CRC Press

Cable and Wireless Networks: Theory and Practice presents a comprehensive approach to networking, cable and wireless communications, and networking security. It describes the most important state-of-the-art fundamentals and system details in the field, as well as many key aspects concerning the development and understanding of current and emergent services.In this book, the author gathers in a single volume current and emergent cable and wireless network services and technologies. Unlike other books, which cover each one of these topics independently without establishing their natural relationships, this book allows students to quickly learn and improve their mastering of the covered topics with a deeper understanding of their interconnection. It also collects in a single source the latest developments in the area, typically only within reach of an active researcher.Each chapter illustrates the theory of cable and wireless communications with relevant examples, hands-on exercises, and review questions suitable for readers with a BSc degree or an MSc degree in computer science or electrical engineering. This approach makes the book well suited for higher education students in courses such as networking, telecommunications, mobile communications, and network security. This is an excellent reference book for academic, institutional, and industrial professionals with technical responsibilities in planning, design and development of networks, telecommunications and security systems, and mobile communications, as well as for Cisco CCNA and CCNP exam preparation.

Bushwick's Bohemia

Bushwick's Bohemia

Mario Hernandez

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
nidottu
Viewed as a symbol of urban blight and decline in the late 1970s and 1980s, Bushwick today is bustling and bursting with color, creativity, and commerce. Cozy and cool cafes, small boutiques, trendy restaurants, vibrant street murals, and art galleries now adorn the neighborhood in the northern part of Brooklyn, stoking its growing reputation as one of the more desirable places to live, work in, and visit.In this book, Mario Hernandez paints a precise picture that portrays the redevelopment, evolution, and ensuing gentrification of the Brooklyn neighborhood over recent decades. Drawing on interviews, developer reports, and historical and civic records, the author focuses closely on the artists and creative industries that moved to Bushwick and, over time, shaped the Bohemian art scene in the neighborhood and contributed to the growth of its vibrant urban economy. The book connects the emergence and ongoing development of the neighborhood’s art scene to neoliberal policies and city planning efforts that have also facilitated and led to the increasing displacement of long-time Black and Latinx residents. It also documents community efforts to counteract forces of displacement and development, revealing the complex, competing, and collective efforts to shape Bushwick and its future.Culture and capital collide, converge, and contribute to rapid and radical change in Bushwick’s bohemia, making this an important read for those interested in urban life, gentrification, and social issues.

EU Socio-Economic Governance in Central and Eastern Europe

EU Socio-Economic Governance in Central and Eastern Europe

Mario Munta

Routledge
2021
sidottu
This book investigates to what extent and how the European Semester impacts on national employment policy in four EU member states of the Central and Eastern European (CEE) region. Using an original theoretical and methodological framework, and based on empirical evidence from extensive interviews with experts in the field, this book examines the relation between EU preferences, exemplified by the yearly list of country-specific recommendations, and national policy responses to EU suggestions, tracing the extent to which policy change can be attributed to the influence of the European Semester. It extracts three potential mechanisms of European Semester influence on policy change: External pressure, mutual learning and creative appropriation and identifies key contributing and inhibiting factors. The book provides several policy recommendations regarding the organisation and workings of the European Semester process. This text will be of key interest to students, academics and practitioners in European and EU politics, EU socio-economic governance, EU social policy, European integration, soft Europeanization and the Europeanization of Central and Eastern Europe.

Conversation at Princeton

Conversation at Princeton

Mario Vargas Llosa; Rubén Gallo

Farrar, Straus and Giroux
2023
sidottu
A series of conversations held at Princeton University between the Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa and Rub n Gallo. Princeton University, 2015. For one semester, Mario Vargas Llosa taught a course on literature and politics with Rub n Gallo. Over several classes, the two writers spoke to students about the theory of the novel and the relationship between journalism, politics, and literature through five beloved books by the Nobel laureate: Conversation in The Cathedral, The Real Life of Alejandro Mayta, Who Killed Palomino Molero?, A Fish in the Water, and The Feast of the Goat. Conversation at Princeton records these exhilarating discussions and captures the three complementary perspectives that converged in the classroom: that of Vargas Llosa, who reveals the creative process behind his novels; that of Rub n Gallo, who analyzes the different meanings the works took on after their publication; and that of the students, whose reflections and questions give voice to the responses of millions of Vargas Llosa's readers. During these talks, Vargas Llosa not only speaks with intelligence and lucidity about the craft of writing, but also offers an absorbing, inquisitive analysis of today's political and cultural landscape. Conversation at Princeton is a singular opportunity to attend a unique master class on literature and society taught by one of our greatest writers and thinkers.

Three Plays: The Young Lady from Tacna, Kathie and the Hippopotamus, La Chunga

Mario Vargas Llosa

Hill Wang
1990
nidottu
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATUREMario Vargas Llosa, the internationally acclaimed novelist and a cultural and political figure in Peru, explores the complexities of Peruvian society and the writer's imagination in three dramas. In The Young Lady from Tacina, history and fiction collide in a 100-year-old woman known as Mamae, as her grand nephew attempts to turn the rich but contradictory stories of her life into a single narrative. In Kathie and the Hippopotamus, a banker's wife recounts her travel adventures to a writer, but as he embellishes the tales with his own style and tastes, they transform into something altogether new and unexpected. Finally, in La Chunga, the regulars in a small-town bar trade speculations about what happened between the bar's female owner, a local pimp, and their shared object of desire, who has disappeared. Vargas Llorca introduces each play with a foreword that helps to place the action in context.
