From the reviews:“This monograph presents a mathematical approach to turbulence modeling and is aimed at graduate students and researchers in the field of computational fluid dynamics. … The book presents the governing Navier-Stokes equations and the basics of large eddy simulation from a mathematical perspective without going into details of the flow physics. … Difficulties of the models in the vicinity of walls with no-slip boundary conditions are mentioned, and numerical examples of different flows illustrate some properties of the approximate deconvolution models.” (Kai Schneider, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1241, 2012)

&#8220;A dynamic and absorbing account, written in a lively and captivating manner, of a remarkable family and its even more remarkable scion, Florence Nightingale. Gill has used her sources to maximum effect, engaging the reader in a pacy narrative that brings that far distant &#8216;other country,&#8217; the Victorian age, so vividly to life. I highly recommend it!&#8221;&#8211;ALISON WEIR, author of Eleanor of Aquitaine&#8220;Nightingales is wonderful. I will certainly never again dare to think of Florence Nightingale as &#8216;a lifelong spinster&#8217; with an invalid&#8217;s need for noble self-sacrifice, but as a powerful woman who changed the course of the British government toward their own wounded forever.&#8221;   &#8211;NANCY MILFORD, author of Savage Beauty and Zelda&#8220;Imaginatively conceived and elegantly written, Nightingales tells the compelling story of a family and an era with great style and flair. Even minor characters are wonderfully drawn and the tone is both intimate and erudite.&#8221;&#8211;DIANE JACOBS, author of Her Own Woman: The Life of Mary Wollstonecraft&#8220;A beautifully written and nuanced portrait . . . Gill infuses her subject with rare vitality and untangles the strands of historical, social, and personal forces that determine the course of female life. This multifaceted approach challenges the myths surrounding Nightingale&#8217;s struggle for fulfillment, giving us a fascinating window into one Victorian woman that becomes a lens through which we can view ourselves.&#8221;&#8211;SUSAN HERTOG, author of Anne Morrow Lindbergh&#8220;Nightingales brilliantly captures the unique intensity both of individuals and an age. Gill vividly evokes the complex and fascinating interrelations of an exceptional family. She engages her reader at every step as we travel with the fiercely intelligent and charismatic Florence Nightingale on her remarkable life journey.&#8221;&#8211;ANNA BEER, author of My Just Desire

"Accurate and efficient collision detection in complex environments is one of the foundations of today's cutting-edge computer games.  Yet collision detection is notoriously difficult to implement robustly and takes up an increasingly large fraction of compute cycles in current game engines as increasingly detailed environments are becoming the norm. Real-time Collision Detection is a comprehensive reference on this topic, covering it with both breadth and depth.  Not only are the fundamental algorithms explained clearly and in detail, but Ericson's book covers crucial implementation issues, including geometric and numeric robustness and cache-efficient implementations of the algorithms.  Together, these make this book a 'must have' practical reference for anyone interested in developing interactive applications with complex environments." -Matt Pharr, NVIDIA"Christer Ericson's Real-time Collision Detection is an excellent resource that covers the fundamentals as well as a broad array of techniques applicable to game development."  -Jay Stelly, Valve"Christer Ericson provides a practical and very accessible treatment of real-time collision detection.  This includes a comprehensive set of C++ implementations of a very large number of routines necessary to build such applications in a context which is much broader than just game programming.  The programs are well-thought out and the accompanying discussion reveals a deep understanding of the graphics, algorithms, and ease of implementation issues.  It will find a welcome home on any graphics programmer's bookshelf although it will most likely not stay there long as others will be constantly borrowing it...." -Hanan Samet, University of Maryland"Real-Time Collision Detection is an excellent resource that every serious engine programmer should have on his bookshelf.  Christer Ericson covers an impressive range of techniques and presents them using concise mathematics, insightful figures, and practical code." -Eric Lengyel, Senior Programmer, Naughty Dog"If you think you already know everything about collision detection, you're in for a surprise! This book not only does an excellent job at presenting all the collision detection methods known to date, it also goes way beyond the standard material thanks to a plethora of juicy, down-to-earth, hard-learned implementation tips and tricks. This produces a perfect blend between theory and practice, illustrated by the right amount of source code in appropriate places. Basically the book just oozes with experience. Christer doesn't forget all the alternative topics that, despite not directly related to collision detection, can ruin your implementation if you don't include them in your design. The chapters on robustness and optimization are priceless in this respect. Its carefully crafted compact kd-tree implementation beautifully concludes a unique book full of luminous gems." -Pierre Terdiman, principal software engineer, NovodeX AG, and writer of the popular collision detection library Opcode"When I received a copy of Real-Time Collision Detection for review, I was in the midst of redesigning an architectural visualization and lighting design program. The Bounding Volume Hierarchies chapter allowed me to quickly and easily design and implement an efficient ray tracing acceleration scheme. It also provided me with a wealth of information on various design strategies, which gave me the confidence that I had chosen a near-optimal approach. What one of my clients recently said about the finished software reflects my opinion of this fantastic book: 'Holy cow! Excellent work!'" -Ian Ashdown, byHeart Consultants Limited

“The book is written for practitioners who
administer oral sedation in the dental office. It is a resource for pediatric
dentists, general dentists, predoctoral and graduate students in pediatric and
general practice residencies. … This is a well-organized, up-to-date review of
oral sedation techniques for the pediatric dental patients. The book is of the
highest quality and is the first to focus specifically on oral sedation in the
pediatric population.” (Janet H. Southerland, Doody's Book Reviews, November,

"Lundskaer-Nielsen has provided a lucid, informed, and (thankfully) non-partisan look at the British Invasion , which will do much to provide a new and much-desired context to this phenomenon. Her examination of the roots of the megamusical and its tremendous effect on both sides of the Atlantic will be fascinating to anyone interested in popular culture, the craft of the director, Anglo-American relations - let alone, of course, the commercial and artistic vagaries of the musical theater." - Laurence Maslon, Associate Arts Professor, New York University, co-author (with Michael Kantor) of Broadway: The American Musical, and author of The Sound of Music Companion

"I was impressed with the scope of Lundskaer-Nielsen's study, the range and depth of her knowledge about theatre and musical theatre, and the connections she is able to make among disparate works and influences. Her premise that the directors of 'musical dramas' have been relatively ignored, while the choreographer-directors have been accorded a central place in the historical narrative of musical theatre is sound and meticulously developed. Her analyses are cogent, her conclusions perceptive and valid." - Barbara Wallace Grossman, Chair, Department of Drama and Dance, Tufts University

"As the first book to concentrate on the director s contribution to the collaborative creation of the modern musical, this volume presents a wise and balanced approach to developments in Anglo-American musical theatre over the last three decades. Unlike the many opinionated and emotive accounts of the decline of the Broadway musical and the corresponding rise of the so-called megamusical in the 1980s, it constitutes a rare example in the field of a book that is both accessible to the average reader while offering a sophisticated and carefully researched re-appraisal of the recent history and aesthetics of the genre." - Robert Gordon, Professor of Drama, Goldsmiths College, University of London
