This is one of a new series about the master of classical architecture. Each volume in this eminently attractive series highlights the work of renowned architect of the past centuries. Packed with dazzling photographs of exteriors sand interiors, detailed plans and brief, comprehensive texts. Otto Koloman Wagner (13 July 1841 - 11 April 1918) was an Austrian architect, furniture designer and urban planner. He was a leading member of the Vienna Secession movement of architecture, founded in 1897, and the broader Art Nouveau movement. Many of his works are found in his native city of Vienna, and illustrate the rapid evolution of architecture during the period. His early works were inspired by classical architecture. By mid-1890s, he had already designed several buildings in what became known as the Vienna Secession style. Beginning in 1898, with his designs of Vienna Metro stations, his style became floral and Art Nouveau, with decoration by Koloman Moser. His later works, 1906 until his death in 1918, had geometric forms and minimal ornament, clearly expressing their function. They are considered predecessors to modern architecture. Otto Wagner (Penzing near Vienna 1841-died Vienna, 1918) studied in both Berlin and Vienna. He was put in charge of the general plan for Vienna, under the authority of the City Hall's Higher Committee for Construction. The principal objective was to set up a railway system and to control the Danube River. He was the mentor of Josef Hoffman and Josef Maria Olbrich. At the end of the century, during the Secession of Vienna, he worked on a number of projects, including houses for Linke Wienzeile, the Zeit telegraph office and the Postal Savings Bank (Postsparkassenamt). He was also the designer of the Steinhof Church and the second Wagner villa, among other buildings. Janos Kalmar (Photographer) (illustrator). …

This is part of the International Series of Monographs on Nuclear Energy, Division III. Biology., Volume I. This is a Pergamon Press book. This book was intended for medical students in higher educational institutions and for physicians. The main safeguard against radiation damage must be based on a precise and up-to-date knowledge of the nature of the radiations and of existing methods of dosage control. Among the contributors were: Yu. M. Shtukkenberg, N. N. Demin, P. D. Gorizontov, R. V. Petov, D. I. Zakutinskii, N. A. Kurshakov, I. S. Glazunov, E. F. Romantzev, and N. A. Krayevskii. The principal editor was honored through the naming of the Federal State Institution A.I. Burnazyan Federal Medical and Biophysical Center in Russia. Radiation therapy or radiotherapy, often abbreviated RT, RTx, or XRT, is therapy using ionizing radiation, generally as part of cancer treatment to control or kill malignant cells and normally delivered by a linear accelerator. Radiation therapy may be curative in a number of types of cancer if they are localized to one area of the body. It may also be used as part of adjuvant therapy, to prevent tumor recurrence after surgery to remove a primary malignant tumor (for example, early stages of breast cancer). Radiation therapy is synergistic with chemotherapy, and has been used before, during, and after chemotherapy in susceptible cancers. The subspecialty of oncology concerned with radiotherapy is called radiation oncology. Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.…

(Hosken, p. 75; SABIB 4, p. 460) "In contrast to earlier work of the same Dutch-Afrikaans nature, whose characteristics and pre-occupations were mainly Dutch, Tas's diary tends to reflect the atmosphere of his new country, and rigidity and stiffness have been reduced by a little of the South African sun. Tas often uses original, though sometimes rough, popular expressions. His criticism of social and religious authority is typical of the eighteenth-century effort to escape from restraint. What Tas wrote is important not only because it reflects the social and political conditions of an early Cape society, but because it reveals Tas's own personality and character. His diary makes him a gay and sociable person, and, especially, an organizer and leader. His dedicated ability was the real force that put W. A. van der Stel and his friends out of office." - DSAB II, pp. 730-1. …

