Reflecting on those people who are at odds with or at war against society, their social situation, and their psychological situation, this book reviews and integrates the substantial sociological and psychological studies of criminals, sexual deviants, drug abusers, the mentally ill, bohemians, and political radicals. Unlike most books on deviance, this one is not only sociological, but psychological as well. Usually these two facets are dealt with in different and separate literatures; this book connects them.

This text provides an introduction to clustering methods, including both hierarchical and non-hierarchical methods. It shows how clustering can be used to interpret large quantities of analytical data and it discusses the relation of clustering to other pattern recognition technologies. A two-level approach is used to provide both a qualitative understanding of the philosophy, advantages and disadvantages of clustering, and a quantitative understanding for readers who want a strong mathematical background. A worked example and a list of computer packages are included.

The revolutions that toppled the tsar and led to a Bolshevik regime played a decisive role in shaping world history in the twentieth century. This compact and comprehensive book puts the events of that fateful year into historical perspective. As background to the tensions that produced the revolutions, Russia's major unsolved problems -- from the Emancipation of 1861 down to 1905 -- are sketched with special attention to the Duma period and Russia's role in World War I. The selected readings vividly portray the protagonists and illustrate the attitudes and actions of the Russian people as a whole.

Group rings are easily defined, rather attractive algebraic objects. As the name implies, their study is a meeting place for two essentially different disciplines, the methods and results being a blending of group theory and ring theory. This book offers a comprehensive, self-contained treatment of group rings of infinite groups. The reprint edition contains an appendix which describes some recent developments in the field.
