This book addresses a fundamental question in the philosophy of religion. Can religious experience provide evidence for religious belief? If so, how? Keith Yandell argues against the notion that religious experience is ineffable, while advocating the view that strong numinous experience provides some evidence that God exists. An attractive feature of the book is that it does not confine its attention to any one religious cultural tradition, but tracks the nature of religious experience across different traditions in both the East and the West.Book DescriptionArguing against the notion that rel

In a memorable address given at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris in 1900, David Hilbert, perhaps the most respected mathematician of his time, developed a blueprint for mathematical research in the new century. The collections of problems he presented in that address has become a guiding inspiration to many mathematicians, and those who have succeeded in solving or advancing their solutions form an Honors Class among research mathematicians. With the support of many of the major players in the field, the author has written an engaging account of the achievements of

In acquiring and mastering sports skills, a picture is often worth a thousand words. Research shows most athletes learn skills better through visual demonstration than through verbal instruction. If you?re a visual learner, Visual Tennis may be the most natural and effective way to improve your game. As former tennis great John McEnroe?who used Visual Tennis techniques to correct his serve during his pro career?explains it, "This book teaches the way players actually learn." The classical photo sequences combine with simple checkpoints to show exactly how to execute the game?s core technical e

Sequence similarity is a powerful tool for discovering biological function. Just as the ancient Greeks used comparative anatomy to understand the human body and linguists used the Rosetta stone to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphs, today we can use comparative sequence analysis to understand genomes. BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool), is a sophisticated software package for rapid searching of nucleotide and protein databases. It is one of the most important software packages used in sequence analysis and bioinformatics. Most users of BLAST, however, seldom move beyond the program’s d

In the title story, Car’line Aspent, bewitched and seduced by the dazzling fiddler Mop Ollamoor, rejects her loyal suitor Ned only to repent her decision and seek him out years later. The ten other stories share the theme of love, but they are more than simple love stories. Written with Hardy’s customary compassion for ordinary women and his sharp sense of irony, they tell of romantic disasters, betrayals, misunderstandings, and cruelties. The stories in this collection were written between 1888 and 1900, when Hardy was also writing his greatest and most important novels.

This book presents a collection of articles that cover areas of mathematics related to dynamical systems. The authors are well-known experts who use geometric and probabilistic methods to study interesting problems in the theory of dynamical systems and its applications. Some of the articles are surveys while others are original contributions. The topics covered include: Riemannian geometry, models in mathematical physics and mathematical biology, symbolic dynamics, random and stochastic dynamics. This book can be used by graduate students and researchers in dynamical systems and its applicati

From the Foreword by John J. Sciarra, M.D., Ph.D., Thomas J. Watkins Professor and Chairman of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Past President of FIGO, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago: "This book is by far the most comprehensive and up-to-date source on multiple pregnancy. It discusses cutting-edge options and technologies, and covers subjects not mentioned in other monographs on twins. Specifically, it describes the vanishing twin and its causes, congenital defects, selective reduction procedures, the use of ultrasound, and the twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. Additionally, it
