The Mars Experiment
The setting is the year 2034. Man's first landing onto the mysterious red planet is about to take place. As preparations for the touchdown on Mars go into full swing, a mix of military personnel and scientists are working together. They wish to not only ensure the mission is a success, but that it fulfills man's expectations and dreams of what Earth's eternally silent neighbor can mean to life in the universe, and will surpass man's desire to uncover its secrets as well. The author has daydreamed about Mars since he was 10 years old, when he first saw the red planet through his brother's telescope. He has always been inspired by astronomy and a love of science fiction, bringing all the excitement of a young boy's creativity to The Mars Experiment. Author Paul C. Vinci's current dream is to live long enough to see mankind safely land on Mars. He lives in the small town of Rocky Hill, Connecticut. Vinci holds degrees in English literature and creative writing, and has an imagination to match. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/PaulCVinc

Handbook of Econometrics
As conceived by the founders of the Econometric Society, econometrics is a field that uses economic theory and statistical methods to address empirical problems in economics. It is a tool for empirical discovery and policy analysis. The chapters in this volume embody this vision and either implement it directly or provide the tools for doing so. This vision is not shared by those who view econometrics as a branch of statistics rather than as a distinct field of knowledge that designs methods of inference from data based on models of human choice behavior and social interactions. All of the essays in this volume and its companion volume 6A offer guidance to the practitioner on how to apply the methods they discuss to interpret economic data. The authors of the chapters are all leading scholars in the fields they survey and extend.Handbook of Econometrics is now available online at ScienceDirect — full-text online from volume 1 onwards.*Part of the renowned Handbooks in Economics Series *Updates and expands the exisiting Handbook of Econometrics volumes *An invaluable reference written by some of the world's leading econometricians.

Foundation Engineering Handbook
More than ten years have passed since the first edition was published. During that period there have been a substantial number of changes in geotechnical engineering, especially in the applications of foundation engineering. As the world population increases, more land is needed and many soil deposits previously deemed unsuitable for residential housing or other construction projects are now being used. Such areas include problematic soil regions, mining subsidence areas, and sanitary landfills. To overcome the problems associated with these natural or man-made soil deposits, new and improved methods of analysis, design, and implementation are needed in foundation construction. As society de...
