First published in 1985. The event model presented in this study,
attempts a framework for integrating psychoanalytic and Piagetian
psychologies centered in the notion that development occurs by the
differentiation of self and nonself. Its aim is to understand
phenomena conceptualized in psychoanalytic terms in a model based
on this Piagetian perspective, or, in other words, to provide an
object-relational model for the development of psychic structure
analytic and Piagetian psychologies centered in the notion that
development occurs by the differentiation of self and nonself.

Historic House Museums in the United States and the United Kingdom:
A History addresses the phenomenon of historic houses as a distinct
species of museum. Everyone understands the special nature of an
art museum, a national museum, or a science museum, but "house
museum" nearly always requires clarification. In the United States
the term is almost synonymous with historic preservation; in the
United Kingdom, it is simply unfamiliar, the very idea being
conflated with stately homes and the National Trust. By analyzing
the motivation of the founders, and subsequent keepers, of house
museums, Linda Young identifies a typology that casts light on what
house museums were intended to represent and their significance (or
lack thereof) today. This book examines: * heroes' houses: once
inhabited by great persons (e.g., Shakespeare's birthplace,
Washington's Mount Vernon); * artwork houses: national identity as
specially visible in house design, style, and technique (e.g.,
Frank Lloyd Wright houses, Modernist houses); * collectors' houses:
a microcosm of collecting in situ domesticu, subsequently presented
to the nation as the exemplars of taste (e.g., Sir John Soane's
Museum, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum); * English country houses:
the palaces of the aristocracy, maintained thanks to primogeniture
but threatened with redundancy and rescued as museums to be touted
as the peak of English national culture; English country houses:
the palaces of the aristocracy, maintained for centuries thanks to
primogeniture but threatened by redundancy and strangely rescued as
museums, now touted as the peak of English national culture; *
Everyman/woman's social history houses: the modern, demotic
response to elite houses, presented as social history but tinged
with generic ancestor veneration (e.g., tenement house museums in
Glasgow and New York).
This text focuses on the utility of probability in solving
real-world problems for students in a one-semester calculus-based
probability course. Theory is developed to a practical degree and
grounded in discussion of its practical uses in solving real-world
problems. Numerous applications using up-to-date real data in
engineering and the life, social, and physical sciences illustrate
and motivate the many ways probability affects our lives. The
text's accessible presentation carefully progresses from routine to
more difficult problems to suit students of different backgrounds,
and carefully explains how and where to apply methods. Students
going on to more advanced courses in probability and statistics
will gain a solid background in fundamental concepts and theory,
while students who must apply probability to their courses
engineering and the sciences will develop a working knowledge of
the subject and appreciation of its practical power.
