Modern Methods of Analytical Mechanics and their Applications
The volume aims at giving a comprehensive and up-to-date view of modern methods of analytical mechanics (general equations, invariant objects, stability and bifurcations) and their applications (rigid body dynamics, celestial mechanics, multibody systems etc.). The course is at an advanced level. It is designed for postgraduate students, research engineers and academics that are familiar with basic concepts of analytical dynamics and stability theory. Although the course deals with mechanical problems, most of the concepts and methods involved are equally applicated to general dynamical systems.
Comprehensive Chiroptical Spectroscopy, Volume 1
This book provides an introduction to the important methods of chiroptical spectroscopy in general, and circular dichroism (CD) in particular, which are increasingly important in all areas of chemistry, biochemistry, and structural biology. The book can be used as a text for undergraduate and graduate students and as a reference for researchers in academia and industry, with or without the companion volume in this set. Experimental methods and instrumentation are described with topics ranging from the most widely used methods (electronic and vibrational CD) to frontier areas such as nonlinear spectroscopy and photoelectron CD, as well as the theory of chiroptical methods and techniques for simulating chiroptical properties. Each chapter is written by one or more leading authorities with extensive experience in the field.
Advances in Cardiomyopathies
This book is a comprehensive and up-to-date overview on the ethiology, pathophysiology, clinical and therapeutic aspects of cardiomyopathies, edited by distinguished clinical researchers, who designed and followed a prospective natural history study on cardiomyopathies. Particular emphasis is given to clinical relevance of basic science advances in the field, from genetics to immunology. Controversial therapeutic issues are discussed. An eminently practical section is devoted to beta-blockade, the most novel medical treatment for heart failure. Non medical treatment options from pacing to cardiomyoplasty, artificial assist devices and transplantation are reviewed.
Gramsci Contested: Interpretations, Debates, and Polemics, 1922--2012
Antonio Gramsci is one of the most globally celebrated figures of twentieth-century Italy, renowned in the world for his contributions to philosophy, political theory, sociology, cultural studies and historiography. Yet his work has been equally discussed, debated and contested within Italy itself, a constant reference point – whether in fervent agreement or angry polemics – for parties and tendencies across the Italian le ft from the late 1910s down to our present day. In this fundamental overview of Gramsci’s reception in Italy and his contested legacy within a range of traditions, Guido Liguori provides a balanced view of the many uses to which Gramsci’s thought has been put, with a particular focus on the important relationship with the Italian Communist Party leader, Palmiro Togliatti. This book was first published in Italian as Gramsci conteso: Storia di un dibattito 1922-1996 by Editori Riuniti, 1996 (2nd Ed. 2012).

Presents recent advances in control, oscillation, and stability theories, spanning a variety of subfields and covering evolution equations, differential inclusions, functi
The Boundaries of Europe
Europe’s boundaries have mainly been shaped by cultural, religious, and political conceptions rather than by geography. This volume of bilingual essays from renowned European scholars outlines the transformation of Europe’s boundaries from the fall of the ancient world to the age of decolonization, or the end of the explicit endeavor to “Europeanize” the world.From the decline of the Roman Empire to the polycentrism of today’s world, the essays span such aspects as the confrontation of Christian Europe with Islam and the changing role of the Mediterranean from “mare nostrum” to a frontier between nations. Scandinavia, eastern Europe and the Atlantic are also analyzed as boundaries in the context of exploration, migratory movements, cultural exchanges, and war. The Boundaries of Europe, edited by Pietro Rossi, is the first installment in the ALLEA book series Discourses on Intellectual Europe, which seeks to explore the question of an intrinsic or quintessential European identity in light of the rising skepticism towards Europe as an integrated cultural and intellectual region.
For Peace in Europe
Le processus d'union européenne voit aujourd'hui un point d'arrêt sur le plan politique et institutionnel, malgré les étapes décisives réalisées après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il reste en effet à affronter des thèmes et des problèmes qui, pendant l'entre-deux-guerres, animèrent le débat entre les pionniers de l'européanisme. Si, à l'époque, leurs propositions restèrent sans suite, ayant une issue destructrice pour la paix et l'Europe, cet héritage idéal si précieux a permis une continuité et de germer par la suite. Ce livre a pour but de présenter une série d'idées, d'initiatives, de programmes, qui entre les deux guerres entendirent promouvoir le maintien d'un ord...
