Book excerpt: AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!! Named a Best Book of 2019 by TIME, Amazon, and The Washington Post A Wired Must-Read Book of Summer “Gretchen McCulloch is the internet’s favorite linguist, and this book is essential reading. Reading her work is like suddenly being able to see the matrix.” —Jonny Sun, author of everyone's a aliebn when ur a aliebn too Because Internet is for anyone who's ever puzzled over how to punctuate a text message or wondered where memes come from. It's the perfect book for understanding how the internet is changing the English language, why that's a good thing, and what our online interactions reveal about who we are. Language is humanity's most spectacular open-source project, and the internet is making our language change faster and in more interesting ways than ever before. Internet conversations are structured by the shape of our apps and platforms, from the grammar of status updates to the protocols of comments and @replies. Linguistically inventive online communities spread new slang and jargon with dizzying speed. What's more, social media is a vast laboratory of unedited, unfiltered words where we can watch language evolve in real time. Even the most absurd-looking slang has genuine patterns behind it. Internet linguist Gretchen McCulloch explores the deep forces that shape human language and influence the way we communicate with one another. She explains how your first social internet experience influences whether you prefer "LOL" or "lol," why ~sparkly tildes~ succeeded where centuries of proposals for irony punctuation had failed, what emoji have in common with physical gestures, and how the artfully disarrayed language of animal memes like lolcats and doggo made them more likely to spread.

Download or read book Picturing Canada written by Gail Edwards and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of children's illustrated books is located within the broad histories of print culture, publishing, the book trade, and concepts of childhood. An interdisciplinary history, Picturing Canada provides a critical understanding of the changing geographical, historical, and cultural aspects of Canadian identity, as seen through the lens of children's publishing over two centuries. Gail Edwards and Judith Saltman illuminate the connection between children's publishing and Canadian nationalism, analyse the gendered history of children's librarianship, identify changes and continuities in narrative themes and artistic styles, and explore recent changes in the creation and consumption of children's illustrated books. Over 130 interviews with Canadian authors, illustrators, editors, librarians, booksellers, critics, and other contributors to Canadian children's book publishing, document the experiences of those who worked in the industry. An important and wholly original work, Picturing Canada is fundamental to our understanding of publishing history and the history of childhood itself in Canada.

Book Synopsis Reshetnyak's Theory of Subharmonic Metrics by : François Fillastre
Download or read book Reshetnyak's Theory of Subharmonic Metrics written by François Fillastre and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the fundamental role played by Reshetnyak's work in the theory of surfaces of bounded integral curvature, the proofs of his results were only available in his original articles, written in Russian and often hard to find. This situation used to be a serious problem for experts in the field. This book provides English translations of the full set of Reshetnyak's articles on the subject. Together with the companion articles, this book provides an accessible and comprehensive reference for the subject. In turn, this book should concern any researcher (confirmed or not) interested in, or active in, the field of bounded integral curvature surfaces, or more generally interested in surface geometry and geometric analysis. Due to the analytic nature of Reshetnyak's approach, it appears that his articles are very accessible for a modern audience, comparing to the works using a more synthetic approach. These articles of Reshetnyak concern more precisely the work carried by the author following the completion of his PhD thesis, under the supervision of A.D. Alexandrov. Over the period from the 1940’s to the 1960’s, the Leningrad School of Geometry, developed a theory of the metric geometry of surfaces, similar to the classical theory of Riemannian surfaces, but with lower regularity, allowing greater flexibility. Let us mention A.D. Alexandrov, Y.D. Burago and V.A. Zalgaller. The types of surfaces studied by this school are now known as surfaces of bounded curvature. Particular cases are that of surfaces with curvature bounded from above or below, the study of which gained special attention after the works of M. Gromov and G. Perelman. Nowadays, these concepts have been generalized to higher dimensions, to graphs, and so on, and the study of metrics of weak regularity remains an active and challenging field. Reshetnyak developed an alternative and analytic approach to surfaces of bounded integral curvature. The underlying idea is based on the theorem of Gauss which states that every Riemannian surface is locally conformal to Euclidean space. Reshetnyak thus studied generalized metrics which are locally conformal to the Euclidean metric with conformal factor given by the logarithm of the difference between two subharmonic functions on the plane. Reshetnyak's condition appears to provide the correct regularity required to generalize classical concepts such as measure of curvature, integral geodesic curvature for curves, and so on, and in turn, to recover surfaces of bounded curvature.

Download or read book Zed written by Elizabeth McClung and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zed is having a bad day. She's twelve and there's someone around who's killing kids, which she doesn't have time for. Today, she's already knifed a rapist, traded with half the drunks and addicts in town, talked to the dead, bargained with a sociopath, and extracted crucial information from a mental patient - and she hasn't even left the building. Welcome to what Whitbread Prize winner Lindsay Clarke has called ''a nightmare world which I am trying to escape, but cannot. ''Welcome to the Tower, an urban development project no city wants to lay claim to; a place to steer clear of if at all possible, but if you can't, you'll fit right in. Zed is a vivid, claustrophobic, at times nightmarish novel about madness, survival, and crumbling institutions; it is Moby Dick set in the squalor of an inner city, where rules are abandoned, and it's every man (and young girl) for him or herself. In the spirit of J.G. Ballard's High Rise or Iain Banks' The Wasp Factory, Zed depicts a frenzied underworld; it is a novel of verve and feverish, expansive imagination.
