Registers of the Births, Marriages, and Deaths of the "Eglise Françoise À la Nouvelle York,"
Of the several Huguenot establishments founded in the United States, that of New York is the first in date and, in most respects, the first in importance. The records in this work comprise the existing baptismal, marriage, and death records of the French Church of New York from 1688 to 1804, together with a few other records belonging to the New Rochelle "Annex." Although the records have not been translated into English, the language of the entries is so simple that even those who do not read French can easily understand it. The records of the church cover the important period of immigration after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. An extensive index contains every name in the records, including maiden names of the brides and names of witnesses, sponsors, parents, and pastors. This reprint is excerpted from "Collections of the Huguenot Society of America," Volume 1 (1886).
Approximate Computing Techniques
This book serves as a single-source reference to the latest advances in Approximate Computing (AxC), a promising technique for increasing performance or reducing the cost and power consumption of a computing system. The authors discuss the different AxC design and validation techniques, and their integration. They also describe real AxC applications, spanning from mobile to high performance computing and also safety-critical applications.
Military Intelligence Operator
Determining people’s true motives and character is a process that begins in early childhood and never ceases. The process of converting information into intelligence is no different. Myths and assumptions have to be continuously challenged in order to avoid misconceptions, separate fact from fiction, and develop the best course of action. Perception and reality are rarely aligned. It should come as no surprise, therefore, to learn that some of the people and the underlying methodology employed within the military intelligence establishment may not be who or what they seem. This illuminating insider’s look at the life of an intelligence operative and at military life in general, chronicle...
Canada's Army
In this revised and updated third edition, one of Canada's leading historians covers the history of the Canadian military to the present day.
An Enemy We Created
To this day, the belief is widespread that the Taliban and al-Qaeda are synonymous, that their ideology and objectives are closely intertwined, and that they have made common cause against the West for decades. In An Enemy We Created, Alex Strick van Linschoten and Felix Kuehn debunk this myth and reveal the much more complex reality that lies beneath it. Drawing upon their unprecedented fieldwork in Afghanistan, as well as their Arabic, Dari, and Pashtu skills, the authors show that the West's present entanglement in Afghanistan is predicated on the false assumption that defeating the Taliban will forestall further terrorist attacks worldwide. While immersing themselves in Kandahar society,...
Software and Compilers for Embedded Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Software and Compilers for Embedded Systems, SCOPES 2004, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in September 2004. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from close to 50 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on application synthesis, data flow analysis, data partitioning, task scheduling, and code generation.
Membrane Physiopathology
The need for publishing acomprehensive review ofa number ofdifferent membrane pathologiesofmuscleand non-musclecells inillnesses ranging from diabetes toheart disease and cancer lies on to the fact that there are several books dealing with the properties ofnormal cell membranes, although there are very few books focussing on the abnormal membrane behavior. Since the membrane is the critical outer barrier of a cell, this membrane could be the first structure to be affected in some diseases. Research is advancing at the cellular level at a very rapid rate. We can now address questions such as: "How and by what is the mechanism underlying membrane ion channel and receptor dysfunction leading to...
Growth of the Gastrointestinal Tract (1990)
This book provides an up-to-date summary of the large body of data regarding gastrointestinal hormones and growth factors involved in the development and maintenance of the architecture and physiological functions of the different organs of the digestive tract. The regulation of growth and differentiation in the stomach, small intestine, colon, and pancreas is reviewed by experts in developmental and adult physiology, as well as in pathophysiology of diseases involving each organ. The book provides essential reference material for gastroenterologists, medical and university libraries, and investigators and graduate students of gastrointestinal physiology.
