Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intuitive Alphabet by artist Michele Oka Doner is both an alphabet book and an artistic meditation on the connection between humans and nature. Minimal text, handwritten by the artist, is paired with photographs of sea objects that represent forms.
In Intuitive Alphabet, acclaimed artist Michele Oka Doner has created a personal interpretation of the alphabet book as well as a deeply thoughtful, artistic, and inspiring exploration of the fundamental connection between humans and natures. Minimal text, handwritten by the artist, is paired with photographs of sea objects that represent forms, such as “A is For Animal,” and “S is for Spiral.” The result is a thoroughly original, evocative, and thought-provoking work of art that underscores the profound and fundamental links between humans and nature and reminds us that life itself came from the sea.
Oka Doner grew up in Miami Beach combing the sand for treasures—shells, stones, coral—that formed her own alphabet well before she knew how to read. This elegantly designed art book is an homage to that world of discovery and conveys a profound message about looking and seeing. On an even deeper level, Intuitive Alphabet offers insights into the ways in which language has evolved and is learned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic new way to understand intuition, already implemented around the world at top companies and business schools Neuroscience shows that instinct has a leading role in complex decision-making, yet imaginative play is the most direct means of activating our creativity and problem-solving abilities.

Download or read book A Breast Cancer Alphabet written by Madhulika Sikka and published by Crown. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A definitive and approachable guide to life during, and after, breast cancer The biggest risk factor for breast cancer is simply being a woman. Madhulika Sikka's A Breast Cancer Alphabet offers a new way to live with and plan past the hardest diagnosis that most women will ever receive: a personal, practical, and deeply informative look at the road from diagnosis to treatment and beyond. What Madhulika Sikka didn't foresee when initially diagnosed, and what this book brings to life so vividly, are the unexpected and minute challenges that make navigating the world of breast cancer all the trickier. A Breast Cancer Alphabet is an inspired reaction to what started as a personal predicament. This A-Z guide to living with breast cancer goes where so many fear to tread: sex (S is for Sex - really?), sentimentality (J is for Journey - it's a cliché we need to dispense with), hair (H is for Hair - yes, you can make a federal case of it) and work (Q is for Quitting - there'll be days when you feel like it). She draws an easy-to-follow, and quite memorable, map of her travels from breast cancer neophyte to seasoned veteran. As a prominent news executive, Madhulika had access to the most cutting edge data on the disease's reach and impact. At the same time, she craved the community of frank talk and personal insight that we rely on in life's toughest moments. This wonderfully inventive book navigates the world of science and story, bringing readers into Madhulika's mind and experience in a way that demystifies breast cancer and offers new hope for those living with it.

Download or read book Universal Intuitive and Permanent Pictograms written by Daniel Bühler and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a complete human-centered design process (ISO 9241:210) that had two goals: to design universal, intuitive, and permanent pictograms and to develop a process for designing suitable pictograms. The book analyzes characteristics of visual representations, grounded in semiotics. It develops requirements for pictogram contents, relying on embodied cognition, and it derives content candidates in empirical studies on four continents. The book suggests that visual perception is universal, intuitive, and permanent. Consequently, it derives guidelines for content design from visual perception. Subsequently, pictogram prototypes are produced in a research through design process, using the guidelines and the content candidates. Evaluation studies suggest that the prototypes are a success. They are more suitable than established pictograms and they should be considered universal, intuitive, and permanent. In conclusion, a technical design process is proposed.

Download or read book Semirings Automata Languages written by W. Kuich and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automata theory is the oldest among the disciplines constituting the subject matter of this Monograph Series: theoretical computer science. Indeed, automata theory and the closely related theory of formal languages form nowadays such a highly developed and diversified body of knowledge that even an exposition of "reasonably important" results is not possible within one volume. The purpose of this book is to develop the theory of automata and formal languages, starting from ideas based on linear algebra. By what was said above, it should be obvious that we do not intend to be encyclopedic. However, this book contains the basics of regular and context-free languages (including some new results), as well as a rather complete theory of pushdown automata and variations (e. g. counter automata). The wellknown AFL theory is extended to power series ("AFP theory"). Additional new results include, for instance, a grammatical characterization of the cones and the principal cones of context-free languages, as well as new decidability results.
Download or read book Treasure Trove in Passing Vessels written by Dave Harris and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-04 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Every person has at least ten-plus stories inside," says author Dave Harris, who lives in Poulsbo, Washington, after years of international traveling with the Air Force and Army Corps of Engineers, teaching college, writing, and earning his master's degree in mass communication from the University of Denver. In Treasure Trove in Passing Vessels, he introduces intriguing people and experiences he's encountered internationally over six decades. Presenting these concise, true tales has been Dave's lifelong goal. Herein are observations through eyes of common people "ravished by the glory of God." These stories trigger your recollections where you'll see God moving in unusual or amusing ways. The stories lead you to take your own spiritual temperature. If you find yourself skipping stories with spiritual overtones, it's not spirituality that you avoid, but God. If you avoid God, ask yourself if you are running to or from something, and gather more facts. One chooses a destiny-spiritual intimacy with or separation from God, beginning now-by the kind of companionship and interests we prefer daily. Gentleman God forces nobody to spend time with Him-now or forever. But He cherishes moments with sons and daughters, His own handiwork. What stories and destiny describe you?
