Step into the World of Mathematics

Step into the World of Mathematics

Samuli Siltanen

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2021
sidottu
Modern life is increasingly relying on digital technology, which in turn runs on mathematics. However, this underlying math is hidden from us. That is mostly a good thing since we do not want to be solving equations and calculating fractions just to get things done in our everyday business. But the mathematical details do matter for anyone who wants to understand how stuff works, or wishes to create something new in the jungle of apps and algorithms. This book takes a look at the mathematical models behind weather forecasting, climate change prediction, artificial intelligence, medical imaging and computer graphics. The reader is expected to have only a curious mind; technical math skills are not needed for enjoying this text.

Aki Samuli - Oman elämänsä kuningas

Aki Samuli - Oman elämänsä kuningas

Tomi Lindblom

Visual Media Productions
2022
sidottu
Oman elämänsä kuningas -nimisessä kirjassa Aki Samuli kertoo taipaleestaan täydestä tuntemattomuudesta tangokuninkaaksi sekä siitä, kuinka hän turhautui tanssilavakulttuurin muuttumattomuuteen. Kirjassa myös kerrotaan muun muassa, mikä sai Akin ostamaan kolme vuotta sitten maatilan ja kuinka hän ryhtyi hoitamaan sitä ja kymmeniä eläimiään Pukkilassa.- Kerron kirjassa tuntojani ja tunnelmiani elämäni varrelta. Samalla kirja on kertomus siitä, kuinka nastolalaisesta pojannaskalista kasvoi monien käänteiden kautta tanssiartisti ja levylaulaja ja kuinka nykyinen elämäni kuluu tilani eläinten parissa, Aki Samuli kertoo. - Ihmiset tuntevat minut laulajana, mutta minulla on paljon muutakin, kuten vuosien tausta vaativista tehtävistä ravintola-alalla. Lisäksi takanani on vaikeita hetkiä, jotka ovat muovanneet minut sellaiseksi kuin nyt olen ja antaneet minulle motivaatiota jaksaa eteenpäin tulipa vastaa mitä tahansa, Aki Samuli jatkaa.

Egypt in the Future Tense

Egypt in the Future Tense

Samuli Schielke

Indiana University Press
2015
sidottu
Against the backdrop of the revolutionary uprisings of 2011–2013, Samuli Schielke asks how ordinary Egyptians confront the great promises and grand schemes of religious commitment, middle class respectability, romantic love, and political ideologies in their daily lives, and how they make sense of the existential anxieties and stalled expectations that inevitably accompany such hopes. Drawing on many years of study in Egypt and the life stories of rural, lower-middle-class men before and after the revolution, Schielke views recent events in ways that are both historically deep and personal. Schielke challenges prevailing views of Muslim piety, showing that religious lives are part of a much more complex lived experience.

Pompeian Peristyle Gardens

Pompeian Peristyle Gardens

Samuli Simelius

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2022
sidottu
This book examines how Pompeian peristyle gardens were utilized to represent the socioeconomic status of Roman homeowners, introducing fresh perspectives on how these spaces were designed, used, and perceived.Pompeian Peristyle Gardens provides a novel understanding of how the domus was planned, utilized, and experienced through a critical examination of all Pompeian peristyles – not just by selecting a few well-known examples. This study critiques common scholarly assumptions of ancient domestic space, such as the top-down movement of ideas and the relationship between wealth and socio-political power, though these possibilities are not excluded. In addition, this book provides a welcome contribution to exploring the largely unexamined middle class, an integral part of ancient Roman society.Pompeian Peristyle Gardens is of interest to students and scholars in art history, classics, archaeology, social history, and other related fields.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

Cyber Attacks and International Law on the Use of Force

Cyber Attacks and International Law on the Use of Force

Samuli Haataja

Routledge
2020
nidottu
Examining the thematic intersection of law, technology and violence, this book explores cyber attacks against states and current international law on the use of force. The theory of information ethics is used to critique the law’s conception of violence and to develop an informational approach as an alternative way to think about cyber attacks.Cyber attacks against states constitute a new form of violence in the information age, and international law on the use of force is limited in its capacity to regulate them. This book draws on Luciano Floridi’s theory of information ethics to critique the narrow conception of violence embodied in the law and to develop an alternative way to think about cyber attacks, violence, and the state. The author uses three case studies – the 2007 cyber attacks against Estonia, the Stuxnet incident involving Iran that was discovered in 2010, and the cyber attacks used as part of the Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election – to demonstrate that an informational approach offers a means to reimagine the state as an entity and cyber attacks as a form of violence against it.This interdisciplinary approach will appeal to an international audience of scholars in international law, international relations, security studies, cyber security, and anyone interested in the issues surrounding emerging technologies.

