This book presents an introduction to the study of relationships
among per sonality, social skills, and psychopathology. Although
research findings dur ing the last decade have made it clear that
the relationships among these variables are almost always complex
and mUltiply determined, many clini cians and theoreticians have
not incorporated such complexities into their models of human
behavior and therapeutic intervention. This discrepancy between
clinical theory and research-based findings has been of special con
cern to us because we have been both empirically oriented academic
re searchers and practicing clinicians. It is our belief that
clinical theory relat ed to personality, social skills, and
psychopathology can be enriched by re search findings from a wide
range of fields-from human genetics, tempera ment, and personality
to family systems, affect, psychophysiology, and learning. This
book is divided into an introductory chapter and three sections.
The introductory chapter provides an overview of the issues in the
field, compares models, and provides suggestions for further
integration and ar ticulation of concepts related to personality,
social skills, and psycho pathology. The book's first section
presents state-of-the-art general models of interactions among
personality, social skills, and psychopathology. Con nolly opens
this section with a chapter that reviews longitudinal findings in
dicating that personality traits predict the onset of
psychopathology and marital distress. The etiology of these and
related findings is the subject of other chapters in this section."

Time travelling adventure adaptation starring Neil Dickson in the
title role. New Yorker Jim Ferguson (Alex Hyde-White) is
spontaneously transported back in time to the skies of 1917 and
finds himself in the middle of an aerial battle during the First
World War. It transpires that he is the time twin of Royal Flying
Corps pilot James 'Biggles' Bigglesworth, meaning that whenever one
of them is in trouble, the other is transported through time to
come to their aid. As Biggles embarks on his latest dangerous
mission against the Germans, Jim struggles to maintain his normal
life back in the '80s and explain his unusual disappearances to
fiancée Debbie (Fiona Hutchison), while his services are repeatedly
called upon by his assigned twin.
The ICMS Workshop on Geometric and Combinatorial Methods in Group
Theory, held at Heriot-Watt University in 1993, brought together
some of the leading research workers in the subject. Some of the
survey articles and contributed papers presented at the meeting are
collected in this volume. The former cover a number of areas of
current interest and include papers by: S. M. Gersten, R. I.
Grigorchuk, P. H. Kropholler, A. Lubotzky, A. A. Razborov and E.
Zelmanov. The contributed articles, all refereed, range over a wide
number of topics in combinatorial and geometric group theory and
related topics. The volume represents a summary of the state of
knowledge of the field, and as such will be indispensable to all
research workers in the area.

The great M. R. James is the undisputed master of the ghost story.
So what happened when he set his sights on writing a fairy tale?
Nothing less than eerily bewitching magic... In this brilliant tale
which takes the form of a letter to a girl called Jane, the unnamed
main character, a man much like James himself, a studious and quiet
gentleman, tells of his strange experiences recently. His five
senses have been behaving oddly lately - he begins to hear
whispering words in the rush of a stream; stopping for a rest, he
dreams of a strange plant growing between tree-roots in a wood
through which the stream runs. On waking, and led along by the
stream's whispering, he finds that the place and the plant are
indeed real. He eats part of it, and a very peculiar thing happens
- suddenly he can see under the ground Astonished and fascinated,
he walks on. To his amazement, his new deeper vision enables him to
spy, buried a few inches beneath the surface, a mysterious metallic
box. Intrigued, he digs it up, but it seems completely sealed. Late
that night, back in his room, just when the moon shines directly
onto the box, cracks appear Inside are five jars, with odd ancient
writing on them giving tantalizing hints of what their contents
might be able to do... Now begins a fascinating journey into a
world none of us mere mortals can usually see: a world of weird
enchantment, where all is not as it seems, where fantastic beauty
is commonplace, where strange beings are hidden just out of sight
everywhere, and yet disturbing danger lurks around every corner...
Told in James' matter-of-fact prose, this journey into the unknown
stirs rich colours into a cloud of imaginative fancy, stunningly
creating an alternative world, just next to ours, which is both
captivating and eerie. This edition contains 7 evocative
illustrations by Gilbert James, which are precursors, in their
combination of fine line-work and otherworldly atmosphere, to the
work of Edward Gorey. Montague Rhodes James was born in 1862 at
Goodnestone in Kent. He attended King's College, Cambridge, and
later became its provost, leaving to take up the provost's position
at Eton College. He published many scholarly antiquarian works, but
quickly became known for his ghost stories, which are now
recognized as the finest in the genre; of these, four collections
were published. He died at Eton in 1936.
This resource comprises a collection of papers from participants at
the IMCS Workshop on Computational and Geometric Aspects of Modern
Algebra, held at Heriot-Watt University in 1998. Written by leading
researchers, the articles cover a wide range of topics in the
vibrant areas of word problems in algebra and geometric group
theory. This book represents a timely record of recent work and
provides an indication of the key areas of future development.
