The aim of this book is to give necessary and sufficient conditions for aCToo map to be CTo-stable: the aim is achieved in a wide range of dimensions via a detailed study of the geometry and topology of many classes of "generic" singularities. Written by internationally renowned authors, the book describes original research, virtually none of which has appeared before in either articles or in book form. The methods developed will stimulate fut...

This book, the first on the subject of permanent magnet DC linear motors, provides a comprehensive treatment of these devices, covering theory, construction, design, control and analysis, and applications. It collates all available information on the subject from over the last 25 years, and it will be invaluable to electrical and mechanical engineers as well as post-graduates and students in these fields.

This book contains the proceedings of an international conference on Numerical Methods for Fluid Dynamics held at the University of Oxford in April 1995. It provides a summary of recent research on the computational aspects of fluid dynamics. It includes contributions from many distinguished mathematicians and engineers and, as always, the standard of papers is high. The main themes of the book are algorithms and algorithmic needs arising from...

This is a study of the role of regions in the development of modern nations in Latin America. The book focuses on the Colombian Caribbean between 1870 and 1950. It examines the achievements and shortcomings of arable agriculture and the significance of the livestock industry, the link between town and countryside, the influence of foreign migrants and foreign capital, the relationship between local and national politics, and the extent to whic...

This is the first intensive study of the political development of a major English town during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Perry Gauci examines the activities of the local oligarchy over a period which begins in upheaval, in the aftermath of civil war, and ends in the relative stability of early Georgian England. He brings a fresh perspective to such important episodes as the borough regulation of the 1680s, and the rag...

The bestselling author of You Just Don't Understand has gathered together six of her scholarly essays, including her newest and previously unpublished work in which language and gender are examined through the lens of "sex-class-linked" patterns, rather than "sex-linked" patterns. These essays provide an informative introduction to linguistics.

This highly readable text details the interaction between the mathematical theory of knots and the theories of surfaces and group presentations. It expertly introduces several topics critical to the development of pure mathematics while providing an account of math "in action" in an unusual context. Beginning with a simple diagrammatic approach to the study of knots that reflects the artistic and geometric appeal of interlaced forms, Knots and...

Vergesellschaftung bzw. das Zusammenleben von Bürgern und Nichtbürgern in den Städten des Mittelalters funktionierte über Werte und Normen, in die alle Einwohner - unabhängig davon, ob sie reiche Patrizier oder Tagelöhner waren - eingebunden waren.

Johann Salomo Semler (1725-1791), der wesentliche Anregungen von seinem Lehrer S.J. Baumgarten und der zeitgenössischen Geschichtswissenschaft aufgenommen hat, gilt als Begründer der einflußreichen und bis heute umstrittenen historisch-kritischen Theologie, die Elemente der Traditionsbewahrung und der Traditionskritik in sich vereint. Nachdem zunächst auf dem Hintergrund der Zeitgeschichte die Stadien seines Lebensweges nachgezeichnet wurden, ...

This is a solid representation of criminological articles that are important to the discipline. The important material from each article has been retained, yet an undergraduate won't be overwhelmed. The articles are germane and flow together, a certain consistency in thought is presented to the student, as opposed to interesting but often semi-related articles. This book is accessible and, in several areas, very enjoyable reading." -- A. L. Ma...

This two-volume introduction to differential geometry, part of Wiley′s popular Classics Library, lays the foundation for understanding an area of study that has become vital to contemporary mathematics. It is completely self-contained and will serve as a reference as well as a teaching guide.

Frances Brooke (1724-1789), journalist, translator, playwright, novelist, and even co-manager of a theater, was described as "perhaps the first female novel-writer who attained a perfect purity and polish of style." Today, Brooke is known primarily for The History of Emily Montague, one of the earliest novels about Canada, where she lived for a number of years. But it is her third novel, The Excursion, that is an important example of the fashi...

Being and Value begins with a discussion on metaphysics, showing the vital relationship between human life and the philosophical placement of value, and emphasizing the current transition from the old mechanical worldview to the postmodern alternative inspired by ecology. Being and Value shows how intimately premodern philosophy bound value into the fabric of things, and analyzes the expulsion of value from factual being during the modern peri...
