“The 25th Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals
was held in Breckenridge, CO, May 4–7, 2003. Over 450 attendees helped
underscore the growing importance of bioenergy and a biobased economy
during this special Silver Anniversary Symposium. Forty states and
twenty-three countries were represented at the Symposium, with over
40% of the attendees from industry, almost 40% from universities and
colleges, and the remainder from government agencies and laboratories.
The robust participation and sponsorship by industry highlights the relevancy
and importance of this Symposium.
While improving the economics of producing fuels and chemicals is
vital to many industrial sectors, the ability to do so in a sustainable and
environmentally responsible manner is becoming increasingly important.
The program for the 25th Symposium on Biotechnology for Fuels and
Chemicals was designed to deliver the latest research breakthroughs and
results in biotechnology that stimulate such improvements. The technical
focus of Symposium was evident at each session, as evolutionary as well
as revolutionary research findings were revealed. The eight technical sessions
contained 52 oral presentations and we had 272 poster presentations.
Whether one represented the industrial, academic, or government sector,
each was invited to participate in this stimulating exchange of information
and ideas. Valuable opportunities for productive interactions with colleagues,
both from a national and international perspective, were evident
throughout the meeting.” From Introduction.

The Education of Ronald Reagan: The General Electric Years and the Untold Story of His Conversion to Conservatism
(Columbia Studies in Contemporary American History) By Professor Thomas W. Evans
Publisher: Columbia University Press 2008-07-21 | 320 Pages | ISBN: 023113861X | PDF | 1.7 MB

In October 1964, Ronald Reagan gave a televised speech in support of Republican presidential nominee Barry Goldwater. “The Speech,” as it has come to be known, helped launch Ronald Reagan as a leading force in the American conservative movement. However, less than twenty years earlier, Reagan was a prominent Hollywood liberal, the president of the Screen Actors Guild, and a fervent supporter of FDR and Harry Truman.

While many agree that Reagan’s anticommunism grew out of his experiences with the Hollywood communists of the late 1940s, the origins of his conservative ideology have remained obscure.

Based on a newly discovered collection of private papers as well as interviews and corporate documents, The Education of Ronald Reagan offers new insights into Reagan’s ideological development and his political ascendancy. Thomas W. Evans links the eight years (1954-1962) in which Reagan worked for General Electric& mdash;acting as host of its television program, GE Theater, and traveling the country as the company’s public-relations envoy-to his conversion to conservatism.

In particular, Evans reveals the profound influence of GE executive Lemuel Boulware, who would become Reagan’s political and ideological mentor. Boulware, known for his tough stance against union officials and his innovative corporate strategies to win over workers, championed the core tenets of modern American conservatism-free-market fundamentalism, anticommunism, lower taxes, and limited government. Building on the ideas and influence of Boulware, Reagan would soon begin his rise as a national political figure and an icon of the American conservative movement.

Tales of Moonlight and Rain (Translations from the Asian Classics) By Akinari Ueda
Publisher: Columbia University Press 2008-11-25 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 0231139136 | PDF | 1.6 MB

First published in 1776, the nine gothic tales in this collection are Japan’s finest and most celebrated examples of the literature of the occult. They subtly merge the world of reason with the realm of the uncanny and exemplify the period’s fascination with the strange and the grotesque. They were also the inspiration for Mizoguchi Kenji’s brilliant 1953 film Ugetsu.

The title Ugetsu monogatari (literally “rain-moon tales”) alludes to the belief that mysterious beings appear on cloudy, rainy nights and in mornings with a lingering moon. In “Shiramine,” the vengeful ghost of the former emperor Sutoku reassumes the role of king; in “The Chrysanthemum Vow,” a faithful revenant fulfills a promise; “The Kibitsu Cauldron” tells a tale of spirit possession; and in “The Carp of My Dreams,” a man straddles the boundaries between human and animal and between the waking world and the world of dreams. The remaining stories feature demons, fiends, goblins, strange dreams, and other manifestations beyond all logic and common sense.

