Note generali

"On p. 24-43 ("Some grounds of the war against the Pequots", and "A brief history of the war with the Pequot Indians in New-England; anno 1637") Mather printed a manuscript sent to him by John Allyn of Hartford who is accredited with the authorship of it. It was, however, John Mason's narrative, which was first separately edited and published by Thomas Prince in 1736 as "A brief history of the Pequot War". Mather made use of another manuscript history of that war, found in the library of Rev. Mr. Davenport, but not now identified.--NUC pre-1956 imprints.

Sommario/riassunto

Here is an accurate and readable translation of a seminal article by Henri Poincaré that is a classic in the study of dynamical systems popularly called chaos theory. In an effort to understand the stability of orbits in the solar system, Poincaré applied a Hamiltonian formulation



to the equations of planetary motion and studied these differential equations in the limited case of three bodies to arrive at properties of the equations’ solutions, such as orbital resonances and horseshoe orbits.  Poincaré wrote for professional mathematicians and astronomers interested in celestial mechanics and differential equations. Contemporary historians of math or science and researchers in dynamical systems and planetary motion with an interest in the origin or history of their field will find his work fascinating. .

Sommario/riassunto

The Psychotic: Aspects of the Personality presents the results of Dr David Rosenfeld's many years of experience as an analyst working with deeply disturbed or psychotic patients, and demonstrates how the deeply resulting clinical and theoretical formulations may additionally be applied to less disturbed patients.
