Unsettling Accounts
An Argentine naval officer remorsefully admits that he killed thirty people during Argentina’s Dirty War. A member of General Augusto Pinochet’s intelligence service reveals on a television show that he took sadistic pleasure in the sexual torture of women in clandestine prisons. A Brazilian military officer draws on his own experiences to write a novel describing the military’s involvement in a massacre during the 1970s. The head of a police death squad refuses to become the scapegoat for apartheid-era violence in South Africa; he begins to name names and provide details of past atrocities to the Truth Commission. Focusing on these and other confessions to acts of authoritarian state ...
New Directions in Statistical Physics
This book provides a unique insight into the latest breakthroughs in a consistent manner, at a level accessible to undergraduates, yet with enough attention to the theory and computation to satisfy the professional researcher Statistical physics addresses the study and understanding of systems with many degrees of freedom. As such it has a rich and varied history, with applications to thermodynamics, magnetic phase transitions, and order/disorder transformations, to name just a few. However, the tools of statistical physics can be profitably used to investigate any system with a large number of components. Thus, recent years have seen these methods applied in many unexpected directions, three of which are the main focus of this volume. These applications have been remarkably successful and have enriched the financial, biological, and engineering literature. Although reported in the physics literature, the results tend to be scattered and the underlying unity of the field overlooked.
One Hundred Years at the Intersection of Chemistry and Physics
This volume, occasioned by the centenary of the Fritz Haber Institute, formerly the Institute for Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, covers the institute's scientific and institutional history from its founding until the present. The institute was among the earliest established by the Kaiser Wilhelm Society, and its inauguration was one of the first steps in the development of Berlin-Dahlem into a center for scientific research. Its establishment was made possible by an endowment from Leopold Koppel, granted on the condition that Fritz Haber, well-known for his discovery of a method to synthesize ammonia from its elements, be made its director. The history of the institute has largely ...

Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection
Since 1998, RAID has established its reputation as the main event in research on intrusion detection, both in Europe and the United States. Every year, RAID gathers researchers, security vendors and security practitioners to listen to the most recent research results in the area as well as experiments and deployment issues. This year, RAID has grown one step further to establish itself as a well-known event in the security community, with the publication of hardcopy proceedings. RAID 2000 received 26 paper submissions from 10 countries and 3 continents. The program committee selected 14 papers for publication and examined 6 of them for presentation. In addition RAID 2000 received 30 extended...

A beneficial compendium for those dealing with pulmonary complications of HIV infection, Human Immunodeficiency Virus and the Lungsurveys current knowledge on the epidemiology of HIV infection examines HIV's effects on lung cells in addition to immune functions within the lung details individual pulmonary infections in terms of etiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and prophylaxis emphasizes the indications and limitations of various diagnostic techniques, including invasive and noninvasive testing and screening considers noninfectious pulmonary complications from neoplastic and inflammatory to immunological disorders advises on the management of individuals in intensive care with the aid of morbidity and mortality data assesses common recommendations as well as provides clear guidelines for preventing the transmission of infectious pathogens and more!
The Frey Sander Connections Germans from Russia
This book provides the genealogical connection of the Frey, Sander and extended families. The genealogical record is traced from the late 1500’s of central Europe to the Russian Steppes near what is now Odessa Ukraine and finally to the Prairies of North America. Brief historical descriptions are included to provide some insight into the reasons why the families relocated. The major part of the book traces the ancestral lines through the years and includes church and civil records as genealogical prime sources.
