Murder at Mossy Oak
Back in the sixties, eight year old Sadie Marchant and her brother find the body of their friend lying in the bathroom of their church just after Sunday services. Reeling from the shock of this homicide in the small community of Clarence,South carolina, there are two more murders in a matter of weeks. Something sinsiter is going on in this rurual community of farmers and blue collar workers and Sheriff Jehu Calhoun is stumped. Before the murders are solved secrets are revealed that shatter the congregants of Mossy Oak church and the residents of Clarence.
Acoustical Holography
The latest progress in acoustical holography and related research areas, generally involving imaging by means of acoustic waves, was discussed and treated in depth at the Fourth International Symposium on Acoustical Holography, held in Santa Barbara, California on April 10-12, 1972. This volume contains the proceedings of that symposium. As the papers presented here indicate, a num ber of startling advances have been realized in the state-of-the-art since publication of Volume 3 of Acoustical Holography. Progress has been partic ularly impressive in the field of acoustical imag ing. The Fourth International Symposium represents something of alandmark conference in this respect. The scope of ...
Acoustical Imaging
Volume 15 follows the format of earlier volumes in the series. The contents give the next installment in the varied aspects of acoustical imaging research. On this occasion, some emphasis was placed on the rela tionship of l1nderwater acoustics to acoustical imaging and a volume of papers under the title "Underwater Acoustics Proceedings from the 12th ICA Symposium held in Halifax," will appear at roughly the same time as this volume. There is no duplication in these volumes but they are in terlinked, at least to the extent that papers from common conference sessions appear in one or another volume. An innovation is the review paper presented at the beginning of the volume "A History of Acoustical Imaging," by G Wade. This fairly detailed review comes at a point in time when so much has been achieved and in some cases passed by, that a record of some of the earlier work might help to keep a balance with the large collections of research papers which have appeared in the many volumes.
Acoustical Imaging
How to produce images with sound has intrigued engineers and scientists for many years. Bats, whales and dolphins can easily get good mental images with acoustical energy, but humans have little natural ability for obtaining such images. The history of engineering and science, however, is an impressive demonstration that technological solutions can compensate, and then some, for deficiencies of nature in humans. Thus with the proper technology, we too can "see" with sound. Many methods involv ing ultrasonic energy can be employed to enable us to do so. Few of these methods are at all reminiscent of the acoustic systems employed by animals. Pulse-echo, phase-amplitude and amplitude-mapping ap...
Acoustical Holography
This volume presents the proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Acoustical Holography, which was held at the Newporter Inn, Newport Beach, on 29-31 July 1970. The symposium was sponsored by the Douglas Advanced Research Laboratories, McDonnell Douglas Corporation, and the Acoustical Society of America. Twenty papers were presented and these each appear as a chapter in this volume. The chapters are grouped into five sections. The sections are I Medical and Biolog ical, II Bragg Imaging, III Nondestructive Testing, IV Underwater and Long Wavelength, and V Theory and Methods. The reader is cautioned only to use the sec tional titles as a rough guide. For instance, the reader intere...
The Brant Boys
It may be difficult to climb to the top of the world, but it's impossible to get down. Through the Himalayas, through Nepal--trekking through these pages you will laugh, love, learn. You will be battered, beaten, bruised. With each rocky step, each frosty breath, each innocent smile, each respectful "namaste," you will slowly shed your old skin and rewrap yourself in a pattern so different that your friends won't recognize you when you've returned. Neither will you. Join me on a journey through ancient culture, timeless traditions, and natural marvels. Tour a spectacular kingdom of brilliant peaks, lush farmland, and rushing rivers where the welcoming smiles from natives are as pervasive as their own poverty and illiteracy. Experience the joy inherent in simplicity. Experience Nepal. Once you've gone, you can never go home.
Acoustical Imaging
This volume represents the proceedings of the 21 st International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging, which was held at the Surf and Sand Hotel in Laguna Beach, California, March 28-30, 1994. These unique and highly interdisciplinary series of symposiums have met at intervals of roughly 18 months over the past 30 some years. In general these meetings are devoted to all aspects and all fields of imaging that use acoustics. The meetings are usually small, with 100 to 200 participants, and stimulate useful interchanges across disciplines. These are the only regular meetings where the major researchers in all areas of acoustical imaging can come together to interchange ideas and new concepts. The A...
