Anna T. Szabo is one of Hungary's most exciting poets, and this Selected, her first in English, draws on seven collections written over twenty years. The poems are striking for their passionate examination of female experience as well as their philosophical depths. Szabo is a poet of relationships, whose subjects are intimacy and betrayal. Clare Pollard is a UK poet whose work touches on many similar themes, and this collaborative translation will allow English readers to experience Szabo's intelligent, sensuous voice.
Biographic Memoirs: Volume 69 contains the biographies of deceased members of the National Academy of Sciences and bibliographies of their published works. Each biographical essay was written by a member of the Academy familiar with the professional career of the deceased. For historical and bibliographical purposes, these volumes are worth returning to time and again.
This text is based on a lecture course given by the authors in the framework of Oberwolfach Seminars at the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach in May, 2013. It is intended to serve as a thorough introduction to the rapidly developing field of positional games. This area constitutes an important branch of combinatorics, whose aim it is to systematically develop an extensive mathematical basis for a variety of two player perfect information games. These ranges from such popular games as Tic-Tac-Toe and Hex to purely abstract games played on graphs and hypergraphs. The subject of positional games is strongly related to several other branches of combinatorics such as Ramsey theory, extremal graph and set theory, and the probabilistic method. These notes cover a variety of topics in positional games, including both classical results and recent important developments. They are presented in an accessible way and are accompanied by exercises of varying difficulty, helping the reader to better understand the theory. The text will benefit both researchers and graduate students in combinatorics and adjacent fields.
Indispensable reference source for researchers in the pharmaceutical and allied industries, and at the biology/chemistry interface in academia.
Includes section, "Recent book acquisitions" (varies: Recent United States publications) formerly published separately by the U.S. Army Medical Library.
Organophosphorus Chemistry presents a groundbreaking resource in this branch of organic chemistry that demonstrates how phosphorus-containing compounds can be manipulated in a variety of organic reactions. The authors give an overview of the newest trends and synthesis strategies, introduce bioactive and environmentally friendly organophosphorus compounds and show their importance in mainstream organic chemistry.
