The Ideological Imagination strikes at the foundation of the major social controversies of our time. In a quietly reasoned and gracefully written book, Louis J. Halle enables us to view the ideological passions of the day in the perspective of history, as he traces their antecedents from Hobbes and Rousseau through the French Revolution, through Marx and Lenin, and through the apostles of fascism to our own day. Mr. Halle begins by considering the nature of those ideologies that have accompanied the rise of mass democracy. Where liberals have sought to accommodate the diversity of mind among "the people" of the state, totalitarians have tried to make all men of one mind. In our own time, as Mr. Halle demonstrates, the ideological basis of revolt is the individual's refusal to identify himself with the ignoble reality of established society. The consequence is the professional revolutionary, who concentrates on the destruction of society without a serious concern for what will replace it. This is precisely the reason why all the ideological revolutions that have succeeded since the French Revolution have actually failed. Social systems have been overthrown but never replaced by a regime of freedom and justice. As he begins with an historical investigation, so Mr. Halle concludes with a personal statement directed to the mass bigotry that increasingly threatens our freedom and progress, and may entail terrible human suffering. Finally, his own ideal of the intellectual's commitment to noncommitment is contrasted to the now fashionable advocacy of commitment as essential to the "authentic" life.

A thorough and insightful introduction to using genetic algorithms to optimize electromagnetic systems Genetic Algorithms in Electromagnetics focuses on optimizing the objective function when a computer algorithm, analytical model, or experimental result describes the performance of an electromagnetic system. It offers expert guidance to optimizing electromagnetic systems using genetic algorithms (GA), which have proven to be tenacious in finding optimal results where traditional techniques fail. Genetic Algorithms in Electromagnetics begins with an introduction to optimization and several commonly used numerical optimization routines, and goes on to feature: Introductions to GA in both binary and continuous variable forms, complete with examples of MATLAB(r) commands Two step-by-step examples of optimizing antenna arrays as well as a comprehensive overview of applications of GA to antenna array design problems Coverage of GA as an adaptive algorithm, including adaptive and smart arrays as well as adaptive reflectors and crossed dipoles Explanations of the optimization of several different wire antennas, starting with the famous "crooked monopole" How to optimize horn, reflector, and microstrip patch antennas, which require significantly more computing power than wire antennas Coverage of GA optimization of scattering, including scattering from frequency selective surfaces and electromagnetic band gap materials Ideas on operator and parameter selection for a GA Detailed explanations of particle swarm optimization and multiple objective optimization An appendix of MATLAB code for experimentation
