Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations in Engineering and Applied Science
In this volume are twenty-eight papers from the Conference on Nonlinear Partial Differential Equationsin Engineering and Applied Science, sponsored by the Office of Naval Research and held at the Universityof Rhode Island in June, 1979. Included are contributions from an international group of distinguishedmathematicians, scientists, and engineers coming from a wide variety of disciplines and having a commoninterest in the application of mathematics, particularly nonlinear partial differential equations, to realworld problems.The subject matter ranges from almost purely mathematical topics in numerical analysis and bifurcationtheory to a host of practical applications that involve nonlinear ...
366 Days in Abraham Lincoln's Presidency
In a startlingly innovative format, journalist Stephen A. Wynalda has constructed a painstakingly detailed day-by-day breakdown of president Abraham Lincoln’s decisions in office—including his signing of the Homestead Act on May 20, 1862; his signing of the legislation enacting the first federal income tax on August 5, 1861; and more personal incidents like the day his eleven-year-old son, Willie, died. Revealed are Lincoln’s private frustrations on September 28, 1862, as he wrote to vice president Hannibal Hamlin, “The North responds to the [Emancipation] proclamation sufficiently with breath; but breath alone kills no rebels.” 366 Days in Abraham Lincoln’s Presidency includes f...
The Daughter of Abraham
Charlie Kollock grows up in post-war Delaware with a distant father, and a mother who is 'delicate'. He goes to Oxford to study, where he forms relationships with several woman: Elaine, the daughter of a farmer, whom he met as a child; Miriam, a young Australian Jewish girl, whose family returns to England when her grandfather dies; and Sophia, a student cellist of American Jewish heritage.Woven through these relationships is that with his mother, a disturbingly magnetic woman whose grasp of reality is fragile. Her visions and dreams form the lens through which Charlie views the world. Chief among these are her visions concerning the enigmatic 'Daughter of Abraham', with whom Charlie's destiny, she is convinced, is linked. Charlie cannot shake off these visions. Is this one of his mother's delusions? If not, who is this 'Daughter of Abraham'?
