Towers of Ivory and Steel
Israeli universities have long enjoyed a reputation as liberal bastions of freedom and democracy. Drawing on extensive research and making Hebrew sources accessible to the international community, Maya Wind shatters this myth and documents how Israeli universities are directly complicit in the violation of Palestinian rights. As this book shows, Israeli universities serve as pillars of Israel's system of oppression against Palestinians. Academic disciplines, degree programs, campus infrastructure, and research laboratories all service Israeli occupation and apartheid, while universities violate the rights of Palestinians to education, stifle critical scholarship, and violently repress student dissent. Towers of Ivory and Steel is a powerful expose of Israeli academia's ongoing and active complicity in Israel's settler-colonial project.
The Electron Glass
Presenting an up-to-date report on electronic glasses for researchers in condensed matter physics.
Fairytale Romance
A painfully shy young woman meets a decorated war veteran at a Medieval history reenactment, and they share an immediate bond. But can her love heal his wounded spirit?
Perspectives of Mesoscopic Physics
Professor Yoseph (Joe) Imry, an early initiator of mesoscopic physics, has been among the leaders in this field for several decades. This book contains articles by leading (theoretical and experimental) scientists working in nanoscience and in related fields. Most of the contributions, consisting both reviews of the state of the art and new results, summarize invited talks given at two conferences held in honor of Imry's 70th birthday: the 101st Statistical Mechanics Conference (Rutgers University, May 10?12, 2009), and Perspectives of Mesoscopic Physics (Weizmann Institute of Science, May 31?June 1, 2009). This book covers a broad range of active research in nanoscience, including topics like quantum interference, decoherence, electron correlations, nano superconductors and nano magnets, nonequilibrium and glassy behavior.
Soft Interfaces
This volume is an introduction to interfacial phenomena. It collects the lecture notes from a one month Summer school in Les Houches. The courses and the notes are intended to be especially useful for master and PhD students as well as young researchers.
Thinking Probabilistically
An introductory text providing the reader with a thorough background to the rich world of applications of stochastic processes.
Soft Matter
"Soft matter science is an interdisciplinary field at the interface of physics, biology, chemistry, engineering, and materials science. It encompasses colloids, polymers, and liquid crystals as well as rapidly emerging topics such as metamaterials, memory formation and learning in matter, bioactive systems, and artificial life. This textbook introduces key phenomena and concepts in soft matter from a modern perspective, marrying established knowledge with the latest developments and applications. The presentation integrates statistical mechanics, dynamical systems, and hydrodynamic approaches, emphasizing conservation laws and broken symmetries as guiding principles while paying attention to computational and machine learning advances. The book features introductory chapters on fluid mechanics, elasticity, and stochastic phenomena and also covers advanced topics such as pattern formation and active matter. it discusses technological applications as well as relevant phenomena in the life sciences and offers perspectives on emerging research directions"--
Undercover
Undercover captures the common and uncommon events of daily life with clarity and effervesence. These are lyric poems that breathe, grieve, dance and sing - always addressing the joy that lies under the cover of everyday concerns.
Regret-Free Living
So often, when people reach their life's end, they begin compiling a long list of regrets. Those regrets generally relate to time not spent with family or to risks never taken. Scot Sellers, in his Regret-Free Living, offers ten secrets to living a regret-free life. From determining your giftedness to building strong relationships to dumping the "as soon as" mentality, Sellers guides his readers through an energizing journey that helps bring about a life you likely never thought possible
