Lectures on Non-perturbative Canonical Gravity
Notes prepared in Collaboration with Ranjeet S Tate It is now generally recognized that perturbative field theoretical methods that have been highly successful in the quantum description of non-gravitational interactions cannot be used as a means of constructing a quantum theory of gravity. The primary aim of the book is to present an up- to-date account of a non-perturbative, canonical quantization program for gravity. Many of the technical results obtained in the process are of interest also to differential geometry, classical general relativity and QCD. The program as a whole was highlighted in virtually every major conference in gravitational physics over the past three years.
Global Marketing Strategies for the Promotion of Luxury Goods
Vast markets for high-symbolic-value goods serve as an expansive worldwide arena where luxury brands and products compete for consumer attention. As global luxury markets have grown and continue to grow, uncovering successful methods for maintaining brand image and consumer desire is critical to the success of high-end brands. Global Marketing Strategies for the Promotion of Luxury Goods explores the latest promotional trends, business models, and challenges within the luxury goods market. Focusing on strategies for achieving competitive advantage, new market development, as well as the role of the media in luxury brand building, this timely reference publication is designed for use by business professionals, researchers, and graduate-level students.

Hawking on the Big Bang and Black Holes
Stephen Hawking, the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, has made important theoretical contributions to gravitational theory and has played a major role in the development of cosmology and black hole physics. Hawking's early work, partly in collaboration with Roger Penrose, showed the significance of spacetime singularities for the big bang and black holes. His later work has been concerned with a deeper understanding of these two issues. The work required extensive use of the two great intellectual achievements of the first half of the Twentieth Century: general relativity and quantum mechanics; and these are reflected in the reprinted articles. Hawking's key contrib...
Gerard And Antoinette De Vaucouleurs: A Life For Astronomy
Gérard and Antoinette de Vaucouleurs are among the most prominent and respected astronomers of this century. This volume was put together by a number of his friends and colleagues to mark the occasion of Gérard de Vaucouleurs' 70th birthday and consequent retirement from his chair at the University of Texas, Austin. It is dedicated to the memory of Antoinette de Vaucouleurs.
Glimpsing an Invisible Universe
This book deals with the evolution of X-ray astronomy during the initial phases of its development. Three transformations of astronomy as a discipline are highlighted: the augmentation of purely optical observations; the emergence of federal funding as the dominant source of financial support; and the greatly altered size and structure of the research community.
Remo Ruffini Festschrift
A conference celebrating Remo Ruffini's 80th birthday was held in Nice, France, from 16 to 18 May 2022, with the participation of over 90 scientists. Among the contributions presented orally there were those by Rashid Sunyaev, Peter Predehl, Demetrios Christodoulou, Thibault Damour, Nathalie Deruelle, Roy Kerr, Tsvi Piran, Claus Laemmerzahl, Asghar Qadir, Chen Pisin, and Marco Tavani, in the presence of Agnès Rampal, the representative of the Mayor of Nice. An extraordinary moment of the meeting in Nice was the delivery of the Marcel Grossmann Award to Rashid Sunyaev and Peter Predehl for the Spectr-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission. This volume contains 10 papers by some of the meeting participants and collaborators of Remo Ruffini.

Relativistic Astrophysics
All papers have been peer-reviewed. This is conference for physicists, in particular from China and Italy, to present their most recent research works on both theoretical and observational aspects of Relativistic Astrophysics. The conference topics cover the following research fields: gamma-ray bursts; galactic dynamic and survey; dark matter; dark energy and high red-shift universe; black holes; neutron stars and supernovae; general relativity; classical and quantum gravity, and field theory.
