It addresses recent formulations and debates regarding the status of regional languages of South Asia in relation to English. The authors explore the range of meanings the term has assumed and trace a history of contestation since the colonial age. They contend that though the 'vernacular' in South Asia has, since the nineteenth century, often operated as a hegemonic category relegating the languages thus designated to an inferior status, those languages (and other cultural formations labelled as 'vernacular') have also received empowering impulses and vested with qualities like groundedness and strength. The book highlights the need for a critical discussion of the notion of the 'vernacular' in the context of the ongoing rise of Anglophonia in South Asia as a whole and post-liberalisation India in particular. ![]() Free Download The Station: Athos: Treasures and Men (Eland Classics) by Robert Byron English | September 30, 2024 | ISBN: 1780602219, 9781780602370 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 3.6 MB Follows three young men's 1927 journey through Mount Athos, exploring monasteries, Greek Orthodoxy, and Byzantine culture. ![]() Free Download Sing C. Chew, "The Southeast Asia Connection: Trade and Polities in the Eurasian World Economy, 500 BC-AD 500" English | ISBN: 1785337882 | 2018 | 188 pages | EPUB | 2 MB The contribution of Southeast Asia to the world economy (during the late prehistoric and early historic periods) has not received much attention. It has often been viewed as a region of peripheral entrepôts, especially in the early centuries of the current era. Recent archaeological evidence revealed the existence of established and productive polities in Southeast Asia in the early parts of the historic period and earlier. This book recalibrates these interactions of Southeast Asia with other parts of the world economy, and gives the region its due instead of treating it as little more than of marginal interest. ![]() Free Download Stanley Parker, "The Sociology of Leisure " English | ISBN: 1032100427 | 2021 | 158 pages | EPUB | 301 KB In the 1970s the subject of leisure was attracting interest among both social scientists and people concerned with developing recreation policies. A relative newcomer to the sociological scene at the time, leisure was beginning to compete in research effort and theory-building with the more established fields of sociology. As well as making an academic contribution, this book, originally published in 1976, provided practitioners (such as planners, administrators and managers) with an up-to-date and comprehensive review of social research finding over the whole field of leisure. ![]() Free Download Onofrio Romano, "The Sociology of Knowledge in a Time of Crisis: Challenging the Phantom of Liberty " English | ISBN: 0415720362 | 2014 | 220 pages | EPUB | 578 KB The speed of social dynamics has overtaken the speed of thought. Adopting a dialectical perspective towards reality, social theory has always detected faults in the dominant social pattern, foreseeing crises and outlining in advance the features of new social models. Thought has always moved faster than reality and its ruling models, ensuring a dynamic equilibrium during modernity. Despite any dramatic social crisis, theory has always provided exit routes. The tragedy of current crisis lies in the fact that its social implications are exasperated by the absence of alternative views. This book identifies the causes of this mismatch between thought and reality, and illustrates a way out. ![]() Free Download Mohd.Aslam Bhat, "The Sociology of Central Asian Youth: Choice, Constraint, Risk " English | ISBN: 0815380607 | 2018 | 174 pages | EPUB | 766 KB At the onset of the twenty-first century, 'youth studies' emerged as a distinct field of inquisition. Discourses and debates in the field have since become more sophisticated, and the spectrum of analysis has likewise broadened. However, it is striking to note how little reference is made to young people of peripheral regions like Central Asia. ![]() Free Download The Rough Guide to Peru: Travel Guide with eBook (Rough Guides Main Series) by Rough Guides English | July 16, 2024 | ISBN: 1839059982 | 520 pages | MOBI | 69 Mb This Peru guidebook is perfect for independent travellers planning a longer trip.

Hartwig, Léonce B. Crump Jr., Warren Bird English | June 20, 2023 | ISBN: 1514005689 | 160 pages | PDF | 10 Mb Want to unleash the "remarkable" in your team? ![]() Free Download The Reasoning of Quantum Mechanics: Operator Theory and the Harmonic Oscillator English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031705092 | 108 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 16 MB This Second Edition presents and details the process of quantization of a classical mechanical system in a relevant physical system, the harmonic oscillator. As mathematics and physics are inextricably interwoven in quantum theories, the author takes a mathematically rigorous approach. The book focuses on properties of the quantum system that can be observed and measured, and the author then interprets the resulting theory. The book covers methods of operator theory in the formulation of the theory as well as in the calculation of the consequences of the theory. The author addresses the mathematical foundation of the probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics through the spectral theorems for (densely-defined and linear) self-adjoint operators in complex Hilbert spaces. The book also explains the measurement process and questions the challenges of the wave function, the EPR paradox, and Bell's inequality. ![]() Free Download The Philosopher's Stone for Sustainability: Proceedings of the 4th CIRP International Conference on Industrial Product-Service Systems, Tokyo, Japan, November 8th - 9th, 2012 By Hiroyuki Yoshikawa (auth.), Yoshiki Shimomura, Koji Kimita (eds.) 2013 | 538 Pages | ISBN: 3642328466 | PDF | 21 MB Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPS2), which is defined as "an integrated industrial product and service offering that delivers value in use," has expanded rapidly over the last decade. IPS2 has allowed us to achieve both high added value and high productivity and has enriched our QOL by improving the performance of products and services. We are now struggling with many awkward issues related to sustainability, but IPS2 is expected to be the "philosopher's stone" for solving these issues.Following the pattern of conferences held in Cranfield in 2009, Linköping in 2010, and Braunschweig in 2011, the fourth International CIRP Conference on Industrial Product-Service Systems, held on November 8-9, 2012, in Tokyo, will cover various aspects of IPS2. Topics planned for this year's conference reflect the latest IPS2 information in both the natural sciences and humanities and include case studies from various industries. IPS2 is still a relatively new field, so it is important to keep track of the entire context in order to promote more cross-sectional cooperation between multimodal fields and disciplines. The fourth International CIRP Conference on Industrial Product-Service Systems will serve as a vital platform for such collaborations and the discussion of new scientific ideas. |
