Paperback. Zustand: Good. Global climate change is one of the most important issues humanity faces today. This book assesses the sensible, senseless and biased proposals for averting the potentially disastrous consequences of global warming, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions on switching to more sustainable energy provision. Burton Richter is a Nobel Prize-winning scientist who has served on many US and international review committees on climate change and energy issues. He provides a concise overview of our knowledge and uncertainties within climate change science, discusses current energy demand and supply patterns, and the energy options available to cut emissions of greenhouse gases. Written in non-technical language, this book presents a balanced view of options for moving from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels into a much more sustainable energy system, and is accessible to a wide range of readers without scientific backgrounds - students, policymakers, and the concerned citizen.

Past Loeb Lecturer at Harvard and Astor Lecturer at Oxford, Dr. Richter now serves on the board of directors for Scientists and Engineers for America, and continues his energy work at Stanford University. 226 pages.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. America's narrative often begins with the Founding Fathers and the revolution, but this perspective overlooks the complexity of the nation's pre-revolutionary history. In a groundbreaking revision, Daniel Richter illustrates that the United States has a rich and intricate past that extends back to the Middle Ages, with legacies that continue to influence the present. Through a diverse array of original sources, the work spans over seven centuries and traverses North America, Europe, and Africa. Richter uncovers the lives of various groups--Indians, Spaniards, French, Dutch, Africans, and English--as they navigated struggles for land and resources, all within a global context. These interactions laid the groundwork for the distinctive patterns of North American culture that emerged long before the concept of nations like the United States, Canada, or Mexico existed. By examining these historical trajectories on their own terms, rather than merely as precursors to independence, Richter's expansive vision sheds light on the profound origins of American history.…

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. 256pp. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "This comprehensive and joyous celebration of metered verse brings together some of the best rhythmic lines in literature. [] After a century dominated by free verse, there is a new excitement about rediscovering poetry's ancient musical and performative roots. Iambic pentameter is the most familiar meter for most readers, but it only scratches the surface of the extraordinary diversity of rhythmic patterns that poets have employed over the ages. That astonishing variety is fully explored in this one-of-a-kind anthology, packed with great poems that beg to be read aloud. MEASURE FOR MEASURE is organized by meter, with brief explanatory headnotes covering accentual meter, trochees, anapests, dactyls, iambs, ballad meter, and more exotic species like amphibrachs, dipodics, hendecasyllabics, sapphics, and more. The entrancing examples of each meter are drawn from a wide range of poetic traditions, from Ovid and Sappho to Shakespeare and Milton, encompassing the Romantics, the Victorians, ballads, folk songs, poets of the Harlem Renaissance, and modern-day poets. Whether performed aloud or enjoyed in silence, MEASURE FOR MEASURE is a treat for the ear, the heart, and the mind." [jacket copy] Plenteous poetic meters & poets including Stevenson, Millay, Auden, Bishop, Wilbur, Dickinson, Byron, Hacker, Poe, dozens more. Pristine & handy hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a vibrant Jacket image: 1025 Farben, 1974, by Gerhard Richter. Quite presentable.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Engagingly written, deeply researched, and thoroughly revised to reflect the most recent interdisciplinary scholarship, this new edition of Native Americans and Pennsylvania focuses on Indigenous actors, voices, and landscapes, while tracing interconnections among local, continental, and global trends.The story begins thousands of years before there was such a thing as 'Pennsylvania.' William Penn did not paint his colony on a blank canvas. Colonists adapted ancient patterns of trade and cultural interaction created by the ancestors of Lenape, Conestoga, and Haudenosaunee peoples and convinced themselves they had made them their own. In the process, Pennsylvanians developed moral justifications for the expropriation of Indigenous land, pernicious doctrines about racial superiority, and brutal mechanisms of vigilante violence that profoundly influenced later United States government policies.Those policies kept Pennsylvania in the foreground of national Native American issues long after the Commonwealth expelled the majority of its Indigenous population to far-flung diasporic homes: forced cultural assimilation at off-reservation boarding schools in the nineteenth century, cultural revitalization and political activism in the twentieth, and struggles with cultural institutions over the repatriation of human remains and controversies over who has the right to claim Indigenous identity in the twenty-first.In the series Pennsylvania History.