Data Compression: The Complete ReferenceGiambattista della Porta, a Renaissance scientist, was the author in 1558 of Magia Naturalis (Natural Magic), a book in which he discusses many subjects, including demonology, magnetism, and the camera obscura. The book mentions an imaginary device that has since become known as the “sympathetic telegraph.” This device was to have... | | Fundamentals of the Physics of Solids: Volume 1: Structure and Dynamics"This first volume a ] focuses on crystal structure and lattice dynamics. a ] provides a substantial amount of theoretical material at an advanced graduate level. a ] There is more material here than can be covered in a single semester, and this book is more detailed than the well-known books a ] . This volume would be most attractive for a... | | Superconductivity: Fundamentals and Applications (Physics)Comprehensive and easy to understand this introductory text on superconductivity was especially written for the nonspecialist. The author, an active researcher in the field for more than forty years, presents the fundamental considerations (without too much mathematics), describes the various phenomena connected with the superconducting state,... |

Handbook of Magnetic Materials, Volume 21
Over the last few decades magnetism has seen an enormous expansion into a variety of different areas of research, notably the magnetism of several classes of novel materials that share with truly ferromagnetic materials only the presence of magnetic moments.
Volume 21 of the Handbook of Magnetic Materials, like the... | | Nanoalloys: From Fundamentals to Emergent Applications
Nanoalloys: From Fundamentals to Emergent Applications presents and discusses the major topics related to nanoalloys at a time when the literature on the subject remains scarce. Particular attention is paid to experimental and theoretical aspects under the form of broad reviews covering the most recent developments. The book is... | | History of WirelessImportant new insights into how various components and systems evolved
Premised on the idea that one cannot know a science without knowing its history, History of Wireless offers a lively new treatment that introduces previously unacknowledged pioneers and developments, setting a new standard for understanding the evolution of this important... |

Hidden Unity in Nature's LawsOne of the paradoxes of the physical sciences is that as our knowledge has progressed, more and more diverse physical phenomena can be explained in terms of fewer underlying laws, or principles. In Hidden Unity, eminent physicist John Taylor puts many of these findings into historical perspective and documents how progress is made when unexpected,... | | Quantum Magnetism (Lecture Notes in Physics)Putting the quantum into magnetism might, at first sight, seem like stating the obvious; the exchange interactions leading to collective magnetic behavior are, after all, a pure quantum effect. Yet, for many phenomena in magnetism this underlying quantum nature may be safely ignored at least on the qualitative level. The investigation of magnetic... | | Thin Film Magnotoresistive SensorsA comprehensive review of thin film magnetoresistive (MR) sensors, including the theory of magnetoresistive effects as well as the design, fabrication, properties and applications of MR sensors.
Thin film magnetoresistive sensors (MR sensors) are widely used in various applications. The most important are their applications as read... |
