Product Description

New in paperback! Maher introduces the basic elements required for an archival program to meet the documentary needs of a college or university. Both archivists and their administrative superiors can obtain a thorough understanding of archival work and its importance to their institution. Beginning archivists, experienced academic archivists, archivists outside academe, and related professionals will all benefit from this book, which assesses the current status and conditions of academic archives, articulates the basic principles that should determine the operating goals for academic archives, and synthesizes external professional standards and techniques with a systematic overview of what is practical for academic archivists. Cloth version previously published in 1992.

The Management of College and University Archives Review

Maher's book was a classic from the moment it was released. As an archivist in a theological school library, this guide has been indispensible to me. The book covers a variety of subjects: description, arrangement, records management, electronic records, student workers, etc. Maher's discussions are never too technical, yet they avoid being over simplistic. His discussion of classification guides and provenance should be read by all academic archivists.

Product Description

This book reports findings of a three-nation study of public relations and communication management sponsored by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Research Foundation. The Excellence Study provides communication managers and public relations practitioners with information critical to their own professional growth, and supplies organizations with tools that help them communicate more effectively and build beneficial relations with key publics. Communication excellence is a powerful idea of sweeping scope that applies to all organizations -- large or small -- that need to communicate effectively with publics on whom the organization's survival and growth depend. The essential elements of excellent communication are the same for corporations, not-for-profit organizations, government agencies, and professional/trade associations. And they are applicable on a global basis.

The study identifies three spheres of communication excellence. These spheres consider the overall function and role of communication in organizations, and define the organization of this book. They are:
* the core or inner sphere of communication excellence -- the knowledge base of the communication department,
* the shared expectations of top communicators and senior managers about the function and role of communication, and
* the organization's culture -- the larger context that either nurtures or impedes communication excellence.

This text also examines communication excellence as demonstrated in specific programs developed for specific publics.

Product Description

These notes were developed from a course taught at Rice University in the spring of 1976 and again at the University of Hawaii in the spring of 1977. It is assumed that the students know some linear algebra and a little about differentiation of vector-valued functions. The idea is to introduce some students to some of the concepts of Lie group theory --all done at the concrete level of matrix groups.

Matrix Groups (Universitext) Review

Now hold on just a minute. A couple of things just out front: the material this book covers as concisely in one volume is not to be found elsewhere (as of December 2001). So that by itself is one of its strongest features. As for the typeset, yes it is not in a fancy TeX format with pretty commutative diagrams that most of us are used to in this day. It was not uncommon in the late seventies to have lecture notes or conference proceedings of deep importance (and the material here is) rushed to the publisher, and in the haste not too much effort being spent on the presentation. Perhaps that's off-putting to some people: particularly undergraduates or new graduate students who've not met this material before. However, if you're familiar with basic properties of Lie groups, differential geometry and some basic topology then Matrix Groups will be a pleasure to read. As for the more than occaisional errors in the original edition, this second edition is very well corrected, and has an additional chapter on root systems. Honestly, this really is a remarkable book, particularly in its uniqueness as a short and beautiful introduction to GL(n,K) and its Lie subgroups: amalgamating in with them aspects of topology (compactness, connectedness), differential geometry (tangent spaces...etc) and beyond. So if you're looking for nice TeX presentation (gothic notation and the like): you might find it difficult to enjoy the material in this volume. But is that doesn't bother you, I recommend it very strongly.

Product Description

The primary goal of this text is to present the theoretical foundation of the field of Fourier analysis. This book is mainly addressed to graduate students in mathematics and is designed to serve for a three-course sequence on the subject. The only prerequisite for understanding the text is satisfactory completion of a course in measure theory, Lebesgue integration, and complex variables. This book is intended to present the selected topics in some depth and stimulate further study. Although the emphasis falls on real variable methods in Euclidean spaces, a chapter is devoted to the fundamentals of analysis on the torus. This material is included for historical reasons, as the genesis of Fourier analysis can be found in trigonometric expansions of periodic functions in several variables.While the 1st edition was published as a single volume, the new edition will contain 120 pp of new material, with an additional chapter on time-frequency analysis and other modern topics. As a result, the book is now being published in 2 separate volumes, the first volume containing the classical topics (Lp Spaces, Littlewood-Paley Theory, Smoothness, etc...), the second volume containing the modern topics (weighted inequalities, wavelets, atomic decomposition, etc...).From a review of the first edition: ��Grafakos� �s book is very user-friendly with numerous examples illustrating the definitions and ideas. It is more suitable for readers who want to get a feel for current research. The treatment is thoroughly modern with free use of operators and functional analysis. Moreover, unlike many authors, Grafakos has clearly spent a great deal of time preparing the exercises.� - Ken Ross, MAA Online

Modern Fourier Analysis: Preliminary Entry 250 (Graduate Texts in Mathematics) Review

this is the volume 2 of Grafakos' books. it contains much more advanced topics than volume 1. I like the way Grafakos arranges different topics, and the exercises are especially good for study.
