Overview: Compares a wide range of o-o languages, and their underlying conceptsI was extremely surprised to learn that this book was so well received; I was even more surprised when a second edition was proposed. I had realised that there was a need for a book such as this but had not thought that the need was as great; I really wrote the book for myself, in order better to organise my thoughts on object-oriented languages and better to understand them. For the second edition, I have found and corrected mistakes and have added a completely new chapter on the C# language. The chapter on mixed-

Overview: Discusses the variability in the nature and in the range of disagreements among peers.Offers a broader definition of epistemic peerhood that can accommodate cases of real-life worldview disagreement.D.This book presents an original discussion and analysis of epistemic peer disagreement. It reviews a wide range of cases from the literature, and extends the definition of epistemic peerhood ?with respect to the current one, to account for the actual variability found in real-world examples. The book offers a number of arguments supporting the variability in the nature and in the range o

Overview: Novel friction model enables reader to build friction simulations with accuracy.For readers from mechatronics, the book reveals the surface physics underlying friction.The reader can derive friction pTransient friction effects determine the behavior of a wide class of mechatronic systems. Classic examples are squealing brakes, stiction in robotic arms, or stick-slip in linear drives. To properly design and understand mechatronic systems of this type, good quantitative models of transient friction effects are of primary interest. The theory developed in this book approaches this probl

Overview: Quantum mechanics dates its anniversaries from 1925, the year when its first versions, matrix and wave mechanics, were born. The quan- tum itself had by that time reached the age of 25, having first seen the light of day on the eve of the nativity of the 20th century itself. Either shunned or completely unnoticed, the quantum seemed for a long time to be an illegitimate child. Even Max Planck himself, its own father, could not bring himself to accept his monstrous child until he was forced to do so -that is, until it became clear that the problems which were arising in physics could

Overview: Launches a new approach for understanding Stein’s experimental writing.Interprets vital texts in Stein’s work including poetry, plays, portraiture, and anti-narratives.Practices Stein’s radical episteThis book offers a bold critical method for reading Gertrude Stein’s work on its own terms by forgoing conventional explanation and adopting Stein’s radical approach to meaning and knowledge. Inspired by the immanence of landscape, both of Provence where she travelled in the 1920s and the spatial relations of landscape painting, Stein presents a new model of meaning whereby making sense

Overview: This groundbreaking work explores media scholar Sut Jhally‘s thesis that advertising functions as a religion in late capitalism and relates this to critical theological studies. Sheffield argues that advertising is not itself a religion, but that it contains religious dimensions - analogous to Durkheim‘s description of objects as totems.978-1-349-53545-3978-0-230-60140-6Series ISSN 2945-6355 Series E-ISSN 2945-6363

Overview: To understand recent developments in Eastern Europe requires a method of analysis that is capable of internalizing into a theoretical framework (i) the logical premises deduced from the costs of transactions and incentive structures generated by various institutions and (ii) the evidence for refutable implications of those premises. The economics of property rights is such a theory. It expands the scope of the ability of economic analysis to explain a wide range of institutional structures and provides empirical corroboration of its logical implications. The economics of property rig

Overview: Balanced and comprehensive overview of providing health care for the uninsured.Includes supplementary material: As Dr. Cullen’s chapter on information technology points out, what is required is not just a new electronic system that follows the patients, but a new language that creates and defines a system that can appropriately care for the patient. What we design for the complexities of caring for the medically underserved can serve as model for caring for everyone in this country. Many innovative, bold, and wonderful solutions have been developed as local/ regional models. As commu
