Paleontologists such as Georges Cuvier and Richard Owen were heralded as scientific virtuosos, sometimes even veritable wizards, capable of resurrecting the denizens of an ancient past from a mere glance at a fragmentary bone. Such extraordinary feats of predictive reasoning relied on the law of correlation, which proposed that each element of an animal corresponds mutually with each of the others, so that a carnivorous tooth must be accompanied by a certain kind of jawbone, neck, stomach, limbs, and feet. ![]() Sex Museums: The Politics and Performance of Display by Jennifer Tyburczy English | January 11, 2016 | ISBN: 022631510X, 022631524X | True EPUB | 296 pages | 3 MB All museums are sex museums. In Sex Museums, Jennifer Tyburczy takes a hard look at the formation of Western sexuality-particularly how categories of sexual normalcy and perversity are formed-and asks what role museums have played in using display as a technique for disciplining sexuality. Most museum exhibits, she argues, assume that white, patriarchal heterosexuality and traditional structures of intimacy, gender, and race represent national sexual culture for their visitors. Sex Museums illuminates the history of such heteronormativity at most museums and proposes alternative approaches for the future of public display projects, while also offering the reader curatorial tactics-what she calls queer curatorship-for exhibiting diverse sexualities in the twenty-first century. ![]() Setting Plato Straight: Translating Ancient Sexuality in the Renaissance by Todd W. Reeser English | December 28, 2015 | ISBN: 022630700X | True EPUB | 416 pages | 2.3 MB When we talk of platonic love or relationships today, we mean something very different from what Plato meant. For this, we have fifteenth and sixteenth-century European humanists to thank. As these scholars-most of them Catholic-read, digested, and translated Plato, they found themselves faced with a fundamental problem: how to be faithful to the text yet not propagate pederasty or homosexuality. ![]() Sense the Real Change Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811948836 | 340 pages | True PDF,EPUB | 87.69 MB This book features selected papers presented at the 20th International Conference on Near Infrared Spectroscopy.

It covers epitaxial growth processes for GaAs- and GaN-based quantum dots and quantum wells, describes the fundamental optical, electronic, and vibronic properties of nanomaterials, and addresses the design and realization of various nanophotonic devices. These include energy-efficient and high-speed vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and ultra-small metal-cavity nano-lasers for applications in multi-terabus systems; silicon photonic I/O engines based on the hybrid integration of VCSELs for highly efficient chip-to-chip communication; electrically driven quantum key systems based on q-bit and entangled photon emitters and their implementation in real information networks; and AlGaN-based deep UV laser diodes for applications in medical diagnostics, gas sensing, spectroscopy, and 3D printing. ![]() Security and Resilience in Cyber-Physical Systems: Detection, Estimation and Control English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030971651 | 637 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 48 MB This book discusses the latest advances in cyber-physical security and resilience of cyber-physical systems, including cyber-attack detection, isolation, situation awareness, resilient estimation and resilient control under attack. It presents both theoretical results and important applications of the methods. ![]() Secret Key Cryptography: Ciphers, from Simple to Unbreakable English | 2022 | ISBN: 1633439798 | 225 Pages | EPUB | 11 MB Explore the fascinating and rich world of Secret Key cryptography! This book provides practical methods for encrypting messages, an interesting and entertaining historical perspective, and an incredible collection of ciphers and codes―including 30 unbreakable methods. ![]() Scarecrows of Chivalry: English Masculinities after Empire by Praseeda Gopinath English | April 10, 2013 | ISBN: 0813933811, 081393382X | True EPUB | 280 pages | 0.6 MB Exploring the fate of the ideal of the English gentleman once the empire he was meant to embody declined, Praseeda Gopinath argues that the stylization of English masculinity became the central theme, focus, and conceit for many literary texts that represented the "condition of Britain" in the 1930s and the immediate postwar era. ![]() Tom Jacobs, "Saturn Returns: Thinking Astrologically" English | 2010 | pages: 202 | ISBN: 1451598688 | EPUB | 0,1 mb Everyone faces the challenging invitations of the planet Saturn at key times during their lives. The planet of hard work, structure, discipline, and authority asks us to grow up and make of our lives a long-term work that will make a difference in the world. Responding to its invitations with ease and grace requires understand certain things and being willing to change and grow. This books looks at Saturn in the astrological birth chart and what each of the first two returns (ages 29 1/2 and 59) have in store for us. Included are explanations of the aspects in the natal chart between Saturn and other planets framed in terms of what each Saturn return will ask us to do. |
