Edward W. Soja, "Postmodern Geographies: The Reassertion of Space in Critical Social Theory" English | 1989 | ISBN: 0860919366 | 266 pages | PDF | 11.4 MB Written by one of America's foremost geographers, Postmodern Geographies contests the tendency, still dominant in most social science, to reduce human geography to a reflective mirror, or, as Marx called it, an "unnecessary complication." Beginning with a powerful critique of historicism and its constraining effects on the geographical imagination, Edward Soja builds on the work of Foucault, Berger, Giddens, Berman, Jameson and, above all, Henri Lefebvre, to argue for a historical and geographical materialism, a radical rethinking of the dialectics of space, time and social being.
D. Kaneff, P. Leonard, "Post-Socialist Peasant?: Rural and Urban Constructions of Identity in Eastern Europe, East Africa and the Former Soviet Union" English | 2001 | ISBN: 0333793390 | 234 pages | PDF | 26.9 MB During the past decade, life in post-socialist states has been fraught with instability and conflict. This book focuses on changing rural-urban relations - and growing divisions between them - in the context of the reforms. Contributions to this volume explore responses to capitalist-oriented policies and reasons for rural disenfranchisement. The work takes an ethnographic approach to exploring how 'global' processes engage with local, rural concerns in the post-socialist world. Poems and Prose from the Old English By Professor Alexandra H. Olsen, Professor Burton Raffel 1998 | 252 Pages | ISBN: 0300069952 | PDF | 8 MB The shipping service took longer than I expected because I live in California and the book came from New York and I really needed it before the first week of school. I order this book about a week before the quarter started again.When it came in, I was half way through done with reading this book because I had borrowed a copy from a friend. BUT when it came in, it came in more than perfect condition. I bought it used, but it hardly looked like anyone ever cracked it open. I would definitely buy from them again, but next time, it would be two weeks earlier so I can get it on time.

Planning the Good Community By Jill Grant 2005 | 296 Pages | ISBN: 0415700752 | PDF | 3 MB An examination ofnew urban approaches both in theory and in practice. Taking a critical look at how new urbanism has lived up to its ideals, the author asks whether new urban approaches offer a viable path to creating good communities. With examples drawn principally from North America, Europe and Japan, Planning the Good Community explores new urban approaches in a wide range of settings. It compares the movement for urban renaissance in Europe with the New Urbanism of the United States and Canada, and asks whether the concerns that drive today's planning theory - issues like power, democracy, spatial patterns and globalisation- receive adequate attention in new urban approaches. The issue of aesthetics is also raised, as the author questions whether communities must be more than just attractive in order to be good. With the benefit of twenty years' hindsight and a world-wide perspective, this book offers the reader unparalleled insight as well as a rigorous and considered critical analysis.
Planning Europe's Capital Cities: Aspects of Nineteenth-Century Urban Development by Thomas Hall English | ISBN: 0419172904 | 1997 | PDF | 479 pages | 11,3 mb Examines the planning process of fifteen European cities and addresses questions such as, when and why did planning begin and what problems was it meant to solve?

Ross Taylor, "Planetary Crusts " English | ISBN: 0521841860 | 2008 | 402 pages | PDF | 4 MB This is the first book ever published to explain how and why solid planets and satellites develop crusts. Written by two leading authorities on the subject, it presents a geochemical and geological survey of the crusts of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, the asteroid Vesta, and several satellites such as Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. After describing how solar system bodies are formed, the authors compare the different planetary crusts and discuss current controversies on the subject. They introduce the theory of stochastic processes dominating crustal development, and debate the possibility of Earth-like planets existing elsewhere in the cosmos. Extensively referenced and annotated, this book presents an up-to-date survey of the scientific problems of crustal development, and is a key reference for researchers and students in geology, geochemistry, planetary science, astrobiology, and astronomy.

Messenger, "Photovoltaic Systems Engineering Ed 4" English | ISBN: 1498772773 | 2017 | 536 pages | PDF | 8 MB The primary purpose of PV Systems Engineering is to provide a comprehensive set of PV knowledge and understanding tools for the design, installation, commissioning, inspection, and operation of PV systems. During recent years in the United States, more PV capacity was installed than any other electrical generation source. In addition to practical system information, this new edition includes explanation of the basic physical principles upon which the technology is based and a consideration of the environmental and economic impact of the technology. The material covers all phases of PV systems from basic sunlight parameters to system commissioning and simulation, as well as economic and environmental impact of PV. With homework problems included in each chapter and numerous design examples of real systems, the book provides the reader with consistent opportunities to apply the information to real-world scenarios. |
