English | 2021 | ISBN: 1912691817 | 94 pages | True PDF EPUB | 5.16 MB It is important to point out that these essays are about character types; it is not to suggest that all borderlines, narcissists or manic depressives are the same. Everyone is an individual and are who they are for many different reasons. What they have in common is a typical relation between their subjectivity and the world they inhabit. In other words, Christopher Bollas has identified the axioms that these individuals share. Following a discussion of the features of each type, the axioms are delivered in the character's own voice. By placing ourselves within their own logic, we can begin to identify and empathise with them. At the root of all character disorders there is mental pain and each disorder is an intelligent attempt to solve an existential problem. If the clinician can grasp their specific intelligence and help the analysand to understand this, then a natural process of healing can begin. Three Characters is a masterclass based on decades of lectures presented to psychoanalysts, analytical psychologists, and psychotherapists, and is a must-read for all psychoanalytic enthusiasts.

English | 2021 | ISBN: 0810143313 | 224 pages | True EPUB | 5.99 MB Knowledge emerges from contexts, which are shaped by people's experiences. The varied essays inThinking the US South: Contemporary Philosophy from Southern Perspectivesdemonstrate that Southern identities, borders, and practices play an important but unacknowledged role in ethical, political, emotional, and global issues connected to knowledge production. Not merely one geographical region among others, the US South is sometimes a fantasy and other times a nightmare, but it is always a prominent component of the American national imaginary. In connection with the Global North and Global South, the US South provides a valuable perspective from which to explore race, class, gender, and other inter- and intra-American differences. The result is a fresh look at how identity is constituted; the role of place, ancestors, and belonging in identity formation; the impact of regional differences on what counts as political resistance; the ways that affect and emotional labor circulate; practices of boundary policing, deportation, and mourning; issues of disability and slowness; racial and other forms of suffering; and above all, the question of whether and how doing philosophy changes when done from Southern standpoints. Examining racist tropes, Indigenous land claims, Black Southern philosophical perspectives, migrant labor, and more, this incisive anthology makes clear that roots matter.

The latest innovations in the technology of the Rankine, Stirling, Brayton, Kalina, Goswami and OTEC Rankine cycles are analysed. Concepts and applications are introduced through clear diagrams, and case studies, end-of-chapter summaries and practical examples are presented to equip the reader to engage practically with the subject. An invaluable reference for researchers and advanced students in the field of renewable and sustainable power, the book also provides useful supplementary reading for advanced courses in renewable energies and energy systems. Part of IOP Series in Renewable and Sustainable Power.  English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030918165 | 308 pages | True PDF EPUB | 44.94 MB This book gives a complete overview of the roll stamping process of metal forming. This fundamentally new technique features an integrated local loading of the plastic deformation zone of the workpiece, simultaneously combining the die forging operation and local deformation of the deformation zone by rotating rollers or drive rolls. The book presents the basics of the theory behind roll stamping, delivering a complete technical analysis including the key results of mathematical modeling studies and a discussion of methodologies for designing novel roll stamping techniques. The aim of the new metal forming processes proposed in the book is directed toward the production of competitive equipment for fabrication of various mechanical parts having enhanced materials and physical properties in combination with a low cost of production and maintenance. This book is an ideal resource for any student or practicing engineer working with the roll stamping process.  English | 2021 | ISBN: 0367414732 | 203 pages | True PDF | 10.44 MB This book provides a collection of papers from the Ninth Workshop on Computing: Theory and Practice, WCTP 2019 devoted to theoretical and practical approaches to computation, which was organized by four top universities in Japan and the Philippines: Tokyo Institute of Technology, Osaka University, the University of the Philippines Diliman, and De La Salle University. The proceedings provide a broad overview of recent research trends in computer science research in Asia, particularly in these two countries. The papers included in the proceedings focus on both theoretical and practical aspects of computations, such as programming language theory, modeling of software systems, applications of machine learning, empathic computing, and various applications of information technology.

English | 2022 | ISBN: 0231200463 , 0231200471 | 318 pages | True EPUB | 4.48 MB A metropolis with a population of about 11 million, Wuhan sits at the crossroads of China. It was here that in the last days of 2019, the first reports of a mysterious new form of pneumonia emerged. Before long, an abrupt and unprecedented lockdown was declared-the first of many such responses to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic around the world. |
