After a foreword by Klaus von Klitzing, the first chapters of this
book discuss the prehistory and the theoretical basis as well as
the implications of the discovery of the Quantum Hall effect on
superconductivity, superfluidity, and metrology, including
experimentation. The second half of this volume is concerned with
the theory of and experiments on the many body problem posed by
fractional effect. Specific unsolved problems are mentioned
throughout the book and a summary is made in the final chapter. The
quantum Hall effect was discovered on about the hundredth
anniversary of Hall's original work, and the finding was announced
in 1980 by von Klitzing, Dorda and Pepper. Klaus von KIitzing was
awarded the 1985 Nobel prize in physics for this discovery.

Roger Duncan recounts four hundred years of Maine's rich maritime
history, from the early seafarers' discovery of its valuable
resources and the families that settled the land, to Maine's role
in the history of the US in peacetime and in war. He traces the
changes in Maine's economy over the past century: the demise of the
coastal trade; the burgeoning popularity of pleasure boating after
World War II; the hardships that beset the fishing and lumber
industries; and the rise of tourism. This anecdotal panorama of
people, land, boats, and water will absorb historians, nautical
enthusiasts, and New Englanders alike.
A practical how-to guide to developing, implementing, evaluating,
and sustaining effective family life education programs. Drawing on
the best scholarship and their own years of professional
experience, the authors of this thoroughly updated Third Edition
begin by discussing the foundations of family life education and
encourage readers to develop their own outreach philosophies. The
book then helps readers learn principles and methods for reaching
out to the public and how to form and use community collaborations
and use principles of social marketing to promote programs.
This is the story of Dorothy Elizabeth, a 28-foot schooner.
Particularly, it is the story of why to build a traditional wooden
sailing vessel that relies on age-old methods and materials, yet
also embraces newfangled technologies. But mostly it is the story
of the people—a score of craftsmen and craftswomen, friends, and
family—who give their skill, advice, support, ingenuity, and time
to turn the idea of Dorothy Elizabeth into a graceful, seaworthy
reality. You will meet Ralph Stanley of Southwest Harbor, Maine,
one of the world's great designers and builders of traditional
wooden boats, and a disarmingly plainspoken master craftsman in the
maritime Maine tradition. You will meet Mary Chandler Duncan, a
poet and the author's wife, soul mate, and first mate. You will
meet Nat Wilson, sail maker, who took time out from building
topsails for the USS Constitution to build sails for Dorothy
Elizabeth. You will meet Frank Luke, neighbor, boatyard owner,
all-around helper, and the man who launched Dorothy Elizabeth. And
you will meet many other singular people up and down the coast from
Portland, Maine, to Lunnenberg, Nova Scotia, and beyond, drawn
together by the building of a boat.
