originally published between 1910 and 1965. The titles include
works by key figures such asC.G. Jung, Sigmund Freud, Jean Piaget,
Otto Rank, James Hillman, Erich Fromm, Karen Horney and Susan
Isaacs. Each volume is available on its own, as part of a themed
mini-set, or as part of a specially-priced 204-volume set. A
brochure listing each title in the "International Library of
Psychology" series is available upon request.
First published in 1999. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
Through this book, upper undergraduate mathematics majors will
master a challenging yet rewarding subject, and approach advanced
studies in algebra, number theory and geometry with confidence.
Groups, rings and fields are covered in depth with a strong
emphasis on irreducible polynomials, a fresh approach to modules
and linear algebra, a fresh take on Groebner theory, and a group
theoretic treatment of Rejewski's deciphering of the Enigma
machine. It includes a detailed treatment of the basics on finite
groups, including Sylow theory and the structure of finite abelian
groups. Galois theory and its applications to polynomial equations
and geometric constructions are treated in depth. Those interested
in computations will appreciate the novel treatment of division
algorithms. This rigorous text 'gets to the point', focusing on
concisely demonstrating the concept at hand, taking a 'definitions
first, examples next' approach. Exercises reinforce the main ideas
of the text and encourage students' creativity.
In Urban Sprawl and Public Health, Howard Frumkin, Lawrence Frank,
and Richard Jackson, three of the nation's leading public health
and urban planning experts explore an intriguing question: How does
the physical environment in which we live affect our health? For
decades, growth and development in our communities has been of the
low-density, automobile-dependent type known as sprawl. The authors
examine the direct and indirect impacts of sprawl on human health
and well-being, and discuss the prospects for improving public
health through alternative approaches to design, land use, and
transportation.
Urban Sprawl and Public Health offers a comprehensive look at the
interface of urban planning, architecture, transportation,
community design, and public health. It summarizes the evidence
linking adverse health outcomes with sprawling development, and
outlines the complex challenges of developing policy that promotes
and protects public health. Anyone concerned with issues of public
health, urban planning, transportation, architecture, or the
environment will want to read Urban Sprawl and Public Health.
