Nationalizing the Russian Empire: The Campaign against Enemy Aliens during World War I By Eric Lohr
2003 | 245 Pages | ISBN: 0674010418 | PDF | 8 MB
n this compelling study of the treatment of "enemy" minorities in the Russian Empire during the First World War, Eric Lohr uncovers a dramatic story of mass deportations, purges, expropriations, and popular violence.A campaign initially aimed at restricting foreign citizens rapidly spun out of control. It swept up Russian subjects of German, Jewish, and Muslim backgrounds and drove roughly a million civilians from one part of the empire to another, resulting in one of the largest cases of forced migration in history to that time. Because foreigners and diaspora minorities were prominent among entrepreneurial and landowning elites, the campaign against them also became an explosive element in class and national tensions on the eve of the 1917 revolutions.During the war, the imperial regime dropped its ambivalence about Russian nationalism and embraced unprecedented and radical policies that "nationalized" the economy, the land, and even the population. The core idea of the campaign--that the country needed to free itself from the domination of foreigners, internal enemies, and the exploitative world economic system--later became a central feature of the Soviet revolutionary model.Based on extensive archival research, much in newly available sources, Nationalizing the Russian Empire is an important contribution to the study of empire and nationalism, the Russian Revolution, and ethnic cleansing.

Modeling and Reasoning with Bayesian Networks By Adnan Darwiche
2009 | 562 Pages | ISBN: 0521884381 | PDF | 11 MB
Having taken Professor Darwiche's course on Bayesian Networks, I was excited to get my hands on this book, which is a culmination of the notes from that class and his research on the subject.This is an excellent text, with very clear explanations and step by step descriptions in pseudo code of the important algorithms in the text. The first few chapters lay the probabilistic foundations needed for understanding Bayesian Networks and the conditional independences such networks encode. Chapter 5 gives examples in several different domains of using Bayesian Networks to model different systems and answer queries about them. After this, the book gets into the meat of its primary focus, efficient probabilistic inference in the context of Bayesian Networks. It lays out various algorithms for exact inference using jointrees or recursive conditioning, and the complexity and trade-offs of the different approaches.It further details further refinements that can reduce networks in some cases for even better performance.After this, it details approximate inference techniques including sampling and belief propagation.Chapter 14 on belief propagation is especially good, with its discussions on the semantics of belief propagation, generalized belief propagation, and an alternative formulation of generalized belief propagation edge deletion belief propagation.The last few chapters also delve into learning Bayesian Networks structure and parameters. All in all, this book will give an in depth knowledge of exact and approximate inference in Bayesian networks and a good overview of learning and applying these models to various domains.

Medea, Magic, and Modernity in France By Amy Wygant
2007 | 228 Pages | ISBN: 0754659240 | PDF | 2 MB
Bringing together the previously disparate fields of historical witchcraft, reception history, poetics, and psychoanalysis, this innovative study shows how the glamour of the historical witch, a spell that she cast, was set on a course, over a span of three hundred years from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries, to become a generally broadcast glamour of appearance. Something that a woman does, that is, became something that she has. The antique heroine Medea, witch and barbarian, infamous poisoner, infanticide, regicide, scourge of philanderers, and indefatigable traveller, serves as the vehicle of this development. Revived on the stage of modernity by La Peruse in the sixteenth century, Corneille in the seventeenth, and the operatic composer Cherubini in the eighteenth, her stagecraft and her witchcraft combine, author Amy Wygant argues, to stun her audience into identifying with her magic and making it their own. In contrast to previous studies which have relied upon contemporary printed sources in order to gauge audience participation in and reaction to early modern theater, Wygant argues that psychoanalytic thought about the behaviour of groups can be brought to bear on the question of ''what happened'' when the early modern witch was staged. This cross-disciplinary study reveals the surprising early modern trajectory of our contemporary obsession with magic. Medea figures the movement of culture in history, and in the mirror of the witch on the stage, a mirror both appealing and appalling, our own cultural performances are reflected. It concludes with an analysis of Diderot's claim that the historical process itself is magical, and with the moment in Revolutionary France when the slight and fragile body of the golden-throated singer, Julie-Angelique Scio, became a Medea for modernity: not a witch or a child-murderess, but, as all the press reviews insist, a woman.

John Mackay: Silver King in the Gilded Age (Wilber S. Shepperson Series in Nevada History By Michael J. Makley
2009 | 297 Pages | ISBN: 0874177707 | PDF | 2 MB
This is a new biography of the most successful miner in the West. From the early 1870s until his death in 1902, John Mackay was among the richest men in the world, and he was without doubt the wealthiest man to emerge from Nevada's fabulous Comstock Lode. Beginning life as a poor Irish immigrant, he early developed a strong work ethic that distinguished him for the rest of his life. He came west to seek his fortune in the California Gold Rush, then moved on to Virginia City, Nevada, where he operated silver mines and discovered the 'Big Bonanza' that was three times as rich as any other Comstock strike. After making a fortune, he transferred his energies to banking and communications. John Mackay offers new insight into the life and achievements of this remarkable man. Particularly, it sets Mackay into the broader context of the Gilded Age, an era of robber barons and corruption, rapidly advancing technology, national and international capitalism, and flagrant displays of newfound wealth. Even in this milieu, he stood out, not only for his contributions to Nevada and mining history but also for fighting the consolidation and venality of corporate power in the Gilded Age. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Mackay was respected for his ethical conduct and generous philanthropy, and his unassuming lifestyle endeared him to less-affluent contemporaries. While his wife pursued social status in Europe, maintaining palatial estates in Paris and London, Mackay mostly remained in the U.S., tending to his many business concerns and shunning publicity. This fascinating new biography contributes significantly to our understanding of the development of the Far West and of business and society in the Gilded Age.
