Ship Stability for Masters and Mates explores all aspects of ship stability and ship strength, squat, and interaction and trim, as well as materials stresses and forces. Organized into 56 chapters, the book looks at the relationship between ship stability and ship motion, with emphasis on group weights in a ship. It also explains how TPCs are calculated for a range of drafts extending beyond the light and loaded drafts, along with form coefficients, including the coefficient of fineness of the waterplane area.The book explains how to perform KB, BM, and KM calculations and make graphics on metacentric diagrams. It considers large-angle stability, the effect of beam and freeboard on stability, and hydrostatic curves and values for vessels that are initially on even keel. The reader is also introduced to free-surface effects of slack tanks with divisional bulkheads, how side winds affect ship stability, and the correlation between freeboard and stability curves. Other chapters focus on timber ship freeboard marks, procedures and calculations for drydocking and stability, and ship squat in open water and in confined channels. The book also includes extracts from the 1998 Merchant Shipping (Load Line) Regulations Number MSN 1752(M).This book is intended for students seeking to obtain Transport Certificates of Competency for Deck Officers and Engineering Officers and STCW equivalent International qualifications, as well as Chief Mates and Officers on Watch (Officers in Charge) on board merchant ships and other maritime personnel, port authorities, marine consultants, nautical study lecturers, and marine superintendents.

THE BESTSELLER THAT DEFINED AN AGE, NOW WITH A NEW FOREWORDFrom two award-winning business journalists comes the rollicking tale of one of the largest corporate takeovers in American history'The most bizarre financial mock-epic of our age. Read it open-mouthed; wonder and shudder' Independent‘One of the best business books of all time’ EconomistThe fight to control food and tobacco giant RJR Nabisco during October and November of 1988 was more than just the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Marked by brazen displays of ego not seen in American business for decades, it became the high point of a new gilded age, and its repercussions are still being felt. The ultimate story of greed and glory, Barbarians at the Gate is the gripping account of these two frenzied months, of deal makers and publicity flaks, of an old-line industrial powerhouse that became the victim of the ruthless and rapacious style of finance in the 1980s.Written with the bravado of a novel and researched with the diligence of a sweeping cultural history, here is the unforgettable story of the takeover in all its brutality.‘A soap opera of greed and clashing egos’ New York Times

Human Microbiota in Health and Disease

Human Microbiota in Health and Disease

Bryan Tungland

Academic Press Inc
2018
nidottu
Human Gut Microbiota in Health and Disease: From Pathogenesis to Therapy is a comprehensive discussion of all the aspects associated with gut microbiota early colonization, its development and maintenance, and its symbiotic relationship with the host to promote health. Chapters illustrate the complex mechanisms and metabolic signalling pathways related to how the gut microbiota maintain proper regulation of glucose, lipid and energy homeostasis and immune response, while mediating inflammatory processes involved in the etiology of many chronic disease conditions. Details are provided on the primary etiological factors of chronic disease, the effects of gut dysbiosis and its associated disease conditions, while providing an overview of therapeutic strategies involving dietary fiber and prebiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation therapy and probiotics. Throughout the chapters, a comprehensive review of peer-reviewed animal and human studies is provided as evidence related to the history of human exposure, safety, tolerance, toxicity, nomenclature, and clinical efficacy of utilizing prebiotic fructans, s, as well as probiotic intervention, and dietary modification in the prevention and intervention of chronic disease conditions. With common use today of pharmaceutical medicine in treating symptoms, and frequent overuse of antibiotics in chronic disease within mainstream medical practice, understanding the etiological mechanisms of dysbiosis-induced chronic disease, and natural approaches that offer prevention and potential cures for these diseases is of vital importance to overall human health.

For many developers, debugging is about making problems go away, not understanding the system. This fundamental misalignment perverts every aspect of the process and leads to: fixes that don't actually fix the problem (or worse, introduce new ones) bug reports that are unceremoniously closed out as "works for me" or "can't reproduce" or "will not fix" frustrated users who are told to "try restarting" or "log out and log back in" As bad as these are, much more insidious effects are felt when a problem appears to be debugged but hasn't been truly understood or resolved. These ersatz fixes are worse than nothing: not only do they leave the fundamental problem in place for another day or another customer or another outage (one that might have manifestations that are more subtle or more damaging or both), they give the software engineer the distorted sense of having resolved the problem and this false confidence leads to new development and different bugs -- and debugging devolves into collective superstition passed on by oral tradition. Our view is that debugging is an essential part of the craft of software development. By thinking of debugging as a primary endeavor, developers are liberated to be more rigorous about it and can afford the luxury of complete understanding. By considering debugging as opportunity rather than setback, developers can take a craftsman's pleasure in it, mastering its nuances and deriving intrinsic satisfaction from doing it well. This is the thesis of this book: that debugging must be rigorous and empirical -- but that within that rigor, software engineers can discover a joy unique in the craft.

Wagner and Philosophy

Wagner and Philosophy

Bryan Magee

Penguin Books Ltd
2001
pokkari
Wagner was one of the few major composers who studied philosophy seriously. Bryan Magee places the composer's artistic development in the context of the philosophy of his age, and gives us the first detailed and comprehensive study of the close links between Wagner and the philosophers - from the pre-Marxist socialists to Feuerbach and Schopenhauer. Magee explores the relationship between words and music, between the conscious and the unconscious mind, between art and philosophy. It tackles soberly and judiciously the Wagner whose paranoia, egocentricity and anti-semitism are repugnant, as well as the Wagner of artistic genius. The resulting text illuminates Wagner and the music-dramas in altogether new ways.
