This unique book features 37 full-length, peer-reviewed versions of papers presented at the First Los Alamos Symposium on Ultra-Wideband Radar. The purpose of the symposium was to offer an open, unbiased forum where researchers in areas connected to ultra-wideband radar (UWBR) could present results of their work and exchange ideas. The papers published from the proceedings illuminate the breadth and depth of the topic and cover seven general areas: fundamental electromagnetic theory; computational electromagnetics and code development; signal propagation, scattering, and reception; new technologies, advanced arrays, and imaging; signal processing and radar systems; and applications and testing. The book will provide stimulating reading for scientists, engineers, managers, and students working with UWBR.

Bruce Field here explores the people and events of a little-studied episode in American history by describing how the leadership of the Farmers Union split over the Korean War. When the organization was faced with accusations of being communist sympathizers NFU national president Jim Patton chose to support the war while a splinter group led by Iowa Farmers Union president Fred Stover continued to protest American involvement.
