Python Distilled (9780134173276)

Expert Insight for Modern Python (3.6+) Development from the Author of Python Essential Reference The richness of modern Python challenges developers at all levels.

Das Franzoesische Konzernbilanzrecht : Vergleichende Analyse Zum Deutschen Recht Im Hinblick Auf Die Konzernbilanzzwecke Und Deren Grundkonzeption (9783631307601)

Die EG-Bilanzrichtlinien haben - wie am Beispiel Frankreich deutlich wird - einen -Kumuleffekt- auf die den Konzernen zur Verfugung gestellte bilanzpolitische -Manovriermasse- gehabt. Diese kann zwar durchaus der Aussagekraft der in einem EG-Mitgliedstaat erstellten Konzernbilanz dienlich sein, sie wirft aber in bezug auf die Vergleichbarkeit der Rechenwerke Probleme auf. Nach detaillierter Analyse der Einzelvorschriften, insbesondere hinsichtlich der Kapitalkonsolidierung, wird die franzosische Vorgehensweise als wirtschaftlich aussagefahiger auch fur die deutsche Konzernabschlusserstellung vorgeschlagen. Gleichzeitig wird aber auch auf die Gefahren des Missbrauchs nicht zuletzt mit Verweis auf Praktiken franzosischer Grosskonzerne hingewiesen." Product details Format Paperback ...

Los últimos días de Emmanuel Kant (9788477023272)

En 1827,veintitrés años después de la muerte del gran filósofo alemán,apareció en Blackwoods Magazine el texto Los últimos días de Emmanuel Kant,de Thomas De Quincey, como parte de una serie titulada Galería de clásicos de la prosa alemana,y con el paso del tiempo este pequeño ensayo se ha convertido en una joya literaria con una peculiar fuerza de atracción,pues con razón se ha considerado a De Quincey el mejor prosista inglés del siglo XIX.Tres son los personajes principales con los que se topa el lector en este estudio biográfico:uno de ellos es,indudablemente,Kant,el otro es Wasianski,clérigo discípulo del filósofo,al que asistió y administró en los últimos años de su vida,y el tercero es el propio Thomas De Quincey,que aparece camuflado en las extensas notas al texto.Estos tres personajes van en busca de una identidad,la verdadera identidad de Kant,en pleno declive de una de las mentes más portentosas de la historia del pensamiento,pero el ensayo también persigue el retrato de la ...

Paradigms in Cartography : An Epistemological Review of the 20th and 21st Centuries (9783642447549)

In this book the main trends, concepts and directions in cartography and mapping in modernism and post-modernism are reviewed. Philosophical and epistemological issues are analysed in cartography from positivist-empiricist, neo-positivist and post-structuralist stances. In general, in cartography technological aspects have been considered as well as theoretical issues. The aim is to highlight the epistemological and philosophical viewpoint during the development of the discipline. Some main philosophers who have been influential for contemporary thinking such as Immanuel Kant, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Karl Popper and Bertrand Russell, are considered. None of these philosophers wrote about cartography directly (excepting Kant), but their philosophies are related to cartography and mapping issues. The book also analyses the concept of paradigm or paradigm shift coined by Thomas Kuhn, who applied it to the history of science. Different cartographic trends that have arisen since the second ha...

Echolalia : att glömma språk (9789198514841)

På samma sätt som att man en gång lärt sig att tala, kan man under vissa omständigheter glömma bort hur man talar. Individer kan glömma enstaka ord, meningar och ibland även hela språk. Över tid kan detsamma ske för ett helt folks språk. Vissa språk förvandlas till ett annat, andra verkar försvinna i ett slag. Men hur går glömskan till, vad är det man glömmer och vad finns kvar av språken långt efter att man tror dem vara försvunna?  Echolalia. Att glömma språk är en fascinerande undersökning av det mänskliga språket och hur det förvandlats, förändrats och försvunnit genom historien. I 21 täta kapitel analyseras språklig glömska i den antika, medeltida och moderna kulturen, och såväl tal och skrift som minne undersöks. Skillnaden mellan glömska och hågkomst, mellan skapande och förstörelse visar sig vara hårfin, och ibland omöjlig att skilja åt. Myten om Babel är sann åtminstone i den mening att språkets förbistring skingrar människorna över jorden, samtidigt som det förmodligen lika s...

The Ghosts of Galway (9780802127334)

Ken Bruen is a singular voice in crime fiction "with his ear for lilting Irish prose and his taste for the kind of gallows humor heard only at the foot of the gallows" (New York Times Book Review). In The Ghosts of Galway, he brings those elegiac talents to bear on a case involving a famously blasphemous red book and Bruen's equally profane antihero Jack Taylor. As well-versed in politics, pop culture, and crime fiction as he is ill-fated in life, Jack Taylor is recovering from a mistaken medical diagnosis and a failed suicide attempt. In need of money, and with former cop on his resume, Jack has been hired as a night-shift security guard. But his Ukrainian boss has Jack in mind for a bit of off-the-books work. He wants Jack to find what some claim to be the first true book of heresy, The Red Book, currently in the possession of a rogue priest who is hiding out in Galway after fleeing a position at the Vatican. Despite Jack's distaste for priests of any stripe, the m...

