In feudal and early modern society, the nobility was a force of
major importance. Yet despite its undeniable influence on the
course of history, there has been a noticeable lack of published
material covering the ways in which nobility was (and sometimes
still is) defined in public law, as opposed to its political and
economic influence, or the legal privileges which noble status
guaranteed. In this major new four-volume work, Michael Sayer
provides an extensive survey of all the most significant primary
sources relating to the status of nobility in Europe from Roman
times through the Medieval period and beyond, setting them within
the broader historical context of the time. He also examines
separately the many juridical aspects of nobility - titles, arms,
heraldry, chivalric orders and knighthoods, and offices - providing
a thorough methodological basis for the study of nobility. As a
comprehensive survey of nobles and nobility in European society
over 2000 years, this book is an invaluable reference tool for
scholars and students.
In the last few decades the applications of piezoelectrics to
sensors have witnessed a dramatic acceleration and new devices and
materials have been discovered. Some of the highlights include
electrostrictive materials for positioners, relaxor-normal
ferroelectric single crystals with very high electromechanical
couplings for medical transducers, thin/thick PZT films for
microelectromechanical systems, starting from a sophisticated
chemical technology, and multilayer actuators fabricated by a
cofiring technique. All will make a remarkable industrial impact in
the 21st century.
