Selected Works of Frederick J. Almgren, Jr

This volume offers a unique collection of some of the work of Frederick J. Almgren, Jr., the man most noted for defining the shape of geometric variational problems and for his role in founding The Geometry Center. Included in the volume are the following: a summary by Sheldon Chang of the famous 1700 page paper on singular sets of area-minimizing $m$-dimensional surfaces in $R^n$, a detailed summary by Brian White of Almgren's contributions to mathematics, his own announcements of several longer papers, important shorter papers, and memorable expository papers. Almgren's enthusiasm for the subject and his ability to locate mathematically beautiful problems that were ``ready to be solved'' attracted many students who further expanded the subject into new areas. Many of these former students are now known for the clarity of their expositions and for the beauty of the problems that they work on. As Almgren's former graduate student, wife, and colleague, Professor Taylor has compiled an important volume on an extraordinary mathematician. This collection presents a fine comprehensive view of the man's mathematical legacy.

Fred Almgren died February 5, 1997, at the age of 63, due to a sudden
devastating illness called myelodysplastic syndrome. Still in the full flow of his
creativity, he left two major papers unfinished and two students with theses not
yet completed ...

The Quranic Concept of Nikah (Wedlock) Versus Religious Prostitution

As the name suggests, this publication primarily deals with wedlock [Nikah] ordained by the Qur'an and fornication / adultery permissible under the forged concept of Mut'ah, but it also encompasses the intellectual bankruptcy of the clerical elite, who devised ways and means to bypass the crystal clear injunctions of Allah's last revelation. This form of deviation falls under the concept of academic whoring and throughout the Muslim history, especially during the reigns of caliphs and kings, the alleged academicians had been acting as their harlots and prostituting their professional talents for personal gains. It is a shame to admit that the constitution implemented by Mohammad and his steadfast companions for the establishment of a peaceful society, is nowhere to be found. The same chronic ruling autocrats, despotic dictators and heads of bogus democracies are entrenched in the Muslim world and 1.35 billion Muslims are nothing more than a gigantic herd of sheep. This state of affairs is responsible for the deplorable situation the Ummah finds itself locked in. They are facing worst humiliation in all areas of conflict, like Palestine, Kashmir, Chechnya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Malaysia, etc. The Muslim blood is the cheapest commodity on the planet and its letting is continuing brazenly. Here a disturbing question comes to mind, how the followers of Mohammad, one of the most successful Messengers of Allah, in his own time, reached this degradation within a span of fourteen centuries? The answer is very simple; a progressive succession of conspiracies, most of which originated in Iran, completely demolished the real Quranic system that, once guaranteed personal freedom, immediate justice, social equality, equal opportunity and complete security for every member of the society.

Air Pollution Control Engineering

Second Edition

Air pollution control can be approached from a number of different engineering disciplines environmental, chemical, civil, and mechanical. To that end, Noel de Nevers has written an engaging overview of the subject. While based on the fundamentals of chemical engineering, the treatment is accessible to readers with only one year of college chemistry. In addition to discussions of individual air pollutants and the theory and practice of air pollution control devices, de Nevers devotes about half the book to topics that influence device selection and design, such as atmospheric models and U.S. air pollution law. The generous number of end-of-chapter problems are designed to develop more complex thinking about the concepts presented and integrate them with readers personal experienceincreasing the likelihood of deeper understanding.