Women of the Gospels : Friends and Disciples of Jesus (9781587432828)

Ancient-Future Bible Study incorporates contemporary study of the Bible with an experience of the church's most ancient way of reading Scripture, lectio divina. This time-honored practice consists of five basic movements: biblical study (lectio), reflection (meditatio), prayer (oratio), discernment (contemplatio), and contemplative action (operatio). In six clearly written volumes, bestselling author Stephen Binz helps readers study the Bible in a way that leads to spiritual transformation and brings them closer to God. Binz leads readers in a vivid study of key biblical characters, including Abraham, Paul, Peter, David, the women of the Torah, and the women of the Gospels. He shows all Christians who desire to have a transforming experience with the inspired Word of God how studying Scripture through lectio divina can enrich their discipleship. This ecumenical Bible study, designed for use by individuals or groups, includes questions for personal reflection and suggested action. E...

The Violence of the Image : Photography and International Conflict (9781780767895)

Photography has visualized international relations and conflicts from the midnineteenth century onwards and continues to be an important medium in framing the worlds of distant, suffering others. Although photojournalism has been challenged in recent decades, claims that it is dead are premature. The Violence of the Image examines the roles of image producers and the functions of photographic imagery in the documentation of wars, violent conflicts and human rights issues; tackling controversial ideas such as 'witnessing', the making of appeals based on displays of human suffering and the much-cited concept of 'compassion fatigue'. In the twenty-first century, the advent of digital photography, camera phones and socialmedia platforms has altered the relationship between photographers, the medium and the audience- as well as contributing to an ongoing blurring of the boundaries between news and entertainment and professional and amateur journalism. The Violence of the ...

Intermediate Statistical Methods (9780412164507)

This book began many years ago as course notes for students at the University of Bath, and later at the University of Kent. Students used draft versions of the chapters, which were consequently revised. Second and third year students, as well as those taking MSc courses have used selections of the chapters. In particular, Chapters I to 7 (only) have been the basis of a very successful second-year course, the more difficult sections being omitted. The aims of this particular course were:- (a) to cover some interesting and useful applications of statistics with an emphasis on applications, but with really adequate theory; (b) to lay the foundations for interesting third-year courses; (c) to tie up with certain areas of pure mathematics and numerical analysis. 2 Students will find Chapter I a useful means of revising the t, X and F procedures, which is material assumed in this text, see Section 1.1. Later sections of Chapter I cover robustness and can be omitted by second-year students or...

Imaging Spectrometry : Basic Principles and Prospective Applications (9781402001949)

A significant step forward in the world of earth observation was made with the development of imaging spectrometry. Imaging spectrometers measure reflected solar radiance from the earth in many narrow spectral bands. Such a spectroscopical imaging system is capable of detecting subtle absorption bands in the reflectance spectra and measure the reflectance spectra of various objects with a very high accuracy. As a result, imaging spectrometry enables a better identification of objects at the earth surface and a better quantification of the object properties than can be achieved by traditional earth observation sensors such as Landsat TM and SPOT. The various chapters in the book present the concepts of imaging spectrometry by discussing the underlying physics and the analytical image processing techniques. The second part of the book presents in detail a wide variety of applications of these new techniques ranging from mineral identification, mapping of expansive soils, land degradation...

Christentum in der Moderne : Ausgewahlte Aufsatze (9783161519536)

Falk Wagner (1939-1998) war eine herausragende Gestalt innerhalb der deutschsprachigen evangelischen Theologie im 20. Jahrhundert. Sein Werk steht in der Tradition der spekulativen Theologie und verbindet den Entwurf einer Theorie des Absoluten im Gefolge Hegels mit einer neuzeittheoretischen Umformung klassischer dogmatischer (und ethischer) Gehalte. Wagners Denken weist neben einer Kontinuitat an Themenstellungen auch Neuorientierungen, etwa mit Blick auf die empirische Religionssoziologie, auf. In diesem Band sind programmatische Aufsatze aus allen Perioden seines Schaffens auf den Gebieten von Sozialtheorie, Religionsphilosophie und Dogmatik versammelt.

Dead Voices (9780525515074)

Having survived sinister scarecrows and the malevolent smiling man in Small Spaces, newly minted best friends Ollie, Coco, and Brian are ready to spend a relaxing winter break skiing together with their parents at Mount Hemlock Resort. But when a snowstorm sets in, causing the power to flicker out and the cold to creep closer and closer, the three are forced to settle for hot chocolate and board games by the fire. Ollie, Coco, and Brian are determined to make the best of being snowed in, but odd things keep happening. Coco is convinced she has seen a ghost, and Ollie is having nightmares about frostbitten girls pleading for help. Then Mr. Voland, a mysterious ghost hunter, arrives in the midst of the storm to investigate the hauntings at Hemlock Lodge. Ollie, Coco, and Brian want to trust him, but Ollie's watch, which once saved them from the smiling man, has a new cautionary message: BEWARE. With Mr. Voland's help, Ollie, Coco, and Brian reach out to the dead voices at Mount ...
