Автор: Gallagher, Tom Название: Salazar ISBN: 1787383881 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781787383883 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 50890.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Fifty years after his death, Portugal's Salazar remains a controversial and enigmatic figure, whose conservative and authoritarian legacy still divides opinion. Some see him as a reactionary and oppressive figure who kept Portugal backward, while others praise his honesty, patriotism and dedication to duty. Contemporary radicals are wary of his unabashed elitism and scepticism about social progress, but many conservatives give credit to his persistent warnings about the threats to Western civilisation from runaway materialism and endless experimentation.
For a dictator, Salazar's end was anti-climactic-a domestic accident. But during his nearly four decades in power, he survived less through reliance on force and more through guile and charm. This probing biography charts the highs and lows of Salazar's rule, from rescuing Portugal's finances and keeping his strategically-placed nation out of World War II to maintaining a police state while resisting the winds of change in Africa.
It explores Salazar's long-running suspicion of and conflict with the United States, and how he kept Hitler and Mussolini at arm's length while persuading his fellow dictator Franco not to enter the war on their side. Iberia expert Tom Gallagher brings to life a complex leader who deserves to be far better known.

Название: Bertoldo Di Giovanni: The Renaissance of Sculpture in Medici Florence ISBN: 1911282433 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781911282433 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 73860.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Florentine sculptor Bertoldo di Giovanni (ca. 1440-1491) was a renowned student of Donatello, a teacher of Michelangelo, and a great favorite of Lorenzo "il Magnifico" de'Medici, his principal patron. He was one of the first sculptors to create statuettes in bronze, producing, among other things, the Frick Collection's "Heraldic Wild Man"--the only Bertoldo sculpture in the United States and considered one of his most important works. Bertoldo di Giovanni brings into focus the sculptor's unique position at the heart of the artistic and political landscape in fifteenth-century Italy. A major scholarly catalogue, featuring contributions from a team of international scholars, it is by far the most substantial text on Bertoldo ever produced.
Автор: Heather Salazar, Roderick Nicholls Название: The Philosophy of Spirituality: Analytic, Continental and Multicultural Approaches to a New Field of Philosophy ISBN: 9004376291 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004376298 Издательство: Brill Цена: 99620.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The essays in The Philosophy of Spirituality explore a new field in philosophy. Until recently, most philosophers in the analytic and continental Western traditions treated spirituality as a religious concept. Any non-religious spirituality tended to be neglected or dismissed as irremediably vague. Here, from various philosophical and cultural perspectives, it is addressed as a subject of independent interest. This is a philosophical response to increasing numbers of spiritual but not religious people inhabiting secular societies and the heightened interaction between a multitude of spiritual traditions in a globalized age. A provocative array of approaches (African, Indigenous, Indian, Stoic, and Sufic perspectives, as well as Western analytic and continental views) offer fresh insights, many articulated by emerging voices.Contributors are Mariapaola Bergomi, Moses Biney, Christopher Braddock, Drew Chastain, Kerem Eksen, Nikolay Milkov, Roderick Nicholls, Jerry Piven, Heather Salazar, Eric Steinhart, Richard White, Mark Wynn and Eric Yang.

Описание: Modern treatment of data requires powerful tools that allow the possible valuable contents of that data to be thoroughly understood and exploited. From the plethora of techniques proposed to achieve those objectives, the independent component analysis (ICA) has emerged as a flexible and efficient approach to model and characterize arbitrary data densities. Considering adequate data preprocessing, ICA can be implemented for any kind of data including imaging; biomedical signals; telecommunication data; and web data. In this framework, this book embraces a significant vision of ICA that presents innovative theoretical and practical approaches. ICA has been increasingly studied as a suitable method for many applications where available data describe complex geometries. Thus, this book aims to be an updated and advanced source of knowledge to solve real-world problems efficiently based on ICA. In contrast to classical time and frequency domain filtering, ICA has been proposed as a statistical filtering tool considering the observed data as mixtures of hidden non-Gaussian distributions called sources. Those sources extracted by ICA can be related with meaningful information about the origin of the data and for data detection/classification. Therefore, the successful of ICA has been widely demonstrated in challenging blind source separation (BSS), feature extraction, and pattern recognition tasks. The suitability of ICA for a given problem of data analysis can be posed from different perspectives considering the physical interpretation of the phenomenon under analysis: (i) Estimation of the probability density of multivariate data without physical meaning; (ii) learning of some bases (usually called activation functions), which are more or less connected to the actual behaviors that are implicit in the physical phenomenon; and (iii) to identify where sources are originated and how they mix before arriving to the sensors to provide a physical explanation of the linear mixture model. In any case, even though the complexity of the problem constrains a physical interpretation, ICA can be used as a general-purpose data mining technique. The chapters that compose this book are written by premier researchers that present enlightening discussions, convincing demonstrations, and guidelines for future directions of research. The contents of this book span biomedical signal processing, dynamic modeling, next generation wireless communication, and sound and ultrasound signal processing. It also includes comprehensive works based on the related ICA techniques known as bounded component analysis (BCA) and non-negative matrix factorization (NMF).

Описание: A stunning debut novel about friendship and its power to make us soarAudrey Coltrane has always wanted to fly. It's why she implored her father to teach her at the little airfield back home in Texas. It's why she signed up to train military pilots in Hawaii when the war in Europe began. And it's why she insists she is not interested in any dream-derailing romantic involvements, even with the disarming Lieutenant James Hart, who fast becomes a friend as dear as the women she flies with. Then one fateful day, she gets caught in the air over Pearl Harbor just as the bombs begin to fall, and suddenly, nowhere feels safe.Following the attack, Audrey struggles to reconcile her devastating losses--colleagues, friends and the piece of her heart she left in the air. She seizes the opportunity to join the Women Airforce Service Pilots, hoping to make everything she's lost count for something.The fast friendships she forms with her fellow WASP women reignites a spark of hope in the face of a war that moves closer to home every day. When James goes missing in action, those bonds help her summon the courage to cross the front lines and give her the faith that they will return stateside--together.
