Soft cover. Zustand: As New. Nothing prepared Murray Laurence for India when he first travelled through the country in the 1970s. His first impressions were of its 'surpassing weirdness' but it soon cast a spell on him, and for the next forty years he kept returning to India over and over again. His early journeys in the crowded third-class compartments of slow trains or in rickety buses to obscure towns and villages in the great Indian hinterland often led to strange encounters and travel disasters. Honey-tongued tricksters assailed him, bizarre locals and foreigners tried to explain the country to him, pompous officials waylaid him with impenetrable assertions and mystifying rules, and a myriad other picaresque entanglements with outrageous characters ensured that every trip he made was memorable. In all the chaos and quirkiness that surrounded him, the one thing he could always count on was the spontaneous warmth and generosity of Indians which often revealed itself in surprising circumstances. Closely observed, stylishly written, and very funny, Subcontinental Drift is an unforgettable tribute to India and its people.

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1910. First edition. lviii, 785pp., 15 black and white plates, 3 further plates consisting of coloured maps, and 75 black and white text figures (including maps). This is the first of a publication consisting of six volumes, two of text and four of maps, and gives and account of the work done, of the observations recorded, and of most of the results obtained, during an investigation into the bathymetry of the fresh-water lochs or lakes of Scotland between the years 1897 and 1909. Many of these observations and the results were published from time to time in scientific journals, while other appear for the first time. Volume I consists for the most part of new matter, and includes numerous articles dealing with the general results of the researches from the topographical, geological, physical, chemical and biological points of view, a comparison of Scottish lakes with lakes in other parts of the world, and various theoretical considerations. The volume also contains an extensive bibliography of books and special papers referring to lakes. The book is bound in the original half leather over brown cloth covered boards with gold titling and four raised bands on the spine and gold titling on the front board. The case of the book is in very good condition with light shelf wear to the boards and a little rubbing to the leather on the corner tips. The contents are tight and clean with no inscription. PLEASE NOTE: This is a heavy book and extra postage may be required for delivery outside the UK.

Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 376 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The papers collected here are those selected for presentation at the Eighth IFIP Conference on Engineering for Human-Computer Interaction (EHCI 2001) held in Toronto, Canada in May 2001. The conference is organized by the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 2.7 (13.4) for Interface User Engineering, Rick Kazman being the conference chair, Nicholas Graham and Philippe Palanque being the chairs of the program committee. The conference was co-located with ICSE 2001 and co-sponsored by ACM. The aim of the IFIP working group is to investigate the nature, concepts, and construction of user interfaces for software systems. The group's scope is: ¿ to develop user interfaces based on knowledge of system and user behavior; ¿ to develop frameworks for reasoning about interactive systems; and ¿ to develop engineering models for user interfaces. Every three years, the working group holds a working conference. The Seventh one was held September 14-18 1998 in Heraklion, Greece. This year, we innovated by organizing a regular conference held over three days.
