The SAGE Encyclopedia of Terrorism, 2nd Edition edited by Gus Martin English | June 15, 2011 | ISBN: 141298016X | EPUB | 720 pages | 8.7 MB Six years after publication of the first edition of the best-selling Encyclopedia of Terrorism, much has changed on the national security scene. Despite the dark promises of Osama bin Laden following the 9/11 attacks, the United States has not experienced any major domestic terror incidents. Al-Qaeda itself is believed to be a severely crippled organization. But while U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq-not to mention the arrival of the Obama administration, a new balance of power within Congress, and an increasingly fragile economic picture-have significantly affected the national security picture, the threat of economic chaos and massive loss of life due to terror attacks has not abated. Indeed, in July 2008 analysts pointed out that even a relatively small terrorist organization could present a dire threat, with some experts arguing that a biological, chemical, or even nuclear attack on a major U.S. city is all but inevitable. The Reform of Time: Magic and Modernity By Maureen Perkins 2001 | 166 Pages | ISBN: 0745317286 | PDF | 4 MB The decline of magic is generally discussed in the context of the rise of scientific knowledge and the spread of education. In this original critique, Maureen Perkins challenges such interpretations and argues that the nineteenth-century marginalisation of вЂsuperstition’ is part of a social history of time management. Perkins summarises the development of a sense of British temporal superiority and tackles enduring questions of colonialisation and class from the unusual angle of beliefs about time. She relates differing concepts of time to colonial discourse, particularly in relation to gypsies and Australian Aborigines, and to the development of national identity in calendar illustrations. She surveys technological developments in the calculation of time, and assesses the role of popular beliefs in astrology, books of fate, and prophetic dreaming. This fascinating study reveals how the increasing importance of accurate measurement of time in the modern world led to campaigns against the fatalism and apathy which popular practices, such as fortune-telling, supposedly encouraged. The Realism of Piero della Francesca (Visual Culture in Early Modernity) by Joost Keizer English | September 25, 2017 | ISBN: 1472461312, 0367359731 | PDF | 166 pages | 13.2 MB The fifteenth-century Italian artist Piero della Francesca painted a familiar world. Roads wind through hilly landscapes, run past farms, sheds, barns, and villages. This is the world in which Piero lived. At the same time, Piero's paintings depict a world that is distant. The subjects of his pictures are often Christian and that means that their setting is the Holy Land, a place Piero had never visited.

The Physics of the Z and W Bosons By Roberto Tenchini, Claudio Verzegnassi 2007 | 436 Pages | ISBN: 9812707026 | PDF | 5 MB This book describes the memorable theoretical work that motivated the construction of the electron positron accelerators at CERN and SLAC, and the monumental experimental effort that led to a verification of the main theoretical expectations at these laboratories and at Fermilab. The aim is to provide a description of the theoretical work, as well as a synthesis of the experimental effort, which makes interesting reading for both theorists and experimentalists. In particular, the experimental measurements, discussed in the second part of the book, are systematically related to the theoretical quantities discussed in the first. The topics still to be investigated, unsolved problems, and the perspectives at future giant accelerators conclude this fascinating text. Contents: The Standard Model of Electroweak Interactions; Z Physics at Tree Level; Z Physics at One Loop for Final Leptonic States; Z Physics at One Loop for Final Hadronic States; Accelerators and Detectors for Z and W Physics; The Z Lineshape; Z Decays to Heavy Quarks; Asymmetries at the Z Pole; Electroweak Measurements with W Bosons; The Top Quark and Its Mass; The Search for the Higgs Boson and Tests of the Electroweak Interaction; Conclusions and Perspectives.
