This classic text serves as a tool for self-study; it is also used
as a basic text for undergraduate courses in differential geometry.
The author's ability to extract the essential elements of the
theory in a lucid and concise fashion allows the student easy
access to the material and enables the instructor to add emphasis
and cover special topics. The extraordinary wealth of examples
within the exercises and the new material, ranging from
isoperimetric problems to comments on Einstein's original paper on
relativity theory, enhance this new edition.
Terrorism and torture are twin evils that have dominated news
headlines - particularly since the horrifying events of 9/11. In
this thought-provoking volume, scholars from a diverse range of
disciplines examine the complex motivational and situational
factors contributing to terrorist acts and state-sponsored torture,
and the potential linkage between those two heinous human
behaviors. They also consider the strategies that might reduce the
threat of future terrorist acts, and the perceived necessity to
engage in morally reprehensible - and often illegal - torture
practices. With its integrated synthesis of contemporary theories
and research on the complex dynamics of the terrorism-torture link,
this is an authoritative source for scholars and students of
psychology, criminal justice, law, media, communication studies,
and political science. It will also appeal to students of other
disciplines with an interest in the study of terrorism and torture.

Geometric Measure Theory: A Beginner's Guide, Fifth Edition
provides the framework readers need to understand the structure of
a crystal, a soap bubble cluster, or a universe. The book is
essential to any student who wants to learn geometric measure
theory, and will appeal to researchers and mathematicians working
in the field. Brevity, clarity, and scope make this classic book an
excellent introduction to more complex ideas from geometric measure
theory and the calculus of variations for beginning graduate
students and researchers. Morgan emphasizes geometry over proofs
and technicalities, providing a fast and efficient insight into
many aspects of the subject, with new coverage to this edition
including topical coverage of the Log Convex Density Conjecture, a
major new theorem at the center of an area of mathematics that has
exploded since its appearance in Perelman's proof of the Poincare
conjecture, and new topical coverage of manifolds taking into
account all recent research advances in theory and applications.

Over 90 poems written over two years by Brother Frank Morgan, an 86
year old great grandfather. His family and friends waited anxiously
for his "weekly" poem.
The heartwarming and stimulating tale of Adam and the unlikely team
of friends drawn together to solve the mystery of his identity.
Against a subtle background of middle eastern ethnic strife,
inspector Qedemah Sadeq and doctor Sarah Berit and their families
and associates are drawn into the arena of conflicting ideologies.
Strong differences in national and ethnic origins, religion, age,
and social status are overcome by friendship in the search for
Adam's roots. An interfaith tour of Israel and the influence of
Greek thought bring a deeper quest to the seekers, creating tension
between faith and mathematics, religion and science, modernity and
traditional values as Adam's friends find their beliefs and
emotions stretched by Adam's journey. The search for truth about
Adam becomes a challenge to his friends to take up the big
questions of meaning, reality, and their own identity as human
beings in the face of ethnic violence.
Why would a priest turn his back on his priesthood and walk away
from his religious vocation and its demanding responsibilities? Why
did he become a priest in the first place? And how do such men make
reparations for their defection? Both Sides of the Altar strives to
look at these questions through one such priest's life, that of
Frank Morgan. This book was a "Labor of Love" for Fr. John A.
Hardon, s.j., now deceased, who urged him to put pen to paper to
tell his story. It traces Frank's life during the seminary, his
life as a priest in the 1940s and 1950s, and as a layperson in the
years that follow. Through it Frank walks through his own thought
processes as he looks back over 60 years, evoking the raw emotion
and feelings of his decision to leave behind his priestly ways, and
enter the life of a Lay Person. It compares how he was treated both
with kindness and with disdain. His narrative shows his constant
persistence in trying to serve the Roman Catholic Church throughout
his entire life. Truly showing both sides of the altar as only a
man who lived it can tell. Insights into the current plights the
Catholic Church faces, as well as poignant observations on
solutions are presented in a loving and well told tale through his
own voice. Frank's underlying love of the Church and its teachings
are a constant theme as he shares his life story.
