Vincent Pizzuto, "Contemplating Christ: The Gospels and the Interior Life" English | ISBN: 0814647057 | 2018 | 228 pages | EPUB | 819 KB The incarnation has made mystics of us all. What if we read the gospels as if that were true? In his book Contemplating Christ,Vincent Pizzuto offers an exploration of the interior life for modern contemplatives that is as beautiful as it is compelling. With an emphasis on the gospels and Christian mystical tradition, his book explores ancient themes in new and surprising ways. Drawing on his rich experience as an academic and priest, Pizzuto gradually unfolds the Christian mystery of deification to which the whole of biblical revelation and the Christian contemplative life are ordered: through the incarnation, we have all been made "other Christs" in the world.  Constituent Power: Law, Popular Rule and Politics By Matilda Arvidsson (editor), Leila Brännström (editor), Panu Minkkinen (editor) 2020 | 232 Pages | ISBN: 1474454976 | PDF | 2 MB With a strong focus on constitutional law, this book examines the legal as well as the political power of 'the people' in constitutional democracies. Bringing together an international range of contributors from the USA, Latin America, the UK and continental Europe, it explores the complex relationship between constitutional democracy and 'the people' from the angles of constitutional law, legal theory, political theory, and history. Contributors explore this relationship through the lens of radical democracy, engaging with the work of key figures such as Hannah Arendt, Carl Schmitt, Claude Lefort, and Jacques Rancière.  Conflict Management and Intercultural Communication English | 2023 | ISBN: 1032181214 | 367 Pages | PDF (True) | 8 MB Conflict management and harmony building are two key issues of intercultural communication research and merit particular attention in the globally interconnected world. In the expanded second edition, the book explores the effective ways to manage intercultural conflict and develop intercultural harmony, and takes an interdisciplinary approach to address the two issues.  Concise Guide to Numerical Algorithmics: The Foundations and Spirit of Scientific Computing English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031217616 | 170 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 8 MB Numerical Algorithmic Science and Engineering (NAS&E), or more compactly, Numerical Algorithmics, is the theoretical and empirical study and the practical implementation and application of algorithms for solving finite-dimensional problems of a numeric nature. The variables of such problems are either discrete-valued, or continuous over the reals, or, and as is often the case, a combination of the two, and they may or may not have an underlying network/graph structure. This re-emerging discipline of numerical algorithmics within computer science is the counterpart of the now well-established discipline of numerical analysis within mathematics, where the latter's emphasis is on infinite-dimensional, continuous numerical problems and their finite-dimensional, continuous approximates.  Lihua Liu, "Communicating with the World" English | ISBN: 1032406771 | 2022 | 256 pages | PDF | 4 MB This book analyses the creation and dissemination of discourse in China while examining how its media and the people interact and communicate with the rest of the world. It explores the interplay between language, meanings, social practices, culture and politics in the processes of discourse generation.  Elissa Foster, "Communicating at the End of Life: Finding Magic in the Mundane" English | 2006 | pages: 264 | ISBN: 0805855661, 080585567X | PDF | 4,6 mb This enlightening volume provides first-hand perspectives and ethnographic research on communication at the end of life, a topic that has gone largely understudied in communication literature. Author Elissa Foster's own experiences as a volunteer hospice caregiver form the basis of the book. Communicating at the End of Life recounts the stories of Foster and six other volunteers and their communicative experiences with dying patients, using communication theory and research findings to identify insights on the relationships they form throughout the process. What unfolds is a scholarly examination of a subject that is significant to every individual at some point in the life process.  Combinatorial and Additive Number Theory V: CANT, New York, USA, 2021 by Melvyn B. Nathanson English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 290 Pages | ISBN : 3031107950 | 28.9 MB This proceedings volume, the fifth in a series from the Combinatorial and Additive Number Theory (CANT) conferences, is based on talks from the 19th annual workshop, held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Organized every year since 2003 by the New York Number Theory Seminar at the CUNY Graduate Center, the workshops survey state-of-the-art open problems in combinatorial and additive number theory and related parts of mathematics. The CANT 2021 meeting featured over a hundred speakers from North and South America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, and was the largest CANT conference in terms of the number of both lectures and participants.  Collaborative Approaches for Cyber Security in Cyber-Physical Systems English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031160878 | 234 Pages | PDF (True) | 7 MB This book describes cyber-security issues underpinning several cyber-physical systems and several application domains, proposing a common perspective able to collect similarities as well as depict divergences and specific solution methods. Special attention is given to those approaches and technologies that unleash the power of collaboration among stakeholders, in a field based often developed in isolation and segregation of information. |
