“There was this girl who went to Sun City, bright as sunshine, graceful and witty.” That was the first line of the Author’s poem on Aishwarya Rai, Miss World 1994 that won him the first prize in a Times Of India Contest. This was soon followed by two more poems that were published in the Times of India, one on the match-fixing controversy and the other about Diana’s ‘death in a car crash’ These three convinced the writer that he is comfortable with writing topical poetry. That’s how the idea of writing a ‘book of poems’ about the epoch-making 20th century was born, later to be nurtured and finally to fructify in the form of this book, ‘A Century and a Score’. The book is about the happenings and people of the 20th century and 20 years thereafter. It ‘races through in an easy-going, rhyming style and concisely packs information, interspersed with wit and satire. Happy reading folks!!

Path following in combination with boundary value problem solvers has emerged as a continuing and strong influence in the development of dynamical systems theory and its application. It is widely acknowledged that the software package AUTO - developed by Eusebius J. Doedel about thirty years ago and further expanded and developed ever since - plays a central role in the brief history of numerical continuation. This book has been compiled on the occasion of Sebius Doedel's 60th birthday. Bringing together for the first time a large amount of material in a single, accessible source, it is hoped that the book will become the natural entry point for researchers in diverse disciplines who wish to...
This book introduces new methods of research for studying the Alexiad, aiming primarily at analysing Anna Komnene's literary expression.
Security, or the perceived lack thereof, impacts on quality of life at many levels. An important consideration is how security should be best understood. Although definitions of how to understand human security have been proposed, it is not clear how security should be measured. Security can be analyzed from different perspectives i.e., personal security, economic security, health security, political security, cyber security etc. In this volume, all facets of research pertaining to security and subjective well-being (SWB) are discussed, including among others: Objective and subjective measures of security; Multiple security dimensions; The relationship between security and SWB and possible mediators and moderators; Cultural and religious influences on security and SWB; Present and future security; Perceptions of crime in cities and regions and development of relevant indicators; Security in a globalized era and its relationship to SWB; Security, major events and SWB
This new book provides a solid understanding of the recent developments in the field of composites and nanocomposites. It explains the significance of the new fillers, such as graphene and arbon nanotubes in different matrix systems. The application of these materials in biological and others fields also makes this book unique. This detailed study of nanocomposites, their structure, processing and characterization will be of value in all walks of engineering life. The book covers the following topics: • polymer matrix composites • ceramic matrix composites • carbon matrix composites • wood-based composites • biocomposites • ecocomposites • nanocomposites • processing • prop...
1. Despite the creative and innovative strength of European videogame companies, the study of the European videogame, as well as of the European gaming culture, is still a rather unexplored field. 2. This book includes and emphasises a supranational perspective on the European videogame, unlike other previous works focused on specific national cases. 3. Very often, the link Europe-videogames has been addressed through the question of the representations of Europe and, especially, European history (with World War II as the most common case). This book includes the question of representations of Europe but it doesn't limit itself to it, paying also attention to the design styles and approaches of European creators.
Rubber Nanocomposites: Preparation, Properties and Applications focuses on the preparation, characterization and properties of natural and synthetic rubber nanocomposites. The book carefully debates the preparation of unmodified and modified nanofillers, various manufacturing techniques of rubber nanocomposites, structure, morphology and properties of nanocomposites. The text reviews the processing; characterization and properties of 0-, 1D and 2D nanofiller reinforced rubber nanocomposites. It examines the polymer/filler interaction, i.e., the compatibility between matrix and filler using unmodified and modified nanofillers. The book also examines the applications of rubber nanocomposites i...
