Mesoscopic Physics of Complex Materials (Graduate Texts in Contemporary Physics) (for Kindle)
This book is intended to provide a cross-disciplinary study of the physical properties of complex fluids, solids, and interfaces as a function of their mesoscopic structures, with empasis on nonequilibrium phenomena. The treatment shows the underlying connections between topics as diverse as critical phenomena in colloidal dynamics, glassy state relaxation and deformation, reinforced polymer composites, [...]

The Anthropology of Texts, Persons and Publics (for Kindle)
Review “The brilliance of Karin Barber’s book unfolds in her analyses of oral and written texts – praise poetry, epic poems, songs, novels, letters, and unpublished journals – from a wide range of African cultures and historical periods. As we follow Barber’s linguistically, culturally, and historically grounded analyses of specific texts, we gain layers of [...]
Physics of Societal Issues: Calculations on National Security, Environment, and Energy (Undergraduate Texts in Contemporary Physics) (for Kindle)
Review”Energy policy must be quantitative. People who don’t calculate economic trade-offs often champion simplistic hardware. The solution is more nuclear power, or electric cars, or photovoltaics, etc. Some simple physics will show that the true solution matches supply and demand as an integrated resource plan. Physics of Societal Issues is a good place to begin [...]
