Covered in Ink: Tattoos, Women and the Politics of the Body
ISBN: 9780814760000 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A small dolphin on the ankle, a black line on the lower back, a flower on the hip, or a child's name on the shoulder blade--among the women who make up the twenty percent of all adults in the USA who have tattoos, these are by far the most popular choices. Tattoos like these are cute, small, and can be easily hidden, and they fit right in with society's preconceived notions about what is 'gender appropriate' for women. But what about women who are heavily tattooed? Or women who visibly wear imagery, like skulls, that can be perceived as masculine or ugly when inked on their skin? Drawing on...

Parting the Mists: Discovering Japan and the Rise of National-Style Painting in Modern China
ISBN: 9780824829520 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Parting the Mists, Aida Yuen Wong makes a convincing argument that the forging of a national tradition in modern China was frequently pursued in association with rather than in rejection of Japan. The focus of her book is on Japan's integral role in the invention of national-style painting, or guohua, in early-twentieth-century China. Guohua, referring to brush paintings on traditional formats, is often misconstrued as a residual conservatism from the dynastic age that barricaded itself within classical traditions. Wong places this art form at the forefront of cross-cultural exchange....

Analogies at War: Korea, Munich, Dien Bien Phu, and the Vietnam Decisions of 1965
ISBN: 9780691025353 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From World War I to Operation Desert Storm, American policymakers have repeatedly invoked the "lessons of history" as they contemplated taking their nation to war. Do these historical analogies actually shape policy, or are they primarily tools of political justification? Yuen Foong Khong argues that leaders use analogies not merely to justify policies but also to perform specific cognitive and information-processing tasks essential to political decision-making. Khong identifies what these tasks are and shows how they can be used to explain the U.S. decision to intervene in Vietnam....

Barth's Theological Ontology of Holy Scripture
ISBN: 9781620329115 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Description: ""I was and I am an ordinary theologian, who does not have the Word of God at his disposal, but, at best, a 'Doctrine of the Word of God, '"" writes Karl Barth in the preface of Die christliche Dogmatik im Emtwurf. Properly appreciating the complex career of Barth's characterization of what Scripture is theologically can open up constructive lines of inquiry regarding his self-description as a theologian and reader of the Bible. By mining Barth's published and posthumous theological and exegetical writings and sermons, both well-known materials and understudied writings such as...

Practice of Bayesian Probability Theory in Geotechnical Engineering
ISBN: 9789811591075 / Angielski / Miękka / 2021 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book introduces systematically the application of Bayesian probabilistic approach in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. Four typical problems are analyzed by using Bayesian probabilistic approach, i.e., to model the effect of initial void ratio on the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) of unsaturated soil, to select the optimal model for the prediction of the creep behavior of soft soil under one-dimensional straining, to identify model parameters of soils and to select constitutive model of soils considering critical state concept. This book selects the simple...

Computational Fluid Dynamics in Fire Engineering : Theory, Modelling and Practice
ISBN: 9780750685894 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 532 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Fire and combustion presents a significant engineering challenge to mechanical, civil and dedicated fire engineers, as well as specialists in the process and chemical, safety, buildings and structural fields. We are reminded of the tragic outcomes of 'untenable' fire disasters such as at King's Cross underground station or Switzerland's St Gotthard tunnel. In these and many other cases, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is at the forefront of active research into unravelling the probable causes of fires and helping to design structures and systems to ensure that they are less likely in the...
