 Dunstan Brown, Andrew Hippisley, "Network Morphology: A Defaults-based Theory of Word Structure" English | 2012 | ISBN: 0511794347 | PDF | pages: 348 | 2.5 mb Morphology is particularly challenging, because it is pervaded by irregularity and idiosyncrasy. This book is a study of word structure using a specific theoretical framework known as 'Network Morphology'. It describes the systems of rules which determine the structure of words by construing irregularity as a matter of degree, using examples from a diverse range of languages and phenomena to illustrate. Many languages share common word building strategies and many diverge in interesting ways. These strategies can be understood by distinguishing different notions of 'default'. The Network Morphology philosophy promotes the use of computational implementation to check theories. The accompanying website provides the computer coded version of the Network Morphology model of word structure for readers to test, customize and develop. This book will be a valuable contribution to the fields of linguistic typology and morphology and will be welcomed by researchers and graduate students in these areas.  Names for the Sea: Strangers in Iceland by Sarah Moss English | May 14, 2013 | ISBN: 1619021226 | True EPUB | 368 pages | 1 MB A memoir of a family's year living in Reykjavik that "captures the fierce beauty of the Arctic landscape" (Booklist).  Museums and the Interpretation of Visual Culture (Museum Meanings) By Eilean Hooper-Greenhill 2000 | 216 Pages | ISBN: 0415086337 | PDF | 35 MB This is a multi-disciplinary study that adopts an innovative and original approach to a highly topical question, that of meaning-making in museums, focusing its attention on pedagogy and visual culture.This work explores such questions as: How and why is it that museums select and arrange artefacts, shape knowledge, construct a view? How do museums produce values? How do active audiences make meaning from what they experience in museums? This stimulating book provokes debate and discussion on these topics and puts forward the idea of a new museum - the post-museum, which will challenge the familiar modernist museum. A must for students and professionals in the field.  Murach s C++ Programming English | 2018 | ISBN: 1943872279 | 802 Pages | PDF | 106 MB Murach's top authors have finally tackled C++ programming, rethinking the whole approach. So this book takes advantage of the modern techniques to make it easier to learn C++ than ever before. It's organized in a logical way that gets you off to a fast start with a practical subset of today's C++, and then builds out your coding and OOP skills to the professional level. With that foundation in place, it also covers older techniques so you'll be able to maintain the vast amount of legacy code that's out there, as well as work with embedded systems that don't support the newer techniques.  Eitan Altman, Konstantin Avrachenkov, Francesco De Pellegrini, "Multilevel Strategic Interaction Game Models for Complex Networks" English | 2019 | ISBN: 3030244547, 3030244571 | PDF | pages: 315 | 8.3 mb This book provides a state-of-the-art overview on the dynamics and coevolution in multi-level strategic interaction games. As such it summarizes the results of the European CONGAS project, which developed new mathematical models and tools for the analysis, prediction and control of dynamical processes in systems possessing a rich multi-level structure and a web of interwoven interactions among elements with autonomous decision-making capabilities.  Paul Cantor, "Most Dope: The Extraordinary Life of Mac Miller" English | 2022 | ISBN: 1419748009, 1419764004 | 304 pages | EPUB | 1.7 MB The first biography of rapper Mac Miller, the Pittsburgh cult favorite-turned-rap superstar who touched the lives of millions before tragically passing away at the age of 26-now in paperback

Alessandro Molina, "Modern Python Standard Library Cookbook: Over 100 recipes to fully leverage the features of the standard library in Python" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1788830822 | EPUB | pages: 366 | 1.3 mb Build optimized applications in Python by smartly implementing the standard library  Michael Moorcock, "Metatemporal Detective" English | 2007 | ISBN:1591025966 | 370 pages | EPUB | 1.4 MB Seaton Begg and his constant companion, pathologist Dr "Taffy" Sinclair, both head the secret British Home Office section of the Metatemporal Investigation Department - an organization whose function is understood only by the most high-ranking government people around the world - and a number of powerful criminals. Begg's cases cover a multitude of crimes in dozens of alternate worlds, generally where transport is run by electricity, where the internal combustion engine is unknown, and where giant airships are the chief form of international carrier. He investigates the murder of English Prime Minister "Lady Ratchet," the kidnaping of the king of a country taken over by a totalitarian regime, and the death of Geli Raubel, Adolf Hitler's mistress. Other adventures take him to a wild west where "the Masked Buckaroo" is tracking down a mysterious red-eyed Apache known as the White Wolf; to 1960s' Chicago where a girl has been killed in a sordid disco; and to an independent state of Texas controlled by neocon Christians with oily (and bloody) hands. He visits Paris, where he links up with his French colleagues of the Sûreté du Temps Perdu. In several cases the fanatical Adolf Hitler is his opponent, but his arch-enemy is the mysterious black sword wielding aristocrat known as Zenith the Albino, a drug-dependent, charismatic exile from a distant realm he once ruled. In each story the Metatemporal Detectives' cases take them to worlds at once like and unlike our own, sometimes at odds with and sometimes in league with the beautiful adventuresses Mrs. Una Persson or Lady Rosie von Bek. At last Begg and Sinclair come face to face with their nemesis on the moonbeam roads which cross between the universes, where the great Eternal Balance itself is threatened with destruction and from which only the luckiest and most daring of metatemporal adventurers will return. These fast-paced mysteries pay homage to Moorcock's many literary enthusiasms for authors as diverse as Clarence E. Mulford, Dashiell Hammett, Georges Simenon, and his boyhood hero, Sexton Blake. |
