The conference, which is part of the "Emphasis Year" program traditionally supported by the Mathematics Department, was additionally supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, the National Security Agency, the Institute for Mathematics and Applications, as well as by supplemen tary sources from Northwestern University.

To record the life of a philosopher is to reveal his work and his thought. In this biography of Immanuel Kant by Arsenij Gulyga, the reader discovers Kant's inner life, the mind of a great philosopher whose ideas are wondrously alive and whose thoughts delve deeply into the human soul.

The simplest model of nuclear matter is a collection of point nucleons interacting through a two-body potential that accounts for scattering data and the properties of the deuteron.

Linear systems theory plays a broad and fundamental role in electrical, mechanical, chemical and aerospace engineering, communications, and signal processing. This book presents an introduction to systems theory with emphasis on control.

In a book written for mathematicians, teachers of mathematics, and highly motivated students, Harold Edwards has taken a bold and unusual approach to the presentation of advanced calculus.

This means that many neuroanatomists may balk at the functional interpretation I have given their sort of data, whereas many neuroscien tists in other fields may balk at references to neuroanatomy they cannot confirm from memory and begrudge the time to look up.

Invoking the machinery of Control Theory to control a real-world plant means, on the basis of available a priori knowledge of the plant, design ing/selecting a feasible controller accomplishing the control objective.

It is only in the last two decades that "molecular pharmacology" has blossomed, first with the advent of radioligand binding techniques and second messenger studies which greatly facilitated the biochemical study of drug-receptor interactions, and latterly with increasing knowledge of the molecular architecture of the receptor proteins themselves.

In this book, the new and rapidly expanding field of scientific computing is understood in a double sense: as computing for scientific and engineering problems and as the science of doing such computations.

This integrated book begins by discussing Fourier series, Hilbert spaces and the Fourier transform on the real line, and then turns to the heart of the text, geometric considerations. The concept of orthogonality weaves the material into a coherent whole.

In recent years there has been intense interest in the basic mechanisms of epilepsy.

This book brings together three decades worth of collaborative research to address the question "What sustains life?" this text contains elements of memoir, history, and a solid, informative scientific core that will interest the general reader, student, and professional researcher.

Computers these days spend a fairly low fraction of their time computing. A processor used to be a central processing unit-a set of wires and vacuum tubes, or later a set of printed circuit boards-which was nestled deep within the computer.

The theory of the top, originally made public as a lecture by Felix Klein at the University of Goettingen in 1895, was improved by Klein's collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld. This volume provides a thorough and insightful account and includes recent advances.

The problem of developing a systematic approach to the design of feed back strategies capable of shaping the response of complicated dynamical control systems illustrates the integration of a wide variety of mathemat ical disciplines typical of the modern theory of systems and control.

The synthesis rules may be used when a program is first being developed, or when, in the course of modifying a program, the need arises to rewrite a program segment.
