Physics describes how motion works in everyday life. Clothes washers and rolling pins are undergoing rotational motion. A flying bird uses forces. Tossing a set of keys involves equations that describe motion (kinematics). Two people bumping into each other while cooking in a kitchen involves linear momentum.This textbook covers topics related to units, kinematics, forces, energy, momentum, circular and rotational motion, Newton’s general equation for gravity, and simple harmonic motion (things that go back and forth). A math review is also included, with a focus on algebra and trigonometry. The goal of this textbook is to present a clear introduction to these topics, in small pieces, with examples that readers can relate to. Each topic comes with a short summary, a fully solved example, and practice problems. Full solutions are included for over 400 problems. This book is a very useful study guide for students in introductory physics courses, including high school and college students in an algebra-based introductory physics course and even students in an introductory calculus-level course. It can also be used as a standalone textbook in courses where derivations are not emphasized.Key features: Organizes a difficult subject into short and clearly written sections. Can be used alongside any introductory physics textbook. Presents clear examples for every problem type discussed in the textbook.Michael Antosh teaches physics at the University of Rhode Island, USA. He obtained a Ph.D. in physics from Brown University.

J.-K. Huysmans (1848–1907) now stands firmly recognized as a significant and influential writer, often hailed as a pioneer of modernism. While his novel À rebours (Against Nature) remains infamous for its decadent protagonist retreating into a realm of artifice and dreams, Huysmans’ literary contributions are far-reaching. Ruth Antosh explores Huysmans’ life and work, illustrating how they reflect France’s era of profound social and artistic change. In this context, Huysmans’ lesser-known writings, such as his correspondence, early fiction, art criticism and the esteemed mid-career novel En rade (Stranded), cherished by the Surrealists, demand greater critical attention. This biography compellingly argues that Huysmans’ life was an unwavering quest for spiritual and aesthetic fulfilment, evident through his meaningful friendships and prolific writings.

This volume offers a critical insight into the life and work of the controversial Victorian explorer and translator Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890). Analysis focuses on his travel accounts and erotic translations, which both re-elaborated and challenged dominant Victorian discourses on race, gender and sexuality, generating controversies in the fields of anthropology, sexology and medicine. The premise of the study is that Burton entertained an ambiguous relationship with the colonial institutions: on the one hand, he pursued the colonial project, while on the other, he was an irreverent outsider who clashed with the imperial authorities. As this investigation reveals, he defied British sociocultural norms by appropriating and importing the rituals and languages of the colonial subjects. The volume examines Burton’s ‘impersonations’ of multiple masculine identities in the countries that he visited, which involved elaborate processes of both identification and dis-identification. The author argues that these impersonations enabled a series of queer encounters which broke down the barriers between imperial Self and colonised Other, and led Burton to embody several self-conscious, performative constructions of masculinity. Burton’s life and works are analysed in light of recent critical and theoretical debates.
