The Original Vicksburg National Military Park and Vicinity

By: David B. Dumas

The Vicksburg National Military Park as it exists today is about two-thirds the size of the original park. The book describes the park as it was when the park was created. The book contains the name and location of markers and monuments that are currently located in the park. The book contains a brief history of the park, early photographs, descriptions, and styles of state markers and monuments. There are early maps of the park showing all the trenches and approaches. This book will give the park visitor far more insight as to the locations of all the markers that were associated with the park.

Introduction to Mathematical Finance

American Mathematical Society Short Course, January 6-7, 1997, San Diego, California

By: David C. Heath,Glen Swindle,American Mathematical Society

The foundation for the subject of mathematical finance was laid nearly 100 years ago by Bachelier in his fundamental work, Théorie de la spéculation. In this work, he provided the first treatment of Brownian motion. Since then, the research of Markowitz, and then of Black, Merton, Scholes, and Samuelson brought remarkable and important strides in the field. A few years later, Harrison and Kreps demonstrated the fundamental role of martingales and stochastic analysis in constructing and understanding models for financial markets. The connection opened the door for a flood of mathematical developments and growth. Concurrently with these mathematical advances, markets have grown, and developments in both academia and industry continue to expand. This lively activity inspired an AMS Short Course at the Joint Mathematics Meetings in San Diego (CA). The present volume includes the written results of that course. Articles are featured by an impressive list of recognized researchers and practitioners. Their contributions present deep results, pose challenging questions, and suggest directions for future research. This collection offers compelling introductory articles on this new, exciting, and rapidly growing field.

lt is a tremendous achievement to have provided this highly comprehensive but readable text, which informs such a large group of researchers and clinicians." Christopher Kennard, PhD, FRCP, FMedSci, Professor of Clinical Neurology, Head, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Oxford, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom. "A monograph written with deep knowledge, understanding, wisdom, clarity, intelligibility - the superlatives could go on and on... A remarkable achievement and a great gift to all of us from the two modern giants of eye movement disorders." Michael Halmagyi, MD, Eye and Ear Research Unit, Neurology Department, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, The University of Sydney, Australia. "The fifth edition of The Neurology of Eye Movements is a must for all neurologists and neuroscientists interested in how the human vestibular and oculomotor systems adapt to movement in space and to optimally viewing the world and its contents."

Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders

By: Ivan Donaldson,C. David Marsden,Susanne Schneider,Kailash Bhatia

This book represents the final work of the late Professor C. David Marsden, who was the most influential figure in the field of movement disorders, in terms of his contributions to both research and clinical practice, in the modern era. It was conceived and written by David Marsden and his colleague at the Institute of Neurology, Prof. Ivan Donaldson. It was their intention that this would be the most comprehensive book on movement disorders and also that it would serve as the 'clinical Bible' for the management of these conditions. It provides a masterly survey of the entire topic, which has been made possible only by vast laboratory and bedside experience. Marsden's Book of Movement Disorders covers the full breadth of movement disorders, from the underlying anatomy and understanding of basal ganglia function to the diagnosis and management of specific movement disorders, including the more common conditions such as Parkinson's Disease through to rare, and very rare conditions such as Niemann-Pick disease. Chapters follow a structured format with historical overviews, definitions, clinical features, differential diagnosis, investigations and treatment covered in a structured way. It is extensively illustrated with many original photographs and diagrams of historical significance. Among these illustrations are still images of some original film clips of some of Dr. Marsden's patients published here for the first time. Comprehensively referenced and updated by experts from the Institute of Neurology at Queen Square, this book is a valuable reference for, not just movement disorder specialists and researchers, but also for clinicians who care for patients with movement disorders.

Mediterranean France

By: Globe Pequot Press,David Burke

No other place in the world of such modest size can boast such a remarkable concentration of nature, cultural and artistic beauty and riches. The Cote d'Azur is where tourism was invented in the high rolling belle epoque era of the late nineteenth century, and its image of luxury and voluptuousness reverberates to this day. While giving the Cote d'Azur its due as a land rich in history, art and natural beauty, the Traveler's Mediterranean France Companion highlights the other three parts of this compact but remarkably diverse coastal region as well - Provence, Languedoc and Rousillon. Travelers will discover exciting attractions everywhere from the Alpes to the Pyrenees.
