health consequences of major life events were published subsequently. Since the late 1970s, a variety of new methods of measuring stress have been developed and refined (e.g., A thorough review of each of these topic areas, including measurement and methodological problems, is beyond the scope

Households in the west African semi-arid tropics, as in much of the developing world, face substantial risk-- an inevitable consequence of engaging in rainfed agriculture in a drought-prone environment. It has long been hypothesized that these households keep livestock as a buffer stock to insulate

Abstract: We study the effect of technological knowledge on per-capita income and population in a Malthusian economy. Airy differential equations describe the evolution of knowledge. Consequently, the impact of technological knowledge on aggregate output is feeble before and strong after

We do not cast this in a post-modernist or negative light, but regard a clear understanding of it as fact and its consequences as crucial to understanding what collections are and what the implications are for the digital world.
