This volume provides the most recent snapshot of a vibrant, transnational Mexican community that has been the object of researchers' attention since 1976. Based on fieldwork conducted in 2013 in Tlacuitapa, Jalisco, and in its U.S. satellite communities, the book examines both recent migration trends and the ways in which migration to the United States is shaping the health circumstances and experiences of migrants and those whom they leave behind. Building on previous research concerning the impacts of the Great Recession of 2007-09 on decisions to migrate and to settle in the United States, the researchers show how economic and social factors exert much greater influence on decisions to settle in the United States or return to Mexico than U.S. policy measures, such as border enforcement and the Obama administration's program to suspend deportation of young undocumented migrants. Health-related issues explored in this book include access to health care on both sides of the border, chronic disease management, workplace health hazards, and migration-related factors influencing the risk of HIV transmission. These issues are hardly unique to Tlacuitapa; they broadly characterize other high-emigration communities in Mexico. What makes the most recent research done among Tlacuitapenses unique is that it is part of a sustained effort to document social, economic, and policy-related phenomena occurring in a specific migrant-sending community and its U.S. expatriate communities over nearly four decades, using a multidisciplinary, binational approach.

The Wall Between Us examines the experiences indigenous Mixteco migrants from Oaxaca living in the United States and their family members who remain in Mexico. Covering topics that range from border crossing experiences to the education of youth to mental health, the book provides a scholarly analysis of current migration from Mexico to the United States.

Introducing Cecil Herbert Woolley - wealthy, educated, affected, infuriating, well-spoken, well-dressed, a gentleman, a curious sort, a well-rounded chap, a lover of art, a one-time ladies man, witty and occasionally wise, once attractive and now well worn, functionally alcoholic, kind to animals and a so-so pianist. Cecil Herbert Woolley is also a consulting detective, world renowned for his knowledge of, and some say first-hand experience with, the occult. The Blood Red Heiress, David Keyes' second novel, is a rollicking, cocktail-fueled occult mystery featuring the detective Cecil Herbert Woolley, his manservant Benedict and the love of his life, Clemency de la Tour.

Many engineering and scientific problems in design, control, and parameter estimation can be formulated as optimization problems that are governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). The complexities of the PDEs - and the requirement for rapid solution - pose significant difficulties. A particularly challenging class of PDE-constrained optimization problems is characterized by the need for real-time solution, i.e., in time scales that are sufficiently rapid to support simulation-based decision making. Real-Time PDE-Constrained Optimization, the first book devoted to real-time optimization for systems governed by PDEs, focuses on new formulations, methods, and algorithms needed to facilitate real-time, PDE-constrained optimization. In addition to presenting state-of-the-art algorithms and formulations, the text illustrates these algorithms with a diverse set of applications that includes problems in the areas of aerodynamics, biology, fluid dynamics, medicine, chemical processes, homeland security, and structural dynamics. Despite difficulties, there is a pressing need to capitalize on continuing advances in computing power to develop optimization methods that will replace simple rule-based decision making with optimized decisions based on complex PDE simulations.
