This volume provides a timely and authoritative account of Chlamydia and of the widespread, debilitating consequences of these microbial infections on humans. Sexually transmitted disease caused by C. trachomatis and the resulting infertility is of global importance. Trachoma itself is the world’s major cause of preventable blindness affecting some 400 million people. C psittaci produces serious infection in a wide range of animals as well as in man. Growing awareness of the clinical importance of chlarnydial infection has been paralleled by an explosion in basic research on Chlamydia. L

Climate change is one of the most pressing issues affecting the world today. Although half of the world’s population lives in urban areas, little consideration has been given to the effects that climate change will have on urban dwellers, especially in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Yet these regions have most of the world’s urban population, including most of its largest cities. Their urban centers already face a wide variety of environmental and development challenges, including large sections of their populations living in informal settlements, often on sites at risk from extre

This invaluable book teaches readers a unified design methodology. After providing some introductory material, it guides students through MSI and LSI combinatorial loci elements, emphasizing devices that can be programmed for specific applications. The rest of the book deals mainly with synchronous sequential logic. Throughout, problems with step-by-step solutions and delayed answers help readers guage their progress, deepen their comprehension, and sharpen their analytical skills.

Since its first edition was published in 1962, Fundamentals of Tool Design has been an outstanding source of information for tool designers. From classrooms to the design shops of major corporations around the world, this proven resource has demonstrated its value. The creation of a fifth edition is proof of the continuing vitality of the book’s contents, including; tool design and materials; jigs and fixtures; workholding principles; die manipulation; inspection, gaging, and tolerances; computer hardware and software and their applications; joining processes, and pressworking tool desig

This book is the first of two volumes, which represent leading themes of current research in automorphic forms and representation theory of reductive groups over local fields. Articles in this volume mainly represent global aspects of automorphic forms. Among the topics are the trace formula; functoriality; representations of reductive groups over local fields; the relative trace formula and periods of automorphic forms; Rankin - Selberg convolutions and L-functions; and, p-adic L-functions. The articles are written by leading researchers in the field, and bring the reader, advanced graduate s
