The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Western literary study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope, Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others.

In this comprehensive picture of Belgian colonialism in the Congo, Lewis Gann and Peter Duignan trace the formation of the colonial state that became Zaire, considering it in the light of colonial experience in other African territories. Whereas most studies have focused on the conquest and subjugation of the African population, this study probes the colonial apparatus itself, investigating the attitudes and behavior of the civil servants and soldiers who built the empire.

Excerpt from Mehl's Numismatic Monthly, Vol. 1: December 1908 Greek coins in due time found their way into western Gaul, and there were copied by the Gallican ar tists. Some coins represent a Gre eian horse as conceived by the artists of Greece, while others set forth a Gallic copy of the same horse. To see the copy is to laugh. How well it sets forth the fact that before we try to do anything we must have a clarified vision, so that we may see exactly what we should reproduce.

Excerpt from Mehl's Numismatic Monthly, Vol. 1: March, 1908 How soon after a sale should I expect to receive coins that have fallen to my bids? When it is over two weeks before I receive them, what do you think is the reason? Have they been sent to some one else, returned to dealer as nu satisfactory, and then sent on to me.

Whereas science, technology, and medicine have all called forth dedicated philosophical investigations, a fourth major contributor to the technoscientific world in which we all live - that is, engineering - has been accorded almost none of the philosophical attention it deserves. This volume thus offers a first characterisation of this important new field, by some of the primary philosophers and ethicists interested in engineering and leading engineers interested in philosophical reflections. The volume deals with such questions as: What is engineering? In what respect does engineering differ from science? What ethical problems does engineering raise? By what ethical principles are engineers guided? How do engineers themselves conceive of their profession? What do they see as the main philosophical challenges confronting them in the 21st century? The authors respond to these and other questions from philosophical and engineering view points and so illustrate how together they can meet the challenges and realize the opportunities present in the necessary encounters between philosophy and engineering - encounters that are ever more important in an increasingly engineered world and its problematic futures.

Most writers today are more familiar with printers and modems than with typewriter ribbons. Personal computers and the Internet are changing the way writers create and communicate.

He also discusses the new worlds of electronic publishing, interactive and collaboratory writing, Net censorship, and cyberjournalism. "Getting information from the Internet can be like trying to get a glass of water off an open fire hydrant," warns Gach, but with "writers.net, writers now have a handbook to help them control the unlimited resources that make up the Internet.About the Author Veteran Internet instructor and widely published writer Gary Gach is the author of the recent bestseller "The Pocket Guide to the Internet.Join other readers of"writers.net for an unmoderated online forum.

Excerpt from Summary of "Long-Term Development of Demand and Supply for Agricultural Products in the Federal Republic of Germany" A projection of one or several economic magnitudes is always a limited forecast. It is an attempt to project under certain presupposed conditions. Therefore, these conditions should be as realistic as possible. Consequently, the results of the projection tell very little unless evaluated in connection with the basic assumptions. The main emphasis in any projection thus should be the bases for the estimates.

A. Gro8en- und Einheitensysteme Westphal, Physik, 25./26. Auf!., §§ 2, 3; ferner: Die Grundlagen des physikalismen Begriffssystems. 1. GroBen, Zahlenwerte und Einheiten Das Ergebnis jeder physikalisehen Messung ist die Angabe einer physika- /ischen Grof3e Gals Produkt aus einem Zahlenwert {G} und einer Ein- heit [G], also G = {G} [G]. Einheiten sind vereinbarte Vertreter der be- treffenden GroBenart, deren es oft mehrere gibt. Eine physikalisehe GroBe ist aber eine von der Einheitenwahl unabhangige (invariante) Gegebenheit. Geht man von einer Einheit [G] zu einer anderen Einheit [G]' iiber, so andert sich zwar der Zahlenwert von {G} in {G}', aber nieht die GroBe. Es ist G = {G} [G] = {G}' [G]'. Eine Lange bleibt die gleiehe GroBe, ganz gleieh, ob man sie als 1 = 1,500 m oder als 1 = 1500 mm besehreibt. Dem- naeh ist {G}'/{G} = [G]/[G]'. Je groBer die Einheit, um so kleiner der Zahlenwert. Unter einer Grof3enart (GroBenklasse) versteht man eine unendliche Mannig- faltigkeit gleichartiger GroBen, z. B. alIer Langen, Zeiten, Temperaturen usw. Mit Hilfe einiger weniger Basisgrof3en (Grundgrof3en) konnen aIle weiteren physikalischen GroBen ihrer Art nach als Potenzprodukte von Basisgrof3en definiert werden (abgeleitete Grof3en). Die Anzahl der fiir ein Teilsystem der Physik unerllilSlich notigen BasisgroBen lliBt sich ermitteln; ihre Auswahl steht innerhalb gewisser Grenzen frei. BasisgroBen konnen nieht definiert, sondern nur durch eine Aussage als solche eingefilhrt werden.
