2017Outstanding Children's Fine Art Class
by Yang Fen
Charm of Ink Painting: A new introduction to the traditional ink painting teaching for children aged 9 to 15. The book contains key guiding points and effective teaching methods for flowers, birds, landscapes and figure paintings, and a complete presentation of 12 examples of teaching lessons. The traditional ink painting technique is transformed into the language of children's ink painting, which breaks through the traditional modular teaching method, refines the key teaching points with a perfect teaching system. Poetry and Painting: With the inspiration of the beauty of poetry, guide children to recite poems, condense different materials in their own works through inner enlightenments, and use the symbols unique to children to integrate various media materials, imagination with poetry, get rid of the bondage, and have a dialogue with the tradition, hence the funny and interesting paintings are greatly enriched. The Beauty of the Printmaking: Introduce the types and making methods of printmaking. Through the teaching of printmaking, enable children to learn to live, learn to be a good citizen, learn to survive, and build a healthy personality with the knowledge they have mastered, guide children organically to discover and express themselves. Children's Paintings and Words: Demonstrate the process and method of painting creation of young children in the form of dialogue, and present children's colorful emotional world and way of thinking. It is a window and bridge to understand children, read children's drawing language, and pay attention to children's future growth and development. The Voice of Growth: Target young children's ink painting and creation, allow children to grasp painting skills from hand to mind, from the sitting posture, method of holding a brush, the use of the lines and ink, to the application of experience modes and aesthetic rules, etc.

September 1997GLU. Glossar zu Niklas Luhmanns Theorie sozialer Systeme
by Claudio Baraldi, Giancarlo Corsi, Elena Esposito
Niklas Luhmanns Theorie sozialer Systeme wird heute immer eindeutiger als einer der interessantesten und fruchtbarsten Ansätze im Bereich der Sozialwissenschaften anerkannt. Dieses Glossar ist ein Arbeitsinstrument, das einerseits als Einleitung in die komplexe Theorie Luhmanns dienen kann und das andererseits die Anwendung der von dieser Theorie angebotenen Begriffe erleichtern dürfte. Die Form des Glossars soll eine »modulare« Einstellung zur Theorie ermöglichen. Die Erläuterungen zu einem Begriff umfassen durchschnittlich drei bis vier Seiten. Zu jedem Begriff gibt es eine Reihe bibliographischer Hinweise. Ein System von Verweisungen zwischen den Begriffen wurde durch »Lektürewege« ergänzt, die bestimmte Verbindungen zwischen den Begriffen in bezug auf thematische Felder - wie zum Beispiel Selbstreferenz, soziale Differenzierung, Konstruktivismus usw. - angeben.

March 2022Compound Polyhedra - Modular Origami
by Fergus Currie
Origami experts know that understanding shape and geometry is vital. But building many beautiful complex shapes is not a simple matter. Mathematics at school or college rarely prepares us for such a practical task. What origami method could possibly build complex structures like compound polyhedra? Fergus Currie's book of geometric models of advanced modular origami has full instructions and diagrams on how to make elegant, beautiful and practical models. It also includes an introduction with sections on the mathematics behind the models; a short history of modular origami; a section on tools and folding techniques, and a gallery of the finished models that are presented in the book.

Cocycles de groupe pour GLn et arrangements d’hyperplans
by Nicolas Bergeron, Pierre Charollois and Luis E. García
CRM Monograph Series Volume: 39; 2023; 127 pp MSC: Primary 11; 57; 14; 32; Note: This book is in French. Ce livre constitue un exposé détaillé de la série de cours donnés en 2020 par le Prof. Nicolas Bergeron, titulaire de la Chaire Aisenstadt au CRM de Montréal. L'objet de ce texte est une ample généralisation d'une famille d'identités classiques, notamment la formule d'addition de la fonction cotangente ou celle des séries d'Eisenstein. Le livre relie ces identités à la cohomologie de certains sous-groupes arithmétiques du groupe linéaire général. Il rend explicite ces relations au moyen de la théorie des symboles modulaires de rang supérieur, dévoilant finalement un lien concret entre des objets de nature topologique et algébrique. This book provides a detailed exposition of the material presented in a series of lectures given in 2020 by Prof. Nicolas Bergeron while he held the Aisenstadt Chair at the CRM in Montréal. The topic is a broad generalization of certain classical identities such as the addition formulas for the cotangent function and for Eisenstein series. The book relates these identities to the cohomology of arithmetic subgroups of the general linear group. It shows that the relations can be made explicit using the theory of higher rank modular symbols, ultimately unveiling a concrete link between topological and algebraic objects. Readership Graduate students and researchers interested in modular forms and/or special values of L-functions.

