As the postwar mass media in France imagined her, the teenage girl was no longer a demure and daughterly jeune fille. Instead, she was an enfant terrible, a "bad girl" -- implying that she was unapologetically and unsentimentally no longer a virgin.

An important part of the theory of VOAs concerns their modules and intertwining operators between modules. Feingold, Frenkel, and Ries defined a structure, called a vertex operator para-algebra (VOPA), where a VOA, its modules and their intertwining operators are unified. In this work, for each $n geq 1$, the author uses the bosonic construction (f

For the past decade, creativity has been extolled as a virtue in education, business, and the media.

The book demonstrates linkages among disciplines and cultures through the use of many illuminating examples-Egyptian pyramids, Chinese philosophy, Michelangelo, jazz, the United Nations, genetic engineering. Weiner analyzes the ways in
