Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Can a starving orphan (with an extraordinary musical ability) save an entire nation from imminent destruction? Freelandia is a tiny country still largely ruled by a widespread acceptance of the reality of God's existence. Yet it is this very devotion to good which draws monumental forces of evil down upon the minuscule nation - bent upon its total annihilation. This first book of an epic trilogy follows the spellbinding adventures of three unlikely characters fated to play a pivotal role in the destiny of the entire world  - Maria (a young orphan with the ability to sing with unearthly, soul-reaching harmony), Gaeten (the mysterious leader of the country's elite protective force), and Ethan (a young man gifted with the ability to see/select multiple future courses of action). Filled with spiritual truths and reminiscent of the miraculous conditions and faith apparent during the foundation of America, this is an adventure which can be enjoyed by all ages.&nbsp.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Utility systems are everywhere in the home. What were once major innovations - central heating, hot and cold running water, and electric lights - have become so commonplace as to be taken for granted. In fact, the network of utilities (pipes, wires, and ducts) in the home is now relatively simple compared to those in some of the other environments that people occupy - airplanes, ships, cars, etc. Although the systems in the home are comparatively uncomplicated, their installation involves inefficient, labor-intensive processes that would not be tolerated in other products and industries, such as those mentioned above. Utilities are run almost haphazardly through the walls of stick-built homes, sometimes compromising structure and insulating integrity, and always making repair and modification difficult. In the future, utilities will inevitably become more complicated as homes become centers of work, learning, communication, entertainment, preventative health care, and distributed energy production. The new utility systems that emerge to meet these functions will likely include advanced control systems, LED or fiber-optic lighting, wireless and wired data networks, additional fire safety plumbing, building-integrated photovoltaics, and ubiquitous low-cost sensors for security, health, comfort, etc. Existing utility systems can also be expected to expand. Conventional entangled processes will increase the complexity and cost of construction, and could inhibit the introduction of new utility systems. Furthermore, new building technologies and construction techniques have the potential to compound the problem: utility entanglement could become a major roadblock to innovation in home construction.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Cloth, dj. Minor edge wear to jacket. Top corner of rear board beginning to fray. Else fine. A very nice copy; internals are bright and clean. American architect Louis I. Kahn left behind a legacy of great buildings: the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California; the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas; and the Indian Institute for Management in Ahmedabad. Yet he also left behind an equally important legacy of designs that were never realized. This exceptional volume unites those unbuilt projects with the most advanced computer-graphics technology--the first fundamentally new tool for studying space since the development of perspective in the Renaissance--to create a beautiful and poignant vision of what might have been. Author Kent Larson has delved deep into Kahn's extensive archives to construct faithful computer models of a series of proposals the architect was not able to build: the U.S. Consulate in Luanda, Angola; the Meeting House of the Salk Institute in La Jolla; the Mikveh Israel Synagogue in Philadelphia; the Memorial to Six Million Jewish Martyrs in New York City; three proposals for the Hurva Synagogue in Jerusalem; and the Palazzo dei Congressi in Venice. The resulting computer-generated images present striking views of real buildings in real sites. Each detail is exquisitely rendered, from complex concrete textures to subtle interreflections and patterns of sunlight and shadow. Kahn's famous statement--I thought of wrapping ruins around buildings--is borne out by the views of his unbuilt works; his rigorous exploration of tactility and sensation, light and form, is equally evident. Complementing the new computer images is extensive archival material--rough preliminary drawings, finely delineated plans, and beautiful travel sketches. Larson also presents fascinating documentation of each project, often including correspondence with the clients that shows not only the deep respect accorded the architect but the complicated circumstances that sometimes made it impossible to bring a design to fruition. Not only a historical study of Kahn's unbuilt works, this volume is in itself an intriguing alternative history of architecture.…
