'This book presents a timely set of academic and intellectual views
on SalamaEURO (TM)s scientific passion, contribution and
personality, and will be of great interest to academics in the
fields of particle physics, high energy physics and scientific
history of the developing world.'Contemporary PhysicsIn honor of
one of the most prolific and exciting scientists of the second half
of the last century, a memorial meeting was organized by the
Institute of Advanced Studies at Nanyang Technological University
for Professor Abdus Salam's 90th Birthday in January 2016.Salam
believed that 'scientific thought is the common heritage of all
mankind' and that the developing world should play its part, not
merely by importing technology but by being the arbiter of its own
scientific destiny. That belief saw him rise from humble beginnings
in a village in Pakistan to become one of the world's most original
and influential particle physicists, culminating in the 1979 Nobel
Prize (shared with Glashow and Weinberg) for contributions to
electroweak unification, which forms an integral part of the
Standard Model.The book collected the papers presented at this
memorable event which saw many distinguished scientists
participating as speakers to reflect on Prof Salam's great passion
for the science and achievements.
Co-authored by James D. Brown (also known for A Biographical
Dictionary of Musicians) and Stephen S. Stratton, British Musical
Biography is an alphabetical reference work to the key achievements
of British musical artists, composers and authors from as early as
1042 AD to the end of the nineteenth century. It first appeared in
1897 as an experiment in publishing and was motivated partly by
patriotism on the part of the authors. It includes the names of
British composers and performers, their dates of birth and death,
brief biographies, and details of important works, their first
performance, and date of first publication. Interpreting their
brief to include the whole of the British empire, the authors have
included the names of well over 2,500 famous and lesser-known
musicians born in Britain and its colonies.