Dieter Krüger is associate professor (privatdozent) of contemporary history at the Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg and historian at the Military History Research Institute (MGFA), Potsdam. David T. Zabecki (born 1947) is an American military historian, author and editor. Zabecki served in the U.S. Army both in the Vietnam War and in United States Army Europe in Germany attaining the rank of major general. Zabecki holds Ph.D.s in engineering and in military science. He is the author, editor and translator of several books on the military history of Germany, including World War I and World War II. While scholarship abounds on the diplomatic and security aspects of the Cold War, very little attention has been paid to military planning at the operational level. In Blueprints for Battle, experts from Russia, the United States, and Europe address this dearth by closely examining the military planning of NATO and Warsaw Pact member nations from the end of World War II to the beginning of détente. Informed by material from recently opened archives, this collection investigates the perceptions and actions of the rival coalitions, exploring the challenges presented by nuclear technology, examining how military commanders' perceptions changed from the 1950s to the 1960s, and discussing logistical coordination among allied states. The result is a detailed study that offers much-needed new perspectives on the military aspects of the early Cold War. …

DJ has some wear to top edge. Some damp impact at top fore-edge of some pages. Review slip laid in. This is one of the Sara F. Yoseloff Memorial Publications In Judaism and Jewish Affairs. Text is in English with some Hebrew. Includes List of Rabbinic References, Translator's Foreword, and Editor's Foreword. Book 1 covers Presuppositions in Aristotelian Natural Science and the Order of the Universe; Book 2 covers Basic Principles of the Faith; or Religious Law of the Jewish People; Book 3 covers Practical Philosophy (The Healing of the Soul). Also contains Hebrew Text of The Exalted Faith, Glossary, and Bibliography. Abraham ibn Daud was a Spanish-Jewish astronomer, historian, and philosopher; born at Cordoba, Spain about 1110; died in Toledo, Spain, according to common report, a martyr about 1180. He is sometimes known by the abbreviation Rabad I or Ravad I. Ibn Daud was the first to introduce the phase of Jewish philosophy which is generally attributed to Maimonides and which differs from former systems of philosophy mainly in its more thorough systematic form derived from Aristotle. Accordingly, Hasdai Crescas mentions Ibn Daud as the only Jewish philosopher among the predecessors of Maimonides. But having been completely overshadowed by Maimonides' Guide for the Perplexed, Abraham ibn Daud's Emunah Ramah ("Sublime Faith"), a work to which Maimonides himself was indebted for many valuable suggestions, received scant notice from later philosophers. The stated purpose of this book is to reconcile philosophy and religion and to solve the problem of human choice and determinism. This is the first work by a Jewish philosopher to use Aristotelian language and thought to explain the principal commitment of Jewish religious faith. The topics discussed include issues in physics, psychology, astronomy, religious belief, prophecy and diving providence, epistemology, theology, and ethics and religious practice. This critical edition contains the complete Solomon Ben Labi Hebrew translation of the lost, original Arabic text as well as the English translation prepared by Norbert Samuelson and Gershon Weiss. Samuelson has also written an introduction to each section of the work, and has provided a glossary of basic, technical Hebrew terms. The comprehensiveness and clarity of the work make this text an excellent introduction for students who wish to begin study in this area of philosophy and Jewish studies. Samuelson and Weiss present a critical edition and English translation of Solomon Ben Labi's Hebrew translation of the lost, original Arabic text of Abraham Ibn Daud's The Exalted Faith. Ibn Daud was the first Jewish philosopher to use Aristotelian language and thought to explain the principal commitments of Jewish religious faith. His monumental effort, written in 1160, has been preserved in this, his sole work of philosophy. Abraham ibn Daud's importance lies in the fact that he was the first to present a coherent systematic interpretation of Judaism in light of the new challenge, namely Muslim Aristotelianism. The sustained use of Aristotelian doctrines and logical reasoning clearly distinguishes ER from the writings of earlier Jewish philosophers. Moreover, the manner in which he incorporates his Muslim (and to a lesser extent) Jewish sources in a carefully structured system in order to solve a religious problem is noteworthy. His thought develops along the following lines: substance-form - motion and transition from potentiality into actuality-soul - God-intelligences-prophet-freedom of the will-correspondence between correct knowledge and correct conduct-perfection.…

It opens with the motto of Hegel, and the title of the novel is a direct reference to the work of a German philosopher.
