Book Synopsis Zones of Instability by : Imre Szeman
Download or read book Zones of Instability written by Imre Szeman and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2004-12-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attempts by writers and intellectuals in former colonies to create unique national cultures are often thwarted by a context of global modernity, which discourages particularity and uniqueness. In describing unstable social and political cultures, such "third-world intellectuals" often find themselves torn between the competing literary requirements of the "local" culture of the colony and the cosmopolitan, "world" culture introduced by Western civilization. In Zones of Instability, Imre Szeman examines the complex relationship between literature and politics by exploring the production of nationalist literature in the former British empire. Taking as his case studies the regions of the British Caribbean, Nigeria, and Canada, Szeman analyzes the work of authors for whom the idea of the"nation" and literature are inexorably entwined, such as Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, C.L.R. James, Frantz Fanon, and V.S. Naipaul. Szeman focuses on literature created in the two decades after World War II, decades in which the future prospects for many colonies went from extreme political optimism to extreme political disappointment. He finds that the "nation" can be read as that space in which literature is thought to be able to conjoin two things that history has separated—the writer and the people.

Download or read book Unwinnable Wars written by David Callahan and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1997 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new book, David Callahan offers a thorough history of ethnic conflicts both before and after the fall of Communism. He outlines the failures and successes of American diplomacy's haphazard approaches to this strife, and offers compelling evidence of the need for a consistent American policy toward ethnic conflict, a policy that should extend beyond the peace of individual countries to international trade, economics, the environment, and more. Callahan's sensible recommendations for how to predict and prevent ethnic conflicts - and intervene when necessary - will prove invaluable for all those interested in the global power of the United States in the next century.
Book Synopsis From Dust To Stars by : Norbert S. Schulz
Download or read book From Dust To Stars written by Norbert S. Schulz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-03-06 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of stellar formation in galaxies have a profound impact on our understanding of the present and the early universe. The book describes complex physical processes involved in the creation of stars and during their young lives. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays and gamma -rays, with special reference towards high energy signatures. Several sections devoted to key analysis techniques demonstrate how modern research in this field is pursued.

Book Synopsis Instability and Variability of Hot-Star Winds by : Anthony F.J. Moffat
Download or read book Instability and Variability of Hot-Star Winds written by Anthony F.J. Moffat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This specialized workshop was conceived during the workshop on "Non isotropic and Variable Outflows from Stars", which was held at the Space Telescope Science Institute in October, 1991. At that meeting, the four of us collectively decided that the time was ripe for an even more focussed discussion of the basic issues in the area of hot-star wind instability and its observable manifestations. Not that the big problems have been solved! Rather, we are currently in a phase of rapid development, both with regard to the models and to the observations. The key issue at this new workshop would be to decide how the time-dependent structures observed in hot-star winds (e. g. , NACs, DACs, blobs, clumps, filaments, shells, puffs, jets, etc. ) relate to radiative and other instabilities. Further questions concern the role of turbulence and the nature of its driver, and the effect of stellar rotation, pulsation, and magnetic fields on time-dependent phenomena in hot-star winds. Of no less importance is the impact of stellar wind variability on the derivation of mass-loss rates, on stellar evolution, and on momentum/energy deposition in the interstellar medium. To attain our goal of maximum confrontation (in the positive sense!) we decided: (1) to limit the workshop to the observers and theoreticians most active in this field in the world; (2) to insist that virtually all participants present a talk, thereby avoiding the distraction of poster sessions; and (3) to allocate approximately half of the allotted time to discussion.

Book Synopsis Developmental Instability by : Michal Polak
Download or read book Developmental Instability written by Michal Polak and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of developmental instability has generated a large amount of controversy recently, mostly because of fierce disagreement over the genetic basis of fluctuating asymmetry and its role in mate selection. This book is a timely and innovative critical evaluation of a burgeoning field. The book explores the premise that complex organismal, ecological and evolutionary processes can be understood as emergent properties of the "epigenetic machine," that is, the mechanisms fundamental to all organisms responsible for building and organizing phenotypes from information translated from DNA.
