This second volume of the October Harvest is so called only because this collection was gathered for the first time in the month of October. It continues dealing mainly with love, but it also contains an actual epic poem of a very romantic story, which is best labelled as a fantasy, but it could also be regarded as a drama or play with time dimensions, ?The Forest? in the middle of the collection. It's actually the author's first story written as a very young man and much later rewritten as a poem in English.

Speciesism: Why It Is Wrong and the Implications of Rejecting It

Speciesism: Why It Is Wrong and the Implications of Rejecting It

Magnus Vinding

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2015
nidottu
What can justify discrimination against other sentient beings? In this book, Magnus Vinding explores the issue of species discrimination. He argues that speciesism - discrimination based on species membership - is unjustifiable, and proceeds to examine the practical implications of this conclusion. This examination reveals more than a few ways in which our behavior and attitudes need to change profoundly. "Most people agree that discriminating against someone on the basis of gender, sex or skin color is morally objectionable, but what about species membership? Speciesism: Why It Is Wrong and the Implications of Rejecting It makes a compelling case that this form of discrimination has no justification either, and addresses the most significant implications. These include both the rejection of animal exploitation and the rejection of the idea that we have no reason to help nonhuman animals in need of aid, including when they are suffering in the wild for natural reasons. This book is likely to challenge many of our assumptions, and will encourage us to think deeper about the moral consideration of nonhuman animals."- Oscar Horta, professor of moral philosophy at University of Santiago de Compostela, author of Making a Stand for Animals "Humans hurt, harm and kill billions of sentient beings. We routinely treat nonhuman animals in ways that would earn the perpetrators a life sentence in prison if the victims were humans of comparable sentience. Magnus Vinding makes a compelling case for a moral revolution in human behaviour toward nonhuman individuals. Highly recommended."- David Pearce, author of The Hedonistic Imperative and Can Biotechnology Abolish Suffering?

You Are Them

You Are Them

Magnus Vinding

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
nidottu
What follows if we reject belief in any kind of non-physical soul and instead embrace a physicalist picture of the world? A key implication, this book argues, is a naturalization of personal identity and ethics - a radically different way of thinking about ourself. "A precondition of rational behaviour is a basic understanding of the nature of oneself and the world. Any fusion of ethical and decision-theoretic rationality into a seamless package runs counter to some of our deepest intuitions. But You Are Them makes a powerful case. Magnus Vinding's best book to date. Highly recommended."- David Pearce, author of The Hedonistic Imperative and Can Biotechnology Abolish Suffering?

Production Volume Rendering

Production Volume Rendering

Due to limited publicly available software and lack of documentation, those involved with production volume rendering often have to start from scratch creating the necessary elements to make their system work. Production Volume Rendering: Design and Implementation provides the first full account of volume rendering techniques used for feature animation and visual effects production. It covers the theoretical underpinnings as well as the implementation of a working renderer. The book offers two paths toward understanding production volume rendering. It describes:Modern production volume rendering techniques in a generic context, explaining how the techniques fit together and how the modules are used to achieve real-world goalsImplementation of the techniques, showing how to translate abstract concepts into concrete, working code and how the ideas work together to create a complete systemAs an introduction to the field and an overview of current techniques and algorithms, this book is a valuable source of information for programmers, technical directors, artists, and anyone else interested in how production volume rendering works.Web ResourceThe scripts, data, and source code for the book’s renderer are freely available at https://github.com/pvrbook/pvr. Readers can see how the code is implemented and acquire a practical understanding of how various design considerations impact scalability, extensibility, generality, and performance.

Practical Python

Practical Python

Magnus Lie Hetland

APress
2002
nidottu
Instant Python with Ten Instant Projects offers a highly practical, readable guide to the Python programming language. Following a succinct yet concise overview of the installation process, Hetland brings the reader up to speed regarding the general programming precepts common to every high-level language, including datatypes, conditionals and looping, and modularity. Notably, Hetland takes great care to provide a thorough introduction to Python's potentially confusing datatype offering, including arrays, dictionaries, lists, and tuples, employing numerous examples aimed towards familiarizing the reader with the sometimes subtle differences of each. Armed with the foundational knowledge, readers are then introduced to Python's file-handling, database, GUI, and string handling capabilities. Additionally, readers are treated to an excellent review of Python's object-oriented, functional, and exception-handling capabilities. All chapters are peppered with references to useful functions from Python's standard library. Hetland devotes the second half of the book to project development with a series of ten increasingly complex applications. Project focus includes automated document conversion, newsgroup administration, graphical and PDF document generation, remote document maintenance, the creation and implementation of an XML RPC server, database integration, and Graphical User Interface (GUI) and game development.

