Major events and personalities of 20th-century physics are portrayed in the recollections and in the historiographical works of one of the prominent figures of European science. A former student of Enrico Fermi, and a leading personality of physical research and science policy in postwar Italy, Edoardo Amaldi devoted part of his activity to document, both as witness and as historian, some significant moments of 20th-century science. The focus in this volume is on the European scene, ranging from nuclear research in Rome in the 1930s to particle physics at CERN, and including biographies of suc

Environmental voluntary agreements (VAs) between regulators and polluters are becoming an increasingly relevant environmental policy instrument, thanks to their flexibility and consensual character. These agreements can assume a wide variety of forms and aims. Efficiency conditions and effectiveness in their use depend on their design, rules of implementation and framework conditions. The book provides a comprehensive economic theory and analysis of environmental voluntary agreements, which takes into account the variety of forms and application situations characterizing this environmental po

Perimetry and the Fundus: An Introduction to Microperimetry is an innovative and comprehensive text that provides essential information about microperimetry, the latest approach in evaluating the fundus and diagnosing retinal and optic nerve dysfunction and diseases. Inside Perimetry and the Fundus, Dr. Edoardo Midena details how this technique is performed and discusses how testing patterns can be tailored to a variety of retinal, macular, and optic nerve disorders. Perimetry and the Fundus offers a detailed explanation of how microperimetry is used to topographically locate retinal fixat

This account of deformation theory in classical algebraic geometry over an algebraically closed field presents for the first time some results previously scattered in the literature, with proofs that are relatively little known, yet relevant to algebraic geometers. Many examples are provided. Most of the algebraic results needed are proved. The style of exposition is kept at a level amenable to graduate students with an average background in algebraic geometry.

Featuring essays by leading international philosophers, the collection examines the key theme of representation in Wittgenstein’s philosophy. Organised into three clear parts the book considers representation in cognition, in language and in what cannot be represented - the absolute. The first part applies Wittgenstein to leadin
