Most dance production books are written from the perspective of a production manager or designer, focusing on the technical aspects of a traditional dance production.Producing Dance takes a unique path-one that includes the voice of the choreographer and dancer in the journey to performance.In doing so, the authors support the process of the entire creative team and cover all aspects of a production. They put those aspects in the context of real-world application, in sequence with other components, creating a toolbox for success for all involved. By the end of the book, readers will have discovered the many options available to them in the production setting and be able to choose the tool most needed at the time.Critical Guidance That Sets This Book ApartThrough its collaborative approach, Producing Dance goes beyond the performance, covering evaluation, reflection, and opportunities for growth. And it offers guidance in two critical areas that are not addressed in other dance production books: Creating dance performances in nontraditional spaces such as site-specific venues, dance and culture festivals, and audience-immersive experiencesSupporting the development of an artistic career through acquiring business skills such as fundraising, grant writing, and performing business analysesAncillariesProducing Dance comes with an instructor guide, a test bank, a PowerPoint presentation package, and HKPropel Access. Through HKPropel, students will find supplemental content and study aids: Application activities for each chapter, allowing students to practice the concepts discussed in the chapterReal-world examples with explanationsLinks to websites that further illustrate conceptsVirtual flash cards to help students study and retain key termsParts of the BookThe text is presented in four parts. Part I guides readers in balancing and integrating artistic ideas with logistical considerations to create a clear and unified vision. Part II explores the process of realizing that vision through a collaborative and creative process. In part III, the knowledge gained in the first two parts is put into action as performance takes center stage. In part IV, readers learn how to continue to grow beyond the performance through a variety of pathways that deepen understanding and open up future opportunities.Realizing VisionThe journey from an idea to a fully produced vision can be daunting. Producing Dance makes that journey not only doable but also enjoyable. It provides readers the understanding and tools they need to realize their vision, explore and develop their voice, and further their growth and career development.Note: A code for accessing HKPropel is included with this ebook.
Analytic Combinatorics in Several Variables

Analytic Combinatorics in Several Variables

Cambridge University Press
2013

This book is the first to treat the analytic aspects of combinatorial enumeration from a multivariate perspective. Analytic combinatorics is a branch of enumeration that uses analytic techniques to estimate combinatorial quantities: generating functions are defined and their coefficients are then estimated via complex contour integrals. The multivariate case involves techniques well known in other areas of mathematics but not in combinatorics. Aimed at graduate students and researchers in enumerative combinatorics, the book contains all the necessary background, including a review of the uses of generating functions in combinatorial enumeration as well as chapters devoted to saddle point analysis, Groebner bases, Laurent series and amoebas, and a smattering of differential and algebraic topology. All software along with other ancillary material can be located via the book's website, http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~mcw/Research/mvGF/asymultseq/ACSVbook/.

Discrete structures model a vast array of objects ranging from DNA sequences to internet networks. The theory of generating functions provides an algebraic framework for discrete structures to be enumerated using mathematical tools. This book is the result of 25 years of work developing analytic machinery to recover asymptotics of multivariate sequences from their generating functions, using multivariate methods that rely on a combination of analytic, algebraic, and topological tools. The resulting theory of analytic combinatorics in several variables is put to use in diverse applications from mathematics, combinatorics, computer science, and the natural sciences. This new edition is even more accessible to graduate students, with many more exercises, computational examples with Sage worksheets to illustrate the main results, updated background material, additional illustrations, and a new chapter providing a conceptual overview.

Famine. Death. War. Pestilence. These are the harbingers of the biblical apocalypse, of the End of the World. In science fiction, the end is triggered by less figurative means: nuclear holocaust, biological warfare/pandemic, ecological disaster, or cosmological cataclysm. But before any catastrophe, there are people who see it coming. During, there are heroes who fight against it. And after, there are the survivors who persevere and try to rebuild. THE APOCALYPSE TRIPTYCH will tell their stories. Edited by acclaimed anthologist John Joseph Adams and bestselling author Hugh Howey, The Apocalypse Triptych is a series of three anthologies of apocalyptic fiction. THE END IS NIGH focuses on life before the apocalypse. THE END IS NOW turns its attention to life during the apocalypse. And THE END HAS COME explores life after the apocalypse. THE END IS NIGH is about the match. THE END HAS COME is about what will rise from the ashes. THE END IS NOW is about the conflagration. - - - - THE END IS NOW table of contents: INTRODUCTION by John Joseph Adams HERD IMMUNITY by Tananarive Due THE SIXTH DAY OF DEER CAMP by Scott Sigler GOODNIGHT STARS by Annie Bellet ROCK MANNING CAN'T HEAR YOU by Charlie Jane Anders FRUITING BODIES by Seanan McGuire BLACK MONDAY by Sarah Langan ANGELS OF THE APOCALYPSE by Nancy Kress AGENT ISOLATED by David Wellington THE GODS WILL NOT BE SLAIN by Ken Liu YOU'VE NEVER SEEN EVERYTHING by Elizabeth Bear BRING THEM DOWN by Ben H.

