Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Halma es una novela del escritor espa�ol Benito P�rez Gald�s publicada en el oto�o de 1895, dentro del ciclo "espiritualista" de las "Novelas espa�olas contempor�neas". Hab�a sido concluida en su casa santanderina de "San Quint�n", en octubre de ese mismo a�o. Recuperando el personaje de Nazar�n lo confronta y al�a con Catalina de Halma, otro m�s en la galer�a de personajes-h�roes movidos por un puro y elemental ideal cristiano, junto a la Benina de Misericordia y a �ngel Guerra.Haciendo una lectura muy personal de la socializaci�n en el medio rural y el colectivismo agrario que conmov�an el caciquismo finisecular espa�ol contempor�neo a Gald�s, el escritor concibi� el personaje de Catalina de Artal, condesa de Halma-Lautemberg, "ejemplo de piedad, rectitud y obediencia". Iconoclasta con su propia clase y descontenta ante el esquema social de su �poca, la arist�crata concibe una especie de comunidad agr�cola de organizaci�n monacal con el objetivo concreto de practicar la caridad a gran escala. Y para ponerla en marcha, resultando insuficientes los bienes de su herencia, recurre a la ayuda del Estado y de la Iglesia. El sistema ideado por Halma para hacerle frente a la miseria nacional es m�s sencillo que el que hab�a puesto en juego Nazar�n en la trama de la novela que lleva su nombre y que precede a Halma, cuya protagonista solo pretende "ofrecer una alternativa caritativa a la sociedad burguesa sin atacar sus bases".

Recuperando el personaje de Nazar�n lo confronta y al�a con Catalina de Halma, otro m�s en la galer�a de personajes-h�roes movidos por un puro y elemental ideal cristiano, junto a la Benina de Misericordia y a �ngel Guerra (tras su conversi�n).Gald�s prescindi� en esta novela de los escenarios suburbiales de la capital de Espa�a que sirven de fondo a Nazar�n y Misericordia. El marco de la acci�n, sencillo y muy teatral, es el caseron familiar de Pedralba, lugar ficticio de la geograf�a literaria del novelista, escondido, como Orbajosa, en las entra�as de "la Espa�a profunda". Tambi�n son escasos los personajes que sostienen la trama: la arist�crata Catalina, viuda de un diplom�tico alem�n tras un breve matrimonio; Urrea, primo de Catalina; Nazar�n y Beatriz (que casi en un traslado literario-espacial llegan desde la novela de Nazar�n); el sacerdote Manuel Fl�rez, al servicio del Marqu�s de Feramor y digno representante del dogma y el tradicionalismo cat�licos.

Download or read book Wheels Life and Other Mathematical Amusements written by Martin Gardner and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games columns in Scientific American inspired and entertained several generations of mathematicians and scientists. Gardner in his crystal-clear prose illuminated corners of mathematics, especially recreational mathematics, that most people had no idea existed. His playful spirit and inquisitive nature invite the reader into an exploration of beautiful mathematical ideas along with him. These columns were both a revelation and a gift when he wrote them; no one--before Gardner--had written about mathematics like this. They continue to be a marvel. This is the original 1983 edition and contains columns published from 1970-1972. It includes three columns on the game of Life.

Download or read book The Path to Post Galilean Epistemology written by Danilo Capecchi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-08 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book casts new light on the process that in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries led to a profound transformation in the study of nature with the emergence of mechanistic philosophy, the new mixed mathematics, and the establishment of the experimental approach. It is argued that modern European science originated from Hellenistic mathematics not so much because of rediscovery of the latter but rather because its “applied” components, namely mechanics, optics, harmonics, and astronomy, and their methodologies continued to be transmitted throughout the Middle Ages without serious interruption. Furthermore, it is proposed that these “applied” components played a role in their entirety; thus, for example, “new” mechanics derived not only from “old” mechanics but also from harmonics, optics, and astronomy. Unlike other texts on the subject, the role of mathematicians is stressed over that of philosophers of nature and the focus is particularly on epistemological aspects. In exploring Galilean and post-Galilean epistemology, attention is paid to the contributions of Galileo’s disciples and also the impact of his enemies. The book will appeal to both historians of science and scientists.

This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Currently, Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH) is a hot area of research on inorganic layered materials. The present book, Applications of Layered Double Hydroxides, edited by Dr. Rjib Lochan Goswamee and Dr. Pinky Saikia, is a collection of articles from various researchers from different parts of the world mainly on structure and property relationships of various types of LDH and their related application prospects. How these application prospects can be related to the most pressing problems of humanity like drug delivery, global warming, green catalysis, electrochemical energy storage and generation etc. are clearly discussed in the articles inside. The book provides a thorough up-to-date review of recent literature on applications of LDH available in the global scientific and technical media. For example, the book lucidly describes the behaviour of LDH nanocarriers in biological fluids, their low cytotoxicity and high levels of cellular internalization, and high drug loading capacity. Similarly, the book examines why hybrid nanocomposites of LDH-MOF are considered promising materials due to their diverse functionality, flexible properties and tailored end-use properties. Likewise, application of LDH in secondary batteries and electro-chemical supercapacitors with a thorough up-to-date review is included in the book. Also, basic research articles on structural properties and measurements of a special class of unique LDH Li-Al-LDHs are included. Editors also have written their own articles on their findings on the prospective application of dispersions of LDH nanocomposites on structured catalysts for green-house gas emission. Overall, the book gives a short glimpse of wonderful opportunities that LDH can provide in solving many global socio-economic problems of today"--

Download or read book A Field Guide to the Birds of Hawaii and the Tropical Pacific written by Harold Douglas Pratt and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first field guide to the identification of the birds of the islands of the tropical Pacific, including the Hawaiian Islands, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, southeastern Polynesia, and Micronesia. It is intended both as a reference for the expert and as an introduction to birding in the region for the novice. Small enough to be carried afield, it contains much previously unpublished information about behavior, vocalizations, ecology, and distribution. The forty-five color plates depict all plumages of all bird species that breed in the islands, as well as of those that regularly visit them and the surrounding oceans, and of most species believed to be extinct on the islands. Black-and-white figures show many of the rarer visitors. Introductory sections discuss the tropical Pacific as an environment for birds, problems of birding on islands, and bird conservation. Appendixes include maps of the island groups and a thorough bibliography.
