电子书：System Modeling and Simulation

V.P. Singh, "System Modeling and Simulation"

New Age | 2009 | ISBN: 8122429246 | 247 pages | PDF | 2,1 MB

Almost half a century has passed since System Analysis emerged as an independent field in Physical Sciences. Number of books and research papers has appeared in the literature and a need is felt to have a systematic one to the study of the subject. The basic techniques of Modeling and Simulation are now being taught in undergraduate engineering courses, and its applications in various engineering subjects require detailed studies. Similarly its application in “Weapon Systems Performance Analysis” is very essential and has also been discussed in the book. Although no claim has been made about the comprehensiveness of this book, yet attempt has been made to make this treatise useful to engineers as well as scientists, especially defence scientists.

The present book is the output of my thirty years of work in the field of Armament and System Analysis and also during my tenure in Institute of Engineering and Technology, Bhaddal, where this subject is being taught at various levels. Most of the chapters in the book are based on the papers published by the author in various technical journals. In order to make the analysis easier to understand, basic mathematical techniques have also been discussed. It is not possible to do full justice to the subject in one small book. But I have tried to condense as much material in this book as possible. I will not say that this treatise is exhaustive, yet it may give quite insight into the subject.

In the end I will like to acknowledge my friend and colleague Sh. Yuvraj Singh, Scientist E., Aeronautical Development Establishment, Bangalore, who was part of my team—Center for Aeronautical System Studies and Analysis, Bangalore and had been quite helpful in preparing this monograph.

电子书："Energy Storage: A New Approach" by Ralph Zito

"Energy Storage: A New Approach" by Ralph Zito

Wiley / Scrivener Publishing LLC | Aug 2010 | ISBN: 0470625910 | 313 pages | PDF | 13 MB

This book presents practical solutions to the problem of energy storage on a massive scale.This problem is especially difficult for renewable energy technologies, such as wind and solar power, that, currently, can only be utilized while the wind is blowing or while the sun is shining.

If energy storage on a large scale were possible, this would solve many of our society’s problems.For example, power grids would not go down during peak usage.Power plants that run on natural gas, for example, would no longer burn natural gas during the off-hours, as what happens now.These are just two of society’s huge problems that could be solved with this new technology.

This is a potentially revolutionary book, insofar as technical books can be “revolutionary.”The technologies that are described have their roots in basic chemistry that engineers have been practicing for years, but this is all new material that could revolutionize the energy industry.Whether the power is generated from oil, natural gas, coal, solar, wind, or any of the other emerging sources, energy storage is something that the industry MUST learn and practice.With the world energy demand increasing, mostly due to the industrial growth in China and India, and with the West becoming increasingly more interested in fuel efficiency and “green” endeavors, energy storage is potentially a key technology in our energy future.

电子书：The Problem of Woman in Late Medieval Hispanic Literature (Monografías A)Woman

Robert Archer, "The Problem of Woman in Late-Medieval Hispanic Literature (Monografías A)Woman "

Publisher: Tamesis Books | 2005 | ISBN 1855661136 | PDF | 235 pages | 3.1 MB

What is a woman? This book questions the persistent assumption that the large corpus of medieval Hispanic texts that discuss the nature of women can be defined in terms of the clichéd discourses of misogynism and defence of women, arguing instead that the problem of gender identity is vital to them all. The texts, some well-known, others which have received scant critical attention, are each discussed in their specific contexts and in relation to the ostensible reasons for their composition, such as a political, literary, religious, or didactic 'agenda'. They are also related to the literary traditions in which they are written (misogynistic denunciation, satire, humour, defence, narrative debate, among others), and the particular theoretical problems arising from them are discussed. But it is also argued that the full meaning of the texts lies at the less immediately accessible level at which they address this very problem of definition, one which arises directly from the self-perpetuating contradictions of authoritative wisdom on the nature of women. ROBERT ARCHER holds the Cervantes Chair of Spanish, King's College London.

电子书：Sparks Laura Bickle

Sparks - Laura Bickle

Pocket | August 31 2010 | English | ISBN-10: 1439167680 | PDF | 186 pages | 1.22 Mb

“WITHOUT A TRACE Anya Kalinczyk is the rarest type of psychic medium, a Lantern, who holds down a day job as an arson investigator with the Detroit Fire Department—while working 24/7 to exterminate malicious spirits haunting a city plagued by unemployment and despair. Along with her inseparable salamander familiar, Sparky, Anya has seen, and even survived, all manner of fiery hell—but her newest case sparks suspicions of a bizarre phenomenon that no one but her eccentric team of ghost hunters might believe: spontaneous human combustion.

