 Henry Jacoby, "Game of Thrones and Philosophy: Logic Cuts Deeper Than Swords" English | ISBN: 1118161998 | 2012 | 320 pages | EPUB | 829 KB An in-depth look at the philosophical issues behind HBO's Game of Thrones television series and the books that inspired it  John N. Mordeson, "Fuzzy Mathematics: An Introduction for Engineers and Scientists Ed 2" English | ISBN: 3790814202 | 2001 | 324 pages | PDF | 7 MB In the mid-1960's I had the pleasure of attending a talk by Lotfi Zadeh at which he presented some of his basic (and at the time, recent) work on fuzzy sets. Lotfi's algebra of fuzzy subsets of a set struck me as very nice; in fact, as a graduate student in the mid-1950's, I had suggested similar ideas about continuous-truth-valued propositional calculus (inffor "and", sup for "or") to my advisor, but he didn't go for it (and in fact, confused it with the foundations of probability theory), so I ended up writing a thesis in a more conventional area of mathematics (differential algebra). I especially enjoyed Lotfi's discussion of fuzzy convexity; I remember talking to him about possible ways of extending this work, but I didn't pursue this at the time. I have elsewhere told the story of how, when I saw C. L. Chang's 1968 paper on fuzzy topological spaces, I was impelled to try my hand at fuzzi fying algebra. This led to my 1971 paper "Fuzzy groups", which became the starting point of an entire literature on fuzzy algebraic structures. In 1974 King-Sun Fu invited me to speak at a U. S. -Japan seminar on Fuzzy Sets and their Applications, which was to be held that summer in Berkeley.  Further Adventures of a Grumpy Old Rock Star by Rick Wakeman, Martin Roach English | 2010 | ISBN: 1848091761 | 288 Pages | ePUB | 1.43 MB  Furniture Workshop: A Woodworker's Guide by Kevin Ley English | 2005 | ISBN: 1861083750 | 128 pages | PDF | 101 MB From his popular articles in Furniture and Cabinetmaking and The Router magazines, Kevin Ley has compiled an essential reference with everything a furniture-maker needs to know. Filled with color photos, exploded diagrams, and cutaway drawings, as well as a down-to-earth technical advice section that covers setting up a workshop and choosing every type of tool, it offers an array of appealing home furniture projects. A beautiful oak corner cupboard features gracefully curved display shelves. The drop-front desk has plenty of drawers-and 12 secret compartments. Based on an original by William Morris, the Arts and Crafts chair is a true design classic. Every project is well-illustrated and beautifully explained.  Lauralee Sherwood, "Fundamentals of Physiology: A Human Perspective Ed 3" English | ISBN: 0534466974 | 2005 | 768 pages | PDF | 29 MB FUNDAMENTALS OF PHYSIOLOGY, Third Edition, is based on Lauralee Sherwood's best selling Fifth Edition of HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY: FROM CELLS TO SYSTEMS. While both texts cover the same key topics in a current, engaging, and clinically relevant manner, FUNDAMENTALS OF PHYSIOLOGY is briefer, lower in level, and requires less of a background in chemistry, physics, and math than its sister text. Essential content is organized around the central theme of homeostasis, as demonstrated by the system-specific homeostatic model that opens each chapter, as well as the "Focus on Homeostasis" that completes each chapter. New to this edition are process-oriented figures, created to aid today's visual learners. These figures include step-by-step descriptions summarizing and integrating various aspects of essential concepts. Another noteworthy addition is the comparative and early introduction of "Principles of Neural and Hormonal Communication"-a NEW Chapter 4. This edition also showcases an emphasis on real-life experiences, using analogies as well as new "Clinical Note" icons, which flag clinically relevant material.
 Fundamentals of Physics II: Electromagnetism, Optics, and Quantum Mechanics by R. Shankar 2020 | ISBN: 0300243782 | English | 680 pages | EPUB | 28 MB A beloved introductory physics textbook, now including exercises and an answer key, accessibly explains electromagnetism, optics, and quantum mechanics  Functional Statistics: Outliers Detection and Quality Control by Javier Martínez Torres English | PDF | 2020 | 150 Pages | ISBN : 3039439634 | 13.7 MB Functional analysis, the branch that lies between mathematical analysis and statistics, has many applications in the field of engineering and processes. Thus, this book presents several applications carried out from this perspective, as well as various works of a theoretical nature that take a further step so that researchers can use these models with high precision.  Francisco de Paula Brito: A Black Publisher in Imperial Brazil by Rodrigo Camargo de Godoi English | January 10th, 2021 | ISBN: 0826500161, 082650017X | 398 pages | True EPUB | 20.97 MB Francisco de Paula Brito is a biography of a merchant, printer, bookseller, and publisher who lived in Rio de Janeiro from his birth in 1809 until his death in 1861. That period was key to the history of Brazil, because it coincided with the relocation of the Portuguese Court from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro (1808); the dawning of Brazilian Independence (1822) and the formation of the nation-state; the development of the press and of Brazilian literature; the expansion and elimination of the trans-Atlantic slave trade; and the growth of Rio de Janeiro's population and the coffee economy. Nevertheless, although it covers five generations of Paula Brito's family-men and women who left slavery in the eighteenth century-this book focuses on its protagonist's activities between the 1830s and 1850s.
