In her most recent works Andrea Wilmsen (b. near Düsseldorf 1970; lives and works in Berlin) directs her photographic perspective to the exhibition spaces and parts of museums that are inaccessible to the public. The interplay between fragmentary views and elaborately composed close-up shots lets the photographer outline remarkable portraits of renowned museums all over the world. Alice in the Field--the title is a nod to Lewis Carroll's brilliant heroine, a key source of inspiration--gathers surrealistic impressions from behind the scenes at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. This multifaceted panorama of one of North America's leading research museums blends photographic documentation with creative narration. Wilmsen's photographs offer unusual insights into the collection of around forty million artifacts and specimens and introduces selected scholars. The portraits are complemented by archival images and photographs from the collection.
This is the only authoritative guide that offers a subject approach to the plentiful resources provided by international government organizations, national governments, and other foreign information sources. In addition to an overview section, 21 chapters cover rich resources of topical, statistical, and analytical information on agriculture and food; crime; health; human rights; laws and treaties; transportation; women and children; and more. Each chapter provides descriptions of Web sites, books, reports, and other important materials, and concludes with research strategies and tips on the most efficient ways to search for certain types of information. In addition to international and foreign government sources, this book covers resources from foreign organizations, foreign universities, and commercial publishers. Appendixes identify the acronyms and initialisms that are often used in place of international government organizations' full names; the organizations' Web site addresses are also listed. Students from high school to graduate level, researchers, and librarians will find this an important reference work.
In seinem Kopf stellte er die mathematische Welt auf den Kopf. Er berechnete Flüssigkeitsströmungen, das Trägheitsmoment, entwickelte die Variationsrechnung und die moderne Zahlentheorie. Als Wissenschaftler steht er auf einer Stufe mit Newton und Einstein. Konstrukteure in aller Welt arbeiten tagtäglich mit seinen Formeln – egal ob es um den Schiffsrumpf der "Alinghi" geht oder um die Schwingungen des "Viaduc de Millau", der Welt höchster Autobahnbrücke. Dabei war er ein Mensch, der bürgerliche Behaglichkeit und Ruhe liebte. Nicht ganz einfach zur Gründungszeit von St. Petersburg inmitten russischer Kaisermorde oder im Berlin zur Zeit der schlesischen Kriege. Und erst recht nicht inmitten einer grossen Kinderschar. Der Comic von Elena Pini (Graphik) und Alice und Andreas K. Heyne (Text) zeichnet das Leben des genialen Baslers nach, der vor 300 Jahren geboren wurde, mit zwanzig Jahren seine Heimatstadt verliess – und nie wieder zurückkehrte.
The book presents insights from over five years of research by the Real Estate Center at the Department of Architecture, Built environment and Construction engineering (ABC) of Politecnico di Milano, within the Italian PropTech Network initiative. It explores how digital technology is addressing key challenges in the built environment, such as climate change, urbanization, rising costs, and demographic shifts. Traditionally slow to adapt, the real estate sector must embrace innovation to meet urgent Sustainable Development Goals. Focusing on digitalization, the book analyzes tools and technologies that can transform property management, enhance market processes, and add value for stakeholders. It provides a broad literature review, defines PropTech, and examines its role in reshaping the construction and real estate industry. Case studies illustrate the sector’s ongoing transformation while critically evaluating different PropTech applications. The book contributes to academic debate and supports real estate professionals navigating digital transformation by systematizing current knowledge. It also highlights potential risks, emphasizing the need for further research to ensure sustainable and informed innovation.

The image of a tortured genius working in near isolation has long dominated our conceptions of the artist's studio. Examples are abound: think Jackson Pollock dripping resin on a cicada carcass in his shed in the Hamptons. But times have changed; ever since Andy Warhol declared his art space a 'factory', artists have begun to envision themselves as the leaders of production teams, and their sense of what it means to be in the studio has altered just as dramatically as their practices. "The Studio Reader" pulls back the curtain from the art world to reveal the real activities behind artistic production. What does it mean to be in the studio? What is the space of the studio in the artist's practice? How do studios help artists envision their agency and, beyond that, their own lives? This forward-thinking anthology features an all-star array of contributors, ranging from Svetlana Alpers, Bruce Nauman, and Robert Storr to Daniel Buren, Carolee Schneemann, and Buzz Spector, each of whom locates the studio both spatially and conceptually - at the center of an art world that careens across institutions, markets, and disciplines. A companion for anyone engaged with the spectacular sites of art at its making, "The Studio Reader" reconsiders this crucial space as an actual way of being that illuminates our understanding of both artists and the world they inhabit.

One half-century later, the catastrophic ramming of the MS Stockholm into the Italian luxury liner the SS Andrea Doria in 1956 is relived in this candid, heartrending account. Author Pierette Domenica Simpson, who, with her grandparents, survived the tragedy off the shoals of Nantucket, shares the human and technical aspects of what has become known as the greatest sea rescue in history. As only an eyewitness can do, the author presents survivors' recollections in dramatic vignettes that meticulously re-create a horrific event-one that could have been another Titanic. Both poor immigrants and wealthy travelers give their accounts of ultimate despair and infinite elation after staring at their own reflections in the black ocean that night and seeing death stare back. Equally dramatic are the revelations of new facts exposed by nautical experts from two continents facts that solve the ""mystery"" of who was to blame for this most improbable collision between two ships on the open seas.
