With more than 70 per cent of murders of Partido de la Revolucion Democratica members remaining unsolved, this study of the causes of political killings in Mexico's ongoing process of democratization puts them firmly in the context of political repression.

Using Verilog models and test benches for implementing and explaining fault simulation and test generation algorithms, this book treats the concepts of testing and testability in digital systems, and also covers digital design practices and methodologies.

Diagnostic Pathology of Pleuropulmonary Neoplasia highlights the morphologic basis, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and molecular biology of tumoral and pseudotumoral conditions of the lung and pleura.

This book offers a psychobiological model for understanding the paths that lead people to illness, and suggests changes in maladaptive pathways. Covers stress-related illnesses including genetic-psychobiological etiology, and outlines multilevel interventions.

This Handbook fills the gaps of Open Geometry by explaining new methods, techniques and various examples. One its main strengths is that it enables the reader to learn about Open Geometry by working through examples. In addition, it includes a complete compendium of all the Open Geometry classes and their methods.

This review of literature on perspective constructions from the Renaissance through the 18th century covers 175 authors, emphasizing Peiro della Francesca, Guidobaldo del Monte, Simon Stevin, Brook Taylor, and Johann Heinrich.

This book explores the effects of microdynamics, such as interactions among individuals, on larger social systems, from corporate and categoric units to institutional domains, stratification systems, community networks, societies, and inter-societal systems.

Allan Bromley, Science Advisor to President Bush during 1989-1983 and past president of the American Physical Society, conveys much of the excitement and wonder that research in physics generated in the 20th century and asks what new things are in store in the next century.

The new edition of this book shows how economists can use the analytical network process to supplement mathematical models, how it helps social scientists derive measurements for intangibles, and how engineers can link hard measurement to human values.

This in-depth study of the childhood loneliness relates their individual characteristics to contextual conditions at home and at school. It presents new strategies for coping with childhood loneliness, including preventive and intervention approaches.

Fueled by a consistent narrative and a lucid ethical stance, this book analyzes the increasing role legal systems play in family life and traces rapidly evolving legal concepts as they apply to child protection.
