Book excerpt: Personalities. Characters. History. John C. Waugh, author of the award-winning The Class of 1846, presents forty of the most memorable and impactful people he has come across during his decades of writing about the Civil War—or as he calls them, his “Unforgettables.” Waugh’s unique pen and spritely style bring to life a mix of the famous and the infamous, the little-known, and the unremembered. He reintroduces us to Abraham Lincoln the writer, Jefferson Davis the losing president, and their fascinating and influential wives, Mary and Varina. Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, and Daniel Webster (“three for the ages”) are juxtaposed with Presidents Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, and James Buchanan—four chief executives who failed to avert the coming war. Military personalities include U. S. Grant and R. E. Lee, with a nod to their mentor, the nearly forgotten Winfield Scott. Waugh cast a wide net to include “the seekers of equality,” African Americans Sojourner Truth and Lincoln’s friend Frederick Douglass, a half dozen women like Maria Mayo, Kate Chase, and Anna Dickinson who helped shape our understanding of cultural issues, and media maven Horace Greeley and full-time Washington critic and pest, Count Adam Gurowski. Poet and political activist Muriel Rukeyser once wrote, “The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.” She might have added that these stories are driven by the passions of their characters and are what history is all about. “My hope,” explains the author, “is that these sketches and word portraits rekindle that passion and hook a few non-believers on the undeniable drama that is history.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The frequency and probability of radar echoes of convective clouds over the United States are presented. Analysis of three years of observations from a 31-station WSR-57 weather radar network indicates that at all altitudes, radar echo probabilities are greatest over Florida and the Gulf coast, generally decreasing northward over the United States. Also, largest probabilities for most layers and locations occur in summer. Echoes have been reported up to at least 70 kft in May, June, and July, and up to 60 kft in winter. Diurnal variations reveal greatest probabilities between 1600 and 2100 1st in all regions. Largest mean monthly 3-hour values are 85 percent, and the maximum mean daily range is roughly 65 percent in the southeast during the summer months. The probability of an echo-free horizontal view near the earth's surface for a 100-mile range is also presented. Tabulations of echo-free sectors, as percent of the 360-degree radar scope, show that the probability of obstructions to a horizontal view increases generally from northwest to southwest during all seasons. The probability of having no echoes is greater in winter than in summer except along the Pacific coastal region. Diurnal variability is larger in July than in January. (Author)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jawdat R. Haydar (1905–2006) was a prominent Lebanese poet from Baalbek, who contributed to world literature in the English language, and was the author of several books of poetry, including Voices (1980), Echoes (1989), and Shadows (1998). In 2006, he published his last book of poems, 101 Selected Poems, at the age of 101. Haydar was the recipient of several awards, including the Lebanese Order of the Cedars, the Gold Medal of Lebanese Merit, the Croix de Grand Officier of France, and a papal medal from Pope John XXIII for his humanitarian work. This edited volume of the proceedings of the first Jawdat Haydar international conference held at the Lebanese American University on April 24 2013 comprises scholarly papers on the English-language poems of the Lebanese poet. It will appeal to both an academic and non-academic readership interested in the field of 20th century English-language world literature. It will also be of use to those specialising in the comparative literature of the Middle East and the literary history of Anglo-Arabic influences in terms of the English poetical movements of Romanticism and Modernism and their reception in the Anglophone literary circles of the Arab world. Also included is a valuable appendix of digitised images containing a selection of Jawdat Haydar’s handwritten poems from the collection of archived papers held at the Jawdat R. Haydar Memorial Study Room in the Riyad Nassar Library at the Lebanese American University, Beirut. Valuable for scholars and of interest to the general reader alike, it is the first time digitised images of Haydar’s handwritten poems have ever been published.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exegetical and practical commentary for pastors and teachers This volume in the Kregel Exegetical Library combines up-to-date scholarship and concrete application to serve as an ideal guide for preaching and teaching the foundational New Testament book of Romans. After an in-depth introduction that surveys the book's key elements, reception history, literary devices, and current scholarly debates, John D. Harvey provides a thorough explanation of every verse of Romans followed by theological insights and hands-on takeaways. Readers will benefit from Harvey's approach, which asks and answers three questions about each verse: (1) What did Paul say? (2) Why did he say it? (3) What should I do with it? Outlines and summaries provide useful homiletical and pedagogical tools, while footnotes point to resources for further study.

Book excerpt: Magnetic Resonance Neuroimaging is a comprehensive volume that focuses on the newest fields of MRI from functional and metabolic mapping to the latest applications of neuro-interventional techniques. Each chapter offers critical discussions regarding available methods and the most recent advances in neuroimaging, including such topics as the use of diffusion and perfusion MRI in the early detection of stroke, the revolutionary advent of high-speed MRI for non-invasively mapping cortical responses to task activation paradigms, and the principles and applications of contrast agents. The chapters also discuss how these new advances are applied to problems in patients ranging in age from the newborn to the elderly, as well as disease states ranging from metabolic encephalopathy to cardiovascular disorders and stroke. Magnetic Resonance Neuroimaging will be a valuable text/reference for residents, research fellows, and clinicians in radiology, neuroradiology, and magnetic resonance imaging.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I planned this book seven years ago I had my graduate students at the University of Ulm in mind, diploma as well as doctoral students, who often asked me what literature they should work with. I used to suggest a list of ten to twenty (for my taste: excellent) treatises on NMR. Apparently this did not make them entirely happy. The difficulty which newcomers to the field face is to practise and to apply theoretical formalisms from different sources while still learning the principles of NMR and being actively engaged in NMR research. Although the text presented here is largely based on my lecture notes, the result is a "working book" rather than an introduction. It is intended to provide direct access to the basic information one needs for NMR diffusometry, relaxometry, and tomography applications. A "working book" is certainly not suitable to be read starting on page one and then carrying on until the last page. Boldly extrapolating my own reading habits to those of the typical scientist I am sure that this is not the way in which monographs of this kind are read nowadays. So my aim was to produce a treatise that offers easy and quick access for the reader to relevant matters of interest. I tried hard to ease the comprehension of NMR principles by extensive cross-referencing among the sections and chapters. Tomography, diffusometry and relaxometry are fields based on common phys ical principles.

This book was released on 1995-11-29 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the historical background as well as the up-to-date developments in, and guidelines for, bioradicals and ESR research. Bioradicals Detected by ESR Spectroscopy is a newly coined term which encompasses paramagnetic species in biological systems, such as active oxygen radicals and transition metal ions. Research on the structures and functions of bioradicals have been attracting growing attention in the biological sciences, resulting in an increasing demand for comprehensive studies which allow researchers from many fields to understand the true importance of these species. ESR spectroscopy is of great interest to interdisciplinary research and is applied in many fields, ranging from physics and chemistry to biology and medicine. New ESR technologies of multiquantum ESR, STM-ESR and open-space ESR, several ESR imaging techniques, spin trapping and new methods in in vivo spin trapping are all described and discussed in this volume. In addition, it demonstrates the applications of ESR in food and medical sciences, i.e., the estimation and characterization of the antioxidant ability of foods and food components and the elucidation of the underlying chemical mechanisms.
