A Space Syntax Analysis of Arroyo Hondo Pueblo, New Mexico
Jason S. Shapiro
School of American Research Press,U.S.
2005
nidottu
Until recently, archaeologists have rarely studied prehistoric architecture as if it were an artifact comparable to pottery or stone tools. Following the premise that built space embodies social organization, Jason Shapiro takes a fresh look at architectural data from Arroyo Hondo Pueblo, a fourteenth-century site in the northern Rio Grande Valley of presentday New Mexico. Using the theoretical assumptions and mathematical techniques of space syntax analysis, he explores what changes in architecture reveal about people's social lives. A significant shift toward greater residential "privacy" during the later period occurred in Arroyo Hondo as well as the contemporaneous pueblos of Tijeras and Puye and twentieth-century Acoma Pueblo. This analysis demonstrates that transformations in the arrangement of space can illuminate social change even when they are not accompanied by changes in other kinds of artifacts or technologies.

This book provides an introduction to quantitative marketing with Python. The book presents a hands-on approach to using Python for real marketing questions, organized by key topic areas. Following the Python scientific computing movement toward reproducible research, the book presents all analyses in Colab notebooks, which integrate code, figures, tables, and annotation in a single file. The code notebooks for each chapter may be copied, adapted, and reused in one's own analyses. The book also introduces the usage of machine learning predictive models using the Python sklearn package in the context of marketing research. This book is designed for three groups of readers: experienced marketing researchers who wish to learn to program in Python, coming from tools and languages such as R, SAS, or SPSS; analysts or students who already program in Python and wish to learn about marketing applications; and undergraduate or graduate marketing students with little or no programming background. It presumes only an introductory level of familiarity with formal statistics and contains a minimum of mathematics.

The settings of the stories in The Snow Bridge and Other Stories are drawn from a life spent in many countries. Several focus intently on a particular relationship: that between a husband and wife, mother and daughter, brothers, friends, partners, climbing-buddies, employer and employee; the relationship with an inner self; putative relationships that never quite begin, and relationships with a location, or the inhabitants of a small town. Other stories explore the long-term expatriate's dilemma of engaging with a place not his or her own at the price of diminishing intimacy with the country of his or her birth.Described in Philip Chatting's, 'Author's Introduction', as, "entertainment", the impact of the collection may prompt readers to reflect on the nature of their own relationships and the place we each occupy in our own worlds."Philip Chatting is a master stylist.... He invests himself in the traumatic conflict, character identification, and ethical complication that sit at the heart of the heart of necessary and affecting social fiction."--Jason S Polley (from his 'Advance Response' to 'The Snow Bridge and Other Stories')"The range of locations and...variety of characters...rarely come together in a single volume.... A unique collection reflecting the author's varied history and his interests in the countries and cultures of the people among whom he has lived and travelled. It will appeal to those who share or would like to share similar experiences, as well as those who are curious to know about them."--Mike Rowse (from his 'Preface' to 'The Snow Bridge and Other Stories')
CEMETERY MISS YOU, in the form of transcripts from audio recordings (similar to Samuel Beckett's "Krapp's Last Tape") recounts the first year or so of a Pakistani illegal's experiences in Hong Kong. The work begins by detailing the boy-man's middle-class experiences in Pakistan, before he's all but forced to flee his home after shooting a man in the name of family honour. His life in Hong Kong begins as a life of poverty, living on the streets. Less than a year later he's buying rounds of drinks on The Peak, driving around in private cars, spending thousands of dollars on footwear, and making regular short trips to mainland China.----The author writes: "Saa Ji-a name adopted by a host of Indian Subcontinent illegals and refugees in Hong Kong-tells not only his own story, but also the untold story of so many peripheral figures in Hong Kong, figures compelled into unimaginably intricate underworld networks-and not because of ethical unsoundness or suspectness. Instead, these perpetually marginalized and institutionally desperate figures have no other options. Saa Ji speaks of alterity in Hong Kong, of the otherness we all ignore."In her Preface to cemetery miss you, Ina Grigorova writes from New York: "The story of this man made me realize with chilled bones that there are places on earth where the known laws of social physics simply fall apart. ... The people and events in the story are grainy, pixelated, blinking on and off; reality has been exposed at the Planck scale where any apparent continuity breaks down. // Hong Kong is a good substrate for Sci-Fi constructs, not just because Hong Kong is so insanely futuristic, a spread-out tower of Babel, and not just because if you squint you can picture cemetery's characters crossing states more exotic than national boundaries (while borrowing each other's passports and pasts), but also because the book's very surface approaches quantum foam: objects of characterization blinking on and off, end-positioned subjects slipping away into the next sentence predicate; cause and effect inverting, like the thought-wave must flow in Saa Ji's native-tongue state... A text with the wheels of its own cognitive process both at work and exposed."
