Overview: .In recent years, there has been something of an explosion in the performance of live music to silent films. There is a wide range of films with live and new scores that run from the historically accurate orchestral scores to contemporary sounds by groups such as Pet Shop Boys or by experimental composers and gothic heavy metal bands. It is no exaggeration to claim that music constitutes a bridge between the old silent film and the modern audience; music is also a channel for non-scholarly audiences to gain an appreciation of silent films. Music has become a means both for musicians

Overview: Explores how the acts of giving and receiving can influence one’s perceived value.Discusses forms of religious philanthropy.Addresses unique cultural frameworks of giving and receivingThis collection revisits classical anthropological treatments of the gift by documenting how people may be valued both through the requests they make and through what they give.

Overview: Focuses on the synthesis and analysis of type-2 fuzzy logic controllers.Covers closed-loop system analysis with smooth and nonsmooth Lyapunov functions.Sheds light on stability analysis of fuzzy contrThis book presents the synthesis and analysis of fuzzy controllers and its application to a class of mechanical systems. It mainly focuses on the use of type-2 fuzzy controllers to account for disturbances known as hard or nonsmooth nonlinearities. The book, which summarizes the authors’ research on type-2 fuzzy logic and control of mechanical systems, presents models, simulation and exp

Overview: Berger argues that tourism was forged by Mexico‘s government in 1928 as the cornerstone of state-led modernization programmes. Berger presents tourism as the leading and influential facet of the post-revolutionary modernization programme. She also examines how tourism fostered nationalism and unity, and emerged as a new form of foreign diplomacy.978-1-349-52946-9978-1-4039-8286-5Series ISSN 1554-4028 Series E-ISSN 2634-520X

Overview: It is precisely the kind of highly variable success that Schaeffler KG was forced to endure during its acquisitions of FAG Kugelfischer and Continental, which provides a telling account of the myriad potential consequences of mergers and acquisitions in the automotive supply industry. The global competitive landscape for automotive s- pliers is wholly unique, and not just because its consumers and key customers, the automotive manufacturers, have joined together in an ever-narrowing oligopoly over the last twenty years, nor because the current focus on suppliers is already helping re

Overview: One would rarely have the opportunity to augment his medical library with a more exhaustive examination of the subject matter than is contained herein. Would only that all areas of one‘s professional responsibilities be available in such a complete, didactic, written form. Having a decided interest in the subject of head and neck paragangliomas for the past decade, I have had the opportunity to explore the subject through published medical literature and personal investi­ gation, and feel qualified to commend Doctors Zak and Lawson on their dedica­ tion, accuracy, and thoroughness in

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Inverse problems arise whenever one tries to calculate a required quantity from given measurements of a second quantity that is associated to the first one. Besides medical imaging and non-destructive testing, inverse problems also play an increasing role in other disciplines such as industrial and financial mathematics. Hence, there is a need for stable and efficient solvers. The book is concerned with the method of approximate inverse which is a regularization technique for stably solving inverse problems in various settings such as L.2.-spaces, Hi
