Abstract

RAND is conducting a longitudinal study that evaluates the effectiveness of voluntary summer learning programs in reducing summer learning loss, which contributes substantially to the achievement gap between low- and higher-income students. Based on evaluations of programs in six school districts, this second report in a series provides research-based advice for school district leaders as they create and strengthen summer programs.

Abstract

Security in Embedded Devices Cathy Gebotys Although security is prevalent in PCs, wireless communications and other systems today, it is expected to become increasingly important and widespread in many embedded devices. For some time, typical embedded system designers have been dealing with tremendous challenges in performance, power, price and reliability. Now they must also deal with definition of security requirements, security design and implementation. Given the limited number of security engineers in the market, large background of cryptography with which these standards are based upon, and difficulty of ensuring the implementation will also be secure from attacks, security design remains a challenge. This book provides the foundations for understanding embedded security design, outlining various aspects of security in devices ranging from typical wireless devices such as PDAs through to contactless smartcards to satellites. Provides must-have content for both security engineers and embedded systems designers; Describes numerous case studies, including contactless smartcards, PDA security, and satellite security, illustrating various aspects of secure, embedded design; Covers security fundamentals, embedded security issues and crypto architecture; Shows readers how to attack an embedded system and how to embed countermeasures to resist attack--readers are shown that understanding attacks is crucial to implementing security in embedded systems.

Abstract

Rubens and the Eloquence of Drawing' re-examines the early graphic practice of the preeminent northern Baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens (Flemish, 1577-1640) in light of early modern traditions of eloquence, particularly as promoted in the late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Flemish, Neostoic circles of philologist, Justus Lipsius (1547-1606). Focusing on the roles that rhetorical and pedagogical considerations played in the artist's approach to disegno during and following his formative Roman period (1600-08), this volume highlights Rubens's high ambitions for the intimate medium of drawing as a primary site for generating meaningful and original ideas for his larger artistic enterprise. As in the Lipsian realm of writing personal letters - the humanist activity then described as a cognate activity to the practice of drawing - a Senecan approach to eclecticism, a commitment to emulation, and an Aristotelian concern for joining form to content all played important roles. Two chapter-long studies of individual drawings serve to demonstrate the relevance of these interdisciplinary rhetorical concerns to Rubens's early practice of drawing.

Abstract

Nucleases, the enzymes that cleave and shape nucleic acids, are key regulators of cellular metabolism. Angiogenesis and the unfolded protein response are just a few instances of important intra- and extracellular pathways regulated by nucleases. In Nuclease Methods and Protocols, researchers at the forefront of academic research and pharmaceutical drug development from four continents summarize their recent results. Their projects involve nucleases in many different areas of medicine and biology, ranging from protein structure and folding, to DNA repair, to developing cures for insidious diseases such as cystic fibrosis, AIDS, and cancer. Each chapter contains a minireview of a specific nuclease or nuclease-related theme, a discussion of why and when to use the assays described, and often, an explanation of how the assay was developed. The authors describe their most valuable methods for determining the mode of action, structure, interaction with other molecules, and physiological role of nucleases. Detailed step-by-step instructions and notes on avoiding pitfalls help ensure readily reproducible results. Comprehensive and highly practical, Nuclease Methods and Protocols offers both novice and experienced researchers a deeper understanding of the importance of nucleases in cell metabolism, growth control mechanisms, and, increasingly, in diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract

This book demonstrates the rich diversity and depth of political philosophy in the twentieth century. Catherine H. Zuckert has compiled a collection of essays recounting the lives of political theorists, connecting each biography with the theorist's life work and explaining the significance of the contribution to modern political thought. The essays are organized to highlight the major political alternatives and approaches. Beginning with essays on John Dewey, Carl Schmitt and Antonio Gramsci, representing the three main political alternatives - liberal, fascist and communist - at mid-century, the book proceeds to consider the lives and works of émigrés such as Hannah Arendt, Eric Voegelin, and Leo Strauss, who brought a continental perspective to the United States after World War II. The second half of the collection contains essays on recent defenders of liberalism, such as Friedrich Hayek, Isaiah Berlin and John Rawls and liberalism's many critics, including Michel Foucault, Jürgen Habermas and Alasdair MacIntyre.
