This volume of 18 papers describes the glacial-marine sedimentary environment in a variety of temporal and spatial settings.

This volume is an overview of research examining the relationship between hormones and aggressive behavior.

This book, edited by Potyrailo and Amis, addresses a new paradigm-shifting approach in the search for new materials-Combinatorial Materials Science. Most of these "new" materials will be less good than ones we use now since existing materials have been refined with the extensive work of scientists and engi neers.

A unique feature of the book is that the concepts, problems, and methods are introduced in the context of an architectural formulation of an expert system referred to as the general systems problem solver or aSPS-whose aim is to provide users ofall kinds with computer-based systems knowledge and methodo logy.

During the past quarter century, community psychologists have worked to make relevant contributions to human welfare in community settings and to effect social change.

This lovely little book will take off and fly on its own power, but the author has asked me to write a few words, and one should not say no to a friend.

Monitoring the environment is absolutely essential if we are to identify hazards to human health, to assess environmental cleanup efforts, and to prevent further degradation of the ecosystem.

This volume serves as an aid in the process of differential diagnosis which frequently confronts neuropsychologists. In addition to serving as a convenient source of information on symptom base rates, this volume also contains detailed cross referencing of symptoms across disorders.

This work addresses perchlorate as a potable water contaminant. The two main topics are analytical chemistry and treatment or remediation. Other subjects include ion exchange, phytoremediation, bacterial reduction of perchlorate, bioreactors and in situ bioremediation.

Intends to reconstruct the societies, rituals, and ritual interactions of Hopewellian people.

This volume provides a theoretical basis for understanding the specific effects of totalitarian dictatorship upon the practice of archaeology, both during and after the dictator's reign.

Insulin-like growth factors are ubiquitously expressed and are crucial for growth and function of almost all cells. In addition to its significance in growth and development, the insulin-like growth factor system also has important roles in a wide variety of pathological states.

It has been twelve years since a work relating to the long-tailed African monkeys known as the guenons has been published and fifteen years have passed since the last major scientific symposium was held that was solely dedicated to current research on members of this monkey group living in the wild.

This work contains original research from the first 25 years of the American Journal of Community Psychology, selected to reflect community psychology's rich tradition of theory, empirical research, action, and innovative methods.

By exploring the context of psychiatry's unofficial voices: its terminology, jokes, parodies, and everyday narratives, the clinical landscape is shown to rely heavily on unofficial dialogues in order to safeguard an official identity.

Membrane fusion and targeting processes are tightly regulated and coordinated. In this respect interfering proteins should be considered as preventing undesirable and unnecessary fusion and eventually directing the biological membrane fusion process (when, where, how, and overcoming the activation energy).

New synthetic fluorine chemistry, new processes, and new apprecia tion of the mechanisms by which fluorine imparts exceptional properties all contribute to accelerating growth in fluoropolymers.

It is easy to point to the vast array of ventilators, blood-gas analyzers, oximeters, pulmonary function devices, and respiration monitors that are present in any modern clinical setting as solid evidence of the successful synergy between engineering science and pulmonary medicine.

'Further establishes the reputation of the series...an invaluable resource.' -Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, from a review of Volume 3 Volume 4 explores such emergent topics as: three-dimensional conceptions of ion channel proteins based on the available structural and functional data;

Papers by nationally recognized educational sociologists examine four dimensions of the educational process-school organization and governance, organization of students for instruction, classroom processes, and school-to-work transitions-and suggest methods to increase the effectiveness of each.

The NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Scale Invariance, Interfaces and Non Equilibrium Dynamics" was held at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge, UK from 20-30 June 1994. In addition to thirty-seven of these lectures, two contributed lectures were also given.

The Seventh International Symposium on Gaseous Dielectrics was held in Knoxville, Tennessee, U. It is hoped that Gaseous DielecIries VII will aid future research and development in, and encourage wider industrial use of, gaseous dielectrics. The Organizing Committee of the Seventh International Symposium on Gaseous Dielectrics consisted of G.

Most of the studies described in this volume were presented at the Chemical Signals in Vertbrates VI (CSV VI) symposium held at the University of Pennsylvania in the summer of 1991.