After fire consumes the home of elderly Jasper Bernard, Anya is stunned to discover his remains—or, more precisely, a lack of them; even the fiercest fires leave some trace of their victims—and she is sure this was no naturally occurring blaze. Soon she’s unearthed a connection to a celebrity psychic who preys on Detroit’s poor, promising miracles for money. But Hope Solomon wants more—she’s collecting spirits, and in a frantic race against time, Anya will face down an evil adversary who threatens her fragile relationship with her lover, her beloved Sparky’s freshly hatched newts, and the wandering souls of the entire city

About the Author

电子书：Acquiring Genomes: A Theory of the Origins of Species

Lynn Margulis, Dorion Sagan, "Acquiring Genomes: A Theory of the Origins of Species"

Basic Books | 2002 | ISBN: 0465043917, 0465043925 | 256 pages | PDF | 3,5 MB

From one of the great iconoclasts of modern biology, an original, accessible work that sets out, for lay and scientific readers alike, a new theory of how species begin.

In this groundbreaking book, Lynn Margulis and Dorion Sagan present an answer to one of the enduring mysteries of evolution--the source of inherited variation that gives rise to new species. Random genetic mutation, long believed to be the main source of variation, is only a marginal factor. As the authors demonstrate in this book, the more important source of speciation, by far, is the acquisition of new genomes by symbiotic merger.

The result of thirty years of delving into a vast, mostly arcane literature, this is the first book to go beyond--and reveal the severe limitations of--the "Modern Synthesis" that has dominated evolutionary biology for almost three generations. Lynn Margulis, whom E. O. Wilson called "one of the most successful synthetic thinkers in modern biology," and her co-author Dorion Sagan have written a comprehensive and scientifically supported presentation of a theory that directly challenges the assumptions we hold about the variety of the living world.

电子书：Peace and Security in the Asia Pacific: Theory and Practice

Peace and Security in the Asia-Pacific: Theory and PracticeBySorpong Peou

Publisher:Praeger2010 |351 Pages | ISBN: 0313382107 | PDF | 1 MB

Many think that the 21st century will belong to the Asian Pacific, with the United States and China as the dominant powers. In fact, there are a plethora of views and theories related to peace and stability in the Asian Pacific. Which is the surest guide to understanding the region?

The Asian Pacific has emerged as one of the most important regions in the world, causing scholars to pay increased attention to the various challenges, old and new, to peace and security there. Peace and Security in the Asia-Pacific: Theory and Practice is a comprehensive, critical review of the established theoretical perspectives relevant to contemporary peace and security studies in the light of recent experiences.

Illuminating ongoing debates in the field, the book covers some 20 theoretical perspectives on peace and security in the Asian Pacific, including realist, liberal, socialist, peace and human security, constructivist, feminist, and nontraditional security studies. The first section of the book discusses perspectives in realist security studies, the second part covers perspectives critical of realism. The author's goal is to assess whether any of the perspectives found in nonrealist security studies are capable of undermining realism. His conclusion is that each theoretical perspective has its strengths and weaknesses, leaving eclecticism as the best way to understand the region's dynamics.

电子书：Мексиканская кухня

Информационная группа "Медиасеть" "Мексиканская кухня"

2010 г. | 98 стр. | DJVU | ISBN: 9785918260111 | 3.69 MB

Своей оригинальностью мексиканская кухня обязана цивилизациям, существовавшим в доколумбовой Америке. Именно из культуры древних народов были взяты вкусовые пристрастия и рецепты, основу которых составляют кукуруза и перец чили. С приходом на материк поселенцев из Старого Света - Франции, Голландии, Испании - гастрономические традиции индейцев значительно обогатились. В результате сформировалась кухня, поражающая любого гурмана необычностью своего «густого» вкуса.

“HER TOUCH IS DEADLY

As the only female Seminus demon ever born, master assassin Sinead Donnelly is used to being treated like an outcast. She spent decades enslaved, and now vows she'll die before she'll relinquish her freedom again. Then Sin's innate ability to kill her enemies goes awry: She creates a lethal new werewolf virus that sparks a firestorm of panic and violence.

HIS HUNGER CAN'T BE DENIED

Half-werewolf, half-vampire Conall Dearghul is charged with bringing in Sin to face punishment for the plague.
