While bookstore shelves around the world have never ceased to display best-selling life-and-letters biographies in prominent positions, the genre became less popular among academic historians during the Cold War decades. Their main concern then was with political and socioeconomic structures, institutions, and organizations, or more recently with the daily lives of ordinary people and small communities. The contributors to this volume all well known senior historians offer self-critical reflections on problems they encountered when writing biographies themselves. Some of them also deal with to

This book gives a comprehensive introduction to complex analysis in several variables. It clearly focusses on special topics in complex analysis rather than trying to encompass as much material as possible. Many cross-references to other parts of mathematics, such as functional analysis or algebras, are pointed out in order to broaden the view and the understanding of the chosen topics. A major focus is extension phenomena alien to the one-dimensional theory, which are expressed in the famous Hartog’s Kugelsatz, the theorem of Cartan-Thullen, and Bochner’s theorem. The book primar

Winner, Scholarly Illustrated Category, 2003 Association of American University Presses (AAUP) Book, Jacket, and Journal Show. The Scottish urbanist and biologist Patrick Geddes (1854-1932) is perhaps best known for introducing the concept of "region" to architecture and planning. At the turn of the twentieth century, he was one of the strongest advocates of town planning and an active participant in debates about the future of the city. He was arguably the first planner to recognize the importance of historic city centers, and his renewal work in Edinburgh’s Old Town is visible and impre
