 Israel Scheffler, "Symbolic Worlds: Art, Science, Language, Ritual" English | ISBN: 0521564255 | | 228 pages | PDF | 6 MB In this important and broad-ranging book, Israel Scheffler explores the various ways in which the mind functions symbolically. This involves considering not only the worlds of the sciences and the arts, but also such activities as religious ritual and child's play. The book offers an integrated treatment of ambiguity and metaphor, analyses of play and ritual, and an extended discussion of the relations between scientific symbol systems and reality. What emerges is a picture of the basic symbol-forming character of the mind.  Sustainable Development Goals in Europe: A Geographical Approach by María Luisa De Lázaro Torres, Rafael De Miguel González English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 355 Pages | ISBN : 303121613X | 98.2 MB The aim of this book is to provide a synthesis of the newest research in Geography concerning the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's). Although the world is strongly interconnected, the majority of the chapters in this volume focus on Europe or the work of European researchers. Each chapter of this book focusses on one of the 17 SDG's providing in-depth knowledge from a geographical perspective, fostering comprehensive research on these global targets to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change.  Sergio Cecotti, "Supersymmetric Field Theories: Geometric Structures and Dualities" English | ISBN: 1107053811 | 2015 | 424 pages | PDF | 3 MB Adopting an elegant geometrical approach, this advanced pedagogical text describes deep and intuitive methods for understanding the subtle logic of supersymmetry while avoiding lengthy computations. The book describes how complex results and formulae obtained using other approaches can be significantly simplified when translated to a geometric setting. Introductory chapters describe geometric structures in field theory in the general case, while detailed later chapters address specific structures such as parallel tensor fields, G-structures, and isometry groups. The relationship between structures in supergravity and periodic maps of algebraic manifolds, Kodaira-Spencer theory, modularity, and the arithmetic properties of supergravity are also addressed. Relevant geometric concepts are introduced and described in detail, providing a self-contained toolkit of useful techniques, formulae and constructions. Covering all the material necessary for the application of supersymmetric field theories to fundamental physical questions, this is an outstanding resource for graduate students and researchers in theoretical physics.
 Structural Engineering: Models and Methods for Statics, Instability and Inelasticity by Adnan Ibrahimbegovic , Rosa-Adela Mejia-Nava English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 542 Pages | ISBN : 3031235916 | 65.1 MB This book presents a novel approach to the classical scientific discipline of Structural Engineering, which is inspired by numerous current applications from domains of Civil, Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering. The main goal of this book is to help with making the best choice between accuracy and efficiency, when it comes to building the most suitable structural models by practising engineers using modern computational tools available in commercial software products (SAP, FEAP, ANSYS ...) for which we have carried out many developments that have been become the main reference in the field.  Edmar Mednis, "Strategic Chess: Mastering the Closed Game " English | ISBN: 0486406172 | | 256 pages | PDF | 18 MB True chess mastery demands a thorough understanding of the game's opening nuances, and this guide by an International Grandmaster offers detailed, seldom-discussed insights into the real significance of the opening. As Mr. Mednis notes in the Preface, " ... if you know the strategic theme of your opening well, understand how to apply it in middlegame play, and if necessary can also make use of your knowledge in the thematic endgame to follow, then you will be a very successful tournament player."  Stoic Philosophy and the Control Problem of AI Technology: Caught in the Web (Values and Identities: Crossing Philosophical Borders) by Edward H.

 Startup CXO: A Field Guide to Scaling Up Your Company's Critical Functions and Teams English | 2021 | ISBN: 1119772575 | 582 Pages | EPUB (True) | 2 MB One of the greatest challenges for startup teams is scaling because usually there's not a blueprint to follow, people are learning their function as they go, and everyone is wearing multiple hats. There can be lots of trial and error, lots of missteps, and lots of valuable time and money squandered as companies scale. Matt Blumberg and his team understand the scaling challenges-they've been there, and it took them nearly 20 years to scale and achieve a successful exit. Along the way they learned what worked and what didn't work, and they share their lessons learned in Startup CXO.
