76 Fogel, Alan DaleResearch in review: the development of nurturance in young childrenAn important, perhaps essential, adult characteristic is the motivation and ability to be a skillful and sensitive caregiver. This ability is the core of effective parenting and is also needed by nonfamily child care providers, caregivers for the handicapped and elderly, loving partners, and even pe...Nurturance1988
77 Morse, Michael DavidResonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy of jet-cooled Pt?The gas phase optical spectrum of jet-cooled Pt? has been investigated over the range of 11 300 to 26 300 cm -1 using resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy in combination with time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Numerous vibronic bands are observed. Analysis of the data gives the location of som...1988
78 White, Nicholas P.Review of J. Annas and J. Barnes, 'The modes of scepticism'This is a review of Julia Annas and Jonathan Barnes book, The Modes of Scepticism: Ancient Texts and Modern Interpretations. This book contains translations of material from Philo of Alexandria, Diogenes Laertius, and Sextus Empiricus concerning the ancient 'modes' or 'tropes' of skeptical argument...Skepticism; Book review; Tropes (Philosophy;)1988
79 White, Nicholas P.Review of Suzanne Mansion, 'Etudes Aristoteliciennes: receuils d'articlesThis volume is a posthumous collection of articles, all previously published and almost all on Aristotle, by Suzanne Mansion, along with a list of her scholarly works (xviiixxi). The articles printed here are reproduced photographically along with their original pagination, and a continuous paginati...Aristotle; Plato; Ancient Philosophy1988
80 Firmage, Edwin B.Rogue presidents and the war power of congressSince World War II we have engaged in overt and covert war and acts of war, often initiated by the president without the authorization of Congress. By presidential directive we have conducted full-scale war; initiated coups; mined harbors; encouraged political assassination; aided insurrection and s...War power; Presidents; Congress1988
81 Sperry, John S.Seasonal occurrence of xylem embolism in sugar maple (Acer saccharum)Xylem embolism, the reduction of water flow by air-filled vessels, was measured in a stand of 5- to 8-year-old sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) saplings growing in a nursery bed in northwestern Vermont. Embolism was quantified as percentage loss in hydraulic conductivity of trunk and branch seg...Xylem pressure; root pressure; dye perfusion1988

83 Gopalakrishnan, GaneshSpecification-driven design of custom hardware in HOPWe present a language "Hardware viewed as Objects and Processes" (HOP) for specifying the structure, behavior, and timing of hardware systems. HOP embodies a simple process model for lock-step synchronous processes. Processes may be described both as a black-box and as a collection of interacting s...HOP; hardware systems; Structure; Behavior; Timing; custom hardware1988
84 Morse, Michael DavidSpectroscopy and electronic structure of jet-cooled NiCuDiatomic nickel-copper, NiCu, has been investigated by resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy in a jet-cooled molecular beam. Six band systems have been identified over the range 11 500-16 500 cm-1. The ground state of NiCu has been determined to be X 2?5/2, with ?"e = 273.01 ? 1.15 cm-1, ?"exe...1988

88 Henderson, Thomas C.; Meek, Sanford G.Task defined grasp force solutionsForce Control for dextrous manipulation has been approached algebraically with a great deal of success, however, the computational burden created when such approaches are applied to grasps consisting of many contacts is prohibitive. This paper describes a procedure which restricts the complexity of ...grasp force; dextrous manipulation1988

90 Cashdan, Elizabeth A.Technological change and child behavior among the !KungHow does change in one part of a social system affect other parts? This is the central question that must be answered in order to understand the process through which culture changes. This paper is about a small piece of the problem. It investigates how changes in subsistence economy affect child be...Child behavior; Technological change; Foraging groups; Settled groups1988
91 Battin, Margaret P.Textbook of healthcare ethicsLoewy's Textbook of Healthcare Ethics is one of the very few books that is better than its title. It is a textbook; it does address ethics; and it does survey a broad range of issues in health care. Of course it includes the usual theoretical rubrics like autonomy and responsibility, physician/patie...1988
92 Fujimoto, Richard M.Time warp on a shared memory multiprocessorA variation of the Time Warp parallel discrete event simulation mechanism is presented that is optimized for execution on a shared memory multiprocessor. In particular, the direct cancellation mechanism is proposed that eliminates the need for anti-messages and provides an efficient mechanism for ca...1988
93 Fujimoto, Richard M.The virtual time machineExisting multiprocessors and multicomputers require the programmer or compiler to perform data dependence analysis at compile time. We propose a parallel computer that performs this task at runtime. In particular, the Virtual Time Machine (VTM) detects violations of data dependence constraints as th...1988
94 Francis, LeslieVirtue and the American family: abortion and divorce in Western law by Mary Ann GlendonAbortion and Divorce in Western Law is seductive and dangerous. It is seductive because it is half right; it is dangerous because it is half wrong on many levels: the data assembled about abortion law, the comparative law methodology employed, and the conclusions drawn for American public policy abo...Abortion and divorce in American law; Book review; Glendon, Mary Ann1988
95 McDaniel, SusanWomen's roles and reproduction: the changing picture in Canada in the 1980'sThe social roles of women have always been affected by their reproductive roles. Recently in Canada, as well as elsewhere, several challenges to traditional thinking about women's roles and reproduction have emerged. These challenges have called into question the models typically used to analyze wom...Childbearing; Motherhood; Childcare1988
96 Akella, VenkateshYAMA: yet another microassembler description && users guideYAM A is an CommonLisp program for creating microcode PROMS. It lets you specify the microcode in a fairly high level language that provides various features found normally in sophisticated assemblers. The salient features of YAMA are 1. Provision for record and enumerated data types at micro asse...1988
97 Miller, Jan D.Zinc-dust cementation of silver from alkaline cyanide solutions - analysis of plant dataThe direct recovery of precious metals from alkaline cyanide solution is frequently accomplished by the well-established Merrill-Crowe process involving zinc-dust cementation. This is particularly true for silver. Plant data from two operations are presented and analyzed in terms of intrinsic reacti...Zinc-dust; Silver; Alkaline cyanide; Merrill-Crowe1988