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - General, grade: 1,3, University of Cologne (Wirtschaftsgeografie), language: English, abstract: Multinational corporations (MNCs) play a significant role in our economic world. Accounting for approximately one third of total world trade and including around 80 million people outside their home bases in complex supply and dependency networks, they seize seemingly endless economic power what has given way to strong opposition and causes fear amongst ordinary people who feel at the mercy of their power.In my paper I will try to clarify the relationship between MNCs and nation states and therefore answer the question what kind of forces drive MNCs, which objectives they have and which measures they take to reach their individual aims.The paper will start with the definition of MNCs (chapter 2) and their emergence. I will then refer theories of MNC evolution that are closely linked to Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and patterns of labour division (chapter 3 and 4). The following chapter shall explore the power relationship between nation states and MNCs in general (chapter 5). The example of oil extraction through Royal Dutch Shell in the Nigeria's delta region will further illustrate the interdependencies especially many resource rich but underdeveloped or developing countries face and identify the sources of friction between government, state, peoples, NGOs and MNCs. The findings will be summarized and an outlook on possible future developments will be given in the last chapter (or Chapter 6).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - America began, we are often told, with the Founding Fathers, the men who waged a revolution and created a unique place called the United States. We may acknowledge the early Jamestown and Puritan colonists and mourn the dispossession of Native Americans, but we rarely grapple with the complexity of the nation¿s pre-revolutionary past. In this pathbreaking revision, Daniel Richter shows that the United States has a much deeper history than is apparent¿that far from beginning with a clean slate, it is a nation with multiple pasts that stretch back as far as the Middle Ages, pasts whose legacies continue to shape the present.Exploring a vast range of original sources, Before the Revolution spans more than seven centuries and ranges across North America, Europe, and Africa. Richter recovers the lives of a stunning array of peoples¿Indians, Spaniards, French, Dutch, Africans, English¿as they struggled with one another and with their own people for control of land and resources. Their struggles occurred in a global context and built upon the remains of what came before. Gradually and unpredictably, distinctive patterns of North American culture took shape on a continent where no one yet imagined there would be nations called the United States, Canada, or Mexico.By seeing these trajectories on their own dynamic terms, rather than merely as a prelude to independence, Richter¿s epic vision reveals the deepest origins of American history.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Focusing on the intersections between textile and architectural design, this title communicates the full range of possibilities for a multidisciplinary design hybrid. It examines the generative set of concepts, forms, patterns, materials, processes, technologies and practices that are driving this cross-fertilisation in contemporary urban and architectural design. Architextiles represents a transition stage in the reorientation of spatial design towards a more networked, dynamic, interactive, multifunctional and communicative state. The paradigms of fashion and textile design, with their unique, accelerated aesthetics and ability to embody a burgeoning, composite and complex range of properties such as lightness, flow, flexibility, surface, complexity and movement have a natural affinity with architecture's shifts towards a more liquid state. The preoccupation with textiles in architecture challenges traditional perceptions and practices in interior, architectural, urban, landscape and fashion design. Interweaving new designs and speculative projects for the future, Architextiles brings together architects, designers, engineers, technologists, theorists and material researchers to unravel these new methodologies of fabricating space. It features interviews with Will Alsop, Dominique Perrault and Lars Spuybroek, as well as contributions from Nigel Coates, Robert Kronenburg, Matilda McQuaid, Dagmar Richter, Peter Testa and Bradley Quinn. It also encompasses new projects and writings from young and emerging designers and theorists.Interior Eye The Sumahan on the Water, IstanbulBuilding Profile National Waterfront Museum, SwanseaPractice Profile Sauerbruch HuttonHome Run Nuovo Portello, Milan.…

