This book provides an introduction to the inverse eigenvalue problem for graphs (IEP-$G$) and the related area of zero forcing, propagation, and throttling. The IEP-$G$ grew from the intersection of linear algebra and combinatorics and has given rise to both a rich set of deep problems in that area as well as a breadth of “ancillary” problems in related areas. The IEP-$G$ asks a fundamental mathematical question expressed in terms of linear algebra and graph theory, but the significance of such questions goes beyond these two areas, as particular instances of the IEP-$G$ also appear as major research problems in other fields of mathematics, sciences and engineering. One approach to the IEP-$G$ is through rank minimization, a relevant problem in itself and with a large number of applications. During the past 10 years, important developments on the rank minimization problem, particularly in relation to zero forcing, have led to significant advances in the IEP-$G$. The monograph serves as an entry point and valuable resource that will stimulate future developments in this active and mathematically diverse research area.
RADIO REPLIES: VOLUMES 1 TO 3 REVEREND CHARLES MORTIMER CARTY REVEREND LESLIE RUMBLE — A Catholic Classic! — 4,374 Questions and Answers, Over 650,000 Words — Includes an Active Index, Table of Contents and Layered NCX Navigation — Includes Illustrations by Gustave Dore Paperback Editions: Volume 1: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-431-7 Volume 2: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-432-4 Volume 3: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-433-1 A classic of Catholic apologetics, widely considered to be among the most effective and comprehensive defenses of Catholicism ever published. Concise, unflinching and compelling answers to literally thousands of questions regarding the teaching of the Catholic Church. Fathers Rumble (a former Protestant) and Carty have created an indispensable resource for anyone looking to explain the truth of Catholicism to curious non-Catholics. Rev. Dr. Leslie Rumble, M.S.C. was the host of a popular weekly radio show in Australia called “Question Box.” Starting in 1928, he spent five years on air answering questions about faith, religion, and morality from the Catholic perspective. He challenged his audience to challenge him with their hard questions about the Catholic Church. If the Church is to be abused and treated like a criminal, then “she has a right to be heard,” he said. Out of this was born the first edition of “Radio Replies,” published in Australia. Rev. Charles Mortimer Carty was a ‘street preacher’ and host of “Catholic Radio Hour,” broadcast out of St. Paul, Minnesota. “I realized that this priest in Australia was doing exactly the same work I was doing here in St. Paul,” wrote Fr. Carty. And so began a publishing collaboration that led to the phenomenally popular American edition of “Radio Replies,” two subsequent volumes, and over a dozen other publications defending Catholic teaching.

This book presents a comprehensive theory of the ethics and political philosophy of public health surveillance based on reciprocal obligations among surveillers, those under surveillance, and others potentially affected by surveillance practices. Public health surveillance aims to identify emerging health trends, population health trends, treatment efficacy, and methods of health promotion--all apparently laudatory goals. Nonetheless, as with anti-terrorism surveillance, public health surveillance raises complex questions about privacy, political liberty, and justice both of and in data use. Individuals and groups can be chilled in their personal lives, stigmatized or threatened, and used for the benefit of others when health information is wrongfully collected or used. Transparency and openness about data use, public involvement in decisions, and just distribution of the benefits of surveillance are core elements in the justification of surveillance practices. Understanding health surveillance practices, the concerns it raises, and how to respond to them is critical not only to ethical and trustworthy but also to publicly acceptable and ultimately sustainable surveillance practices. The book is of interest to scholars and practitioners of the ethics and politics of public health, bioethics, privacy and data technology, and health policy. These issues are ever more pressing in pandemic times, where misinformation can travel quickly and suspicions about disease spread, treatment efficacy, and vaccine safety can have devastating public health effects.
A commentary on changes in the initial and continuing education of teachers. The authors combine reviews of the available literature with research and offer suggestions as to how teacher education may be improved. Also included is a comparative research project on teacher education in the USA.
