Transformations explore the challenges of self-expression and self-acceptance we may face, the doubts and fears about being vulnerable, and sharing who we are. Are we enough? Are we true to ourselves and others? The poems and art explore, with humor and compassion, the transformation of moving beyond the barriers into the light and joy of self-expression. Most of the poems and art were created while Jordan lived in southwest Wisconsin with his family and researched quantum...

This book provides a comprehensive exploration in the fundamental physics of the non-relativistic atom in terms of its symmetries. The book gives a complete treatment of the dynamical symmetries of the H atom and the use of these symmetries to determine energy levels and analytically calculate the first order radiative Lamb shift using group theory. Understanding radiative shifts is critical since measurement of the Lamb shift led to the development of quantum electrodynamics. The harmony ...

We take the title of this journal from a novella of the same name by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The novella is an existentialist piece, written before Dostoyevsky's greatest works and before Existentialism had really taken root in literature. The unnamed narrator is frequently named an anti-hero and is described by the note on the back of the Dover edition as "a profoundly alienated individual in whose brooding self-analysis there is a search for the true and the good in a world of relative value...
