The field of low-dimensional conductors has been very active for more than twenty years. It has grown continuously and both the inorganic and organic materials have remark able properties, such as charge and spin density waves and superconductivity. The discovery of superconductivity at high temperature in copper-based quasi two-dimensional conducting oxides nearly ten years ago has further enlarged the field and stimulated new research on inorganic conductors. It was obviously impossible to cover such a broad field in a ten day Institute and it seemed pertinent to concentrate on inorganic...

Papers from the April 1994 symposium present current research in physiological and pathological processes involved in short-distance chemical signalling within the mammary gland, and address subjects including the intramammary and the autocrine control of milk secretion in women and animals, genes i

Chapters originating as plenary lectures at the July 1992 symposium provide a bridge between experimental databases (information) on the one hand and theoretical concepts (biological and genetic knowledge) on the other. Among the topics: informatics and experiments for the Human Genome Project; the

Proceedings of the Thirteenth Washington International Spring Symposium at The George Washington University, held in May 1993 to help formulate a more comprehensive and integrated picture of events driving and being driven by the cell cycle, as well as to evaluate the possibilities for clinical appl

The author has written an easily accessible summary of neuropsychological tests, neuropsychiatric disorders, and the relationships of test performance to disorder and treatment strategy. This ready reference provides neuropsychologists with an understanding of the medical context within which neuropsychological evaluation and psychosocial therapy takes place.

The inaugural volume in a series presenting in-depth reviews of the biology, immunology, pathology, and molecular features of this viral family. Volume one contains contributed chapters that detail: the general nature and theories of the origin of the Retroviridae; the evolutionary potential of comp

Handbook of Effective Psydwtherapy is the culmination of 15 years of personal interest in the area of psychotherapy outcome research. In my view, this is one of the most interesting and crucial areas in the field: it has relevance across disparate clinical disciplines and orientations; it provides a measure of how far the field has progressed in its efforts to improve the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic inter vention; and it provides an ongoing measure of how readily clinicians adapt to scientific indications in state-of-the-art care. Regrettably, as several of the chapters in this volume...

Deals with such topics as the mechanism of induction of immunity, the role of antigen-presenting cells and mediators, a variety of approaches to immunological adjuvants, and experimental and clinical applications of new vaccines. A good half of the contributors to the 15 papers are from Wyeth Ayerst

Proceedings of the University of Miami Workshop on Electronic Structure and Mechanisms of High-Temperature Superconductivity, held January 1991, in Coral Gables, Florida. Experimental work in this volume includes reports of photoemission spectra, positron annihilation, the de Haas-van Alphen effect,
