Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Throughout the world, democracy is under assault from various populist movements and ideologies. And, throughout the world, the same enigma: why is it that political figures or governments, who have no qualms about aggravating social inequalities, enjoy the support of those whom their ideas and policies affect and hurt the most To make sense of this enigma, the sociologist Eva Illouz argues that we must understand the crucial role that emotions play in our political life. Taking the case of Israel as her prime example, she shows that populist politics rest on four key emotions: fear, disgust, resentment, and love for one's country. It is the combination of these four emotions and their relentless presence in the political arena that nourishes and underpins the rise and persistence of populism both in Israel and in many other countries around the world.This highly original perspective on the rise of populism will be of interest to anyone who wishes to understand the key political developments of our time.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The world is entering a new age of catastrophe. The exceptional is becoming normal. The last such crisis, between 1914 and 1945, witnessed two world wars, the Great Depression, and the Holocaust. Now humankind faces fresh existential threats - the COVID-19 pandemic, wildfires, floods and other extreme weather events caused by accelerating climate change, and the danger of nuclear war in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.These threats, argues Alex Callinicos, have their common source in a multidimensional crisis of the capitalist system, which is hitting the buffers, hurling us towards societal collapse. It embraces the increasing destruction of nature and the degradation of labour, a world economy stagnant since the global financial crisis, and escalating inter-imperialist conflicts between the United States, China, and Russia.So far, the main political beneficiary has been the far right, which may capture the White House again. But the new age of catastrophe is also an age of revolt. Following on from Black Lives Matter, the #MeToo protests, and the revolts in Sudan, Sri Lanka, and Iran, multiple faultlines in the system will provoke still more mass movements that can challenge myriad forms of oppression and open the way to a just and sustainable world.…

Neuware - LTspice(r) for Linear CircuitsIntroduce yourself to the industry-leading software in electronic circuit simulationThe simulation of electronic circuits is a crucial tool in modern electrical engineering. Many currently available software toolkits for circuit simulation are expensive, or nominally free but with significant restrictions on features and applications. LTspice(r), a software distributed by semiconductor manufacturer Analog Devices, is not only the most widely used SPICE-based circuit simulator in the industry, but also free and unrestricted.LTspice(r)for Linear Circuits provides a comprehensive introduction to this software and its circuit simulation capabilities. Focusing on the fostering of practical knowledge, the book develops a six-step strategy for solving circuit analysis problems, beginning with the formulation of the problem, and proceeding through the simulation and the review of results. Readable and built around an easy-to-use, accessible software, LTspice(r) for Linear Circuits is an essential tool for any would-be electrical engineer.LTspice(r) for Linear Circuits readers will also find:\* Practical examples of circuit analysis problems and their solutions\* Detailed treatment of problems involving DC Circuits, First-Order Circuits, AC Circuits, Frequency Response and more\* Educational content from an author with decades of experience teaching electrical circuitsLTspice(r)for Linear Circuits is perfect for undergraduates in electrical engineering and adjacent subjects, as well as anyone looking for an introduction to this widely used software.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Geometric Quantum MechanicsUnique senior undergraduate/graduate level textbook on quantum mechanics that employs an intuitive, geometry-driven approach to the subjectGeometric Quantum Mechanics is a textbook for quantum mechanics at the senior undergraduate and graduate level and follows a unique approach to the material. The first chapter starts with the discussion of the properties of space leading to an understanding of operator techniques, Pauli matrices, spinors, quantum angular momentum, etc. Techniques from geometric algebra is frequently employed leading to more intuitive insights into the concepts.The second chapter extends the results to spacetime. The study of the motion in and the production of electromagnetic fields leads to the Lorentz and Maxwell equations, respectively. The nonrelativistic limit leads to the Schrödinger/Heisenberg equations. This provides an overview how different fields are linked to each other.The following chapters discuss applications of quantum mechanics. This covers a very broad area of physics showing how the ideas from quantum mechanics affect different fields. These are subdivided into chapters on single-particle problems, many-particle systems, and collective and emergent phenomena. The coverage includes the fundamental forces, atoms, molecules and solids, nuclear and particle physics, mass generation and the Higgs field, superconductivity, superfluidity, etc. The book restricts itself to the essence of these topics allowing the reader to understand how quantum mechanics impacts modern-day physics and chemistry. It appeals to instructors and students due to its different approach with its extensive use of geometric algebra and the broad range of modern applications.…
