Acum mai bine de zece ani, cand m-am asezat in fata acestui calculator, spuneam ca ecranul lui gol ma incita si ma face sa doresc sa astern pe ecran o parte din amintirile care mi-au ramas de-a lungul existentei mele efemere. De atunci au trecut, iata, mai bine de zece ani si, de ceva vreme, incerc sa ma tin de cuvant. Tot atunci, spuneam ca a scrie nu este o mare greutate, a scrie inseamna sa ai curajul sa te asezi la masa de scris, sa incerci sa-ti faci ordine in ganduri, sa alegi cele mai semnificative momente din viata ta, care merita a fi retinute si pe care merita sa le asterni pe hartie. Sa zicem ca am reusit. Lectura placuta. —Dumitru Titi Marina
Handbook of Hinduism in Europe portrays and analyses how Hindu traditions have expanded across the continent, and presents the main Hindu communities, religious groups, forms, practices and teachings. The Handbook does this in two parts, Part One covers historical and thematic topics which are of importance for understanding Hinduism in Europe as a whole and Part Two has chapters on Hindu traditions in every country in Europe. Hindu traditions have a long history of interaction with Europe, but the developments during the last fifty years represent a new phase. Globalization and increased ease of communication have led to the presence of a great plurality of Hindu traditions. Hinduism has become one of the major religions in Europe and is present in every country of the continent.
The letters that Ramanujan wrote to G. H. Hardy on January 16 and February 27, 1913, are two of the most famous letters in the history of mathematics. These and other letters introduced Ramanujan and his remarkable theorems to the world and stimulated much research, especially in the 1920s and 1930s. This book brings together many letters to, from, and about Ramanujan. The letters came from the National Archives in Delhi, the Archives in the State of Tamil Nadu, and a variety of other sources. Helping to orient the reader is the extensive commentary, both mathematical and cultural, by Berndt and Rankin; in particular, they discuss in detail the history, up to the present day, of each mathematical result in the letters. Containing many letters that have never been published before, this book will appeal to those interested in Ramanujan's mathematics as well as those wanting to learn more about the personal side of his life. Ramanujan: Letters and Commentary was selected for the CHOICE list of Outstanding Academic Books for 1996.

The first monograph on Germany's most popular street artist. xoooox was the first German street artist to come to prominence on the international art market.

For example, the artist reinterprets logos of brands such as H...
During the past few years there has been intense research activity in the design, synthesis, and characterization of materials which are formed from molecular precursors, and which have high or metal-like electrical conductivities, i.e. dcr/dT
