"What does Judaism have to say about humanity's most pressing crisis? Rabbi Shelly Lewis has written an engaging, scholarly, and inspiring book about how Jewish tradition should inform our personal response to climate change: required reading for anyone who cares about the future of Creation."(Prof. Alon Tal, former chair of Knesset subcommittee on the Environment & Climate)"Our planet is on life support. These are grave times. Yet I can still find solace in this newest book by Rabbi Sheldon Lewis. With a clear moral vision, Lewis conveys the many ways in which the Hebrew Bible celebrates the natural world as a sacred creation that we must cherish and work to preserve. His words are glorious, his vision illuminating. Reading his book fills me with joy."(Dr. Adriane Leveen, Bible Scholar and Climate Activist)

This anthology is the first book-length study of China's environmental condition and ecosystem through the lens of cinema from a non-anthropocentric point of view. By proposing "ecocinema" as a new critical framework, the volume breaks new ground in Chinese and global film studies.

New Physics In B Decays

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has withstood thus far every attempt by experimentalists to show that it does not describe data. We discuss the SM in some detail, focusing on the mechanism of fermion mixing, which represents one of its most intriguing aspects. We discuss how this mechanism can be tested in b-quark decays, and how b decays can be used to extract information on physics beyond the SM. We review experimental techniques in b physics, focusing on recent results and highlighting future prospects. Particular attention is devoted to recent results from b decays into a hadron, a lepton and an anti-lepton, that show discrepancies with the SM predictions — the so-called B-physics anomalies — whose statistical significance has been increasing steadily. We discuss these experiments in a detailed manner, and also provide theoretical interpretation of these results in terms of physics beyond the SM.

In Irish fiction, the most famous example of the embrace of damnation in order to gain freedom—politically, religiously, and creatively—is Joyce’s Stephen Dedalus. His “non serviam,” though, is not just the profound rebellion of one frustrated young man, but, as Brivic demonstrates in this sweeping account of twentieth-century Irish fiction, the emblematic and necessary standpoint for any artist wishing to envision something truly new. Because Irish culture was largely dictated by the Catholic Church and its conservatism, the most ambitious Irish writers, like Joyce, Beckett, and the ten others Brivic presents here, saw the privileges of damnation and seized them, rejecting powerful norms of church, state, and culture, as well as of literary form, voice, and character, to produce some of the most radical work of the twentieth century. Brivic links the work of writers such as Flann O’Brien, Patrick McCabe, and Anne Enright to the theories of Alain Badiou. His mathematical procedure for distinguishing what is truly innovative informs the progressive political and philosophical thrust that these writers at their best carry on from Joyceand Beckett to unfold a fierce tradition that extends into the twenty-first century.
Spectroscopy studies how electromagnetic radiation interacts with matter. It assesses the intensity of radiation in relation to its wavelength. Spectroscopy serves as a fundamental exploratory tool across multiple disciplines, including chemistry, physics and astronomy. It enables the analysis of matter's electronic structure, composition, and physical makeup at atomic, macro, and molecular levels. In this field, various measurement devices are utilized, such as spectrometers, spectral analyzers and spectrophotometers. Different types of spectroscopy are distinguished by the nature of interaction between the material and energy. Some of these types include emission spectroscopy, reflection spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy and impedance spectroscopy. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of spectroscopy which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make it an invaluable source of knowledge.
"The twists keep coming It's a page turner all the way through " -Corey Farrenkopf, author of Living in Cemeteries and Haunted Ecologies When Benjamin Cole's 83-yr-old father commits suicide, he's thrust into a dark family secret that had been hiding in plain sight. With the task of selling the old family farm, repressed memories and chilling discoveries force him to confront the horrors that lie inside it. But when his girlfriend's son is kidnapped, Benjamin must figure out what is reality and who is family. Because in order to save the child, Benjamin will have to learn the truth of his father-and who Benjamin himself is."Sheldon Higdon's Dark Roots is a deeply disturbing and brilliantly twisted read. Blending the haunting psychological depth of True Detective, the relentless tension of To Catch a Killer, and the eerie dread of The Black Phone, this story grips from the first page and never lets go. It's a nightmarish descent into darkness that will make every parent's skin crawl and stomach turn. A solid 5 Shovels read " -Thom Erb, author of Snow Black, The Last in Line, and Heaven, Hell, or Houston
This is the first book-length analysis of the influence of Henri Bergson’s philosophy in Mexican literature and film. Following the publication of Matter and Memory (1896) and Creative Evolution (1907), Bergson’s philosophy swept the world in the early twentieth century and was a touchstone for the voices of change during the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920). Bergson’s writing on time, memory, consciousness and intuition found a receptive home with intellectuals confronting the ideology of positivism and the nation’s syncretic pasts and futures. Against the assumption that Bergson quickly fell from favour, Penn demonstrates their enduring presence in Mexican aesthetic production. Over four chapters of in-depth analyses covering novels, short fiction, memoirs, poetry, and cinema, Penn moves from the Revolutionary period intellectuals of Alfonso Reyes and José Vasconcelos, the 1930s of José Gorostiza and the Contemporáneos, to the Boom and post-Boom fiction of Carlos Fuentes, finishing with the contemporary films of Carlos Reygadas. Penn’s penetrating analyses of temporally ‘mobile’ images uncover a continuous, Bergsonian aesthetic unfolding questions of time, memory and identity in Mexico. The study extends our understanding of the place of Bergson in the international arts and the role played by his philosophy of pure duration in postcolonial and hybrid cultures.
