These ideas are similar to those used to describe the behaviour of Lagrangian mechanical systems, and as such this book appeals to anyone wanting to gain an understanding of the intrinsic unity of natural phenomena.PhysicsStudy and teachingMathematicsSocial sciencesSociologyMethodologyEducation in PhysicsMathematicsMathematics in the Humanities and Social SciencesSociological MethodsPhysicsStudy and teaching.Mathematics.Social sciences.SociologyMethodology.Education in Physics.Mathematics.Mathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences.Sociological Methods.301.10151dell'Isola Francescoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut838716BOOK9910350223903321Big-(Wo)men, Tyrants, Chiefs, Dictators, Emperors and Presidents1873300UNINA
