Castles, Battles, and Bombs: How Economics Explains Military History
ISBN: 9780226071633 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Castles, Battles, and Bombs" reconsiders key episodes of military history from the point of view of economics with dramatically insightful results. For example, when looked at as a question of sheer cost, the building of castles in the High Middle Ages seems almost inevitable: though stunningly expensive, a strong castle was far cheaper to maintain than a standing army. The authors also reexamine the strategic bombing of Germany in World War II and provide new insights into France s decision to develop nuclear weapons. Drawing on these examples and more, Brauer and Van Tuyll suggest...

Arms Trade and Economic Development: Theory, Policy and Cases in Arms Trade Offsets
ISBN: 9780415500166 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Countries that spend scarce resources to import arms from abroad often require arms sellers to 'reinvest' part or all of the proceeds back into the arms-importing country. These so-called 'arms trade offsets' are therefore thought to enhance domestic economic development. But does this process actually succeed? This book examines the theory and policy applications of arms trade offsets and looks at more than a dozen case studies drawn from across Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The chapters, based on original research and published here for the first time, are all written by leading...

Human Pose Estimation with Implicit Shape Models
ISBN: 9783731501848 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This work presents a new approach for estimating 3D human poses based on monocular camera information only. For this, the Implicit Shape Model is augmented by new voting strategies that allow to localize 2D anatomical landmarks in the image. The actual 3D pose estimation is then formulated as a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) where projected 3D pose hypotheses are compared with the generated landmark vote distributions.

War and Nature: The Environmental Consequences of War in a Globalized World
ISBN: 9780759112070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The inherent dangers of war zones constrain even the most ardent researchers, with the consequence that little has been known for certain about the effects of war on stable environments. War and Nature sifts through the available data from past wars to evaluate the actual impact that combat has on natural surroundings. Examining conflicts of various kinds--the long war in tropical Vietnam, the relatively brief and highly technical wars in the Persian Gulf, and various civil wars in Africa and South-Central Asia fought with small arms--Brauer asks whether differences in technology, location,...
