The Discovery of the South Shetland Islands / The Voyage of the Brig Williams, 1819-1820 and The Journal of Midshipman C.W. Poynter
In 1819, William Smith, with a general cargo from Montevideo to Valparaiso, sailed further south round Cape Horn than his predecessors, in the hope of finding favourable winds. He sighted land in 62S. His report to the Senior Naval Officer in Valparaiso was ridiculed, but on a subsequent voyage he confirmed his discovery, taking surroundings and sailing along the coast. As a result Captain Shirreff, the Senior Naval Officer, chartered his vessel, the brig Williams, and having put Edward Bransfield, the master of his ship, HMS Andromache, in charge, sent her to survey the new discovery. Charles Poynter was one of the midshipmen who sailed with Bransfield. His account of this expedition, which forms the principal part of this volume, recently came to light in New Zealand, and is the only first-hand account of the voyage, during which the Antarctic mainland was sighted for the first time, that appears to have survived. The introduction contains some remarks on the South Shetland Islands, followed by chapters giving a brief look at the history of the Spanish in South America and the British presence in the area, together with the speculation leading to the search for Antarctica and chapters on early nineteenth-century navigation and hydrographic surveying. There were a number of second-hand accounts of William Smith’s earlier voyages, and Bransfield’s expedition which appeared in reports, journals and books at the time. These are included with brief accounts of other voyages to the South Shetland Islands which took place while Bransfield was in the area, to complete the picture. Poynter’s journal explains the reasons behind most of the names given to land features, some of which were not included in the published accounts at the time. There are also three charts and a number of views which are reproduced together with modern photographs of the area. It also contains a large number of geographical positions which enable a track chart of the voyage to be produced

Zbyt duże, by upaśc w branży ubezpieczeniowej
Celem niniejszej książki jest wyjaśnienie zagadnienia "zbyt duży, by upaśc" w branży ubezpieczeniowej. W tym celu przeanalizowano teoretycznie dwie firmy ubezpieczeniowe, kt re znalazly się w trudnej sytuacji, a wyniki podsumowano w studiach przypadk w. American International Group, Inc. (AIG), om wiona w pierwszej części książki, znalazla się w poważnych tarapatach finansowych po burzliwych wydarzeniach na amerykańskim rynku nieruchomości w 2008 roku. Wiele kontrakt w swapowych ryzyka kredytowego (CDS) podpisanych przez sp lki zależne opieralo się na niesplaconych kredytach hipotecznych typu subprime. Firma ubezpieczeniowa zostala uratowana przez rząd amerykański, ponieważ byla zbyt duża i zbyt powiązana, aby upaśc. Druga częśc książki przedstawia sytuację wok l Mannheimer Lebensversicherung AG. Portfel niemieckiej Mannheimer Lebensversicherung AG zostal natomiast przeniesiony do nowo utworzonej sp lki przejmującej Protektor Lebensversicherungs-AG, aby zachowac wizerunek niemieckiej branży ubezpieczeń na życie jako odpornej na kryzysy. Drugim zamiarem bylo ochrona ubezpieczających i ich roszczeń.

