The Walt Disney animated version of the old tale of love, courage
and friendship with a backdrop of the New World. Pocahontas is a
Native American girl whose life, and that of her tribe, is
dramatically changed by the arrival of a shipload of English
settlers. Amongst them is the handsome adventurer Captain John
Smith (voiced by Mel Gibson), who falls for the pretty young lady.
Songs and comedy from cuddly cute characters mix with adventure and
excitement to create a charming tale.
When the stream of plasma emitted from the Sun (the solar wind)
encounters Earth's magnetic field, it slows down and flows around
it, leaving behind a cavity, the magnetosphere. The magnetopause is
the surface that separates the solar wind on the outside from the
Earth's magnetic field on the inside. Because the solar wind moves
at supersonic speed, a bow shock must form ahead of the
magnetopause that acts to slow the solar wind to subsonic speeds.
Magnetopause, bow shock and their environs are rich in exciting
processes in collisionless plasmas, such as shock formation,
magnetic reconnection, particle acceleration and wave-particle
interactions. They are interesting in their own right, as part of
Earth's environment, but also because they are prototypes of
similar structures and phenomena that are ubiquitous in the
universe, having the unique advantage that they are accessible to
in situ measurements. The boundaries of the magnetosphere have been
the target of direct in-situ measurements since the beginning of
the space age. But because they are constantly moving, changing
their orientation, and undergoing evolution, the interpretation of
single-spacecraft measurements has been plagued by the fundamental
inability of a single observer to unambiguously distinguish spatial
from temporal changes. The boundaries are thus a prime target for
the study by a closely spaced fleet of spacecraft. Thus the Cluster
mission, with its four spacecraft in a three-dimensional
configuration at variable separation distances, represents a giant
step forward. This 20th volume of the ISSI Space Science Series
represents the first synthesis of the exciting new results obtained
in the first few years of the Cluster mission.
Originally published in 1978, the contributors to this volume,
including the leading figures in experimental psychopathology, were
largely concerned with deducing the behaviour of schizophrenics
from general psychological theories of language, learning and
cognition. Their emphasis on deduction reflected a modern reliance
on laboratory experimentation, and, taken as a whole, the chapters
cover the breadth and variety of current approaches of the time to
the study of schizophrenic language and cognition. The first part
of the volume is concerned with recent developments in the study of
schizophrenic language. The second part deals with various aspects
of schizophrenic cognition. The final chapter, by the editor,
attempts to review and integrate what was currently known about
schizophrenic cognition and language. This chapter contrasts the
various experimental methodologies used to validate theories by
pointing out areas of agreement and disagreement as well as
possible directions for future theory and research. Here is a book
that at the time presented the most up-to-date overview available
on language and thought in schizophrenia. Today it can be read and
enjoyed in its historical context.
In 1934, the Pacific Coast was shaken by a massive strike of
waterfront workers- on the docks and the ships. In this mighty
struggle, the Sailor's Union of the Pacific, quiescent since it's
defeat in the period after the first World War was reborn. Fighting
on San Francisco's Embarcadero led to the stationing of National
Guard troops on the 'front'. This book looks at the Union from 1885
to 1985.

Nominated for a whopping 10 Tony Awards and grossing more than $1 million each week, Wicked is this year's Broadway smash! A prequel to the all-American classic The Wizard of Oz, this new musical is a character study of Elphaba and Glinda, school roommates who grow up to become the Wicked Witch and the Good Witch, respectively. We are very proud to offer two songbooks featuring this delightful music: a Vocal Selections book which contains the vocal line with piano accompaniment (00313268), and a Piano/Vocal Selections book, in standard piano/vocal format with the melody in the piano part (00313267). Both songbooks feature a special section of color photos from the production, a note from composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz, and these fantastic tunes: As Long as You're Mine * Dancing Through Life * Defying Gravity * For Good * I Couldn't Be Happier * I'm Not That Girl * No Good Deed * No One Mourns the Wicked * One Short Day * Popular * What Is This Feeling? * The Wizard and I * Wonderful.

Decision making is the physician's major activity. Every day, in
doctors' offices throughout the world, patients describe their
symptoms and com plaints while doctors perform examinations, order
tests, and, on the basis of these data, decide what is wrong and
what should be done. Although the process may appear routine-even
to the physicians in volved-each step in the sequence requires
skilled clinical judgment. Physicians must decide: which symptoms
are important, whether any laboratory tests should be done, how the
various items of clinical data should be combined, and, finally,
which of several treatments (including doing nothing) is indicated.
Although much of the information used in clinical decision making
is objective, the physician's values (a belief that pain relief is
more important than potential addiction to pain-killing drugs, for
example) and subjectivity are as much a part of the clinical
process as the objective findings of laboratory tests. In recent
years, both physicians and psychologists have come to realize that
patient management decisions are not only subjective but also prob
abilistic (although this is not always acknowledged overtly). When
doc tors argue that an operation is fairly safe because it has a
mortality rate of only 1 %, they are at least implicitly admitting
that the outcome of their decision is based on probability."
