Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

What does it mean to be middle class in contemporary global cities? What do the middle classes do to these cities and what do these cities do to the middle classes? Do the middle classes engage in social mix or are they focused on 'people like us'? Based on comparative study this book explores middle-class identities across Paris and London.

This unique textbook explores core cognitive psychology topics from an innovative new perspective, focusing on key real-world issues to show how we understand and experience the world. The book examines compelling topics such as creativity, problem-solving, reasoning, rationality and language, all within the context of modern 21st century life. Each chapter demonstrates how this vibrant and constantly evolving discipline is at the heart of some of the biggest issues facing us all today. The last chapter discusses the future of cognitive psychology, which includes guidance on conducting rigorous, replicable research and how to use skills from cognitive psychology to be an effective student. Packed with pedagogical features, each chapter includes boxed examples of cognitive psychology in the real world and engaging ‘try it yourself’ features. Each chapter also includes objectives, a range of illustrative figures, chapter summaries, key readings and a glossary for ease of use. The book is fully supported by original online resources for students and instructors. Offering a new model for the study of cognitive psychology that brings the subject alive, the book is essential reading for all students studying psychology and related disciplines.

The Emerald Notebook contains one page poems, each titled by the day in which it was written. it is a journal of sorts, truthful parts of my life and mind. little editing was done to these poems, so they are truly rough jewels i hope you will see beauty in.

Over the past decade, South Carolina State agencies employing healthcare workers have experienced ongoing challenges in recruiting and retaining employees in critical healthcare professions such as nurses, social workers, nutritionists, psychiatrists, and physicians. In 2004 the Budget and Control Board implemented guidelines for a Healthcare Employees Recruitment and Retention Pilot to assist agencies in recruitment and retention efforts. Through this project, the author will evaluate the results of the Healthcare Program to determine its effectiveness in recruiting and retaining employees in critical needs classifications.

This work presents an overview of ballistic missile defense (BMD) initiatives and their attendant technologies with a careful analysis of their existing capabilities and potentialities to make recommendations as to the BMD initiatives that are most likely to provide realistic expectations of useful defense capabilities in the near to mid-term. There is also an extended discussion of the implications of BMD in the relationships of the United States and the nations of Asia, particularly Russia, China, India, Pakistan, Iran, North Korea, and Japan.

after watching several people close to me suffer through disease, some successfully, some not, i began to think about diseases: how we fight them, how we don't, alone and together. above all, this is a poem about working through what life has to offer us, good and bad, and the reasons we do it.

Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) is a relatively new and rapidly growing field of research. Several advances to the MEMS and microsystem state of the art were achieved through the design and characterization of novel MEMS devices and packaging, which are compatible with CMOS microelectronics. Empirical and theoretical models of polysilicon thermal actuators were developed to understand and simulate the behavior of thermal actuators. These models can be implemented in microelectronic circuit simulators such as SPICE and allow the simultaneous simulation of thermally actuated MEMS and microelectronics. The most extensive investigation of the Multi-User MEMS Processes (MUMPs) polysilicon resistivity was also performed. The first published value for the thermal coefficient of resistivity (TCR) of the MUMPs Poly 1 layer was determined as 1.25 x 10-3 K-1. In addition, the sheet resistance of all the MUMPs polysilicon layers was found to be dependent on the linewidth due to the presence or absence of lateral phosphorus diffusion.