Pelvic Health & Childbirth

Pelvic Health & Childbirth

Magnus Murphy; Wasson Carol L.

Prometheus Books
2003
pokkari
Almost every woman who has experienced vaginal childbirth has sustained some damage to her 'pelvic floor'. This little-known term describes the network of muscles, fascia, and nerves at the base of the pelvis that provides support for the pelvic and intra-abdominal organs (vagina, uterus, urinary bladder, rectum, etc.). This book - the first of its kind - is designed to help both women who already suffer from this 'silent epidemic' and women who wish to assess the risks of vaginal delivery. Dr Magnus Murphy, an obstetrician and gynaecologist who specialises in pelvic floor disorder, and co-author Carol L Wasson give women the vital information they need to understand symptoms, find treatment, and weigh their childbirth options. Complete with glossary, numerous illustrations, and references for further information, this highly useful handbook makes an important contribution to women's health and draws attention to a serious though often neglected problem.

Transvestites

Transvestites

Magnus Hirschfeld

Prometheus Books
2003
nidottu
Transvestites are women and men who feel reluctant and even refuse to dress in the clothing of their own sex. For them, the inherent drive to cross-dress is often more powerful than sexual drive itself. This phenomenon has often been confronted with both ignorance and prejudice. Transvestites have been subjected not only to discrimination but also to criminal prosecution for following what, for them, was an inborn inclination. Dr. Hirschfeld created this book to establish a body of knowledge about an often misunderstood topic and to strip away long held prejudices. This classic gender study, first published in Germany in 1910 and newly translated, explores all aspects of transvestism: social, physical and emotional. Transvestism is a firmly rooted psychological phenomenon and cultural tradition, in spite of religious, legal and social sanctions. Written 80 years ago, this book was and still is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject of transvestism, illustrating that while styles have changed, the enthusiasm of devotees has not. Part I introduces transvestites with sympathetic, often amusing case histories, defines symptoms, and explains their basic, erotic character. Part II explores the forceful drive to cross-dress and examines clothing as a form of expression of personality. Part III addresses the historical, legal, anthropological, and social aspects of transvestism, and includes fascinating chapters on transvestism as it relates to the Bible, law and criminality, and women in the military. This book conclusively demonstrates that transvestism is a natural extension of the infinite variations of human personality.

Competencies and Institutions Fostering High-growth Firms

Competencies and Institutions Fostering High-growth Firms

Magnus Henrekson; Dan Johansson

now publishers Inc
2008
nidottu
Competencies and Institutions Fostering High-Growth Firms examines high-growth firms, also known as ""Gazelles"", which have become critical to net job creation and economic growth. It analyzes how the institutional framework - the ""rules of the game"" - affects such firms, taking the theory of competence blocs as a point of departure.The three institutional categories that are key areas for the promotion of high growth firms include the tax system, the organization oflabour markets and product market regulations. The authors characterize institutions as either fostering dynamic capitalism, by providing a favourable environment for the emergence of competence blocs and the generation of high growth firms or leading to ""sclerotic capitalism"" by failing to produce such an environment.By analyzing high growth firms through the lens of the theory of competence blocs, Competencies and Institutions Fostering High-Growth Firms offers a more holistic view of economic growth. Rapid firm growth is a complex process requiring a number of complementary competencies. This analysis suggests that the commercialization of innovations and generation of high growth firms would be greatly facilitated if more product markets are contestable and tax structures andlabour market institutions are adjusted to stimulate the emergence of more effective competence blocs.

Poetry and Psychiatry

Poetry and Psychiatry

Magnus Ljunggren

Academic Studies Press
2014
sidottu
A century ago the Symbolists in Moscow and St. Petersburg dreamed of a fundamental transformation of life in Russia. From their reading of signs in the heavens, these poets, philosophers, and mystics sensed that tsardom was on the threshold of an apocalyptic upheaval. They were influenced by Vladimir Solovyov and Friedrich Nietzsche, but under the impact of the 1905 Revolution they later also subscribed to current radical political ideas. The eventual collision between these dreams and tsarist reality generated enormous intellectual turbulence and the need for substitutes. Not least psychoanalysis came to the rescue of these stranded dreamers. The present collection of essays is intended for readers interested in Russian literature or the early history of Eastern European offshoots of psychoanalysis.
