The Worlds of Sf, F & H Volume IV

The Worlds of Sf, F & H Volume IV

Robert N. Stephenson

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
An anthology of stories in varying genres from around the world.From the wonders created by Bo Balder to the mystery by Marcie Franks a vision of a world not like our own can be had. From Egypt to Germany these stories have come and in their union, they hope to deliver a wider world view than stories just from one nationality and nation.The editor, Robert N Stephenson, is an award-winning author who believes the world can be better served by bringing our creative expressions together and an opportunity for different voices was created. You will find stories about pirates on the high seas, aliens who just don't get along, a vampire with social issues and a town lost to the promises of a technology no one understands. Only here will you see the stories from Argentina and Romania together, where Italy shares the stage with Russia and where the dominant voices are not those of the USA, but The Netherlands. It is a small world after all. Altair Australia Pty Ltd is endeavouring to spread these different voices across the globe and to show readers there is more out there if you just know the author's names, and have experienced some of their writing. Without the critical feature of needing to make money, this anthology is kept as close to cost price as possible in all formats so readers can easily access the material. Share your books, point readers this way and in turn become part of this project's endeavours - to unite the world with words.

The Accokeek Creek site, in Prince George’s County, Maryland, sits at the spot where the Piscataway Creek enters the Potomac, across the river from Mt. Vernon. The owner of the property, Alice Ferguson, excavated the site and wrote notes on her work, which became the basis for this volume. The site, which was also known as Moyaone, contained evidence for occupation from the Archaic to the historic period. Excavation revealed remains of a village, burials, and many classes of artifacts, including pottery, pipes, chipped stone tools, and items made from shell, antlers, and bone.

A Thousand Stars Explode in the Sky

A Thousand Stars Explode in the Sky

Simon Stephens; David Eldridge; Robert Holman

Methuen Drama
2010
nidottu
On a farm in the North East of England a family gathers. Five brothers and four generations feature in an epic play about hope, love, fear and the very end of time. A Thousand Stars Explode in the Sky is a refreshingly subtle and compassionate vision of the world on the edge of apocalypse. Within a cosmological context, the focus is on a single family, their relations with each other and their unreconciled regrets, soon to become permanent. With an ensemble of strong, engaging characters, there are knotty, realistic family dynamics and a palimpsest of recent family history. The characters and dialogue are naturalistic but the serious themes are elucidated and alleviated with humour and quirky, surreal touches. The play represents a unique collboration between three of the UK's pre-eminent stage writers. The ambition of the partnership is matched by the ambition of the play's sweeping scope. Whilst the three voices collide, they also ring out individually without sacrificing the piece's coherent wholeness, and the play represents a rare, fascinating study in stage collaboration.

Has Obama Made the World a More Dangerous Place?

Has Obama Made the World a More Dangerous Place?

Bret Stephens; Fareed Zakaria; Robert Kagan; Anne-Marie Slaughter

The fourteenth semi-annual Munk Debate, which will be held in Toronto on November 5, 2014, pits Bret Stephens and Robert Kagan against Fareed Zakaria and Anne-Marie Slaughter to debate the legacy of President Obama.From Ukraine to the Middle East to China, the United States is redefining its role in international affairs. Alliance building, public diplomacy, and eschewing traditional warfare in favour of the focused use of hard power such as drones and special forces are all hallmarks of the so-called Obama Doctrine. Is this a farsighted foreign policy for the United States and the world in the twenty-first century — one that acknowledges and embraces the increasing diffusion of power among states and non-state actors? Or, is an America “leading from behind” a boon for the nations and blocs who want to roll back economic globalization, international law, and the spread of democracy and human rights?In this edition of the Munk Debates, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Bret Stephens and famed historian and foreign policy commentator Robert Kagan square off against CNN’s Fareed Zakaria and noted academic and political commentator Anne-Marie Slaughter to debate the legacy of President Obama. With ISIS looking to reshape the Middle East, Russia increasingly at odds with the rest of the West, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at a standstill, the Munk Debate on Foreign Policy asks: Has Obama’s foreign policy taken the U.S. in the right direction?

John Wiley Sons Inc
2000
sidottu
Classic, comprehensive, and up-to-date Metal Fatigue in Engineering Second Edition For twenty years, Metal Fatigue in Engineering has served as an important textbook and reference for students and practicing engineers concerned with the design, development, and failure analysis of components, structures, and vehicles subjected to repeated loading. Now this generously revised and expanded edition retains the best features of the original while bringing it up to date with the latest developments in the field. As with the First Edition, this book focuses on applied engineering design, with a view to producing products that are safe, reliable, and economical. It offers in-depth coverage of today’s most common analytical methods of fatigue design and fatigue life predictions/estimations for metals. Contents are arranged logically, moving from simple to more complex fatigue loading and conditions. Throughout the book, there is a full range of helpful learning aids, including worked examples and hundreds of problems, references, and figures as well as chapter summaries and "design do’s and don’ts" sections to help speed and reinforce understanding of the material. The Second Edition contains a vast amount of new information, including: *Enhanced coverage of micro/macro fatigue mechanisms, notch strain analysis, fatigue crack growth at notches, residual stresses, digital prototyping, and fatigue design of weldments *Nonproportional loading and critical plane approaches for multiaxial fatigue *A new chapter on statistical aspects of fatigue

The Rhetoric of Power in Late Antiquity

The Rhetoric of Power in Late Antiquity

Elizabeth DePalma Digeser; Robert M. Frakes; Justin Stephens

Bloomsbury Academic
2020
nidottu
Late Antiquity, the period of transition from the crisis of Roman Empire in the third century to the Middle Ages, has traditionally been considered only in terms of the 'decline' from classical standards. Recent classical scholarship strives to consider this period on its own terms. Taking the reign of Constantine the Great as its starting point, this book examines the unique intersection of rhetoric, religion and politics in Late Antiquity. Expert scholars come together to examine ancient rhetorical texts to explore the ways in which late antique authors drew upon classical traditions, presenting Roman and post-Roman religious and political institutions in order to establish a desired image of a 'new era'. This book provides new insights into how the post-Roman Germanic West, Byzantine East and Muslim South appropriated and transformed the political, intellectual and cultural legacy inherited from the late Roman Empire and its borderlands.
