Shall Not Be Infringed

The New Assaults on Your Second Amendment

By: David A. Keene,Thomas L. Mason

Shall Not be Infringed: The New Assaults on Your Second Amendment is a history of the relatively short gun control debate in America and a revealing description of how those hostile to the Second Amendment use polls, studies, and numbers to confuse the public. Expert pro-gun advocates David Keene and Thomas Mason tell the story of the battle fought in the courts, Congress, and state legislatures across the country as well as in the media and even the United Nations. Guns have become a symbol over which battle after battle is fought, all the while hiding the end game of a cultural shift to government dominance. Although the Supreme Court ruled the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to “keep and bear arms,” candidate Clinton and the Democratic Party have promised to pick Supreme Court justices who will overturn this ruling. Gun control advocates insist the Court was wrong and a new Court should reverse that finding, stripping American gun owners of the Constitutional protection that has thus far made it impossible to ban gun ownership. Addressing vital issues such as deterring and preventing crime, troubling presidential and Congressional politics, problematic anti-gun proposals, and so much more, Shall Not Be Infringed is an essential read for our times.

Spectral Problems in Geometry and Arithmetic

NSF-CBMS Conference on Spectral Problems in Geometry and Arithmetic, August 18-22, 1997, University of Iowa

By: Thomas Branson

These are the proceedings of the NSF-CBMS Conference on "Spectral Problems in Geometry and Arithmetic" held at the University of Iowa. The principal speaker was Peter Sarnak, who has been a central contributor to developments in this field. The volume approaches the topic from the geometric, physical, and number theoretic points of view. The remarkable new connections among seemingly disparate mathematical and scientific disciplines have surprised even veterans of the physical mathematics renaissance forged by gauge theory in the 1970s. Numerical experiments show that the local spacing between zeros of the Riemann zeta function is modelled by spectral phenomena: the eigenvalue distributions of random matrix theory, in particular the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE). Related phenomena are from the point of view of differential geometry and global harmonic analysis. Elliptic operators on manifolds have (through zeta function regularization) functional determinants, which are related to functional integrals in quantum theory. The search for critical points of this determinant brings about extremely subtle and delicate sharp inequalities of exponential type. This indicates that zeta functions are spectral objects-and even physical objects. This volume demonstrates that zeta functions are also dynamic, chaotic, and more.

Moffet's Pediatric Infectious Diseases

A Problem-oriented Approach

By: Randall G. Fisher,Thomas G. Boyce,Hugh L. Moffet

Dr. Hugh L. Moffet's popular handbook has now been thoroughly updated by two well-known specialists in pediatric infectious diseases. Organized by anatomic site of disease rather than by infectious agent, the book takes a problem-oriented approach to the diagnosis and treatment of infectious syndromes. It guides clinicians step by step through the process of classifying the illness, developing a differential diagnosis, establishing the definitive diagnosis, treating the patient, and anticipating and recognizing complications and life-threatening emergencies. This Fourth Edition has a greater focus on treatment and includes new chapters on HIV infection and AIDS and congenital immunodeficiency syndromes.

The American Encounter with Buddhism, 1844-1912

The American Encounter with Buddhism, 1844-1912

Victorian Culture and the Limits of Dissent

By: Thomas A. Tweed

In this landmark work, Thomas Tweed examines nineteenth-century America's encounter with one of the world's major religions. Exploring the debates about Buddhism that followed upon its introduction in this country, Tweed shows what happened when the transplanted religious movement came into contact with America's established culture and fundamentally different Protestant tradition. The book, first published in 1992, traces the efforts of various American interpreters to make sense of Buddhism in Western terms. Tweed demonstrates that while many of those interested in Buddhism considered themselves dissenters from American culture, they did not abandon some of the basic values they shared with their fellow Victorians. In the end, the Victorian understanding of Buddhism, even for its most enthusiastic proponents, was significantly shaped by the prevailing culture. Although Buddhism attracted much attention, it ultimately failed to build enduring institutions or gain significant numbers of adherents in the nineteenth century. Not until the following century did a cultural environment more conducive to Buddhism's taking root in America develop. In a new preface, Tweed addresses Buddhism's growing influence in contemporary American culture.

Arizona Flora

Arizona Flora

Identifies 3,438 Species of Flowering Plants, Ferns, and Fern-Allies Growing Uncultivated in Arizona

By: Thomas H. Kearney,Robert H. Peebles

Nearly every life form found among North American flowering plants is represented in Arizona. This amazing diversity is partly explained by the fact that the altitudinal range extends from a few feet above sea level to approximately 12,000 feet at the summit of the San Francisco Peaks. The life zone range from Arctic-Alpine on these peaks to Lower Sonoran in the southwest and Subtropical in the extreme south. The main objective of this book is to provide means for identifying the approximately 3438 species of flowering plants, ferns, and fern-allies growing without cultivation in Arizona. Keys for identification of the families, genera, and species are provided. Under each species the authors give the geographical distribution within and outside Arizona, and usually the altitudinal range and time of flowering. They describe economic uses, toxic or other properties, and ornamental value of many plants, giving particular attention to the utilization of native plants by the large Indian population of the state. Introductory chapters describe the topography, geology, soils, and climate of Arizona, the several types of vegetation in relation to the physical conditions, and the proportional representation of the larger plant families. There is also a brief account of botanical explorations in Arizona since 1832. This is the only available work on the flora of Arizona that includes the results of intensive, botanical research in the state during the past twenty years. It is based on an earlier publication, Flowering Plants and Ferns of Arizona, issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1942 and now out of print. For the present revision, a supplementary section of more than fifty pages has been prepared under the direction of John Thomas Howell and Elizabeth McClintock of the California Academy of Sciences. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1960.

Symposium of Law Publishers

By: Thomas A. Woxland

In this insightful book, the most respected names in legal publishing envision what changes the next century holds for the publication of legal information. Approximately 100 years ago, as comprehensive publication of legal cases began, the major legal publishing houses described their view of legal literature in a "Symposium of Law Publishers." Today's technological innovations, coupled with a resurgence of competition that has revived entrepreneurial dynamism in legal publishing, have created the need for a second such effort. Symposium of Law Publishers commemorates the spirit of the first symposium by examining the state of legal publishing today and what advances can be expected in the new century. Representatives of fourteen legal publishers give an in-depth view of the field and its future. In a unique additional feature, four law librarians provide an alternative view of the future of legal publishing. Symposium of Law Publishers examines information technologies primarily as a means to deliver information to the legal profession quickly, comprehensively, inexpensively, or accessibly, and predict that libraries and books will remain the core of legal information. The contributors discuss the new competitive spirit in the law publishing industry and the need for a response to increased globalization and specialization in the law profession. Other important topics addressed in this groundbreaking book include the future of case publication, electronic publishing and the future of research, citation systems in the future, and the survival of loose-leaf services. Professionals concerned with any aspect of legal publishing will be better prepared for future changes with the help of this fascinating book. Law librarians, data base specialists, and information theory specialists will also find Symposium of Law Publishers an invaluable introduction to the next century of legal publishing.
