Overview: Discrete sections cover functions in philosophy of biology, and psychology and technology.Covers the evolving debates between etiological views on function, and those which are more systemic.Features .This? volume handles in various perspectives the concept of function and the nature of functional explanations, topics much discussed since two major and conflicting accounts have been raised by Larry Wright and Robert Cummins’ papers in the 1970s. Here, both Wright’s ‘etiological theory of functions’ and Cummins’ ‘systemic’ conception of functions are refined and elaborated in the ligh

Overview: Provides a complete set of mechanical models.Introduces the most relevant damping mechanisms.Maximizes reader insight into sensing, transduction, and noiseNow in an updated second edition, this classroom-tested textbook introduces and summarizes the latest models and skills required to design and optimize nanomechanical resonators, taking a top-down approach that uses macroscopic formulas to model the devices. The authors cover the electrical and mechanical aspects of nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) devices in six expanded and revised chapters on lumped-element model resonators,

Overview: Abraham Lincoln‘s iconic phrase, ‘the better angels of our nature‘, revealed his belief that the noblest qualities of humanity would heal a divided nation. In .Frontiers in Spiritual Leadership., an interdisciplinary group of leading scholars from the University of Richmond explore these noble qualities and how leaders such as Lincoln make that expression possible. They review the landscape of spiritual leadership and the spiritual principles that are fundamental to effective and inspired leadership, emphasizing the values of love, forgiveness, purpose, trust, sacrifice, equality, an

Overview: This English edition has an additional chapter "Elements of Homological Al- gebra". Homological methods appear to be effective in many problems in the theory of algebras; we hope their inclusion makes this book more complete and self-contained as a textbook. We have also taken this occasion to correct several inaccuracies and errors in the original Russian edition. We should like to express our gratitude to V. Dlab who has not only metic- ulously translated the text, but has also contributed by writing an Appendix devoted to a new important class of algebras, viz. quasi-hereditary al

Overview: The past decade has seen a dramatic acceleration of activity and interest in phenomena surrounding lanthanide and actinide organo- metallic compounds. Around the world, active research in organo-f- element synthesis, chemistry, catalysis, crystallography, and quantum chemistry is in progress. This activity has spanned a remarkably wide range of disciplines, from synthetic/mechanistic inorganic and organic chemistry to radiochemistry, catalytic chemistry, spectroscopy (vibra- tional, optical, magnetic resonance, photoelectron, Mossbauer), X-ray and neutron diffraction structural analy

Overview: The Farm War of the early 1980s was rooted in the political economy of agriculture, but it was a crisis for the international trading system. The war was evident in disruptions on the farm and in world markets, in conflicts among major governments, and in disagreements in international organizations. Wolfe shows how and why battles over agricultural protectionism were largely resolved through the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations, demonstrating that the global economy is not self-regulating: it needs institutions if it is to be stable.978-0-230-39008-9Series ISSN 2662-2483 Series E-
