Forecast for D-Day: And the Weatherman Behind Ike's Greatest Gamble
ISBN: 9780762786633 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Monday, June 5, had long been planned for launching D-day, the start of the campaign to liberate Nazi-held Western Europe. Yet the fine weather leading up to the greatest invasion the world would ever see was deteriorating rapidly. Would it hold long enough for the bombers, the massed armada, and the soldiers to secure beachheads in Normandy? That was the question, and it was up to Ike's chief meteorologist, James Martin Stagg, to give him the answer. On the night of June 4, the weather hung on a knife's edge. The three weather bureaus advising Stagg the US Army Air Force, the Royal Navy, and...

Narrative of a Second Voyage in Search of a North-West Passage: And of a Residence in the Arctic Regions During the Years 1829-33
ISBN: 9781108050203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 848 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Polar explorer John Ross (1777 1856) sailed with William Edward Parry in 1818 to seek a North-West Passage from Baffin Bay. The attempt was unsuccessful, and Ross was widely blamed for its failure. In 1829 he set out on a privately funded expedition on the steamship Victory, accompanied by his nephew James Clark Ross, to try again, returning to England in late 1833. Using survival techniques learnt from the Inuit he befriended, Ross kept his crew healthy through four icebound winters. While the voyage once again failed to find a North-West Passage, it surveyed the Boothia Peninsula and a...

Linking Europe: Transport Policies and Politics in the European Union
ISBN: 9780275952488 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Long overlooked, transport is emerging as an important policy area for the European Union and is a growing source of political tension. This broad-based analysis of the European transport industry includes an in-depth examination of the four major modes: rail, road, air, and shipping, also the EU's growing cross-border transport links. Ross frames this discussion with a look at the role of transport in the overall European political economy--past, present, and future.

Thermodynamics and Fluctuations Far from Equilibrium
ISBN: 9783540745549 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 209 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Thermodynamics is one of the foundations of science. The subject has been developed for systems at equilibrium for the past 150 years. The story is di?erent for systems not at equilibrium, either time-dependent systems or systems in non-equilibrium stationary states; here much less has been done, even though the need for this subject has much wider applicability. We have been interested in, and studied, systems far from equilibrium for 40 years and present here some aspects of theory and experiments on three topics: Part I deals with formulation of thermodynamics of systems far from...

Determination of Complex Reaction Mechanisms: Analysis of Chemical, Biological, and Genetic Networks
ISBN: 9780195178685 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In a chemical system with many chemical species several questions can be asked: what species react with other species: in what temporal order: and with what results? These questions have been asked for over one hundred years about simple and complex chemical systems, and the answers constitute the macroscopic reaction mechanism. In Determination of Complex Reaction Mechanisms authors John Ross, Igor Schreiber, and Marcel Vlad present several systematic approaches for obtaining information on the causal connectivity of chemical species, on correlations of chemical species, on the...

Living Dangerously
ISBN: 9780738203218 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From cholesterol to cancer, asteroids to AIDS, we face more risks than our grandparents ever dreamed of. But most of us are 200 years behind the curve when it comes to making intelligent risk-based decisions: We refuse to fly, but don't wear seat belts in our far more dangerous cars. We panic about toxic waste dumps, but collectively smoke a billion cigarettes a year. In this entertaining and enlightening look at risk in the modern age, John Ross argues that the burgeoning science of risk assessment has given us powerful new tools to cope in a complex world, if we could only learn how to...

A Voyage of Discovery, Made Under the Orders of the Admiralty, in His Majesty's Ships Isabella and Alexander: For the Purpose of Exploring Baffin's Ba
ISBN: 9781108041522 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 542 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sir John Ross (1777 1856) was a Scottish naval officer and Arctic explorer. He joined the Royal Navy at the age of nine and distinguished himself during the Napoleonic Wars. In 1818, Ross was assigned to H.M.S. Isabella and commissioned to search for the North-West Passage. This book, published in 1819, describes the expedition, which was unsuccessful although it did discover new facts about Baffin Bay. Several of Ross's former officers disputed his account of the decision to turn back at Lancaster Sound, which he had mistakenly believed was impassable. The ensuing controversy affected the...

A Treatise on Navigation by Steam: Comprising a History of the Steam Engine
ISBN: 9781108062138 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Following distinguished service during the Napoleonic Wars, the Scottish naval officer and Arctic explorer Sir John Ross (1777 1856) embarked on an abortive expedition to discover the North-West Passage. The existence of the Croker mountains, which he claimed had blocked his path, was afterwards disputed and his reputation suffered. His 1819 account of that voyage has been reissued in the Cambridge Library Collection. Prior to setting out in a steam vessel on a second expedition, for which he would be knighted, Ross published the present work in 1828. Seeking to establish himself as an...
