broadly, into the critical literary canon.Provides an interdiscip.This book explores the representations of militarisim and masculinity in Charlotte and Branwell Brontë’s youthful writings. It offers insight into how the siblings understood and reimagined conflict (both local and overseas) and its emotional legacies whilst growing up in early-nineteenth-century Britain. Their writings shed new light on a period little discussed by social and military

Overview: Offers a self-contained introduction to congruence lattices of finite lattices.Presents major research results from the last 90 years.Incorporates the author‘s signature "Proof-by-Picture" methodThe congruences of a lattice form the congruence lattice.  Over the last several decades, the study of congruence lattices has established itself as a large and important field with a great number of interesting and deep results, as well as many open problems.  Written by one of the leading experts in lattice theory, this text provides a self-contained introduction to congruences of finite la

Overview: An unusually wide scope of developments in Harmonic Analysis.Contributions by leading experts in each area.A unique panorama of the development of italian harmonic Analysis, a plus for the new INdAM-SThis book illustrates the wide range of research subjects developed by the Italian research group in harmonic analysis, originally started by Alessandro Figà-Talamanca, to whom it is dedicated in the occasion of his retirement. In particular, it outlines some of the impressive ramifications of the mathematical developments that began when Figà-Talamanca brought the study of harmonic anal

Overview: Presents theory and applications of Type-2 Fuzzy LogicWe describe in this book, new methods for building intelligent systems using type-2 fuzzy logic and soft computing techniques. Soft Computing (SC) consists of several computing paradigms, including type-1 fuzzy logic, neural networks, and genetic algorithms, which can be used to create powerful hybrid intelligent systems. In this book, we are extending the use of fuzzy logic to a higher order, which is called type-2 fuzzy logic. Combining type-2 fuzzy logic with traditional SC techniques, we can build powerful hybrid intelligent s

Overview: This constitutes the ultimate reference book in the field of temporal databases.This book grew out of a Dagstuhl seminar organized by the volume editors in June 1997. After the seminar, submissions for this book were solicited both from and beyond the group of participants. A peer review process followed, from which only original papers of the highest quality on the state of the art in the field were accepted for presentation in the book. The volume is divided into parts on temporal database infrastructure, temporal query languages, and advanced applications. A comprehensive bibliogr

Overview: Exploration of the history of materials science and human society written for lay readers.Is authored by a materials scientist and based off of an Honors College course at Washington State University..This book examines ten materials—flint, clay, iron, gold, glass, cement, rubber, polyethylene, aluminum, and silicon—explaining how they formed, how we discovered them, why they have the properties they do, and how they have transformed our lives. Since the dawn of the Stone Age, we have shaped materials to meet our needs and, in turn, those materials have shaped us..The fracturing of f
