Overview: Recent research in Robotic Sailing.Proceedings of the 6th International Robotic Sailing Conference.Written by leading experts in the fieldAn autonomous sailboat robot is a boat that only uses the wind on its sail as propelling force, without remote control or human assistance to achieve its mission. This involves autonomy in energy (using batteries, solar panels, turbines...), sensor data processing (compass, GPS, wind sensor...), actuators control (rudder and sail angle control...) and decision making (embedded computer with adequate algorithms). Although robotic sailing is a relati

Overview: Provides a much-needed comprehensive international summary of the state-of-the-art of cannabis regulation.Sets out a framework for systematic comparisons of different regulatory models, using the supp.This book explores one of the most pressing public policy questions for the 2020s: how should we regulate cannabis? The global cannabis prohibition regime is fragmenting as more countries experiment with decriminalization and legalization, and this book aims to make sense of this rapidly changing world. The ‘cannabis challenge’ is complex. How do we balance creating a potentially lucrat

Overview: n the first volume of Rumanian Folk Music (Instrumental Melodies) I portions of Bela Bart6k‘s subsequently-discarded preface, concern­ ing the fate of his folklore publications, are presented in explanation of the editorial processes necessary for achieving the publication. 1 By way of introduction to this revised edition of a previous, although in­ complete, published version of the Rumanian Carols and Christmas Songs (Colinde), we refer again to the author‘s suppressed lines which pertain to this volume: The second publication by the same publisher was to include my collection of R

Overview: Revolutions are watershed events that attempt to transform the existing political order and replace it with a new but better one. Yet the hallmark of most revolutions has been violence, war and dictatorship. The Iranian Revolution of 1979 has been no exception.This book offers a critical analysis of the Iranian Revolution. It focuses on the upheavals that led to the fall of the Shah. It provides the reader with an appreciation for the interplay of forces in the making of the 1979 revolution and the emergence of the Islamic regime.978-1-349-14064-0978-1-349-14062-6