Published on the occasion of 2007-2008 exhibitions at the Salzburg Kunstverein, the Hamburg Kunsthalle and at Kunsthaus Glarus (Switzerland). When he was a picture editor for an advertising agency, the German artist Peter Piller began to build an archive of thousands of newspaper photographs. As he poured over them and began to categorize them in quirky ways, he developed a new visual language. Comprised of over 1500 images culled from newspapers, Piller's Zeitung is a veritable encyclopedia of photographs grouped according to an unexpected common detail, a strange suggested back story or some other bizarre common thread. An archive representing a more public version of Gerhard Richter's personalized Atlas, Piller's project, through these otherwise unremarkable [uncaptioned] images, nonetheless has as much to say about the artist as it does the strange patterns and obsessions of contemporary culture. From the publisher: "From 1994 to 2005, German artist Peter Piller worked a day job at a leading Hamburg ad agency where he was responsible for analyzing and archiving more than 150 regional newspapers. The grinding repetition of this task inspired him to create the Peter Piller Archive, which consists of countless images culled from these newspapers and gathered into 80-some highly subjective categories such as 'Touching Cars,' 'Sad, Hopeless, Despair, Tristesse,' 'Girls Firing Arms,' 'Stand-in, Protests' or 'Man and Fire.' Zeitung, part of a series of artists' projects edited by Christoph Keller, is the most complete compilation to date of Piller's fascinating collection, which, at turns mundane and grotesque, constitutes an improbable typology of press photography from the last decade.".…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The architectural structuring principle of the chambered floor plan is as simple as it is economical, yet it allows for spatial and combinatorial freedom that can be interpreted in ever-new, ever-different ways. The resulting self-contained units or spatial sequences are suited for residential purposes as much as for office buildings, museums or schools, with the floor plans providing highly dynamic and surprising traffic patterns and views. The chambered (or cellular compartment) floor plan is the generating principle in many buildings, projects, and competition entries by Basel-based office Luca Selva Architects, who have been continually developing this typology in their many years of practice, modifying it and adapting it for new applications in different projects. It is therefore at the center of this new book on the work of the prolific office. The numerous plans and photographs are supplemented by a theoretical essay by Christoph Wieser and a text by Luca Selva, and a conversation between the architect and Patrick Gmür. The book for the first time sheds light on this surprisingly sparsely researched topic, and thus its wider significance for the discourse reaches beyond the exemplary designs by Luca Selva Architects.; Das architektonische Ordnungsprinzip des Kammergrundrisses ist einfach und ökonomisch, ermöglicht aber räumliche und kombinatorische Freiheiten, die immer wieder neu und anders ausgereizt werden können. Es entstehen in sich abgeschlossene Einheiten oder zu Sequenzen verbundene Raumgefüge, die sich für den Wohnungsbau gleichermassen eignen wie für Bürogebäude, Museen oder Schulhäuser. Das Resultat sind ebenso überraschende wie dynamische Wege und Ausblicke. Der Kammergrundriss ist das generierende Prinzip vieler Bauten, Projekte und Wettbewerbseingaben des Basler Büros Luca Selva Architekten, das den Typ im Lauf seiner langjährigen Tätigkeit stetig weiterentwickelt, abgewandelt und auf neue Bauaufgaben übertragen hat. Er steht nun auch im Zentrum dieses neuen Buches über das Schaffen des Büros. Zahlreiche Planabbildungen und Fotografien werden von einem architekturtheoretischen Essay von Christoph Wieser und einem Text von Luca Selva sowie einem Gespräch zwischen mit dem Architekten und Patrick Gmür begleitet. Das Buch beleuchtet erstmals und auf vielfältige Weise dieses bisher überraschenderweise kaum erforschte Thema und reicht damit über die beispielhaften Entwürfe von Luca Selva Architekten hinaus.…
