Climbing Mount Laurel

Climbing Mount Laurel

Douglas S. Massey; Len Albright; Rebecca Casciano; Elizabeth Derickson; David N. Kinsey

Princeton University Press
2019

A close look at the aftereffects of the Mount Laurel affordable housing decisionUnder the New Jersey State Constitution as interpreted by the State Supreme Court in 1975 and 1983, municipalities are required to use their zoning authority to create realistic opportunities for a fair share of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households. Mount Laurel was the town at the center of the court decisions. As a result, Mount Laurel has become synonymous with the debate over affordable housing policy designed to create economically integrated communities. What was the impact of the Mount Laurel decision on those most affected by it? What does the case tell us about economic inequality?Climbing Mount Laurel undertakes a systematic evaluation of the Ethel Lawrence Homes—a housing development produced as a result of the Mount Laurel decision. Douglas Massey and his colleagues assess the consequences for the surrounding neighborhoods and their inhabitants, the township of Mount Laurel, and the residents of the Ethel Lawrence Homes. Their analysis reveals what social scientists call neighborhood effects—the notion that neighborhoods can shape the life trajectories of their inhabitants. Climbing Mount Laurel proves that the building of affordable housing projects is an efficacious, cost-effective approach to integration and improving the lives of the poor, with reasonable cost and no drawbacks for the community at large.

Handbook of Nonlinear Optical Crystals

Handbook of Nonlinear Optical Crystals

Valentin G. Dmitriev; Gagik G. Gurzadyan; David N. Nikogosyan

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1999
sidottu
Since the invention of the first laser 30 years ago, the frequency conversion of laser radiation in nonlinear optical crystals has become an important technique widely used in quantum electronics and laser physics for solving various scientific and engineering problems. The fundamental physics of three-wave light interactions in nonlinear optical crystals is now well understood. This has enabled the production of various harmonic generators, sum-and difference­ frequency generators, and optical parametric oscillators based on nonlinear optical crystals that are now commercially available. At the same time, scientists continue an active search for novel, highly efficient nonlinear optical materials. Therefore, in our opinion, there is a great need for a handbook of nonlinear optical crystals, intended for specialists and practitioners with an engineering background. This book contains a complete description of the properties and applications of all nonliner optical crystals of practicalimportance reported in the literature up to the beginning of 1990. In addition, it contains the most important equations for calculating the main parameters (such as phase-matching direction, effective nonlinearity, and conversion efficiency) of nonlinear frequency converters.

Processbaserad terapi : färdighetsträning för kliniker

Processbaserad terapi : färdighetsträning för kliniker

Stefan G. Hofmann; Steven C. Hayes; David N. Lorscheid

Natur Kultur Läromedel och Akademi
2023
sidottu
Processbaserad terapi ger ett nytt ramverk till psykoterapi. Fokus ligger på vilka specifika processer som driver patientens problem – oavsett diagnos.I den här boken beskrivs för första gången hur du som kliniker kan arbeta processbaserat. Du får konkreta verktyg för att kartlägga patienters problematik och genomföra individanpassade terapier, där fallexempel och reflektionsfrågor ger värdefull fördjupning.Boken riktar sig till kliniker med kompetens inom kognitiv beteendeterapi och den passar även som kurslitteratur på grundläggande psykoterapiutbildningar. Översättningen är fackgranskad av psykologerna Cecilia Engblom Rosengren och Torun Jansson Kallings.Stefan G. Hofmann och Steven C. Hayes är grundarna av processbaserad terapi.Sagt om boken”Processbaserad terapi är generös med förtydligande exempel från klientarbete och även fördjupande frågor för läsaren att reflektera kring. Detta är en mycket bra lärobok om processbaserad terapi som håller en hög akademisk nivå både i språk och kvalitet.”Therese Nordholm, BTJ-häftet nr 22, 2023

Linear System Theory

Linear System Theory

David J N Limebeer; Lotfi Zadeh

Dover Publications Inc.
2008
nidottu
The state space approach is widely used in systems ranging from industrial robots to space guidance control. This landmark in the technique's development and applications was written by two pioneers in the field, Lotfi A. Zadeh and Charles A. Desoer, who teach in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley.Starting with a self-contained introduction to system theory, the authors explain basic concepts, presenting each idea within a carefully integrated framework of numerous illustrative examples. Most of the text concerns the application of the state space approach to systems described by differential equations. Problems of stability and controllability receive particular attention, and connections between the state space approach and classical techniques are highlighted. The properties of transfer functions are covered in separate chapters. Extensive appendixes feature complete and self-contained expositions of delta-functions and distributions, the Laplace and Fourier transform theory, the theory of infinite dimensional linear vector spaces, and functions of a matrix.

Curing Exceptionalism

Curing Exceptionalism

U.S. exceptionalism, the idea that the United States of America is superior to other nations, is no more fact-based and no less harmful than racism, sexism, and other forms of bigotry.The purpose of this book is to persuade you of that statement.This book examines how the United States actually compares with other countries, how people think about the comparison, what damage that thinking does, and what changes we might want to consider making."I hope Curing Exceptionalism will be part of coursework in classrooms throughout the U.S." --Kathy Kelly, co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence."A must-read for every U.S. citizen." --Robert Fantina, author of Desertion and the American Soldier 1776-2006.Table of Contents: Introduction 6 I. How the United States Compares with Other Countries 8 II. Exceptionalist Thinking 62 III. The Damage Exceptionalism Does 122 IV.

20 Dictators Currently Supported by the U.S.

20 Dictators Currently Supported by the U.S.

David C N Swanson

David Swanson
2020
pokkari
The U.S. government has a habit of supporting brutal (and comically outrageous) dictators. This book offers 20 current examples, together with some background on historical patterns, some explanation for why this happens, and a proposal to put an end to it.As documented here, the U.S. government arms, trains, and funds all variety of oppressive governments, not just dictatorships. The choice to focus on dictatorships in this book was not made merely to shorten the list. Rather, that choice was made because the U.S. government so often claims to be opposing dictators through the promotion of democracy. Frequently, the atrocious conduct of a dictator is a central selling point for a new war or coup or program of sanctions.Yet neither Saddam Hussein's horrific (though fictional) removal of babies from incubators nor Manuel Noriega's cavorting in red underwear with prostitutes while snorting cocaine and praying to voodoo gods (as the New York Times solemnly informed us on December 26, 1989) rivals the moral horror or the glorious goofiness of the 20 tyrants described in this book.No one will be able to read this and believe that a primary purpose of U.S. foreign policy is to oppose dictatorships or to promote democracy. If it is important to you to try to believe that, you've probably already stopped reading.
