Animal Subjects Volume 1 Literature, Zoology, and British Modernism


Free Download Caroline Hovanec, "Animal Subjects: Volume 1: Literature, Zoology, and British Modernism"
English | ISBN: 1108428398 | 2018 | 232 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Animal Subjects identifies a new understanding of animals in modernist literature and science. Drawing on Darwin’s evolutionary theory, British writers and scientists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries began to think of animals as subjects dwelling in their own animal worlds. Both science and literature aimed to capture the complexity of animal life, and their shared attention to animals pulled the two disciplines closer together. It led scientists to borrow the literary techniques of fiction and poetry, and writers to borrow the observational methods of zoology. Animal Subjects tracks the coevolution of literature and zoology in works by H. G. Wells, Aldous Huxley, D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, and modern scientists including Julian Huxley, Charles Elton, and J. B. S. Haldane. Examining the rise of ecology, ethology, and animal psychology, this book shows how new, subject-centered approaches to the study of animals transformed literature and science in the modernist period.

World War II at the Movies Volume II


Free Download Virginia Lyman Lucas, "World War II at the Movies: Volume II"
English | ISBN: 164628030X | 2019 | 146 pages | EPUB | 417 KB
As rich in history as World War II at the Movies, which commemorates in chronological order World War II major battles and pivotal events and captures the spirit of frontline heroes and strategist leaders, World War II at the Movies, Volume II, is as different in content and format. These compelling major motion picture films, blockbuster thrillers, and fascinating supplemental data elucidate and elaborate on top secret commando missions, challenges that wounded veterans faced adapting to civilian life with life-changing disabilities, and innovation, development, and advances in war weaponry technology, which led to the Allied victory over tyranny. You will find out: whose naval career was depicted and portrayed by Cliff Robertson at the time he was a sitting president of the United States who was the youngest World War II veteran (who enlisted in the Navy at the age of twelve) who was the oldest World War II veteran (who died in December of 2018 at the age of 112) which "lady" came to England’s financial aid when they couldn’t fund the spitfire’s entry in the Schneider race (the winner of which would be awarded funds to further advance airplane design) who invented Germany’s enigma code machine

Statistical Theory of Open Systems Volume 1 A Unified Approach to Kinetic Description of Processes in Active Systems


Free Download Statistical Theory of Open Systems: Volume 1: A Unified Approach to Kinetic Description of Processes in Active Systems By Yu. L. Klimontovich (auth.)
1995 | 569 Pages | ISBN: 0792332423 | PDF | 40 MB
Let us begin by quoting from the Preface to the author’s Statistical Physics (Moscow, Nauka 1982; also published in English by Harwood in 1986): ”’My God! Yet another book on statistical physics! There’s no room on my bookshelves left!’ Such emotionsare quite understandable. Beforejumping to conclusions, however, it would be worthwhile to read the Introduction and look through the table of contents. Then the reader will find that this book is totally different from the existing courses, fundamental and concise. … We do not use the conventional division into statistical theories ofequilibrium and nonequilibrium states. Rather than that, the theory ofnonequilibrium state is the basis and the backbone oftheentirecourse. … This approach allows us to develop a unified method for statistical description ofa very broadclassofsystems. … The author certainly does not wish to exaggerate the advantages of the book, considering it asjustthe first attemptto create a textbookofa new kind." The next step in this direction was the author’s Turbulent Motion and the Structure of Chaos (Moscow, Nauka 1990; Kluwer Academic ✅Publishers 1991). This book is subtitled A New Approach to the Statistical Theory of Open Systems. Naturally, the "new approach" is not meant to defy the consistent and efficient methods of the conventional statistical theory; itshould be regarded as auseful reinforcementofsuch methods.
