Lyapunov analysis, which uses monotonicity of a given function of system state along trajectories of a given dynamical system, is a major tool of nonlinear system analysis It is possible, however, to use monotonicity of volumes of subsets of the state space to predict certain properties of system behavior. This lecture gives an introduction to suc methods

A basic knowledge of disinfection and sterilization is crucial for biosafety in the laboratory. Since heavily soiled items cannot promptly be disinfected or sterilized, it is equally important to understand the fundamentals of cleaning prior to disinfection (precleaning). In this regard, the following general principles apply to all known classes of microbial pathogens

Introduction to Economic Fluctuations The modern world regards business cycles much as the ancient Egyptians regarded the overflowing of the Nile. The phenomenon recurs at intervals, it is of great importance to everyone, and natural causes of it are not in sight -John Bates Clark, 1898 Economic fluctuations present a recurring problem for economists and policy-

Economic growth‖ Is there some action a government of India could take that would lead the Indian economy to grow like Indonesia's or Egypt's? If so, what, exactly? If not, what is it about the \nature of India that makes it so? The conse- quences for human welfare involved in questions like these are simply stag- gering: Once one starts to think about them, it is hard to think about Robert E. Lucas, Jr

In late 1990, executives, engineers, and financial advisors working for Amoco Corporation and Apache Corporation began serious discussions about the sale to Apache of MW Petroleum Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amoco Production Company. Amoco had transferred to MW certain of its own assets that it regarded as non-strategic. MW,s size, location, and operations were all very attractive to Apache, which had grown nearly 30% per year since the mid-1980s

Microorganisms are the most diversified and interesting to study. Microbiology is one of the most active and promising field in life sciences. I will try to integrate the most classical and basic ideas theories and concepts with the most recent advances in microbiology, which are so exciting and full of fun to know about
