Music of the Common Tongue: Survival and Celebration in African American Music
ISBN: 9780819563576 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 509 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In clear and elegant prose, Music of the Common Tongue, first published in 1987, argues that by any reasonable reckoning of the function of music in human life the African American tradition, that which stems from the collision between African and European ways of doing music which occurred in the Americas and the Caribbean during and after slavery, is the major western music of the twentieth century. In showing why this is so, the author presents not only an account of African American music from its origins but also a more general consideration of the nature of the music act and of its...

Musicking: The Meanings of Performing and Listening
ISBN: 9780819522573 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Extending the inquiry of his early groundbreaking books, Christopher Small strikes at the heart of traditional studies of Western music by asserting that music is not a thing, but rather an activity. In this new book, Small outlines a theory of what he terms "musicking," a verb that encompasses all musical activity from composing to performing to listening to a Walkman to singing in the shower. Using Gregory Bateson's philosophy of mind and a Geertzian thick description of a typical concert in a typical symphony hall, Small demonstrates how musicking forms a ritual through which all the...

The Statistical Theory of Shape
ISBN: 9781461284734 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In general terms, the shape of an object, data set, or image can be de fined as the total of all information that is invariant under translations, rotations, and isotropic rescalings. Thus two objects can be said to have the same shape if they are similar in the sense of Euclidean geometry. For example, all equilateral triangles have the same shape, and so do all cubes. In applications, bodies rarely have exactly the same shape within measure ment error. In such cases the variation in shape can often be the subject of statistical analysis. The last decade has seen a considerable growth in...

Expansions and Asymptotics for Statistics
ISBN: 9781584885900 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 357 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Asymptotic methods provide important tools for approximating and analysing functions that arise in probability and statistics. Moreover, the conclusions of asymptotic analysis often supplement the conclusions obtained by numerical methods. Providing a broad toolkit of analytical methods, Expansions and Asymptotics for Statistics shows how asymptotics, when coupled with numerical methods, becomes a powerful way to acquire a deeper understanding of the techniques used in probability and statistics. The book first discusses the role of expansions and... Asymptotic methods provide important tools for approximating and analysing functions that arise in probability and statistics.

Italian Home for Children
ISBN: 9781531622688 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As it ravaged the world, the influenza epidemic of 1918 devastated Boston's congested North End and left hundreds of orphans in its wake. Touched by this crisis, a Roman Catholic priest and a group of Italian Americans founded the first home for Italian children in Massachusetts. Franciscan Sisters devoted 24 hours a day to providing the children with a safe, loving, and spiritual environment. In addition, the home provided educational support for its residents. Over time, the changing needs of children mandated that the agency change the nature of its services from custodial care to...

Functional Equations and How to Solve Them
ISBN: 9780387345390 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the years, a number of books have been written on the theory of functional equations. However, very little has been published which helps readers to solve functional equations in mathematics competitions and mathematical problem solving. This book fills that gap. The student who encounters a functional equation on a mathematics contest will need to investigate solutions to the equation by finding all solutions, or by showing that all solutions have a particular property. The emphasis here will be on the development of those tools which are most useful in assigning a family of...

The Christopher Small Reader
ISBN: 9780819576392 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Christopher Small Reader is the fourth and final book in Christopher Small's legacy as a composer, pianist, teacher, friend, provocateur, and influential outsider in classical music studies. It is at once a compendium of, a complement to, and an important addition to Small's prior books: Musicking; Music, Society, Education; and Music of the Common Tongue. The Christopher Small Reader brings previously published work, some of it available in disparate locations, together with key excerpts from his three books, and other writings that remained unpublished at his passing in 2011, making...

Music, Society, Education
ISBN: 9780819563071 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Cited by Soundpost as "remarkable and revolutionary" upon its publication in 1977, Music, Society, Education has become a classic in the study of music as a social force. Christopher Small sets out to examine the social implications of Western classical music, effects that until recently have been largely ignored or dismissed by most musicologists. He strives to view the Western musical tradition "through the mirror of these other musics Balinese and African] as it were from the outside, and in so doing to learn something of the inner unspoken nature of Western culture as a whole." As...

Numerical Methods for Nonlinear Estimating Equations
ISBN: 9780198506881 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Non linearity arises in statistical inference in various ways, with varying degrees of severity, as an obstacle to statistical analysis. More entrenched forms of nonlinearity often require intensive numerical methods to construct estimators, and the use of root search algorithms, or one-step estimators, is a standard method of solution. This book provides a comprehensive study of nonlinear estimating equations and artificial likelihood's for statistical inference. It provides extensive coverage and comparison of hill climbing algorithms, which when started at points of nonconcavity often have...

The Theory and Applications of Statistical Interference Functions
ISBN: 9780387967202 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This monograph arose out of a desire to develop an approach to statistical infer ence that would be both comprehensive in its treatment of statistical principles and sufficiently powerful to be applicable to a variety of important practical problems. In the latter category, the problems of inference for stochastic processes (which arise com monly in engineering and biological applications) come to mind. Classes of estimating functions seem to be promising in this respect. The monograph examines some of the consequences of extending standard concepts of ancillarity, sufficiency and complete...
