Thomas F. Pettigrew是加利福尼亚大学圣克鲁兹分校的社会心理学研究教授。自1956年起，他已经发表了超过400篇论文、书的章节以及评论，以及16本书和专著。佩蒂格鲁因其在过去半个世纪将社会心理学的关注点集中于群际接触领域而广受认可。本书的研究聚焦在找到宏观（文化和结构）、中观（情境）和微观（个体）水平的社会科学理论和研究的联接之上，而群际接触正是构成了这样的一种联接。佩蒂格鲁曾担任社会问题心理研究学会（SPSSI）的主席，曾获得过协会的柯特勒温杰出贡献奖，并两次获得协会的戈登奥尔波特群际研究奖。2002年，实验社会心理学会授予他杰出科学家奖。 Linda R. Tropp是马萨诸塞大学阿默斯特分校的心理学副教授，以及该校和平与暴力心理学项目的主席。她主要的研究兴趣是多数地位群体和少数地位群体的成员间发生的群际接触经验、对社会群体的认同...(展开全部)

In 2006, about 69 million U.S. households had pets, giving homes to around 73.9 million dogs, 90.5 million cats, and 16.6 million birds, and spending more than 38 billion dollars on companion animals. As never before in history, our pets are truly members of the family. But the notion of “companion species”—knotted from human beings, animals and other organisms, landscapes, and...(展开全部)

One of the founders of the posthumanities, Donna J. Haraway is professor in the History of Consciousness program at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Author of many books and widely read essays, including The Companion Species Manifesto: Dogs, People, and Significant Otherness and the now-classic essay “The Cyborg Manifesto,” she received the J. D. Bernal Prize in 2000,...(展开全部)

This graduate textbook presents a concrete and up-to-date introduction to the theory of Coxeter groups. The book is self-contained, making it suitable either for courses and seminars or for self-study. The first part is devoted to establishing concrete examples. Finite reflection groups acting on Euclidean spaces are discussed, and the first part ends with the construction of t...(展开全部)

Ever since the concepts of Galois groups in algebra and fundamental groups in topology emerged during the nineteenth century, mathematicians have known of the strong analogies between the two concepts. This book presents the connection starting at an elementary level, showing how the judicious use of algebraic geometry gives access to the powerful interplay between algebra and ...(展开全部)

Loop groups, the simplest class of infinite dimensional Lie groups, have recently been the subject of intense study. This book gives a complete and self-contained account of what is known about them from a geometrical and analytical point of view, drawing together the many branches of mathematics from which current theory developed--algebra, geometry, analysis, combinatorics, a...(展开全部)

This book is intended for a one year graduate course on Lie groups. Rather than providing a comprehensive treatment, the author emphasizes the beautiful representation theory of compact groups. However, this book also discusses important topics such as the Bruhat decomposition and the theory of symmetric spaces.
