Graph and Model Transformation
This book is a comprehensive explanation of graph and model transformation. It contains a detailed introduction, including basic results and applications of the algebraic theory of graph transformations, and references to the historical context. Then in the main part the book contains detailed chapters on M-adhesive categories, M-adhesive transformation systems, and multi-amalgamated transformations, and model transformation based on triple graph grammars. In the final part of the book the authors examine application of the techniques in various domains, including chapters on case studies and tool support. The book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in the areas of theoretical computer science, software engineering, concurrent and distributed systems, and visual modelling.
On the Syntactic Composition of Manner and Motion
This crosslinguistic study of the structure of motion predicates argues for the universal syntactic nature of the composition of manner and motion within the verbal constituent. In serial verb languages, manner and motion are overtly represented as two distinct morphosyntactic units, sequentially ordered. Zubizarreta and Oh argue that the same analysis into two units holds for nonserial verb languages, albeit at a more abstract level. They argue further that this abstract level is part of the syntactic component of the grammar.The authors support their argument with a wealth of empirical data and a discussion of significant theoretical issues. Unlike many books and articles that discuss the relation between constructional meaning and the lexicon, On the Syntactic Composition of Manner and Motion examines one phenomenon in detail: the articulation of manner and motion, in three distinct language families—Germanic, Korean, and Romance. The authors' defense of the syntactic approach to constructional meaning will be of interest to linguists and psycholinguists both inside and outside the generative tradition, and to scholars of Romance, Germanic, and Korean languages.
Parapsychology
Many people believe that they have experienced paranormal phenomena and others claim to possess psychic abilities. For the past hundred years or so, researchers have undertaken systematic and scientific work into these alleged experiences and abilities. This collection of articles provides readers with a general sense of the methods used in this research, the findings that have been obtained and the controversies generated by this work. They cover a wide range of issues, including the psychology of paranormal belief, investigations into ghosts and hauntings, laboratory research into extra-sensory perception and psychokinesis, and controlled tests of psychics and mediums. An introductory essay sets each of the selected papers in context and provides additional references for those wishing to delve deeper into the issues surrounding each of the areas covered.
Private Label
Private Label is a powerful and compelling book of international scope on both the dangers and the opportunities posed by the rapid growth in recent years of private label or retail brands. Sales of private labels (those owned, sold and distributed by retailers) grew globally 150% more than other brands in the year 2005, and the private label industry is now worth an estimated one trillion US dollars.Debunking the myths and looking at all possible scenarios, Private Label offers brand managers ways to view private label, not as a threat, but as an opportunity to revitalize their brands. Moreover, Private Label also suggests ways retailers can maximize the potential of their own private labels.Using research data from a range of global sources, as well as utilizing a comprehensive survey the authors carried out with Saatchi & Saatchi X, Private Label is a timely attempt to shed light on the world of private label and its impact on global markets.

A Boy Soldier
It begins with the bloodied scene of a Burmese army base being overrun by the Kachin rebels and it ends with a painful suicide. In between, the over 350 pages long book vividly portrays the almost forgotten suffering of the people of Burma still under a brutal military dictatorship. The fictional story is largely based on, first, the author's childhood growing up as a boy cadet in a military boarding school run by Burmese Army, and later, his over a year stint as a boy soldier in a battalion of Burmese Northern Army in Kachin State. Most of the facts and events from the book are either based on the direct experiences of the author or the experiences of other soldiers from his battalion, then fighting a savage war against Kachin Independence Army, KIA, by the Chinese border, in the early seventies. Read this book. It will leave an unforgettable and sorrowful image of war-torn Burma in your mind .

Cellular Migration and Formation of Neuronal Connections
The genetic, molecular, and cellular mechanisms of neural development are essential for understanding evolution and disorders of neural systems. Recent advances in genetic, molecular, and cell biological methods have generated a massive increase in new information, but there is a paucity of comprehensive and up-to-date syntheses, references, and historical perspectives on this important subject. The Comprehensive Developmental Neuroscience series is designed to fill this gap, offering the most thorough coverage of this field on the market today and addressing all aspects of how the nervous system and its components develop. Particular attention is paid to the effects of abnormal development ...