The eerie beauty of this masterpiece owes to Akinari’s masterful combination of words and phrases from Japanese classics with creatures from Chinese and Japanese fiction and lore. Along with The Tale of Genji and The Tales of the Heike, Tales of Moonlight and Rain has become a timeless work of great significance. This new translation, by a noted translator and scholar, skillfully maintains the allure and complexity of Akinari’s original prose.

This book is an introduction to modern cardinal arithmetic in the frame of the axioms of Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory together with the axiom of choice. A first part describes the classical theory developed by Bernstein, Cantor, Hausdorff, König and Tarski between 1870 and 1930. Next, the development in the seventies led by Galvin, Hajnal and Silver is characterized.

The third part presents the fundamental investigations in pcf theory which have been worked out by Shelah to answer the questions left open n the seventies.

This text is the first self-contained introduction to cardinal arithmetic which also includes pcf theory. It is aimed at undergraduate, and also postgraduate students as well as researchers who want to broaden their knowledge of cardinal arithmetic.

Marc, “Mathematical Conversations - Selections from The Mathematical Intelligencer”
Springer | 2000 | ISBN: 0387986863 | 488 pages | Djvu | 9,7 MB
Review
“Popular mathematical expositions aim to render exciting, deep mathematics comprehensible to a wide audience (hard!). Since even professional mathematicians can expect to penetrate the technicalities of only a small fraction of mathematical breakthroughs, publications such as The Mathematical Intelligencer, the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, Sugaku, and LÉnseignement Mathmatique (Mathematique) address themselves to at least a wide audience of mathematicians.

The Mathematical Intelligencer publishes stylish, well-illustrated articles, rich in ideas and usually short on proofs. The balance of topics reflects the broad spectrum of mathematical activity, and especially, great recent achievements (the Mordell conjecture, the Bieberbach conjecture, the Jones polynomial). Many, but not all articles fall within the reach of the advanced undergraduate mathematics major. For example, every student of advanced calculus should read Felipe Acker’s essay on Stokes’s theorem and the mean value theorem. This book makes a nice addition to any undergraduate mathematics collection that does not already sport back issues of The Mathematical Intelligencer. Upper-division undergraduates and up.”
D.V. Feldman, University of New Hampshire in CHOICE Reviews, June 2001

Product Description
Contains forty articles published in The Mathematical Intelligencer during its first 18 years, each with an introduction by the editor. The articles cover a wide range of subjects, from the history of mathematics, to the newest discoveries. DLC: Mathematics.

Professor James H. Willbanks “The Tet Offensive: A Concise History”
Columbia University Press | 2008-11-14 | ISBN: 023112841X | 272 pages | PDF | 2,4 MB

In the Tet Offensive of 1968, Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces launched a massive countrywide attack on South Vietnam. Though the Communists failed to achieve their tactical and operational objectives, James Willbanks claims Hanoi won a strategic victory. The offensive proved that America’s progress was grossly overstated and caused many Americans and key presidential advisors to question the wisdom of prolonging combat.

Willbanks also maintains that the Communists laid siege to a Marine combat base two weeks prior to the Tet Offensive-known as the Battle of Khe Sanh& mdash;to distract the United States. It is his belief that these two events are intimately linked, and in his concise and compelling history, he presents an engaging portrait of the conflicts and singles out key problems of interpretation.

Willbanks divides his study into six sections, beginning with a historical overview of the events leading up to the offensive, the attack itself, and the consequent battles of Saigon, Hue, and Khe Sahn. He continues with a critical assessment of the main themes and issues surrounding the offensive, and concludes with excerpts from American and Vietnamese documents, maps and chronologies, an annotated list of resources, and a short encyclopedia of key people, places, and events.

An experienced military historian and scholar of the Vietnam War, Willbanks has written a unique critical reference and guide that enlarges the debate surrounding this important turning point in America’s longest war.
