On becoming familiar with difference equations and their close re- lation to differential equations, I was in hopes that the theory of difference equations could be brought completely abreast with that for ordinary differential equations. HUGH L. TURRITTIN, My Mathematical Expectations, Springer Lecture Notes 312 (page 10), 1973] A major task of mathematics today is to harmonize the continuous and the discrete, to include them in one comprehensive mathematics, and to eliminate obscurity from both. E. T. BELL, Men of Mathematics, Simon and Schuster, New York (page 13/14), 1937] The theory of...

Poetry. "Allan Peterson, in PRECARIOUS, his fifth full-length collection of poems, refuses the easy path of a consoling clarity, opting instead for a difficulty that more accurately reveals the blurred perspective of one human being's singular fixity from his place in Nature.
