The Social

This book on Slavic matriarchy is the result of the studies and researches that Evel Gasparini carried out over the span of his lifetime. Intrigued by the possibility of a close link between the collective ownership of the land and the ancient agricultural-matriarchal substrate of Slav culture, Gasparini launched on the titanic enterprise of analysing the archaeological and historical sources of early Slavic civilisation. Basing himself on a concept of culture elaborated in the ethnological field, he brought to light certain contradictions in the application of the Indo-European paradigm to Slavic culture and identified a series of elements illustrating the matriarchal substrate. Exploiting an uncommon knowledge of cultural anthropology and profound linguistic competencies, in this book Gasparini maps out a complex panorama ranging from the economy to the social structure and from the religious traditions to music and dance. Out of print for some time, the book is now proposed in a new, more convenient form, complete with an appendix on Finns and Slavs – which was originally intended as another chapter in the book but was then left out – a detailed preface by Gasparini's disciple Remo Faccani, and a bibliography of the scholar's oeuvre edited by Donatella Possamai.

Test Result

Abstract The diagnostic implication of a certain test result with regard to a certain condition can be expressed as a single number, L, the likelihood ratio of this result. This ratio allows Bayes's theorem to be written in a convenient form. We show that the practice of calculating predictive values for the results of quantitative tests by use of discrimination limits leads to incorrect predictive values. Including L values in laboratory reports seems a more logical approach to optimum interpretation of laboratory results than the use of discrimination values.

Set Up

The work of the engineer in design, research, or development very often involves extensive arithmetical computations. For this he uses a slide rule, computing machine, and sometimes logarithms, but first the factors are set up in some convenient form for easy manipulation. In all his work the engineer is concerned with two things: short cuts to save time, and accuracy. Herewith is outlined a method which constitutes somewhat of a short cut and at the same time results in increased accuracy for arithmetical computation. It is a method much used by engineering students and practicing engineers; it is very convenient, and should be made available to high school students.

Impact Experiments

The influence of thermal energy of atoms and molecules and of the energy distribution of electrons on results obtained from electronic impact experiments are analyzed. Special attention is devoted to the width of the peaks found in the spectra of elastically and inelastically scattered electrons. Results are presented in the convenient form of tables, graphs, and a nomogram in order that they may be easily accessible to researchers in the field of electronic collisions. The method used to calculate the influences of the experimental factors has also been used in the case of resonant elastic scattering of electrons in helium. These experimental factors are the thermal energy of the particles of the target and the spread of the electron energy.

Classic Paper

The original draft of this paper was read at the First International Congress of Prehistoric Sciences in 1932, and a summary was printed in the ‘Proceedings of the Congress’ (p. 144). It has since been re-written and incorporates new evidence.The English long barrows have not been dealt with as a whole since the classic paper of Dr Thurnam in 1868, but a series of regional studies, mainly the production of the archaeological department of the Ordnance Survey, have made the material available in convenient form. The publication of the Survey's complete map of British megaliths will enable many problems to be approached from the view point of distribution, but the southern English material, which is already published, raises one problem, at least, of first-class importance.
