Vladimir Solovyev and Max Scheler: Attempt at a Comparative Interpretation
This comparative study of the works of Vladimir Solovyev and Max Scheler explores some of the areas in which their thoughts seem to bear a direct relation to one another. The author shows, however, that such a correlation is not based on any factual influence of the earlier Russian on the later philosophy of Scheler. The similarities in their spiritual and philosophical development are significant as the author demonstrates in his chapter on systematic philosophy. This comparison is not just of historical interest. It is meant to contri bute to a better understanding between the East and the West. The author provides a basis for future discussions by establishing a common area of inquiry and...
Russian Religious Thought
Contains 11 essays on four seminal thinkers from the modern Russian tradition: Vladimir Soloviev (1853-1900), Pavel Florensky (1882-1937), Sergei Bulgakov (1871-1944), and Semen Frank (1877-1950). Despite their various approaches they all share the predominant dual focus of most Russian religious thought on the doctrines of Incarnation and Deification, and the attendant stress on moral and social issues, the philosophy of history, and the relation of religion and culture. Paper edition (unseen), $21.95. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Look to the Wolves
Can Bob Cowan survive the icy killing fields of the Russian Civil War? It is 1919, and Bob Cowan – Lieutenant Commander, RNR – is serving with the Royal Navy in the Black Sea. A fluent Russian-speaker, he has been tasked to rescue two young British girls caught up in the Russian Civil War, working as nurses with the White Army. News of defeat at the Front reaches Cowan, but the importance of his mission is unchanged; he must push on – into the snowbound killing fields... Exciting, fast-paced and with meticulous historical research, Look to the Wolves is a masterpiece of action which will appeal to fans of Douglas Reeman and Philip McCutchan.

Approaches to Language and Culture
This book provides an overview of approaches to language and culture, and it outlines the broad interdisciplinary field of anthropological linguistics and linguistic anthropology. It identifies current and future directions of research, including language socialization, language reclamation, speech styles and genres, language ideology, verbal taboo, social indexicality, emotion, time, and many more. Furthermore, it offers areal perspectives on the study of language in cultural contexts (namely Africa, the Americas, Australia and Oceania, Mainland Southeast Asia, and Europe), and it lays the foundation for future developments within the field. In this way, the book bridges the disciplines of cultural anthropology and linguistics and paves the way for the new book series Anthropological Linguistics.
Electronic Structure and Magnetism of Complex Materials
Recent developments in electronic structure theory have led to a new understanding of magnetic materials at the microscopic level. This enables a truly first-principles approach to investigations of technologically important magnetic materials. Among the advances treated here have been practical schemes for handling non-collinear magnetic systems, including relativity, and an understanding of the origins and role of orbital magnetism within band structure formalisms. This book provides deep theoretical insight into magnetism, mahneatic materials, and magnetic systems. It covers these recent developments with review articles by some of the main originators of these developments.
Handbook for Highly Charged Ion Spectroscopic Research
The spectroscopy of highly charged ions plays a key role in numerous areas of physics, from quantum electrodynamics (QED) and parity nonconservation (PNC) testing to fusion and plasma physics to x-ray astronomy. Handbook for Highly Charged Ion Spectroscopic Research brings together many of the techniques and ideas needed to carry out state-of-the-a
