From the reviews:“The well-written style of the text in conjunction with many examples should make the book understandable at the undergraduate level. … the book covers a broad array of topics at the intersection of demography and epidemiology. … Students who might be unfamiliar with some technical terms will welcome the large glossary provided at the end of book. … an indispensable resource for students and professionals in the field of demography. It will be on my shelf for demographic reference works.” (Roland Rau, European Journal of Population, Vol. 29 (3), 2013)“It will be of particular value to applied researchers and to those working in a policy setting. … a valuable resource for instructors, students, and researchers. In sum, its strengths include clear writing, accessibility, a practical focus, many illustrative examples, and the fact that chapters provide a good overview of their subject matter … giving useful detail also. … The book can be recommended for libraries that cover demography, epidemiology, social medicine, public health, or gerontology.” (Maire Ni Bhrolchain, Population Studies, Vol. 67 (2), 2013)“This comprehensive introduction to and overview of health demography and the epidemiology of aging is authored by an established expert in this field who does an excellent job of covering a broad range of topics. … It easily could serve as a textbook for a two-semester course, and as an excellent reference for practicing health demographers and epidemiologists. … This one is very useful and readable, and I expect to use it as a reference for years to come.” (Ryan M. Carnahan, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2012)

“The essays in this intriguing and timely volume present a broad overview of contemporary theorizing and empirical work regarding meaning and purpose in life from two distinct intellectual perspectives: positive psychology and existential psychology. … Taken as a whole, this welcome work offers much that is of tangible benefit to the psychological theorist, researcher, and clinical practitioner, particularly those interested in broadening their conceptual and practical horizons in unexpected directions.” (Edwin E. Gantt, Journal of Theoretical and Philosophical Psychology, Vol. 36 (1), 2016)"In this context, Meaning in Positive and Existential Psychology is valuable not only in content, but also a model for bringing together in dialogue and collaboration two schools of psychology that have a history of conflict. The contributors to this volume do not idealistically look to unify existential and positive psychology by oversimplifying or dodging the differences and debates; rather, they take seriously and honor differences in a constructive manner. The primary emphasis of the text is on what these two schools can learn from each other and how they can work together. Some chapters accomplish this better than others, as would be expected in a book with 21 chapters and over 400 pages. Yet, the overall tone of the book is one of collaboration and respect...Meaning in Positive and Existential Psychology will help bridge the divide and promote a more collaborative relationship. If the book does nothing more than accomplish this, it would be an extremely important contribution. However, the book has much more to offer. This volume is an important contribution and important read for anyone interested in existential psychology, positive psychology, and/or the study and application of meaning."Louis HoffmanPsycCRITIQUES, December 22, 2014, Vol. 59, No. 51, Article 8

From the reviews:"Amateur astronomer Harshaw (Stardeck Observatory, MO) compiled this recent entry in the ‘Practical Astronomy’ series. …The CD-ROM is well organized; it includes bank observing forms and images of more than 10,000 double stars, more than 1,400 galaxies, and other objects reachable by an amateur-size telescope. … Charts are of excellent quality. … Summing Up: Recommended. General readers." (M. –K. Hemenway, CHOICE, Vol. v4 (3), November, 2007)"The printed part of the book contains clear and simple explanations of some of the basics of amateur astronomical observing … .  The heart of the work is the CD-ROM with finding charts and the listing of the 13,238 objects. …Overall, for those amateurs in the northern hemisphere of a taxonomic bent this CD atlas would be of great assistance." (Nick Lomb, Australian Physics, Vol. 44 (4), 2007)"Patrick Moore in his book, ‘Atlas of the Universe’ brings many of the wonders of this space … . The universe is big but this book makes it all very manageable. … the book is a veritable treasure of information and pictures suitable for the young and uninitiated who want to learn more of the universe in which Earth travels. … With copious pictures and well rounded phrases, anyone can use this book to help them travel off-planet to wherever their eyes lead them."

From the book reviews:“Goldin et al.’s multidisciplinary and erudite view on the Hán Fēizĭ is ultimately of twofold benefit. Firstly, it will please the specialist owing to the array of groundbreaking scholarship and, secondly, it will furnish a solid understanding of crucial issues in the study of Hán Fēi and legalism in general for those new to the subject, thus fulfilling what one would expect from an actual companion.” (Lukas Pokorny, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 40 (3), September, 2014)“Dao Companion to the Philosophy of Han Fei, the book under review, is a milestone on the way to advancing the academic standing of this often misunderstood philosopher. Serving as an introduction or overview of Han Fei’s philosophy as well as an assessment of specific ideas and issues within Legalist thought and its relationship to Confucianism, this is a much needed book, a collection of essays, a true ‘companion.’” (Henrique Schneider, Dao, Vol. 13, 2014)

From the reviews:“The volume offers contribution to the scientific, historical and socio-economic background of Bronzin’s work, as well as papers covering the history of derivative markets and option pricing. … The present book demonstrates that Bronzin’s treatise should be numbered among them. Because of this and due to including the additional chapters representing original contributions, the book can be recommended as particularly relevant for those interested in the history of option pricing and hedging.” (Ryszard Doman, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1184, 2010)

From the reviews:"Pace’s Mathematics of Discrete Structures for Computer Science is a delightful book, written to be read and enjoyed as it moves from justifying the central place of maths in computing, through the usual set theory and logic, on to numbers, types and the halting problem." [Harold Thimbleby, Times Higher Education Supplement, 06/13]“Discrete mathematics is as essential for computer science as calculus is for physics. … this book by Pace (Univ. of Malta) focuses on topics which are central to computer science, including the formal definition of data types and the use of induction to prove correctness. … is most useful for future courses in programming languages, particularly those that use a language like Haskell. The book includes many helpful worked examples. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty.” [P. Cull, Choice, Vol. 50 (8), April, 2013]“There is no doubt that discrete mathematics is a mandatory component of any good computer science program. Therefore, a textbook for this area is always very useful. … this book particularly emphasizes the difference between the algorithmic and the descriptive approach. … topics are well presented and can be used immediately for teaching such a course. It is also very helpful that many exercises are included into the text and support the learning process.” [Christian Posthoff, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1254, 2013]“The overwhelming majority of the subjects is discussed from an algorithmic viewpoint, considering how we could use this or that result while writing code for a computer. … you want to teach a course focusing on how to use discrete structures in computer science, then the book is a concise, low-cost alternative to textbooks in discrete mathematics.” (Miklós Bóna, MAA Reviews, December, 2012)“The standard topics--including propositional logic, predicate calculus, sets, relations, discrete structures, defining new structured types, numbers, and reasoning about programs--are covered … . As such, the book is suitable for students who understand algebra and can program. … Teachers who use this text have noted how enthusiastically their students discuss its ideas in class. … Overall, the book is well made.” [Richard Botting, ACM Computing Reviews, December, 2012]"Profound knowledge and skills in discrete mathematics are mandatory for a well educated computer scientist. Therefore a corresponding curriculum typically requires at least a basic course on this subject. This textbook, which is based on the lectures given by the author at the University of Malta, is a perfect companion for every student taking such a course. ... Besides a thorough formal presentation the book always gives a convincing motivation for studying the corresponding structures and explains the main ideas using illustrations. A well chosen set of exercises rounds off each topic. After studying the presented material a computer science student will be well prepared for further, more specialized courses."
