Topographic Effects in Stratified Flows

Topographic Effects in Stratified Flows

Peter G. Baines

Cambridge University Press
1997
pokkari
With an emphasis on both theory and experiment, this text describes the behaviour of homogeneous and density-stratified fluids over and around topography. In examining the similarities between the flow of a river over a barrier or weir and the flow of the atmosphere over a mountain range, this book presents a comprehensive synthesis of this topic in terms suitable for scientists, engineers, teachers and students of fluid dynamics. With this book, Professor Baines makes a notable contribution to the fields of fluid mechanics and geophysical fluid dynamics. The text will be a great asset to graduate and advanced undergraduate students, as well as to research professionals.

Jesus' Defeat of Death

Jesus' Defeat of Death

Peter G. Bolt

Cambridge University Press
2003
sidottu
Peter Bolt explores the impact of Mark’s Gospel on its early readers in the first-century Graeco-Roman world. His book focuses upon the thirteen characters in Mark who come to Jesus for healing or exorcism and, using analytical tools of narrative and reader-response criticism, explores their crucial role in the communication of the Gospel. Bolt suggests that early readers of Mark would be persuaded that Jesus’ dealings with the suppliants show him casting back the shadow of death and that this in itself is preparatory for Jesus’ final defeat of death in resurrection. Enlisting a variety of ancient literary and non-literary sources in an attempt to illuminate this first-century world, this book gives special attention to illness, magic and the Roman imperial system. This is a new approach to Mark which attempts to break the impasse between narrative and historical studies and will appeal to scholars and students alike.

sidottu
An odyssey of a mother and daughter who fought the outback and won... but at a terrible cost. Susana Honan, from Ireland, aged 18, arrived in Brisbane on the Gauntlet in 1878 and in 1886 married the owner/builder of the Royal Hotel in Birdsville, Qld. She had three children and her husband died during the third pregnancy. She managed that hotel or Tattersalls Hotel, also in Birdsville intermittently until 1912. In 1913 her third child, Alberta, married John James Scott, manager and part owner of Mount Leonard Station, a large and successful cattle property in the outback of western Queensland, 100 miles east of Birdsville. Alberta had five children between 1914 and 1920 and almost immediately after the birth of her fifth child her husband was drowned trying to recover cattle that a drover had abandoned at a time of unprecedented flooding of the Diamantina River system. Soon after this, she returned with her children to a life in Adelaide. To add to this her brother was killed by a sniper in WWI and later in WWII her son was executed by the Japanese in Ambon. Despite these hardships she gave her children a happy home and a good education. These two women lived a total of 71 years after their marriages, but only shared 11 of those with their husbands.

Flying and Other Doctoring

Flying and Other Doctoring

Peter G Morton

Peter G Morton
2021
pokkari
For forty-six years Dr Peter Morton worked in the Australian bush. He was a GP, a hospital administrator, he worked for the Army, he flew with the Royal Flying Doctor Service. He saw the leaps in sophistication of the practice of medicine, even in the remotest places. But it is not only the love of his profession that informs these pages. Peter Morton loves the bush and the people who live in its varied landscapes. It is Peter's own delight in adventure and travel and the people one meets on the track that give his book its warmth. And Peter wasn't alone: his wife Leonore, his children and a legion of friends have shared his travels. This book is not just a hymn to rural medicine, it celebrates mateship in the best Australian way, by having a yarn.

The Cosmopolitan Empire

The Cosmopolitan Empire

Peter G Myers

various Australia publishers
2023
pokkari
This book is about conspiracies in high places. Conspiracies it covers include the assassination of JFK, the attacks of 9/11, the Covid-19 Lockdown & Vaccine Mandates, and Malaysia Airlines MH370.Other conspiracy books allege that there is just one high-level conspiracy, but this one maintains that there are four-British (Anglo-American Imperial), Globalist, Zionist and Green-Left. They are forced to share power, so they operate as factions.The Globalists are attempting to implement the World State advocated by H. G. Wells. Aldous Huxley's book Brave New World and George Orwell's book Nineteen Eighty-Four are both warnings about what Wells' World State would be like. Huxley depicted dumbing-down with sex, drugs and entertainment; Orwell depicted Speech Codes and Thought Police. Both have turned out to be correct.

Holocaust Reparations and the Gaza Genocide

Holocaust Reparations and the Gaza Genocide

Peter G Myers

Polarity Press
2025
pokkari
Germany is still paying Holocaust Reparations to Jewish victims of the Nazis, 80 years after the end of World War II. Israel has committed its own genocide of Palestinians, but they receive nothing.The issue is not money, but the claim of Holocaust Uniqueness. If the Nazi Holocaust is unique, no other genocide is comparable, and Israel cannot be held accountable. Does one Holocaust justify another?To stop the 2-state solution, which the Palestinian Authority wanted, Netanyahu built up the Hamas terrorists and allowed them to receive millions of dollars in cash payments. He was aware of Hamas' attack plan for October 7, he let it happen, and he stood down the IDF, to create consensus for destroying Gaza and ethnic-cleansing the territories.His settler allies have a messianic agenda. They want to expel Palestinians, annex their lands, and build the Third Temple on the site of Al Aqsa mosque. After that, their Messiah would rule the world. The West must list them as 'terrorist', as it lists Hamas. Extremists on all sides must be marginalised.

Ethics, Economics and International Relations

Ethics, Economics and International Relations

Peter G. Brown

Edinburgh University Press
2007
nidottu
'A pioneering work in ethics and economics for the new global era raising all the hard questions that we need to think about in the coming decades, and proposing a radically new way of thinking about how the global community should function.' Peter Singer, IRA W. De Camp Professor of Bioethics, Princeton University 'One of those rare books whose every chapter is a source of both exhilaration and despair.' William E. Rees, University of British Columbia In the first edition of this remarkable book Peter G. Brown identified three challenges that lay ahead of us: * to come up with an adequate account of our minimal obligations to each other, and to the rest of the natural order; * to redefine and reshape the institutions of economics, government, and civil society to reflect those obligations; * and to re-conceptualize and redirect relations between nations so as to foster those institutions and discharge those obligations. In this second edition he revisits and expands on those original ideas and draws some new, and innovative, conclusions that will redirect what we do and give substance and direction to the institutions that must be adopted if life is to flourish.Finding our historical attitude of 'full-human- use' toward the environment unsatisfactory, Brown offers an alternative: an 'all-species- use'. What he calls 'the commonwealth of life' and the acceptance of this reasoning has vital implications for all life that share this planet.

The Men Who Changed the World

The Men Who Changed the World

Peter G. Cooksley

Sutton Publishing Ltd
2003
sidottu
When the Wright brothers made their momentous first ever manned powered flight at Kittyhawk in North Carolina on 17 December 1903, the event heralded the birth of one of the most far-reaching inventions in the history of mankind. Peter Cooksley opens his narrative account with an overview of mankind's fascination with flight, in fact and in legend, before examining in the first half of the book the early lives and background of the Wright brothers. He proceeds to review their early trials with gliders and the steps that led them to building and flying the world's first powered aircraft. The success of the Wright Flyer is described and the granting of manufacturing licences for the aircraft around the world. The second half of the book explores the development of flight by other aviation pioneers, presented in chronological order of their greatest achievements. The reader can compare men like Cayley, Lilienthal, Maxim, Pilcher Santos Dumont, Cody and Bleriot with the Wrights and with one another. A comprehensive selection of archive photographs, illustrations, line drawings and maps complements the author's informative narrative.