First published in 1976, this book has been widely acclaimed both for its significant contribution to the history of mathematics and for the way that it brings the subject alive. Building on a set of original writings from some of the founders of graph theory, the book traces the historical development of the subject through a linking commentary. The relevant underlying mathematics is also explained, providing an original introduction to the subject for students. From reviews: 'The book...serves as an excellent examplein fact, as a modelof a new approach to one aspect of mathematics, when mathematics is considered as a living, vital and developing tradition.' (Edward A. Maziark in Isis) 'Biggs, Lloyd and Wilson's unusual and remarkable book traces the evolution and development of graph theory...Conceived in a very original manner and obviously written with devotion and a very great amount of painstaking historical research, it contains an exceptionally fine collection of source material, and to a graph theorist it is a treasure chest of fascinating historical information and curiosities with rich food for thought.' (Gabriel Dirac in Centaurus) 'The lucidity, grace and wit of the writing makes this book a pleasure to read and re-read.' (S. H. Hollingdale in Bulletin of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications)

This book gives an engaging overview of the advances in graph theory during the 20th century. The authors, all subject experts, considered hundreds of original papers, picking out key developments and some of the notable milestones in the subject. This carefully researched volume leads the reader from the struggles of the early pioneers, through the rapid expansion of the subject in the 1960s and 1970s, up to the present day, with graph theory now a part of mainstream mathematics. After an opening chapter giving an overview of graph theory and its legacy from the 18th and 19th centuries, the book is organized thematically into seven chapters, each covering the developments made in a specified area. Topics covered in these chapters include map colorings, planarity, Hamiltonian graphs, matchings, extremal graph theory, and complexity. Each chapter is supplemented with copious endnotes, providing additional comments, bibliographic details, and further context. Written as an accessible account of the history of the subject, this book is suitable not only for graph theorists, but also for anyone interested in learning about the history of this fascinating subject. Some basic knowledge of linear algebra and group theory would be helpful, but is certainly not essential.

This book describes the multi-axis substructure testing (MAST) system, a simulator developed at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia, which provides state-of-the-art technology for large-scale hybrid testing of structures under realistic scenarios depicting extreme events. The book also demonstrates the responses of physical specimens while they serve as part of the virtual computer model of the full structure subjected to extreme dynamic forces. Experimental studies using the MAST system are expected to enhance design and construction methods and significantly improve the repair and retrofitting of structures endangered by natural disasters and man-made hazards, providing a direct benefit to society by improving public safety and the resilience of the built environment. An additional benefit is increased sustainability in the form of reduced direct and indirect economic losses and social and environmental impacts in the face of extreme events. This book will beof interest to researchers and advanced practitioners in the fields of structural earthquake engineering, geotechnical earthquake engineering, engineering seismology, and experimental dynamics, including seismic qualification.

Love can be many things – all-consuming, fleeting, vengeful, selfless, toxic, uplifting, and always, a core part of the teen experience that leaves an indelible mark. This enchanting, genre-crossing anthology delivers something for every reader with unique characters, global settings, and a dazzling mixture of myth, historical, speculative, and contemporary fiction. With the turn of a page, get swept away by unexpected love blooming between two princes from enemy Mesoamerican nations in the 15th century, who'd rather make music rather than war; cheer for a timid bearded lady who was shunned by her family and runs away to find belonging and safety at the circus during the 1800s experience the heartbreak of saying goodbye to a beloved pet; breathlessly watch a myth unfold as a siren bound to the water falls in love with a winged forest spirit, their love seemingly impossible from the start. Root for a girl who emerges from grief and battles with chronic pain to discover how to love herself and life again. Love is complicated, and this anthology embraces the messiness and the joy of all kinds of love.

Tron på en styrande, övergripande, himmelsk princip har följt människan genom historien. Mer än 80 procent av världens befolkning har idag en religiös tillhörighet och även i sekulära stater fortsätter religionen att spela en viktig roll. Det går inte att förstå politik och internationella relationer idag utan att inkludera religionen som en aspekt av det kulturella sammanhanget. Essäerna i denna antologi, som härrör från Engelsbergsseminariet 2014, spänner över en mångfald ämnen i dagens såväl som gårdagens samhällen. De utforskar religionen i relation till människans villkor och skildrar hur den manifesterar sig i individens egna upplevelser. För att förstå oss själva behöver vi också förstå religionen.

Med det kalla krigets slut och globaliseringens segertåg trodde många att nationalism hörde till historien. Men det visade sig vara tvärtom. Idag ser vi hur nationalismen sprids över hela världen. Samtidigt växer sig populistiska och anti-demokratiska rörelser starka. Att höra hemma någonstans tycks bli allt viktigare i en tid av ekonomisk och social osäkerhet. I en globaliserad värld förknippas därför identitet, medborgarskap och tillhörighet med födelseort och en fast plats att bo på. Essäerna i denna antologi är baserade på Engelsbergsseminariet 2017 där olika former av identitet knutna till olika samhällsbildningar granskades. Hur uppstår en nation? Hur skapas enighet i ett imperium med en mångfald av folk?Huvudredaktör för denna illustrerade antologi är Kurt Almqvist.