Jeśli chodzi o alfabetyzację, uwaga skupia się na dyskusjach dotyczących praktyk dydaktycznych, przeciwstawiających teorie strategiom metodologicznym. Są to dyskusje, kt re nie przyczyniają się do rozwoju nauczania. Procesy poznawcze i tw rcze uczni w przebiegają na marginesie spor w dotyczących preferencji, kt re mają miejsce między strategiami metodologicznymi. Jeśli chodzi o alfabetyzację, osoba ucząca się caly czas się uczy, aktywuje swoje procesy poznawcze, kt re są biologiczne i kulturowe, a jednocześnie pojawia się kreatywnośc. Kiedy uczeń postrzega siebie jako calośc - istotę biologiczną/logiczną - zwiększa się zasięg jego spojrzenia na otaczający go świat, co czyni go jeszcze bardziej ludzkim. Księżniczka, kt ra wszystko widziala to opowieśc z tradycji ustnej, wykorzystana w tej książce jako narzędzie do zrozumienia i wyjaśnienia aspekt w biokulturowych, kt re prowadzą do alfabetyzacji. Niech nauczyciel dostrzeże coś nowego, nowy spos b myślenia o podmiocie wiedzy, w celu zintegrowania, a nie niszczenia możliwości kreatywności w wiedzy, ani cudownej ludzkości, kt ra wylania się z każdego ucznia, kt ry opanowal umiejętnośc czytania i pisania
Wplyw dzialalności czlowieka na roślinnośc w parkach dworskich
Roślinnośc park w dworskich jest "odzwierciedleniem" wplyw w antropogenicznych i naturalnych. W ciągu ostatnich stuleci ksztaltowala ją dzialalnośc czlowieka i środowisko naturalne. Charakterystyczne dla park w dworskich są rodzime gatunki roślin. Stanowią one r wnież "symbol" naturalnego środowiska. W zakl conym krajobrazie parki krajobrazowe nazywane są reliktami przeszlości pod względem naturalnym (Rylke 1987) i często są ostatnimi miejscami występowania rzadkich gatunk w roślin (Sikorski i Wysocki 2003, Fabiańska 2004, Fornal-Pieniak i Wysocki 2006, 2007, 2009). Ponadto parki dworskie jako "zielone wyspy" (Fornal-Pieniak i Wysocki 2007) odgrywają gl wną rolę jako ważne elementy zielonych korytarzy w nie leśnym krajobrazie rolniczym.
P.R.C. Laws for China Traders and Investors
This book, first published in 1988, is a comprehensive reference of the laws and practice relating to trade between China and the rest of the world, at a time when the country had only recently opened its markets to foreigners. It shows how China wished to develop foreign trade, the methods it used to do this, and the means by which it attempted to control foreign access at the same time as moving to an increasing openness.

The business of journalism has an extensive, storied, and often romanticized history. Newspaper reporting has long shaped the way that we see the world, played key roles in exposing scandals, and has even been alleged to influence international policy. The past several years have seen the newspaper industry in a state of crisis, with Twitter and Facebook ushering in the rise of citizen journalism and a deprofessionalization of the industry, plummeting readership and revenue, and municipal and regional papers shuttering or being absorbed into corporate behemoths. Now billionaires, most with no journalism experience but lots of power and strong views, are stepping in to purchase newspapers, both large and small. This addition to the What Everyone Needs to Know® series looks at the past, present and future of journalism, considering how the development of the industry has shaped the present and how we can expect the future to roll out. It addresses a wide range of questions, from whether objectivity was only a conceit of late twentieth century reporting, largely behind us now; how digital technology has disrupted journalism; whether newspapers are already dead to the role of non-profit journalism; the meaning of "transparency" in reporting; the way that private interests and governments have created their own advocacy journalism; whether social media is changing journalism; the new social rules of old media outlets; how franchised media is addressing the problem of disappearing local papers; and the rise of citizen journalism and hacker journalism. It will even look at the ways in which new technologies potentially threaten to replace journalists.

From data-rich infographics to 140 character tweets and activist cell phone photos taken at political protests, 21st century journalism is awash in new ways to report, display, and distribute the news. Computational journalism, in particular, has been the object of recent scholarly and industry attention as large datasets, powerful algorithms, and growing technological capacity at news organizations seemingly empower journalists and editors to report the news in creative ways. Can journalists use data--along with other forms of quantified information such as paper documents of figures, data visualizations, and charts and graphs--in order to produce better journalism? In this book, C.W. Anderson traces the genealogy of data journalism and its material and technological underpinnings, arguing that the use of data in news reporting is inevitably intertwined with national politics, the evolution of computable databases, and the history of professional scientific fields. It is impossible to understand journalistic uses of data, Anderson argues, without understanding the oft-contentious relationship between social science and journalism. It is also impossible to disentangle empirical forms of public truth telling without first understanding the remarkably persistent Progressive belief that the publication of empirically verifiable information will lead to a more just and prosperous world. Anderson considers various types of evidence (documents, interviews, informational graphics, surveys, databases, variables, and algorithms) and the ways these objects have been used through four different eras in American journalism (the Progressive Era, the interpretive journalism movement of the 1930s, the invention of so-called "precision journalism," and today's computational journalistic moment) to pinpoint what counts as empirical knowledge in news reporting. Ultimately the book shows how the changes in these specifically journalistic understandings of evidence can help us think through the current "digital data moment" in ways that go beyond simply journalism.
