In the 1960's marked changes occurred throughout the world in philosophies and policies related to man's role in life. These changes, prompted predominantly by extensive increases in knowledge and popula­ tion density, have produced increased pleasures as well as problems. The rising number of people and improved methods of communication and transportation have caused more relationships among people, with their pleasures, competitions, jealousies, conflicts of interest, oppressions, and crimes. Large assortments of drugs have been developed and are easily obtained. There are drugs to speed us up, slow us down, make us sleep, change our perspectives on life, promote propagation of life or prevent it, prolong life or terminate it, and modify the course of life in many ways. Also, numerous mechanical devices have been developed that influence the propagation of life, the termination of life, and the manner in which we live. Many people have changed their overall goals in life, and in par­ ticular have experienced major changes in attitudes and policies applying to sexual activity, marriage, birth control, abortion, welfare, children, old people, criminals, economics, social status, careers, education, euthanasia, and suicide. There also has been marked enlightenment concerning the effect of the chemical and physical status of the brain upon normal and abnormal thinking and behavior.

For the first time several different diverse but related topics concerned with semiconductor growth are brought together in a single text. Techniques used to gain information about the growing surface, a crucial condition in order to design semiconductor structures in a controllable manner, are examined before efforts are made to understand the semiconductor interface from both theoretical and experimental approaches. The fabrication and evolution of surface morphology are discussed followed by investigations of the monitoring and control of the interface. Those studying semiconductor growth from any perspective should find this book useful, and it should also be useful for all in the semiconductor industry, whether applying or manufacturing. This book should be of interest to materials scientists, electronic engineers and physicists concerned with research and development in semiconductors.

An important reference book both now and post 1992. It gives a clear introduction to the industrial property market in Europe and provides the information needed to understand each country's system of planning and property development.
