Sign-Changing Critical Point Theory by Wenming Zou English | PDF | 2008 | 288 Pages | ISBN : 038776657X | 2.4 MB Many nonlinear problems in physics, engineering, biology, and social sciences can be reduced to finding critical points of functionals. While minimax and Morse theories provide answers to many situations and problems on the existence of multiple critical points of a functional, they often cannot provide much-needed additional properties of these critical points. Sign-changing critical point theory has emerged as a new area of rich research on critical points of a differentiable functional with important applications to nonlinear elliptic PDEs. Lucy Cane, "Sheldon Wolin and Democracy" English | ISBN: 0367194163 | 2020 | 230 pages | PDF | 3 MB Lucy Cane presents the first full-length study of Sheldon Wolin (1922-2015), an influential theorist of democracy and prescient critic of "inverted totalitarianism" in the United States.

Mary Giraudo Beck, "Shamans and Kushtakas: North Coast Tales of the Supernatural" English | 2003 | ISBN: 0882404067, 0882409662 | EPUB | pages: 129 | 0.7 mb Shaman and Kushtaka, both struck terror in the hearts of the Tlingit and Haida, for both possessed frightening supernatural powers. Among the Natives of the Pacific Northwest Coast, the shaman was honored as a person who could heal the body and spirit as well as see into the future. In his struggles to protect his people, he fought the kushtaka―an evil spirit-being who was half human and half land hotter―for the souls of dying persons. Theirs was a battle between the forces of good and evil, and today it remains a cornerstone in Tlingit and Haida mythology. Mary Giraudo Beck provides a powerful mix of history, legend, and adventure to dramatize the values and traditions of Tlingit and Haida societies. The heroic and wondrous incidents in these stories transcend time and culture and, as tales of myth and magic, provide compelling reading for young and old alike.
Separation of Powers and Legislative Organization: The President, the Senate, and Political Parties in the Making of House Rules By Gisela Sin 2014 | 208 Pages | ISBN: 1107048796 | PDF | 3 MB This book examines how the constitutional requirements of the lawmaking process, combined with the factional divisions within parties, affect U.S. representatives' decisions about how to distribute power among themselves. The incorporation of the presidential, senatorial, and House factions in the analysis of House rule making marks an important departure from previous theories, which analyze the House as an institution that makes laws in isolation. This book argues that, by constitutional design, the success of the House in passing legislation is highly contingent on the actions of the Senate and the president; and therefore, also by constitutional design, House members must anticipate such actions when they design their rules. An examination of major rule changes from 1879 to 2013 finds that changes in the preferences of constitutional actors outside the House, as well as the political alignment of these political actors vis-...-vis House factions, are crucial for predicting the timing and directionality of rule changes.
