Magnetoconvection
Leading experts present the current state of knowledge of the subject of magnetoconvection from the viewpoint of applied mathematics.
Dynamical Chaos
The leading scientists who gave these papers under the sponsorship of the Royal Society in early 1987 provide reviews of facets of the subject of chaos ranging from the practical aspects of mirror machines for fusion power to the pure mathematics of geodesics on surfaces of negative curvature. The papers deal with systems in which chaotic conditions arise from initial value problems with unique solutions, as opposed to those where chaos is produced by the introduction of noise from an external source.

The Solar Tachocline
Helioseismology has enabled us to probe the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun, including how its rotation varies in the solar interior. The unexpected discovery of an abrupt transition - the tachocline - between the differentially rotating convection zone and the uniformly rotating radiative interior has generated considerable interest and raised many fundamental issues. This volume contains invited reviews from distinguished speakers at the first meeting devoted to the tachocline, held at the Isaac Newton Institute. It provides a comprehensive account of the understanding of the properties and dynamics of the tachocline, including both observational results and major theoretical issues, involving both hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic behaviour. The Solar Tachocline is a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students in astrophysics, heliospheric physics and geophysics, and the dynamics of fluids and plasmas.
Sunspots: Theory and Observations
This volume contains the invited papers presented at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on the Theory of Sunspots, held in Cambridge, England, 22-27 September 1991. The idea of holding this Workshop first arose during the Solar Optical Telescope work shop on Theoretical Problems in High-Resolution Solar Physics in Munich in 1985. At that meeting, separate discussion groups were formed to consider specific topics in solar physics. The discussion group on sunspots recommended that there be a meeting devoted to theoretical problems associated with sunspots, the motivation being the consensus that theory seemed to lag behind the observational evidence in our quest for a satisfactory un derstand...

Clare Through the Twentieth Century
Numerous histories have been written of the older colleges of Oxford and Cambridge. During the 20th century, Clare, founded in 1326, has two - Manfield Forbes' eccentric six century survey up to 1926, and Richard Eden's recent Clare College and the Founding of Clare Hall. However no previous attempt has been made by the College, or as far as is known by any Oxbridge college, to present a wide-ranging overview of college life and learning through the 20th century.
David Weiss. Neocolor
The book reproduces all of the known Neocolor drawings by the Swiss artist, who died in 2012. Peter Fischli and David Weiss began working together in the 1980s as artist duo Fischli/Weiss, as well as their alter egos Rat and Bear. Before that, parallel to travelling, David Weiss drew all other activities and non-activities with pencil, coloured pencil, ink and Neocolor wax pastels. The Neocolor drawings, for which Weiss used a technique that many will remember from school, form a self-contained group of works from the period between 1977 and 1978. The success of the publication is in conveying the properties of black pages as negative drawings, whose motifs become visible through scratching away to the coloured layers underneath, in an intuitive way.
