A First Course in the Design of Experiments: A Linear Models Approach presents theory and methods, emphasizes both design selection and the analysis of data, and integrates the analysis for the various designs with the general theory for linear models. The authors introduce the subject, then cover the theoretical results, the various design models, and the analytical concepts that provide the techniques that enable them to analyze virtually any design. Rife with examples and exercises, the text also encourages using computers to analyze data. The authors use the SAS software package throughout the book, but also demonstrate how any regression program can be used.

Written by an eminent author, Pulsars as Astrophysical Laboratories for Nuclear and Particle Physics discusses how pulsars are ideal probes for various physical studies, focusing on the interface between nuclear physics, particle physics, and Einstein's theory of relativity. It presents a reliable account of the progress in observational radio and x-ray astronomy. The book covers Hartree-Fock self-energies, partial-wave expansion, stars, and more "exotic" processes, including the formation of absolutely stable strange quark matter-a configuration of matter even more stable than the most stable atomic nucleus.

This volume offers a thorough compilation of the wavelengths of lasers in all media. Organized by type-solid, liquid, and gas-and listed in order of increasing wavelength, brief descriptions of each type of laser are presented, followed by tables listing the laser wavelength, lasing element or medium, host, transition, and primary literature citations. A special section on commercial lasers is an added featured. Handbook of Laser Wavelengths is an essential, authoritative reference for scientists and engineers searching for laser sources for specific applications and a valuable survey of the developments that have occurred since the advent of the laser.

Entre los años 1903 y 1920 Max Weber centró sus investigaciones en el estudio de la religión. Le movían dos tipos de razones. Por una parte, intentaba establecer la influencia recíproca de la religión sobre la sociedad, y de esta sobre la religión. La segunda preocupación a la que Weber trataba de atender era establecer las raíces de la peculiaridad occidental. A raíz de esto, Weber llevó a cabo un gigantesco estudio comparativo de historia de las religiones. Su muerte le impidió culminar el proyecto, y una buena parte de su obra quedó en forma de esbozo, publicado por su viuda. La presente edición sigue los criterios editoriales propuestos por el profesor Wolfgang Schluchter. Se trata de editar conjuntamente la Sociología de la religión -hasta ahora publicada como un capítulo de Economía y Sociedad- y los capítulos teóricos de los Ensayos sobre sociología de la religión. Esto permitirá apreciar mejor el sentido del proyecto de Weber.
