Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Slide Making The aim of the present small volume is to supply in a concise form reliable information of all the best known methods for the production of lantern slide transparencies. At the present time many excellent lantern slide processes have fallen into desuetude and are seldom heard of, but it is hoped that their inclusion here will lead to enthusiastic workers resuscitating them on their; own behalf. Tothis end special care has been exercised in the preparation of the chapters dealing with such neglected processes as collodion (wet and dry) and collodio-aumen, in order that anyone who may be tempted to use them can at the outset be in possession of reliable formulae.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Photography: How to Make Lantern Slides The size of the lantern slide (and therefore of the lantern plate) is 3% x 4 inches; the British size is 3% x 3% inches, and it is well to remember this in the event of arranging exchanges of slides or the purchase of sets of British slides. The British size may be shown if a special carrier is used in the lantern, and this is inexpensive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Use of the Slide Rule Classic Reprint written by Allan Reginald Cullimore and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Use of the Slide Rule The need for a small book of this type arose in the work of teaching the use of the slide rule to engineering and industrial students; and this Manual is a direct result of sets of notes issued to classes consisting of engineering students and men of more or less practical experience. The book is not a treatise in any sense, its aim being to develop the ideas of the operator rather than to give empirical rules. Those rules that have been given are for the purpose of training the student in the formulation of processes, and it is not intended that they shall ever be committed to memory. The examples have been taken largely from Hydraulics and Mechanics, and while the actual field covered by specific problems is narrow, the idea has been to make them fundamental. It is hoped that these examples will serve the purpose of development better than the more specialized problems arising different branches of engineering. We f' recording or computing data should force himself to express. By the number of significant figures in the result, the accuracy of that result. The frequent habit of carrying results to a greater number of significant figures than the data warrant comes perilously near to lying with figures; it certainly creates a wrong impression as to the accuracy of the result. Certain mathematical constants can, however, be computed to any number of significant figures; for instance a may be expressed as or On the other hand, certain physical constants are very uncertain, even in the third place. Take for example the weight of a cubic foot of water generally given as lbs.; conditions of temperature and solution may easily alter the last figure of the three. With recorded data, however, the number of significant figures, as well as their character, gives very definite information. If we say that light travels 186000 miles per second, we do not mean that it covers 186000 miles to within the smallest fraction of an inch in one second of time, but that the distance covered is nearer 186000 miles than it is 185000 or 187000, and the accuracy is expressed by three significant figures. In this particular instance, it will he noticed that the three zeros to the right of the six, may or may not be significant figures. To prevent this ambiguity it has been suggested that results like the above be written 186 x which obviates the difficulty.

Download or read book Practical Decision Making in Health Care Ethics written by Raymond J. Devettere and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2009-12-04 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly fifteen years Practical Decision Making in Health Care Ethics has offered scholars and students a highly accessible and teachable alternative to the dominant principle-based theories in the field. Devettere’s approach is not based on an ethics of abstract obligations and duties, but, following Aristotle, on how to live a fulfilled and happy life—in short, an ethics of personal well-being grounded in prudence, the virtue of ethical decision making. This third edition is revised and updated and includes discussions of several landmark cases, including the tragic stories of Terri Schiavo and Jesse Gelsinger (the first death caused by genetic research). Devettere addresses new topics such as partial-birth abortion law, embryonic stem cell research, infant euthanasia in The Netherlands, recent Vatican statements on feeding tubes, organ donation after cardiac death, new developments in artificial hearts, clinical trials developed by pharmaceutical companies to market new drugs, ghostwritten scientific articles published in major medical journals, and controversial HIV/AIDS research in Africa. This edition also includes a new chapter on the latest social and political issues in American health care. Devettere’s engaging text relies on commonsense moral concepts and avoids academic jargon. It includes a glossary of legal, medical, and ethical terms; an index of cases; and thoroughly updated bibliographic essays at the end of each chapter that offer resources for further reading. It is a true classic, brilliantly conceived and executed, and is now even more valuable to undergraduates and graduate students, medical students, health care professionals, hospital ethics committees and institutional review boards, and general readers interested in philosophy, medicine, and the rapidly changing field of health care ethics.

Download or read book Advanced Macroeconomics written by Filipe R. Campante and published by LSE Press. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macroeconomic policy is one of the most important policy domains, and the tools of macroeconomics are among the most valuable for policy makers. Yet there has been, up to now, a wide gulf between the level at which macroeconomics is taught at the undergraduate level and the level at which it is practiced. At the same time, doctoral-level textbooks are usually not targeted at a policy audience, making advanced macroeconomics less accessible to current and aspiring practitioners. This book, born out of the Masters course the authors taught for many years at the Harvard Kennedy School, fills this gap. It introduces the tools of dynamic optimization in the context of economic growth, and then applies them to a wide range of policy questions – ranging from pensions, consumption, investment and finance, to the most recent developments in fiscal and monetary policy. It does so with the requisite rigor, but also with a light touch, and an unyielding focus on their application to policy-making, as befits the authors’ own practical experience. Advanced Macroeconomics: An Easy Guide is bound to become a great resource for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and practitioners alike.

Download or read book Classical Painting Atelier written by Juliette Aristides and published by Watson-Guptill. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to paint more like Manet and less like Jackson Pollock? Students of art hailed Classical Drawing Atelier, Juliette Aristides’s first book, as a dynamic return to the atelier educational model. Ateliers, popular in the nineteenth century, teach emerging artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. The educational process begins as students copy masterworks, then gradually progress to painting as their skills develop. The many artists at every level who learned from Classical Drawing Atelier have been clamoring for more of this sophisticated approach to teaching and learning. In Classical Painting Atelier, Aristides, a leader in the atelier movement, takes students step-by-step through the finest works of Old Masters and today’s most respected realist artists to reveal the principles of creating full-color realist still lifes, portraits, and figure paintings. Rich in tradition, yet practical for today’s artists, Classical Painting Atelier is ideal for serious art students seeking a timeless visual education.

Download or read book The Practice of Misuse written by Raymond Malewitz and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the age of Ikea Hackers and salvagepunks, this book charts the emergence of "rugged consumers" who creatively misuse, reuse, and repurpose the objects within their environments to suit their idiosyncratic needs and desires. Figures of both literary and material culture whose behavior evokes an American can-do ethic, rugged consumers mediate between older mythic models of self-sufficiency and the consumption-driven realities of our passive, post-industrial economy. Through their unorthodox encounters with the material world, rugged consumers show that using objects 'properly' is a conventional behavior that must be renewed and reinforced rather than a naturalized process that persists untroubled through time and space. At the same time, this Utopian ideal is rarely met: most examples of rugged consumerism conceal rather than foreground the ideological problems to which they respond and thus support or ignore rather than challenge the structures of late capitalist consumerism. By analyzing convergences and divergences between subjective material practices and collectivist politics, Raymond Malewitz shows how rugged consumerism both recodes and reflects the dynamic social history of objects in the United States from the 1960s to the present.
