Turok's Tribe: A Sequel to Turok's Gift
ISBN: 9780595483624 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A SEQUEL TO "TUROK'S GIFT" For ten years the United States had been producing air, sea, and ground vehicles using the star propulsion system invented by John Greenberg. The new vehicles were superior that it gave the U.S, an overwhelming military advantage. During the U.S. build up, the Russian KGB had been frantically trying to uncover the secrets behind John's propulsion invention. Their failure was largely a result of John's, and his friend Emily's, interference. The Russians had a sudden reversal of fortune when they agreed to join the U.S. led mission to explore the universe. John...

In addition to his active revolutionary service against the Russian czar and the Polish government, Goldstein's work earned him almost legendary hero status for harassed Jews.

The Astronomy of Levi Ben Gerson (1288-1344): A Critical Edition of Chapters 1-20 with Translation and Commentary
ISBN: 9781461385714 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. It would seem that S. Munk was the first modern scholar to draw attention to the significance of Levi ben Gerson's Astronomy, surely the most original work on astronomy written in Hebrew in the Middle Ages. Munk (1859, p. 500) called for a specialist to undertake a serious study of this work, but there was little response to his plea in the succeeding century. Indeed, this is the first edition of the Hebrew text of any part of Levi's Astronomy but for the table of contents (Renan, 1893, pp. 624-32), and the poems celebrating the invention of the Jacob Staff that appear in chapter 9...

Universal Aspects of Scientific Practice: Commitment, Methodology, and Technique
ISBN: 9783031416989 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book provides a unique contribution to philosophy of science from the perspective of the practice of science. It focuses on processes that generate scientific knowledge and seeks general and universal features that characterize scientific practice; features that are inherent to the practice of science. Science is an activity, and the scientist is an agent who pursues some practice, which in one way or another engages evidence. In science, claims to knowledge are typically supported by argument that engages evidence at some point in explanation, in prediction, or indeed in any mode of...

Children and Work: Study of Socialization
ISBN: 9780878552856 / Angielski / Twarda / 1979 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What do children know about work, careers, and related topics? What is the pattern of growth in values, attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge? Using quantitative and anecdotal evidence gathered from interviewing over 900 grade-school students in five New Jersey communities, the authors analyze childhood socialization to the concept of work. Existing literature on this topic focuses on the critical years of oc-cupational choice. But Goldstein and Oldham strongly suggest that much of the child's work-related development has already occurred prior to entry into secondary school, and that...

The Astronomical Tables of Giovanni Bianchini
ISBN: 9789004176157 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Alfonsine Tables became the main computing tool for astronomers for about 250 years, from their compilation in Toledo ca. 1272 to the edition in 1551 of new tables based on Copernicus's astronomical models. It consisted of a set of astronomical tables which, over time, was presented in many different formats. Giovanni Bianchini (d. after 1469), an astronomer active in Ferrara, Italy, was among the few scholars of that extended period to compile a coherent and insightful set based on the Alfonsine Tables. His tables, described and analyzed here for the first time, played a remarkable role...

From Summetria to Symmetry: The Making of a Revolutionary Scientific Concept
ISBN: 9789048178841 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Many literary critics seem to think that an hypothesis about obscure and remote questions of history can be refuted by a simple demand for the production of more evidence than in fact exists. The demand is as easy to make as it is impossible to satisfy. But the true test of an hypothesis, if it cannot be shown to con?ict with known truths, is the number of facts that it correlates and explains. Francis M. Cornford 1914] 1934, 220. It was in the autumn of 1997 that the research project leading to this publication began. One of us GH], while a visiting fellow at the Center for Philosophy of...

Essays on Medieval Computational Astronomy
ISBN: 9789004281745 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the Middle Ages and early modern times tables were a most successful and economical way to present mathematical procedures and astronomical models and to facilitate computations. Before the sixteenth century astronomical models introduced by Ptolemy in Antiquity were rarely challenged, and innovation consisted in elaborating new methods for calculating planetary positions and other celestial phenomena. Essays on Medieval Computational Astronomy includes twelve articles that focus on astronomical tables, offering many examples where the meaning and purpose of such tables has been...

Twenty Years with the Jewish Labor Bund: A Memoir of Interwar Poland
ISBN: 9781557537492 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Bernard Goldstein's memoir describes a hard world of taverns, toughs, thieves, and prostitutes; of slaughterhouse workers, handcart porters, and wagon drivers; and of fist-and gunfights with everyone from anti-Semites and Communists to hostile police, which is to say that it depicts a totally different view of life in prewar Poland than the one usually portrayed. As such, the book offers a corrective view in the form of social history, one that commands attention and demands respect for the vitality and activism of the generation of Polish Jews so brutally annihilated by the barbarism of the...

A Survey of European Astronomical Tables in the Late Middle Ages
ISBN: 9789004230583 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A Survey of European Astronomical Tables in the Late Middle Ages is a first attempt to classify and illustrate the numerous astronomical tables compiled from about the 10th century to the early 16th century in the Latin West. The compilation of astronomical tables was a major and dynamic intellectual enterprise. These tables respond to a wide variety of astronomical problems and computational needs, and contain a large number of ingenious solutions proposed by astronomers over the centuries. In the absence of algebraic notation and mathematical graphing techniques, a table was often...
