As experimental organisms, spiders offer ecologists a unique opportunity to examine the concept of the ecological community and the role which field experimentation can play in evaluating theories of population and community ecology. In this book, David Wise provides a balanced critique of field experiments designed to uncover details of spider ecology, with the dual aim of clarifying the ecology of these fascinating organisms and providing insight into the advantages and challenges of performing field experiments with a predator ubiquitous in terrestrial ecosystems. This book will be an essential reference for all ecologists wishing to learn more about the ecology of a major terrestrial predator and the use of field experimentation as a powerful technique to test ecological hypotheses.

This is a self-contained, modern treatment of the algebraic theory of machines. Dr Holcombe examines various applications of the idea of a machine in biology, biochemistry and computer science and gives also a rigorous treatment of the way in which these machines can be decomposed and simulated by simpler ones. This treatment is based on fundamental ideas from modern algebra. Motivation for many of the newer results is provided by way of applications so this account should be accessible and valuable for those studying applied algebra or theoretical computer science at advanced undergraduate or beginning postgraduate level, as well as for those undertaking research in those areas.

First published in 1948, as the second edition of a 1939 original, this textbook was aimed at undergraduates and discusses magnetism from an experimental standpoint rather than from a strictly theoretical one, allowing for more prominence in the description of fundamental experiments and the industrial applications of magnetic materials. Bates explains, 'it is no exaggeration to state that some of the most important experiments whose results have been used very many times in theoretical discussions have not been adequately described in English'. A variety of topics are covered, including susceptibility measurements with isotropic substances, the magnetic properties of crystals and radiofrequency spectroscopy. Multiple diagrams are included for reference. This book presents an account of magnetic theory and reassesses and redefines magnetism's relationship with the experimental side of physics and will be of value to scholars of physics as well as to anyone with an interest in the histo
