This major new reference for students, faculty, and professionals of American corporate governance, modern financial history, and securities law begins with an examination of the collapse of the Enron Corporation and other financial scandals that arose in the wake of the market downturn of 2000. Jerry W. Markham, author of the award-winning Financial History of the United States and former SEC counsel, provides context and analysis to the modern era of corporate curruption. The book examines the SEC's full disclosure system in corporate governance and the role of accountants in that system, including Arthur Andersen LLP, the Enron auditor that collapsed after it was accused of obstructing justice. The author chronicles the meltdown in the telecom sector that gave rise to accounting scandals at Nortel, Lucent, Qwest, Global Crossing, Adelphia, and WorldCom. He traces other accounting and governance failures at Rite Aid, Xerox, Computer Associates, AOL Time Warner, Vivendi, HealthSouth, and Hollinger. Markham also covers such Wall Street scandals as the Martha Stewart trial, the financial analyst conflicts, and the mutual fund trading abuses. This reference places today's financial news in perspective with discussion of the Sarbanes-Oxley legislation that was adopted in response to these scandals, the burdens it imposes, and continuing flaws in full disclosure. The book also traces the remarkable market recovery that followed the scandals and addresses the misguided efforts of corporate governance reformers that led to the abuses.

Major depression was meticulously described by Hippocrates nearly 2500 years ago. Melancholia, a subtype of depression, is the only word which was coined by Hippocrates based on his theory of the four humors (melancholia: black bile), and that is still used today to describe a disorder that is part of contemporary official diagnostic systems. This book covers major depressive disorder, specifically unipolar depression, a condition that we conceptualize as a common and complex disorder of gene– environment interactions for which the specific genetic and environmental substrates are still unknown. These words are simple but are loaded with meaning, as follows. Common – depression is highly prevalent worldwide. As the disorder is episodic, lifetime rates are higher than point prevalence. Even though figures vary worldwide, depression is indeed very common.

Acoustic microscopy enables you to image and measure the elastic properties of materials with the resolution of a good microscope. By using frequencies in microwave regime, it is possible to make the acoustic wavelength comparable with the wavelength of light, and hence to achieve a resolution comparable with an optical microscope. Solids can support both longitudinal and transverse acoustic waves. At surfaces a unique combination of the two known as Raleigh waves can propagate, and in many circumstances these dominate the contrast in acoustic microscopy. Following the invention of scanning probe microscopes, it is now possible to use an atomic force microscope to detect the acoustic vibration of a surface with resolution in the nanometre range, thus beating the diffraction limit by operating in the extreme near-field. This 2nd edition of Acoustic Microscopy has a major new chapter on the technique and applications of acoustically excited probe microscopy.

Several years have passed since the publication of the first edition of the Dangerous Weather series of books. Much has happened during that time and my friends at Facts On File and I felt it would be appropriate to revise all of the books in the series in order to bring them up to date. As we began to prepare the new editions, it occurred to us that none of the books so much as mentioned climate change, yet in the minds of many people this is the single most important environmental issue of our time. Omitting the topic from a series of books about the atmosphere might make it seem that we were either ignorant or uncaring. First, though, we had to decide whether the subject would fit into the overall concept of the series. Is it “dangerous weather”? Obviously, it is “weather.” Is it dangerous? If some of the more alarming predictions were to come true, many people would be at risk. Sea levels might rise, causing flooding in coastal areas. Agricultural yields might decrease, causing food prices to rise. Some people would suffer, although the suffering would not be shared equally—it never is. So we decided that, yes, climate change can be considered dangerous. It is a suitable topic for a book on Dangerous Weather.
