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

Weiss (1889-1970) was a favored disciple of Freud and is acknowledged as the founder of psychoanalysis in Italy. Although he was the author of six books and over a hundred professional papers, he has remained a shadowy figure. In this volume, Roazen provides a definitive portrait of this notable individual. Based on his extensive interviews with Weiss, Roazen evaluates the significance of Weiss’s own contribution to psychoanalytic thought and practice and through his analysis of Weiss, provides a fascinating picture of the reception given to Freud’s thought in Italy.

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.
