The Millwright's Son

Professor Hager should be complemented for his scholarly masterpiece. This monumental compendium of single-page bio-sketches highlights past European contributions in hydraulics. These brief portraits and professional career summaries bring vibrant life to scientists and engineers known through formulas, methods and procedures. This monograph not only commemorates past contributions, it will inspire future generations to pursue deeply-rooted multi-disciplinary research at the international level.—Prof. Pierre Julien, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, USAHydraulicians in Europe 1800-2000 by Willi H. Hager published by IAHR in 2003 was the first volume of a monumental task undertaken by the author. In this second volume of the same format as its predecessor Prof. Hager mainly fills in gaps of volume 1 adding also biographies of more recently deceased scientists and engineers in the field of hydraulic engineering. Together volumes 1 and 2 are not only evidence of the author's erudition and enthusiasm but above all a very valuable and lasting reference.—Emeritus Professor P. Novak, School of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK

From the reviews:

"The impact of mathematical modeling and analysis on biological applications has been significant. But the area of optimization is just beginning to be applied to biosystems, and this book illustrates some possible applications and techniques. … An undergraduate student interested in population models and game theory could benefit from this book. … This book would be a valuable source for game theory and examples of optimization of parameters, and for optimal control … ." (Suzanne Lenhart, SIAM Review, Vol. 50 (3), 2008)
"The book comprises four lengthy chapters, with liberal use of sub-sections to make the whole more easily digestible. … The book is clearly laid out … . Each chapter has a short list of references … . For those who seek a detailed introduction into mathematical modelling of biological systems this book would be a most useful resource." (B. Spedding, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 60 (2), 2009)

"Inaccessibility fueled its mystique, and the Torlonia Collection became the stuff of legend. After decades of negotiations and false starts, the public will be able to decide whether reality lives up to the myth when 96 statues go on display at the Palazzo Caffarelli, part of the Capitoline Museums here, in March. The exhibition, &ldquo;The Torlonia Marbles. Collecting Masterpieces,&rdquo; will be open for a nine-month stint, a prelude to a grand tour." &mdash;&#160;NEW YORK TIMES&#160;"The Torlonia Collection is one of the most important collections of classical sculpture still in private hands. Only a few people have ever glimpsed the 620 works in storage." &mdash;ARTNET.COM

This second edition is fully revised and reorganized, with new chapters concerning third generation and quantum dot detectors, THz detectors, cantilever and antenna coupled detectors, and information on radiometry and IR optics materials. Part IV concerning focal plane arrays is significantly expanded. This book, resembling an encyclopedia of IR detectors, is well illustrated and contains many original references … a really comprehensive book.—F. Sizov, Institute of Semiconductor Physics, National Academy of Sciences, Kiev, Ukraine
