Series Statement: Cambridge monographs on mathematical physics

Content: A paperback edition of a classic text, this book gives a unique survey of the known solutions of Einstein's field equations for vacuum, Einstein-Maxwell, pure radiation and perfect fluid sources. It introduces the foundations of differential geometry and Riemannian geometry and the methods used to characterize, find or construct solutions. The solutions are then considered, ordered by their symmetry group, their algebraic structure (Petrov type) or other invariant properties such as special subspaces or tensor fields and embedding properties. Includes all the developments in the field since the first edition and contains six completely new chapters, covering topics including generation methods and their application, colliding waves, classification of metrics by invariants and treatments of homothetic motions. This book is an important resource for graduates and researchers in relativity, theoretical physics, astrophysics and mathematics. It can also be used as an introductory text on some mathematical aspects of general relativity.

Content: What did the Enlightenment mean for people who were not intellectuals or members of a wealthy elite? In this incisive new book, Thomas Munck shows the profound impact of Enlightenment ideas on a broad range of social groups. Moving beyond traditional treatments, which tend to focus on leading individuals and salon culture, Munck demonstrates that the Enlightenment can be fruitfully studied from the vantage point of ordinary people. He focuses on Paris, London, and Hamburg, but draws comparisons across much of Europe. The book begins with Montesquieu's Persian Letters in 1721 and ends with the changing direction of the French Revolution in 1794, and with a reassessment of enlightened absolutism in the light of changing relationships between state and citizen. It will be an invaluable text for courses on the Enlightenment and provides a valuable new perspective for anyone studying eighteenth-century Europe or the history of ideas

Series Statement: Chicago guides to writing, editing, and publishing

Content: "With more than three-quarters of a million copies sold since its first publication, 'The Craft of Research' has helped generations of researchers at every level--from first-year undergraduates to advanced graduate students to research reporters in business and government--learn how to conduct effective and meaningful research. Conceived by seasoned researchers and educators Wayne C. Booth, Gregory G. Colomb, and Joseph M. Williams, this fundamental work explains how to find and evaluate sources, anticipate and respond to reader reservations, and integrate these pieces into an argument that stands up to reader critique. The fourth edition has been thoroughly but respectfully revised by Joseph Bizup and William T. FitzGerald. It retains the original five-part structure, as well as the sound advice of earlier editions, but reflects the way research and writing are taught and practiced today. Its chapters on finding and engaging sources now incorporate recent developments in library and Internet research, emphasizing new techniques made possible by online databases and search engines. Bizup and FitzGerald provide fresh examples and standardized terminology to clarify concepts like argument, warrant, and problem. Following the same guiding principle as earlier editions--that the skills of doing and reporting research are not just for elite students but for everyone--this new edition retains the accessible voice and direct approach that have made The Craft of Reasearch a leader in the field of research reference. With updated examples and information on evaluation and using contemporary sources, this beloved classic is ready for the next generation of researchers." - Verlag

Content: Fast 2000 Worte sind für würdig befunden worden, einmal zu Volkes Stimme gehört zu haben - von den Auswüchsen offizieller SED-Terminologie, den (zumal für Westler) kleinen Kuriosa bis zu ("vor allem" - so im Vorwort) einem "unerwünscht kritischen Alltagswortschatz". Kritisches ist allerdings ("vor allem"!) im Buch kaum wahrzunehmen, wie auch selten "Witze" (im Vorwort versprochen). Dafür legt Wolf eine grundsolide linguistische Arbeit vor, in der den ausgesuchten Worten meist eine - äußerst akkurate - "Mischung von Definition, Kommentar, Textbeispiel, Zitaten" zugeordnet wird, oft mit mehr Text als es bei regulären Wörterbüchern üblich ist. Der Band tendiert zum DDR-Lexikon und ist auch als solches zu verwenden. Wer sich - zumal aus dem Westen oder aus der heranwachsenden Generation - mit Texten aus der und über die DDR beschäftigt, besitzt mit diesem Buch ein leicht handhabbares Hilfsmittel, das so nebenbei auch tatsächlich - wie erwünscht - Verständnis und Toleranz für das manchem manchmal reichlich exotisch scheinende sprachlich andere Deutschland vertiefen mag. Schon für Schulbibliotheken. (2 S) (Gert Kreusel)

Content: One of the foremost challenges for contemporary Europe is the integration of new immigrants and their children. The second generation constitutes a rapidly growing and highly visible group of metropolitan youth that faces the dilemma of navigating their ethnic identities in a world that puts a premium on assimilation. This volume examines the lives of the second generation in fifteen European cities, from their educational background to their professional lives to their own cultural and religious identities. This book is both theoretically and empirically important, as no other work has been able to compare these second-generation groups along key indices of integration in so many European countries.