Transdiagnostic Emotion-Focused Therapy
A Clinical Guide for Transforming Emotional Pain
by Ladislav Timulak, Daragh Keogh
Emotion-Focused Therapy is an effective transdiagnostic treatment for the common symptoms that underlie depression, anxiety, and other related disorders.Given the high comorbidity of mental health symptoms and our growing understanding of psychopathology, transdiagnostic treatments are becoming more and more common. This book conceptualizes Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) as a transdiagnostic approach for treating a variety of mental health problems by accessing and transforming the underlying vulnerability of the core emotional pain and, in light of this, examining clusters of symptoms such as anxiety.The authors use elements of a modular approach that is the culmination of a decade-long research program. They target some symptom-level presentations, as well as the underlying emotional vulnerability that manifests in depression, anxiety, and other related disorders.This approach integrates a range of symptom-level EFT tasks, including tasks aimed at facilitating regulation of emotional distress, as well as tasks that specifically target self-worrying, rumination, perfectionism, and other discrete symptoms. Strategies that target clusters of symptoms, such as two-chair dialogues and self-interruption, are illustrated through richly detailed session transcripts.This book helps mental health professionals enable their clients to access emotional vulnerability, facilitate emotional regulation, guide emotional transformation processes, and engage in healthy interpersonal experiences.

Computer networking & communicationsApril 2008The Minimum You Need to Know About Service Oriented Architecture
by Roland Hughes
2008 Best Books Award Winner in the category Business: Computers/Technology/Internet - USA Book News. Service Oriented Architecture is all the rage these days. Dozens, if not hundreds of books are published on it, and more seem to show up every day. This book isn't awash with buzzwords and jargon. In truth, this book will probably be shunned by the SOA eltie. Rather than focus on the front end, this book focuses on the back end. That Heritage data silo/application where all of the other books just draw a box with "connect somehow" written on it. Most of them try to sell some expensive midleware along the way. Management can and should read the first five chapters in the book. These chapters aren't technical and may very well open their eyes. The remaining chapters are for those programmers given the "connect somehow" task. While OpenVMS is the Heritage platform of choice in this book and Ubuntu is used for the front end development, developers from other platforms should get a lot of ideas by reading this book.

Technology: general issuesDecember 2009Advancing the Competitiveness and Efficiency of the U.S. Construction Industry
by Committee on Advancing the Competitiveness and Productivity of the U.S. Construction Industry, National Research Council
Construction productivity--how well, how quickly, and at what cost buildings and infrastructure can be constructed--directly affects prices for homes and consumer goods and the robustness of the national economy. Industry analysts differ on whether construction industry productivity is improving or declining. Still, advances in available and emerging technologies offer significant opportunities to improve construction efficiency substantially in the 21st century and to help meet other national challenges, such as environmental sustainability. Advancing the Competitiveness and Efficiency of the U.S. Construction Industry identifies five interrelated activities that could significantly improve the quality, timeliness, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability of construction projects. These activities include widespread deployment and use of interoperable technology applications; improved job-site efficiency through more effective interfacing of people, processes, materials, equipment, and information; greater use of prefabrication, preassembly, modularization, and off-site fabrication techniques and processes; innovative, widespread use of demonstration installations; and effective performance measurement to drive efficiency and support innovation. The book recommends that the National Institute of Standards and Technology work with industry leaders to develop a collaborative strategy to fully implement and deploy the five activities

FictionFebruary 2017ANA
by Roberto Santiago
Ana Tramel: With A for attorney. With A for addicted to alcohol, pills and sex. And with A for anaesthetized (to emotions, adjectives, and sycophants). In this story absolutely everything revolves around her, the protagonist, narrator and dynamo of the plot. In her forties, she’s about to experience a journey to the dark side of the gambling world, and to come up against an international corporation that deals in thousands of millions and has hundreds of lawyers on their payroll. Said with the utmost humility: from this moment on, we are all AnaTramel. In ANA nothing is what it seems. Not one of the characters is exactly a saint. And as Patricia Highsmith said of one of her stories ‘they are going to see a woman do what no male protagonist in literature of the past forty years would dare: behave with compassion, heroism and expose her body and soul to humiliation’.
