Professor Gerard G. Emch has been one of the pioneers of the C-algebraic approach to quantum and classical statistical mechanics. In a prolific scientific career, spanning nearly five decades, Professor Emch has been one of the creative influences in the general area of mathematical physics. The present volume is a collection of tributes, from former students, colleagues and friends of Professor Emch, on the occasion of his 70th birthday. The articles featured here are a small yet representative sample of the breadth and reach of some of the ideas from mathematical physics.It is also a testimony to the impact that Professor Emch's work has had on several generations of mathematical physicists as well as to the diversity of mathematical methods used to understand them.
The concept of phase space plays a decisive role in the study of the transition from classical to quantum physics. This is particularly the case in areas such as nonlinear dynamics and chaos, geometric quantization and the study of the various semi-classical theories, which are the setting of the present volume. Much of the content is devoted to the study of the Wigner distribution. This volume gives the first complete survey of the progress made by both mathematicians and physicists. It will serve as an excellent reference for further research.

Since the days of Diels, Alder and Woodward, cycloadditions have been among the most versatile reactions for stereoselective synthesis ... All relevant information is collected in this well-structured, practical handbook. Arranged according to the cycloaddition type, the suitable auxiliaries, reactants, stereoselectivities, yields, and references for each key reaction are compiled in compact tables. Scientists interested in the theoretical background of stereoselective cycloadditions will find an excellent selection of in-depth literature references. ... with this comprehensive data collection cycloadditions will become an even more powerful tool for every organic chemist working on stereoselective synthesis.
