Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1st ed., 1st printing ; 111 pages : illustrations ; 30 cm ISBN 9780814625736, 0814625738 OCLC 41619735 illustrated boards ; no dustjacket ; Collaborating as writers, designers, photographers, and editors, friends of Joseph O'Connell offer a glimpse of his creativity in Divine Favor, a photographic collection of this master-artist's work Introducing Joseph O'Connell's principal works to a broader public, Divine Favor contains photographs of his work as well as background information and reflections. Readers will find a sketch of O'Connell's life and work in the "Chronology of Principal Events in the Life and Work of Joseph O'Connell," an affectionate introduction to the life of Joe as artist and friend in J. F. Powers "Dear Joe" and a tribute to the man and artist in Garrison Keillor's "He Was in the Arts, You Know". Other writers present reflections throughout the book on their favorite works, representing the hundreds of viewers who admire a favorite print or sculpture. Influenced as a young artist by Eric Gill's liturgical art, O'Connell produced many works inspired by religious themes. He had an unsettling ability to put familiar scriptural images, like Christ the King or Judas Iscariot, into a contemporary scene where we prefer not to see them. Working as a printmaker and sculptor of wood, metal, and stone, O'Connell developed his own visual voice, a unique style--at once representational and stylized, simple and elegant--which distinguishes his work from the work of other twentieth-century artists. He honed his skills as a sculptor, using no power tools, but only chisels and hammers like those of the master-crafters who carved stone images on the great medieval cathedrals. ; Articles and reflections in Divine Favor are "Dear Joe," by J. F. Powers; "He Was in the Arts, You Know," by Garrison Keillor; "Unbecoming: A Look at 'Eve in the Baraque,'" by Mara Faulkner, OSB; "A Bead on Human Folly," by Hilary Thimmesh, OSB; "Jazz and the Coming of the Kingdom," by Mary Schaffer; "The Gift of Joe," by Rosemary Boyle Petters; "A Degree in Theology and Fine Art," by Philip Morsberger; "A Work in Progress," by Larry Schug; "The Moses Man," by Mary Willette Hughes; "Transformation of the Commonplace," by Alan Reed, OSB; "Joe's Questions," by Nancy Hynes, OSB; "The Tree of Life," by Mark Conway; "Tapping," by Dennis Frandrup, OSB; " A Meditation on Peter's Denial," by Mary Hynes-Berry; and "Chronology of Principal Events in the Life and Work of Joseph O'Connell." ; FINE.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. 335 pages. Oversized format. Modern color enhancement reveals rock art details previously unseen in recent centuries. An important book in the field of Arizona and Southern California Native rock art. A moderate crease to the back cover, and a few signs of usage: the interior pages are clean and unmarked, the binding is holding together just fine. A beautiful book production that I would guess the publishers lost money on and so it has not been reprinted. Unfortunately it is scarce now.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a clear understanding of the concept of context-aware machine learning including an automated rule-based framework within the broad area of data science and analytics, particularly, with the aim of data-driven intelligent decision making. Thus, we have bestowed a comprehensive study on this topic that explores multi-dimensional contexts in machine learning modeling, context discretization with time-series modeling, contextual rule discovery and predictive analytics, recent-pattern or rule-based behavior modeling, and their usefulness in various context-aware intelligent applications and services. The presented machine learning-based techniques can be employed in a wide range of real-world application areas ranging from personalized mobile services to security intelligence, highlighted in the book. As the interpretability of a rule-based system is high, the automation in discovering rules from contextual raw data can make this book more impactful for the applicationdevelopers as well as researchers. Overall, this book provides a good reference for both academia and industry people in the broad area of data science, machine learning, AI-Driven computing, human-centered computing and personalization, behavioral analytics, IoT and mobile applications, and cybersecurity intelligence.…
