Complete Poems of Richard Elman
Poetry. Edited by Alice Goode-Elman with a foreword by Louis Asekoff. "Richard Elman was an authentic man of letters and of conscience. Writing was his life, writing as an act of personal testimony and witness. At whatever cost he spoke truth to power and however painful, he spoke truth to himself. At his best, he wrote as though there were a direct line from his heart to his hand. While he published highly-praised novels, short stories, essays, memoirs, criticism, social commentary, poetry was for Richard his first love, his daily bread, and his life line. His poems are] astonishing in their] immediacy, an urgent communique from the front lines of consciousness, the ink hardly dry on the pa...
Child Composers in the Old Conservatories
Telling the compelling story of the seventeenth century Naples orphans who emerged from the city's conservatori as masters of the European musical world, Child Composers in the Old Conservatory explores their training in the partimento tradition, and advocates for its revival in modern music education.
Topology and Representation Theory
During 1991-1992, Northwestern University conducted a special emphasis year on the topic, "The connections between topology and representation theory." Activities over the year culminated in a conference in May 1992 which attracted over 120 participants. Most of the plenary lectures at the conference were expository and designed to introduce current trends to graduate students and nonspecialists familiar with algebraic topology. This volume contains refereed papers presented or solicited at the conference; one paper is based on a seminar given during the emphasis year.
Lie Algebras, Cohomology, and New Applications to Quantum Mechanics
This volume, which contains a good balance of research and survey papers, presents at look at some of the current development in this extraordinarily rich and vibrant area.

The Structure of Relation Algebras Generated by Relativizations
The foundation of an algebraic theory of binary relations was laid by De Morgan, Peirce, and Schroder during the second half of the nineteenth century. Modern development of the subject as a theory of abstract algebras, called "relation algebras", was undertaken by Tarski and his students. This book aims to analyse the structure of relation algebras that are generated by relativized subalgebras. As examples of their potential for applications, the main results are used to establish representation theorems for classes of relation algebras and to prove existence and uniqueness theorems for simple closures (i.e., for minimal simple algebras containing a given family of relation algebras as relativized subalgebras). This book is well-written and accessible to those who are not specialists in this area. In particular, it contains two introductory chapters on the arithmetic and the algebraic theory of relation algebras. This book is suitable for use in graduate courses onalgebras of binary relations or algebraic logic.
Real Algebraic Geometry and Topology
This book contains the proceedings of the Real Algebraic Geometry-Topology Conference, held at Michigan State University in December 1993. Presented here are recent results and discussions of new ideas pertaining to such topics as resolution theorems, algebraic structures, topology of nonsingular real algebraic sets, and the distribution of real algebraic sets in projective space.
The Penrose Transform and Analytic Cohomology in Representation Theory
This book contains refereed papers presented at the AMS-IMS-SIAM Summer Research Conference on the Penrose Transform and Analytic Cohomology in Representation Theory held in the summer of 1992 at Mount Holyoke College. The conference brought together some of the top experts in representation theory and differential geometry. One of the issues explored at the conference was the fact that various integral transforms from representation theory, complex integral geometry, and mathematical physics appear to be instances of the same general construction, which is sometimes called the ``Penrose transform''. There is considerable scope for further research in this area, and this book would serve as an excellent introduction.
