At Daytrap
Previously only circulated in ragged samizdat manuscript, this bizarre collection of short stories, at once hilarious, profane, bawdy, tawdry, and unlikely, is now available in an authoritative version. Destined to become an Australian classic. Not everyone is happy at the rural, Australian way of life depicted in these stories, of course. The eminent Sir Pelham Corrie has written: "One final word. It is not inconceivable that one day some ignorant, jumped-up, crypto-intellectual johnny-come-lately, academic bounder will come along and try to claim that the central character in these stories, the so-called ‘Uncle Vern’, was some kind of modern Sisyphus pushing rocks downhill, a modern Prometheus giving matches to children, some kind of symbol of our times. Well, he certainly is not that. He is nothing but a mountebank, and a living slur on the good name of decent rural folk who are and always have been and always will be the backbone of this great nation of ours." So don't say you weren't warned. Not recommended for anyone under the age of eighteen. Not recommended for those of delicate or sophisticated taste.
Networked Sensing Information and Control
This book presents research on informational and mathematical aspects of networked sensing systems. It brings together internationally reputed researchers from different communities, focused on the common theme of distributed sensing, inferencing, and control over networks. The timeliness of the book is evidenced by the explosion of several independent special sessions devoted to specific aspects of sensor networks in reputed international conferences.

Beyond Nationalism
In the last seventy years of its long and distinguished existence, the Habsburg monarchy was plagued by the forces of rising nationalism. Still, it preserved domestic peace and provided the conditions for social, economic, and cultural progress in a vast area inhabited by eleven major nationalities and almost as many confessional groups. This study investigates the social origin, education, training, code of honor, lifestyle, and political role of the Habsburg officers. Simultaneously conservative and liberal, the officer corps, originally composed mainly of noblemen, willingly coopted thousands of commoners--among them an extraordinary number of Jews. Even during World War I, the army and its officers endured, surviving the dissolution of the state in October 1918, if only by a few days. The end of the multinational Habsburg army also marked the end of confessional and ethnic tolerance in Central and East Central Europe.

Some vols. include supplemental journals of "such proceedings of the sessions, as, during the time they were depending, were ordered to be kept secret, and respecting which the injunction of secrecy was afterwards taken off by the order of the House."
Proceedings of the Workshop on Methods of Obtaining Winds and Densities from Radar Meteor Trail Returns
The first day of the four-day meeting held 16-19 August 1966 was devoted to technical descriptions of six radar meteor trail systems. Methods of deriving winds, wind shears and geometric height of the trails were presented on the second day. Discussions of ambipolar diffusion rates and derived atmospheric densities and density-heights were the topics for the third day. On the last day the discussion centered around the use of the data by the meteorologist. The height resolution and data rates needed for climatological, tidal and turbulence studies were delineated. Two papers on wind studies at Sheffield, England and at Adelaide, Australia were presented.