Criminal Law and Policy in the European Union

Criminal Law and Policy in the European Union

Samuli Miettinen

Routledge
2012
sidottu
This book takes stock of the development of EU criminal law from the establishment of the ECSC to the first European Union criminal law directives passed after the Lisbon Treaty. The work considers criminal offences established at EU level, the effects of EU law on national criminalization, the emerging body of EU criminal procedural law, and the increasing recognition of defense rights as EU rights. Limits to the legal effects of EU-level rules require them to be examined in the light of Member State practice. Implementing measures are not always appropriate, and may balance interests under national law, the rights of criminal defendants, and the need for EU-wide approximation. The proliferation of EU criminal law has led to an explicit, albeit underdeveloped, EU criminal policyThis book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of EU Law and Criminal Law.

Birth of the European Individual

Birth of the European Individual

Samuli Hurri

Routledge
2014
sidottu
This book examines the birth of the European individual as a juridical problem, focusing on legal case dossiers from the European Court of Justice as an electrifying laboratory for the study of law and society. Foucault’s story of the modern subject constitutes the book’s main theoretical inspiration, as it considers the encounter between legal and other practices within a more general field of juridical power: a network of active relations, between different social spheres.Through the analysis of delinquent individuals – each expelled from one of the Member States – the raw material for constructing the idea of the European individual is uncovered. The European individual, it is argued, emerged out of the intersection of regimes of law, security and economy, and its practices of knowledge-power.Birth of the European Individual: Law, Security, Economy will be of interest to those studying the individual in law, as well as anyone considering the relationships between power and the individual.

The Perils of Joy

The Perils of Joy

Samuli Schielke

Syracuse University Press
2012
sidottu
Mulids, festivals in honor of Muslim ""friends of God,"" have been part of Muslim religious and cultural life for close to a thousand years. While many Egyptians see mulids as an expression of joy and love for the Prophet Muhammad and his family, many others see them as opposed to Islam, a sign of a backward mentality, a piece of folklore at best. What is it about a mulid that makes it a threat to Islam and modernity in the eyes of some, and an indication of pious devotion in the eyes of others? What makes the celebration of a saint’s festival appear in such dramatically different contours? The Perils of Joy offers a rich investigation, both historical and ethnographic, of conflicting and transforming attitudes toward festivals in contemporary Egypt. Schielke argues that mulids are characterized by a utopian momentum of the extraordinary that troubles the grand schemes of order and perfection that have become hegemonic in Egypt since the twentieth century. Not an opposition between state and civil society, nor a division between Islamists and secularists, but rather the competition between different perceptions of what makes up a complete life forms the central line of conflict in the contestation of festive culture.

Ideological Conflict and the Rule of Law in Contemporary China

Ideological Conflict and the Rule of Law in Contemporary China

Samuli Seppänen

Cambridge University Press
2016
sidottu
This book studies ideological divisions within Chinese legal academia and their relationship to arguments about the rule of law. The book describes argumentative strategies used by Chinese legal scholars to legitimize and subvert China's state-sanctioned ideology. It also examines Chinese efforts to invent new, alternative rule of law conceptions. In addition to this descriptive project, the book advances a more general argument about the rule of law phenomenon, insisting that many arguments about the rule of law are better understood in terms of their intended and actual effects rather than as analytic propositions or descriptive statements. To illustrate this argument, the book demonstrates that various paradoxical, contradictory and otherwise implausible arguments about the rule of law play an important role in Chinese debates about the rule of law. Paradoxical statements about the rule of law, in particular, can be useful for an ideological project.

The Political Constitution of EU Criminal Law

The Political Constitution of EU Criminal Law

Samuli Miettinen

Hart Publishing
2023
sidottu
How is EU criminal legislative competence regulated after the Lisbon Treaty? Is it based on a legal constitution, reviewed by judges, or should the system be described as a political constitution, largely in the hands of the legislature? This study asks what powers have been conferred on the Union in the field of substantive criminal law and how the exercise of its powers may be reviewed after the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty. The questions raise a wide range of issues relevant to EU criminal law, but also to EU constitutional, administrative and institutional law. Through the book’s exploration of them, the author brings fresh perspectives and insights that will be welcomed by EU scholars.
