Lee Mun Wah, Dr. William A. Howe, "Let's Get Real: What People of Color Can't Say and Whites Won't Ask About Racism" English | 2011 | ASIN: B007F1S73O, B01MRY0XER | EPUB | pages: 283 | 0.5 mb This new book by Lee Mun Wah explores the questions people of color and whites are afraid to ask of each other and the answers that we are afraid to hear. Over 150 folks from all over the country participated in 'breaking the silence' about what separates and divides us as a nation, in our workplaces, and as friends. The goal of this book is to initiate an environment that will support an open, intimate, and honest dialogue for all of us regarding the issues of racism-what makes it safe or unsafe to share our truths, how denial erodes our willingness to trust, and the myriad of ways that we use to shield ourselves from being hurt or held accountable. Chapters in Section One, for People of Color, include: Telling the Truth About Racism to Whites, A Question of Safety, Personal Journeys, and Unlearning Racism: What It Will Take. Section Two for Whites includes: Telling the Truth, Working with Other Whites, Working with People of Color, Personal Stories, What is Needed to Unlearn Racism, and What It Will Take.

Large Deviations for Markov Chains English | 2022 | ISBN: 1316511898 | 262 Pages | PDF | 3 MB This book studies the large deviations for empirical measures and vector-valued additive functionals of Markov chains with general state space. Under suitable recurrence conditions, the ergodic theorem for additive functionals of a Markov chain asserts the almost sure convergence of the averages of a real or vector-valued function of the chain to the mean of the function with respect to the invariant distribution. In the case of empirical measures, the ergodic theorem states the almost sure convergence in a suitable sense to the invariant distribution. The large deviation theorems provide precise asymptotic estimates at logarithmic level of the probabilities of deviating from the preponderant behavior asserted by the ergodic theorems.
Debbie Felton, "Landscapes of Dread in Classical Antiquity: Negative Emotion in Natural and Constructed Spaces" English | 2018 | pages: 317 | ISBN: 1138104957, 0367591200 | PDF | 7,5 mb Over the last two decades, research in cultural geography and landscape studies has influenced many humanities fields, including Classics, and has increasingly drawn our attention to the importance of spaces and their contexts, both geographical and social: how spaces are described by language, what spaces are used for by individuals and communities, and how language, use, and the passage of time invest spaces with meaning. In addition to this 'spatial' turn in scholarship, recent years have also seen an 'emotive' turn - an increased interest in the study of emotion in literature.
