The study of Asian historical demography has lagged behind that of its European and American counterparts for some time. This volume serves to narrow the gap by drawing together material from scholars specializing in demography across the spectrum of Asian countries. The collection divides into...

The values of dielectric constant for N,N-dimethylformamide(DMF)–water mixtures in entire mixing range have been determined in the frequency range 100 MHz–20 GHz at 298 K using the dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) method. The dielectric spectra of DMF–water mixture with an...
