Focusing on affine differential geometry, this book offers a comprehensive overview that merges classical theories with recent advancements. It emphasizes key features and their connections to various geometric fields, including Riemannian and projective differential geometry. The inclusion of computer graphics to illustrate important geometric surfaces enhances its appeal, making it an engaging resource for researchers in differential geometry and mathematical physicists looking for an accessible introduction.

This book discusses Nature and Human Communities in the historical and social background of Asia. Part 1 deals with the problems of coexistence among human beings. Part 2 explores coexistence between human beings and nature. The text focuses on local/regional commitments to solve problems and integrate specialized knowledge. It considers the kinds of relationship between human communities and nature that may lead to a more balanced, sustainable future for both. Avian Influenza poses a looming threat for human and animal health. The old paradigm was that the disease in waterfowl, poultry, pigs and man was caused by separate viruses that stayed within their own niche. Deadly outbreaks have shattered this view. This timely reference examines such sensitive issues as regulation of low pathogenic and high pathogenic AI, surveillance of waterfowl, live bird markets, and outbreak control in densely populated areas.
