Molecules containing Three or Four Carbon Atoms By K. Kuchitsu, E. Hirota, D. A. Ramsay (auth.), K. Kuchitsu, M. Tanimoto, N. Vogt (eds.) 2007 | 187 Pages | ISBN: 3540447393 | PDF | 28 MB Volume II/28 is a supplemented and revised edition of the preceding volumes II/7, II/15, II/21, II/23 and II/25, containing up to date information on the geometric parameters (internuclear distances, bond angles, dihedral angles of internal rotation etc.) of free inorganic and organic polyatomic molecules. All experimental methods for the determination of quantitative structural data of free molecules have been considered: microwave, infrared, Raman, electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy as well as electron diffraction. The data obtained by these methods have been critically evaluated and compiled. They are presented separately for each molecule, together with a computer-drawn schematic figure of the structure and the original literature. Molecules containing Five or More Carbon Atoms By K.

Mathematics and the Craft of Thought in the Anglo-Dutch Renaissance (Routledge Studies in Renaissance and Early Modern Worlds of Knowledge) by Eleanor Chan 2021 | ISBN: 0367345323 | English | 240 pages | EPUB, PDF | 17 + 21 MB The development of a coherent, cohesive visual system of mathematics brought about a seminal shift in approaches towards abstract thinking in western Europe. Vernacular translations of Euclid's Elements made these new and developing approaches available to a far broader readership than had previously been possible. Scholarship has explored the way that the language of mathematics leaked into the literary cultures of England and the Low Countries, but until now the role of visual metaphors of making and shaping in the establishment of mathematics as a practical tool has gone unexplored. Mathematics and the Craft of Thought sheds light on the remarkable culture shift surrounding the vernacular language translations of Euclid, and the geometrical imaginary that they sought to create. It shows how the visual language of early modern European geometry was constructed by borrowing and quoting from contemporary visual culture. The verbal and visual language of this form of mathematics, far from being simply immaterial, was designed to tantalize with material connotations. This book argues that, in a very real sense, practical geometry in this period was built out of craft metaphors.

Hollingsworth M.D., "Mammography and Early Breast Cancer Detection: How Screening Saves Lives" English | 2016 | pages: 260 | ISBN: 1476666105 | EPUB | 2,7 mb Early detection of breast cancer is critical. Yet efforts to cut back on mammography or even stop screening altogether have been gaining ground in the medical community's decades-long debate over testing and treatment. It is not a purely scientific debate-back-room politics and hidden agendas have played as much a role as clinical data, leading to some surprising conclusions. Written by one of the first physicians in the country to specialize in breast cancer risk assessment, genetic testing and high-risk interventions, this book focuses on the screening controversy and explains the arguments used on both sides. The author covers the history of screening, from the first mobile unit on the streets of Manhattan to the cutting edge imaging technology of today.
Making the Global Economy Work for Everyone: Lessons of Sustainability from the Tech Revolution and the Pandemic by Marco Magnani English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 219 Pages | ISBN : 3030920836 | 2.9 MB The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed the weaknesses of globalisation, exposed the fragility of the current growth model, and accelerated the ongoing tech revolution. This book is an in-depth analysis of these weaknesses and fragilities in the context of sustainability. Economist Marco Magnani suggests the possibility of pursuing a more balanced, environmentally and socially sustainable growth while defusing today's apocalyptic alarmism about climate change, energy and demographic constraints, and the future of work. To make the global economy work for everyone. Claude Lefort, Michael B. Smith, "Machiavelli in the Making" English | 2012 | pages: 532 | ISBN: 0810124386, 0810124378 | PDF | 60,0 mb Machiavelli in the Making is both a novel interpretation of the Florentine's work and a critical document for understanding influential French scholar and public intellectual Claude Lefort's later writings on democracy and totalitarianism. Lefort extricates Machiavelli's thought from the dominant interpretations of him as the founder of "objective" political science, which, having liberated itself from the religious and moralizing tendencies of medieval political reflection, attempts to arrive at a realistic discourse on the operations of raw power. Lefort ultimately finds that Machiavelli's discourse opens the "place of the political" which had previously been occupied by theology and morality. |
