Tony Benn
ISBN: 9780826456991 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For much of his half-century career in the House of Commons, Tony Benn has been the most loved and loathed man in British politics. He has been idolized by the left, and reviled with equal measure by the Westminster establishment, not least by New Labour. Once tipped to lead the Labour Party, Benn's growing disillusionment with what he regarded as the "democratic deficit" infecting politics, reinforced his resolve to continue playing the role he valued most, as "a good House of Commons Man."David Powell's fascinating new biography traces Tony Benn's extraordinary fifty year political career...

The Blood on Satan's Claw
ISBN: 9781800348349 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Widely regarded as one of the foundational 'Unholy Trinity' of folk horror film, The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971) has been comparatively over-shadowed, if not maligned, when compared to Witchfinder General (1968) and The Wicker Man (1973). While those horror bedfellows are now accepted as classics of British cinema, Piers Haggard's film remains undervalued, ironically so, given that it was Haggard who coined the term 'folk horror' in relation to his film. In this Devil's Advocate, David Evans-Powell explores the place of the film in the wider context of the folk horror sub-genre; its use of a...

A Generic Fault-Tolerant Architecture for Real-Time Dependable Systems
ISBN: 9781441948809 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The design of computer systems to be embedded in critical real-time applications is a complex task. Such systems must not only guarantee to meet hard real-time deadlines imposed by their physical environment, they must guarantee to do so dependably, despite both physical faults (in hardware) and design faults (in hardware or software). A fault-tolerance approach is mandatory for these guarantees to be commensurate with the safety and reliability requirements of many life- and mission-critical applications. This book explains the motivations and the results of a collaborative project', whose...

Nationhood and Identity : The British State Since 1800
ISBN: 9781860645167 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Britannia--the towering female with helmet and spear, and a symbol of the British isles--has been one of British history's most enduring icons. But who is she, and who does she represent? Who are the British? The Scots, Welsh, Irish, and English have been asking themselves these questions for hundreds of years. In this probing examination of these questions, Davis Powell charts the political evolution of the UK from the Act of Union between Great Britain and Ireland in 1800 to the late 20th-century debates over devolution to Scotland and Wales, the future of Northern Ireland, and Britain's...
