A reflection on family roots in England, Germany and the first years of growing up in southern Africa during the troubled 1970s' in Rhodesia. Followed by a challenging new beginning in Europe, learning to overcome insecurity and finding strength and identity with subculture music and underground scenes. I experienced Skinhead life in the mid-late 1980s, started creating own fanzines, explored friendships and failures, fought on the streets and danced through the nights at countless concerts of Psychobilly, Heavy Metal, New Wave, Skinhead, Punk and Ska acts. 'Give me Some Kick!' is a...

Quantum dots are nano-sized particles of semiconducting material, typically chalcogenides or phosphides of metals found across groups II to VI of the periodic table. Their small size causes them to exhibit unique optical and electrical properties which are now finding applications in electronics, optics and in the biological sciences.

Synthesis of these materials began in the late 1980 s and this book gives a thorough background to the topic, referencing these early discoveries. Any rapidly-expanding field will contain vast amounts of publications, and this book presents a complete...

hen such an issue with deep and powerful cultural resonance as firearms is given the full attention of the nation, the challenges involved with confronting the complex interconnectedness of law, public safety, Constitutional rights, policy, technology, market forces, and other concerns seem only amplified. With careful consideration, however, untangling the various components of the issue is possible, and an investigation of technology can be accomplished with minimal diversion into the other realms.

Mumford-Tate groups are the fundamental symmetry groups of Hodge theory, a subject which rests at the center of contemporary complex algebraic geometry. This book is the first comprehensive exploration of Mumford-Tate groups and domains. Containing basic theory and a wealth of new views and results, it will become an essential resource for graduate students and researchers.

Although Mumford-Tate groups can be defined for general structures, their theory and use to date has mainly been in the classical case of abelian varieties. While the book does examine this area, it focuses...

These are the most powerful private citizens in America: the Washington lawyers whose impact is hidden and made effective in the halls of Congress and the hearing rooms of the regulatory agencies. Drawing on his training as a lawyer, Mark Green describes the tactics that influential law firms use to represent big business against the interests of consumer health and safety. Through anecdote and analysis, we see the tactics used, the associations made, the positions Washington s lawyers take to implement, and rationalize, their work. Newsworthy, tough-minded, enormously readable, this is a...

In recent years, considerable progress has been made in studying algebraic cycles using infinitesimal methods. These methods have usually been applied to Hodge-theoretic constructions such as the cycle class and the Abel-Jacobi map. Substantial advances have also occurred in the infinitesimal theory for subvarieties of a given smooth variety, centered around the normal bundle and the obstructions coming from the normal bundle's first cohomology group. Here, Mark Green and Phillip Griffiths set forth the initial stages of an infinitesimal theory for algebraic cycles.

Grey Faction, the world's most elite fighting force, is used by governments around the world as a last resort against serial killers, terrorist groups, and people with magic/superhuman abilities. However they are about to face their toughest challenge yet, and even though the leaders of Grey Faction have spent five years dealing with countless deadly opponents, through combat and assassination, the small group will be hard pressed to survive what is to come. The Magistas Syndicate have commissioned the scientist Siegfried to mass produce Seraphim flame clones to eliminate Grey Faction,...
