When World Views Collide: A Study in Imagination and Evolution
ISBN: 9780313254574 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 255 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Science fiction has evolved and diverged in many ways and moods. When World Views Collide is the third and final volume in a history of the genre that began with Foundations of Science Fiction and continued in Great Themes of Science Fiction.

Pierce presents each world view in science fiction on its own terms, as expressed in the works of its partisans. This final volume of the trilogy thus examines science...

Truth as Strange as Fiction
ISBN: 9781468023558 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book provides a unique glimpse into a life style of a family in the late 1800's. It becomes the truth that surpasses fiction, in the sense that this family is hardly representative. The book was birthed from genealogical research, and as such provides certain insights into the process of such research in general. The reader is involved in a real-life mystery surrounding a policy and approach of a government body - the Pension Board, and an individual's requests for a pension. But it expands past that - to a dysfunctional family and a tangled web. I would say this book will intrigue:...

Flexible Design: Revisionary Poetics in Blake's Vala or The Four Zoas
ISBN: 9780773516823 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Using the idea of a "flexible design," John Pierce examines the ways in which Blake's mythology and his poem possess a flexibility that allows for significant change to characters, symbols, and poetic techniques within a previously constructed framework. Pierce traces how, in the process of revision, Blake experimented with characterization, increased the importance of Christian symbolism, and developed a mode of narrative presentation controlled less by chronological sequence than by the use of thematic juxtaposition and typology.

Foundations of Science Fiction: A Study in Imagination and Evolution
ISBN: 9780313254550 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This important contribution to the study of science fiction explores the origins of the basic literary traditions of the genre. Thematic, rather than chronological, organization sets this work apart from previous analyses.

Introduction to Communication Science and Systems
ISBN: 9781489918895 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 394 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. There are many valuable and useful books on electrical communication (References 1-5 are some examples), but they have certain disadvantages for the beginner. The more advanced books present some things in a basic way, but they are very narrow for an introduction to communica- tion. The introductory books are broader but still narrow by our stan- dards. Further, they often pick things out of thin air rather than derive them. This book is aimed at giving the beginner a basic understanding of a wide range of topics which are essential in communication systems. These include antennas and...

Foley, a Democratic representative from the traditionally Republican region of eastern Washington, served in Congress from 1964 to 1994. In 1989 he became the first Speaker of the US House of Representatives from a district west of Texas. His thirty years of experience as a Democrat representing a Republican-leaning district contributed to his strong commitment to bipartisanship and institution building. His speakership came to an end when the Newt Gingrich-led “Republican Revolution” ushered in an era of ideological polarization and fierce partisanship. Tom Foley: The Man in...
