Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. Buddhist intellectual discourse owes its development to a dynamic interplay between primary source materials and subsequent interpretation, yet scholarship on Indian Buddhism has long neglected to privilege one crucial series of texts. Commentaries on Buddhist scriptures, particularly the stras, offer rich insights into the complex relationship between Buddhist intellectual practices and the norms that informand are informed bythem. Evaluating these commentaries in detail for the first time, Richard F. Nance revisitsand rewrites & the critical history of Buddhist thought, including its unique conception of doctrinal transmission. Attributed to such luminaries as Ngrjuna, Vasubandhu, Dignga, and ntideva, scriptural commentaries have long played an important role in the monastic and philosophical life of Indian Buddhism. Nance reads these texts against the social and cultural conditions of their making, establishing a solid historical basis for the interpretation of key beliefs and doctrines. He also underscores areas of contention, in which scholars debate what it means to speak for, and as, a Buddha. Throughout these texts, Buddhist commentators struggle to deduce and characterize the speech of Buddhas and teach others how to convey and interpret its meaning. At the same time, they demonstrate the fundamental dilemma of trying to speak on behalf of Buddhas. Nance also investigates the notion of right speech as articulated by Buddhist texts and follows ideas about teaching as imagined through the common figure of a Buddhist preacher. He notes the use of epistemological concepts in scriptural interpretation and the protocols guiding the composition of scriptural commentary, and provides translations of three commentarial guides to better clarify the normative assumptions organizing these works.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition Thus. 1904. First edition thus - Saracen's Head Library edition, being the first of the Mary Kingsley Travel Books series. Copy No. 77 of a limited edition of 300 copies printed on handmade paper (12 copies were also printed on Japanese vellum). xvii, 210pp., woodcut decorations based on West African designs and a 'Saracen's Head Library' frontispiece by R. Morton Nance. Richard Jobson (fl. 1620-1623) was an English explorer of West Africa. Little is known of his life except the details given in this book, The Golden Trade, which describes his 1620-1 expedition along the River Gambia in West Africa. Prior to the intensification of the transatlantic slave trade, West Africa was famed for its great wealth in gold and ivory and English traders sought to gain direct access to the supply, rather than through negotiating with middlemen in North Africa or in Portugal. Following the failure of earlier expeditions, Jobson arrived at the mouth of the Gambia in November 1620 and sailed up the river, reaching lands under the influence of the Empire of Great Fulo and the fracturing Mali Empire in present day Senegal. Even though he did not find the gold he hoped for, Jobson's account provides an important early description of several West African kingdoms and the culture and society of the Fula and Mandinka people of the region. The book is bound in the original dark maroon paper covered boards with a maroon cloth spine and a paper title label on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear and some soiling and fading to the boards. The corners are rubbed with a little damage and loss to the paper covering the corner tips. The spine is faded with some staining and the title label is soiled. There is a circular mark near the middle of the spine where a small old paper sticker has probably been removed. The contents are tight and clean with heavy soiling to the top edge of the text block and lighter soiling to the fore edge of the text block. A reference number has been written near the top spine corner of the title-page and there is some light browning and foxing to the endpapers. There is no inscription. R. Morton Nance (illustrator). …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Golden Trade: Or A Discovery Of The River Gambra, And The Golden Trade Of The Aethiopians is a historical book written by Richard Jobson and published in 1904. The book is based on Jobson's personal experience of exploring the River Gambra in West Africa in the early 17th century. The book provides a detailed account of Jobson's journey through the River Gambra, which he believed to be the legendary River Niger. He describes the people and cultures he encountered along the way, including the Aethiopians, who were known for their gold trade. Jobson's account of the golden trade of the Aethiopians is particularly noteworthy, as it provides insights into the African gold trade during the 17th century. He describes the various methods used by the Aethiopians to mine and trade gold, and the role of European traders in the process. Overall, The Golden Trade is a valuable historical document that provides a unique perspective on the African gold trade and the exploration of West Africa during the early modern period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This is one of the shorter books in the 21 volume Practitioner Book Series, but this is entirely appropriate for a text on the ubiquitous topic of Quality. The book is written in a concise, precise no-nonsense style by two interna tional authors. They are supported in their approach by relevant personal practical experience and by peer-review of other researchers obtained whilst disseminating their research in the academic literature. The authors base their book around their Objective/Principles/ Attributes (OPA) Framework, developed in the first place for assessment and prediction of software quality. After OPA was developed as a procedure for evaluating software development methodologies, it was expanded to include software quality measurement with the inclusion of statistical indicators and a systematic basis for deriving them. The OPA is an holistic approach to soft ware quality and prediction. The approach has been validated through experience gained on a 4-year on-site project, which has also led to improve ments to the framework.…

Softcover. Zustand: Gut. " Gebraucht - Gut Zustand: Gut, X, 121 pp. About this book: What should be every software organization's primary goal? Managing Software Quality. Producing and sustaining the high quality of products and processes in evolutionary systems are at the core of software engineering, and it is only through a comprehensive measurement program that a successful outcome can be assured. Cost and budget limitations, schedule due dates, all represent systems engineering constraints which impinge on the degree to which software development and maintenance professional can achieve maximum quality. Richard Nance and James Arthur's guide to managing software quality goes beyond the usual answers to the \"why\" and \"what\" questions generally provided in the standards documents. They not only look at the \"how to\" in their focus of the measurement of software quality, but also come up with specific suggestions to the pressing needs of practising software engineers, quality assurance engineers and software and project managers. \"This is one of the few books in this area that addresses the 'quality' aspect based upon the important aspect of documentation. In addition, the book provides a basis for not only the software manager concerned with measurement implementation, but also the researcher in identifying the current state of the art and practice. This will be a key reference guide for anyone that is concerned with developing quality software.\" (William H Farr, PhD, Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division) About the Authors: Research motivated by problems arising in large, complex software systems is what stimulates Richard Nance. His collaboration with the U.S. Navy on major software-intensive programs spans over 30 years. James Arthur is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Virginia Tech. Written for practitioners, project managers, software developers, software quality managers ".…
