Problems in General Physics Electromagnetism - Optics

By: Pierluigi Zotto,Massimo Nigro

This collection of exercises proposes a relevant choice of the written tests assigned to the Information Engineering Courses of General Physics in the past Academic Years. An accurate selection of the problems has been done. They have been organised by item with the addition of a largely commented solution with the purpose to provide students with an advanced tool for the preparation for the written part of the examination. Every item is gradually introduced; but a sufficiently deep theoretical knowledge of the matter of study is anyway required in order to correctly understand the presented situations. The proposed problems are the ideal complement to the exercises solved by a Professor while lecturing or the ones offered in theory textbooks as worked out examples or problems to be solved.

Driving Modernity

Technology, Experts, Politics, and Fascist Motorways, 1922-1943

By: Massimo Moraglio

On March 26th, 1923, in a formal ceremony, construction of the Milan–Alpine Lakes autostrada officially began, the preliminary step toward what would become the first European motorway. That Benito Mussolini himself participated in the festivities indicates just how important the project was to Italian Fascism. Driving Modernity recounts the twisting fortunes of the autostrada, which—alongside railways, aviation, and other forms of mobility—Italian authorities hoped would spread an ideology of technological nationalism. It explains how Italy ultimately failed to realize its mammoth infrastructural vision, addressing the political and social conditions that made a coherent plan of development impossible.

Neurotransmitters and Cortical Function

From Molecules to Mind

By: Massimo Avoli,Tomas A. Reader,Robert W. Dykes,Pierre Gloor

Herbert Henri Jasper is a scientist whose research activities have initiated and encompassed many of the major themes of neuroscience. He has pioneered in single unit recording, chronic neuronal studies, neurochemistry, electroencephalography, and many other disciplines. His students now hold important positions in universities and hospitals around the world. From July 21 to 23, 1986, a symposium entitled Neurotransmitters and Cortical Function: From Molecules to Mind was held in Montreal to honor Professor Jasper and to continue his pioneering efforts. The following chapters originated in that meeting. They summarize the current v vi PREFACE status of our knowledge in some of the fields influenced by Professor Jasper. They share a focus on neurotransmitters in cortical function, where we presume higher mental events originate. Professor Jasper has made contributions to the understanding of three different classes of neuro transmitters: GABA, acetylcholine, and catecholamines. It is an interest in trying to link neu rochemical events to some aspects of complex brain function and behavior that has characterized his work, and it is this philosophy that led to the present symposium to honor him. We dedicate this volume to Professor Jasper and the integrative approach that he has fostered. The Editors Montreal Contents 1. H. H.

Cell Adhesion Molecules in Cancer and Inflammation

By: Agamemnon A. Epenetos,Massimo Pignatelii

Begins a series for clinicians, graduate students, and researchers in academia, regulatory agencies, or industry, offering monographs both on classes of adhesion molecules and on the function of such molecules in particular systems. Here the emphasis is on the clinical evaluation of these molecules, particularly as novel biochemical and genetic markers to define tumor differentiation based on functional and morphological assessment, and also their potential use as targets for biological therapy. Includes ten pages of color plates. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

What Darwin Got Wrong

By: Jerry Fodor,Massimo Piattelli-Palmarini

What Darwin Got Wrong is a remarkable book, one that dares to challenge the theory of natural selection as an explanation for how evolution works---a devastating critique not in the name of religion but in the name of good science. Combining the results of cutting-edge work in experimental biology with crystal-clear philosophical arguments, Fodor and Piattelli-Palmarini mount a reasoned and convincing assault on the central tenets of Darwin's account of the origin of species. This is a concise argument that will transform the debate about evolution and move us beyond the false dilemma of being either for natural selectionor against science.

Cheese, Pears, and History in a Proverb

By: Massimo Montanari

Do not let the peasant know how good cheese is with pears" goes the old saying. Intrigued by these words and their portent, Massimo Montanari unravels their origin and utility. Perusing archival cookbooks, agricultural and dietary treatises, literary works, and anthologies of beloved sayings, he finds in the nobility's demanding palates and delicate stomachs a compelling recipe for social conduct. At first, cheese and its visceral, earthy pleasures were treated as the food of Polyphemus, the uncivilized man-beast. The pear, on the other hand, became the symbol of ephemeral, luxuriant pleasure-an indulgence of the social elite. Joined together, cheese and pears adopted an exclusive savoir faire, especially as the "natural phenomenon" of taste evolved into a cultural attitude. Montanari's delectable history straddles written and oral traditions, economic and social relations, and thrills in the power of mental representation. His ultimate discovery shows that the enduring proverb, so wrapped up in history, operates not only as a repository of shared wisdom but also as a rich locus of social conflict.
