This volume serves the multiple purposes of honoring Peter Fishburn’s contributions, providing both expository and new papers from leading figures in each of the areas of Fishburn’s research, and putting into one volume a wide variety of topics that are often not included together. These topics consider mathematical aspects of: social choice theory, decision theory, operations research, economics, political science, and psychology; as well as mathematical topics such as partial orders, graph theory, probability, and optimization. An important objective of this book is to demonstrat

Welcome to the completely revised edition of the market-leading Java exam preparation guide from Sybex! Authors Simon Roberts (the lead author of the Java exams), Philip Heller, and Michael Ernest have completely revamped their book, writing five new chapters on the tough Developer’s exam and adding lots of new questions (200 new ones in the book and on the CD). In response to reader feedback, we’ve cut out the long API reference that was in the previous edition and replaced it with more meaningful content. Finally, the CD now contains a fully searchable electronic edition of the b

The Hatteras lighthouse is more than a guiding light to seafarers, it also stands as a memorial to the keepers and their families who honored a public trust at great cost and who faithfully provided this valuable service. With the passing of time, however, the tides have gradually eroded the beach on which the sentinel stands, threatening to topple the structure. Thus one of the most daunting engineering tasks imaginable has been undertaken to save the lighthouse and move it to a new foundation 1,600 feet inland from its original site. This book commemorates the event and recalls th

For two-semester, junior/senior-level courses in the History of England. Volume II may be used for a one-semester course in Modern England. This two-volume broad, narrative account of English history--from the first settlers in the Paleolithic Age to the present day--draws on the most up-to-date primary and secondary research to illuminate the full range of England’s social, economic, cultural, and political past, and focuses on how and why events occurred.

This book, aimed at precollege teachers, shows how the role of simulation modeling in investigating dynamic processes is now extending beyond research and university environments to the precollege world. The introduction of computer modeling has the potential to significantly improve the quality of secondary science and mathematics education. Enhanced by the adoption of national standards, the increasing access to information through the Internet, and the availability of powerful, user-friendly modeling software, modeling has become even more accessible and relevant to the science and mathemat

This is the first book to examine domestic violence in terms of a continuum of five distinct categories or levels of woman battering. This book, based on 501 in-depth qualitative interviews, places emphasis on how to recognize the warning signs of a dangerous relationship and urges women who have been battered in a dating, cohabiting, or marital relationship to end it quickly. This very practical and comprehensive study, which took more than seven years to complete, includes a step by step safety protocol and survival guidelines. The primary advantage of this new classification system is th
