Translations of two neuroscientific articles by Freud are presented here for the first time in English. Alongside these, the editors offer convincing arguments for their importance to both psychoanalysis and neuroscience. These articles helped provide the catalyst for the modern activity in the field, and will prove fascinating to anyone interested in the origins of this bold new movement. Between 1877 and 1900, Sigmund Freud published over one hundred neuroscientific works, only seven of which have previously appeared in English translation. Aphasie and Gehirn, the two articles presented in A Moment of Transition, were originally composed in 1888 as dictionary entries for the Handwortebuch der gesamten Medizin edited by Albert Villaret. They therefore date from a pivotal period of Freud's career when a growing interest in psychology had already begun to vie with strictly neurological endeavors; a shift of emphasis reflected in the novel and independent conceptual position adopted in both papers, prefiguring Freud's later work On Aphasia and certain aspects of the Project for a Scientific Psychology.

"Aviation Logistics" demonstrates and explains how the rapidly evolving global logistics industry works in close partnership with the aviation operators to achieve fast and efficient facilitation. It examines the different sectors of products used by air freight and how carriers are responding to market demands with new and better methods and technologies.

Technology and its resulting efficiency and transparency are a central part: for example, the adoption of electronic processing systems, screening of cargo, new warehousing technologies and the ability to track shipments through the system, are facilitating faster deliveries and reducing loss. Global markets and economies are constantly evolving and the supply chain business with its transport partners must be proactive for the future.

"Aviation Logistics" also reviews the changes in manufacturing and production methods -- these will be illustrated by case studies which will illustrate how different challenges are met in varied markets.
