Sojourns in Probability Theory and Statistical Physics - III: Interacting Particle Systems and Random Walks, A Festschrift for Charles M. Newman by Vladas Sidoravicius English | PDF | 2019 | 327 Pages | ISBN : 981150301X | 5.8 MB Charles M. (Chuck) Newman has been a leader in Probability Theory and Statistical Physics for nearly half a century. This three-volume set is a celebration of the far-reaching scientific impact of his work. It consists of articles by Chuck's collaborators and colleagues across a number of the fields to which he has made contributions of fundamental significance. This publication was conceived during a conference in 2016 at NYU Shanghai that coincided with Chuck`s 70th birthday.  Smart Robotics with LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor: Learn to play with the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor kit and build creative robots by Aaron Maurer  Anne D. Wallace, "Sisters and the English Household: Domesticity and Women's Autonomy in Nineteenth-Century English Literature " English | ISBN: 1783088451 | 2018 | 214 pages | PDF | 8 MB Sisters and the English Household revalues unmarried adult sisters in nineteenthcentury English literature as positive figures of legal and economic autonomy representing productive labor in the domestic space. As a crucial site of contested values, the adult unmarried sister carries the discursive weight of sustained public debates about ideals of domesticity in nineteenth-century England. Engaging scholarly histories of the family, and providing a detailed account of the 70-year Marriage with a Deceased Wife's Sister controversy, Anne Wallace traces an alternative domesticity anchored by adult sibling relations through Dorothy Wordsworth's journals; William Wordsworth's poetry; Mary Lamb's essay "On Needle-Work"; and novels by Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, Dinah Mulock Craik and George Eliot. Recognizing adult sibling relationships, and the figure of the adult unmarried sibling in the household, as primary and generative rather than contingent and dependent, and recognizing material economy and law as fundamental sources of sibling identity, Sisters and the English Household resets the conditions for literary critical discussions of sibling relations in nineteenth-century England.  Second World War Infantry Tactics: The European Theatre by Stephen Bull English | July 19, 2012 | ISBN: 1848840705 | EPUB | 224 pages | 10.2 MB The 'poor bloody infantry' do the dirty front-line work of war. It bears the brunt of the fighting and often suffers disproportionately in combat in comparison with the other armed forces. Yet the history of infantry tactics is too rarely studied and often misunderstood.  Claire Fanger, "Rewriting Magic: An Exegesis of the Visionary Autobiography of a Fourteenth-Century French Monk " English | ISBN: 0271066504 | 2015 | 232 pages | EPUB, PDF | 6 MB + 8 MB In Rewriting Magic, Claire Fanger explores a fourteenth-century text called The Flowers of Heavenly Teaching. Written by a Benedictine monk named John of Morigny, the work all but disappeared from the historical record, and it is only now coming to light again in multiple versions and copies. While John's book largely comprises an extended set of prayers for gaining knowledge, The Flowers of Heavenly Teaching is unusual among prayer books of its time because it includes a visionary autobiography with intimate information about the book's inspiration and composition. Through the window of this record, we witness how John reconstructs and reconsecrates a condemned liturgy for knowledge acquisition: the ars notoria of Solomon. John's work was the subject of intense criticism and public scandal, and his book was burned as heretical in 1323. The trauma of these experiences left its imprint on the book, but in unexpected and sometimes baffling ways. Fanger decodes this imprint even as she relays the narrative of how she learned to understand it. In engaging prose, she explores the twin processes of knowledge acquisition in John's visionary autobiography and her own work of discovery as she reconstructed the background to his extraordinary book. Fanger's approach to her subject exemplifies innovative historical inquiry, research, and methodology. Part theology, part historical anthropology, part biblio-memoir, Rewriting Magic relates a story that will have deep implications for the study of medieval life, monasticism, prayer, magic, and religion.

Renaissance State: The Unwritten Story of the Making of Maharashtra By Girish Kuber 2021 | ASIN : B08YPGNDWK | English | 303 pages | EPUB | 3.8 MB  Pauline Reid, "Reading by Design: The Visual Interfaces of the English Renaissance Book" English | ISBN: 1487500696 | 2019 | 304 pages | PDF | 13 MB Renaissance readers perceived the print book as both a thing and a medium - a thing that could be broken or reassembled, and a visual medium that had the power to reflect, transform, or deceive. At the same historical moment that print books remediated the visual and material structures of manuscript and oral rhetoric, the relationship between vision and perception was fundamentally called into question.  Rainbow in the Dark: The Autobiography by Ronnie James Dio, Mick Wall, Wendy Dio English | July 27th, 2021 | ISBN: 1642939749 | 264 pages | True EPUB | 67.42 MB The long-awaited autobiography by one of heavy metal's most revered icons, treasured vocalists, and front man for three legendary bands-Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and Dio. |
