This book is a monograph on unitals embedded in finite projective planes. Unitals are key structures in projective planes, and have connections with other structures in algebra. They play a significa
This book offers an introduction into projective geometry. The first part presents n-dimensional projective geometry over an arbitrary skew field; the real, the complex, and the quaternionic geometrie
In Euclidean geometry, constructions are made with ruler and compass. Projective geometry is simpler: its constructions require only a ruler. In projective geometry one never measures anything, instea
The introvert is a personality type that draws energy from the outside inward. According to standard personality testing assessments, most people are introverts and no group is more introverted than t
With his penetrating theory of personality and his nuanced understanding of the psychotherapeutic relationship, David Shapiro has influenced clinicians across the theoretical spectrum since the public
The Five-Factor Model Across Cultures was designed to further an understanding of the interrelations between personality and culture by examining the dominant paradigm for personality assessment - the
This volume describes the development and application of the Mmogo-method® as a projective visual data gathering method, in different contexts and with different groups of people. The Mmogo-Method® is
Providing an introduction to some classical and recent results and techniques in projective algebraic geometry, this monograph treats the geometrical properties of varieties embedded in
The Autumn 2011 (vol. 13 no. 3) issue of the Nexus Network Journal features nine papers guest edited by Jose Calvo-Lopez dedicated to the theme “From Mediaeval Stonecutting to Projective Geometry ”. T
The central theme running through this volume on New Technologies for Toxicity Testing is the development and application of advanced techniques for cell and tissue culture, as well as new markers and
This introduction to projective geometry can be understood by anyone familiar with high-school geometry and algebra. The restriction to real geometry of two dimensions allows every theorem to be illus
Projective geometry is one of the most fundamental and at the same time most beautiful branches of geometry. It can be considered the common foundation of many other geometric disciplines like Euclide
This book is a proceedings of the AAPS Stability Workshop. This workshop provide an understanding of the regulatory perspective of Stability Testing and position the stability program for 21st century
This monograph is concerned with counting rational points of bounded height on projective algebraic varieties. This is a relatively young topic, whose exploration has already uncovered a rich seam of
This book gives an introduction to algebraic functions and projective curves. It covers a wide range of material by dispensing with the machinery of algebraic geometry and proceeding directly via valu
The aim of this monograph is to present a survey of modern statistical techniques applied to educational and psychological testing. A theme that runs through this book is that of making inferences abo
This book focuses on characterization of organic coatings by different testing methods and understanding of structure formation and materials properties. The knowledge of protective organic coatings a
The main goal of this book is to find the constructive content hidden in abstract proofs of concrete theorems in Commutative Algebra, especially in well-known theorems concerning projective modules ov
This is a monograph that details the use of Siegel’s method and the classical results of homotopy groups of spheres and Lie groups to determine some Gottlieb groups of projective spaces or to give the
The Jacobian of a smooth projective curve is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable and beautiful objects in algebraic geometry. This work is an attempt to develop an analogous theory for smooth proje
The arrival of the computer in educational and psychological testing has boosted the popularity of adaptive testing. This book covers key features of adaptive testing and shows how these features are
The arrival of the computer in educational and psychological testing has led to the current popularity of adaptive testing---a testing format in which the computer uses statistical information about t
