Første danske udgave af denne moderne klassiker, der fortæller den tragiske historie om lægen og digteren, Yuri Zhivago, i årene under den Russiske Revolution.First Danish edition of this modern classic, which tells the tragic story of the medical doctor and poet, Yuri Zhivago, in the years during the Russian Revolution.Though begun several decades earlier, the work was completed in 1956, and was submitted for publication to the journal "Novij Mir" the same year, but due to the controversial contents of the work and the Soviet government's dislike of Pasternak, it was rejected. The following year the manuscript was smuggled out of the Soviet Union by the Italian publisher Feltrinelli, who published the book in Russian in Milan in 1957. Already the following year numerous European translations of the work had been made, amongst these the Danish one, though the English and Italian ones appeared as the first. These immediate translations and the publications of them partly caused Pasternak being awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1958. Due to the immense popularity of the work, alle the European translations were reprinted numerous times.In 1965 the work was made into the large-scale film-production by David Lean, which was nominated for ten Oscars and won five.

First printing of three important papers by Brouwer. In "Zur Invarianz des n-dimensionalen Gebiets" Brouwer introduced his "Invariance of domain" which is a theorem in topology about homeomorphic subsets of Euclidean space."The existence of one-to-one correspondences between numerical spaces Rn for different n, shown by Cantor, together with Peano's subsequent example (1890) of a continuous mapping of the unit segment onto the square, had induced mathematicians to conjecture that topological mappings of numerical spaces Rn would preserve the number n (dimension). In 1910 Brouwer proved this conjecture for arbitrary n." (DSB)

Binary decision diagrams were introduced by Lee in the present paper.

VII, (3), 347 pp. First edition, second impression of Katona's seminal work constituting one of the very first to advocate a rapprochement between economics and psychologists.Katona contrasted "genuine decision" and "habitual behavior". In fact, neoclassical economics deemed human decision making as genuine decision (with complete rationality), whereas evolutionary economics emphasized that economic behavior take a form of habits and customs. "Katona developed the theory and substance of psychological economics, with particular attention to the effects of national events on the confidence, expectations, plans and ultimately behaviour of masses of individual. From a background in Gestalt psychology, he noted that there can be major restructuring of the way people interpret their world and its future, leading to sometimes dramatic shifts in behaviour."
