Jewish Contribution to Civilization The Littman Library of Jewish Civilization

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The biblical idea of a distinct 'Jewish contribution to civilization' continues to engage Jews and non-Jews alike. This book seeks neither to document nor to discredit the notion, but rather to investigate the idea itself as it has been understood from the seventeenth century to the present. It explores the role that the concept has played in Jewish self-definition, how it has influenced the political, social, and cultural history of the Jews and of others, and whether discussion of the notion still has relevance in the world today. The book offers a broad spectrum of academic opinion: from tempered advocacy to reasoned disavowal, with many variations on the theme in between. It attempts to illustrate the centrality of the question in modern Jewish culture in general, and its importance for modern Jewish studies in particular. Part I addresses the idea itself and considers its ramifications. Richard I. Cohen focuses on the nexus between notions of 'Jewish contribution' and those of 'Jewish superiority" David N.Myers shifts the focus from 'contribution' to 'civilization', arguing that the latter term often served the interests of Jewish intellectuals far better, and Moshe Rosman shows how the current emphasis on multiculturalism has given the idea of a 'Jewish contribution' new life. Part II turns to the relationship between Judaism and other monotheistic cultures. Elliott Horowitz's essay on the sabbath serves as an instructive test-case for the dynamic and complexity of the 'contribution' debate and a pointer to more general, theoretical issues. David Berger expands on these in his account of how discussion of Christianity's Jewish legacy developed in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and Susannah Heschel shows how the Jewish-Christian encounter has influenced the study of other non-Western 'others'. Daniel Schroeter raises revealing questions about the altogether Eurocentric character of the 'contribution' discourse, which also bore heavily on perceptions of Jews and Judaism in the world of Islam. Part III introduces us to various applications and consequences of the debate.Yaacov Shavit probes the delicate balance forged by nineteenth-century German Jewish intellectuals in defining their identity. Mark Gelber moves the focus to the present and considers the post-war renewal of German Jewish culture and the birth of German-Jewish studies in the context of the 'contribution' discourse. Bringing the volume to its conclusion, David Biale compares three overviews of Jewish culture and civilization published in America in the twentieth and twenty-first-centuries.

Vulnerability Springer, Berlin

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Drawing from a wide array of disciplinary perspectives and geographical contexts, this volume offers new insights for critically engaging with the problem of vulnerability. The essays here contained take the move from the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to explore the inherent vulnerability of individuals, but also of social, economic and political systems, and probe the descriptive and prescriptive import of the concept.Each chapter provides a self-contained perspective on vulnerability, as well as a specific methodological framework for questioning its meaning. Taken together, the chapters combine into a multi-disciplinary toolkit for approaching the various forms and structures of vulnerability, with a special attention to the intersectional factors shaping the individual experience of it: from gender to age, from disability to mental illness, from hospitalisation to incarceration. The book explores the theoretical richness and complexity of the concept and proposes new analytical approaches to it, before illustrating its multifariousness through empirically grounded case studies. The closing section engages with "the future of vulnerability", as a hermeneutic, epistemological, and critical-normative perspective to be deployed beyond the domain of global crises and emergencies.The volume is primarily intended as a reference for scholars in the human, social and health sciences. The accessible structure and plain language of the chapters make it also a valuable didactic resource for graduate courses in philosophy, the social sciences and public health.

Practical Embedded Security Newnes

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The great strides made over the past decade in the complexity and network functionality of embedded systems have significantly enhanced their attractiveness for use in critical applications such as medical devices and military communications. However, this expansion into critical areas has presented embedded engineers with a serious new problem: their designs are now being targeted by the same malicious attackers whose predations have plagued traditional systems for years. Rising concerns about data security in embedded devices are leading engineers to pay more attention to security assurance in their designs than ever before. This is particularly challenging due to embedded devices' inherent resource constraints such as limited power and memory. Therefore, traditional security solutions must be customized to fit their profile, and entirely new security concepts must be explored. However, there are few resources available to help engineers understand how to implement security measures within the unique embedded context. This new book from embedded security expert Timothy Stapko is the first to provide engineers with a comprehensive guide to this pivotal topic.From a brief review of basic security concepts, through clear explanations of complex issues such as choosing the best cryptographic algorithms for embedded utilization, the reader is provided with all the information needed to successfully produce safe, secure embedded devices. .The ONLY book dedicated to a comprehensive coverage of embedded security! .Covers both hardware- and software-based embedded security solutions for preventing and dealing with attacks. .Application case studies support practical explanations of all key topics, including network protocols, wireless and cellular communications, languages (Java and C/++), compilers, web-based interfaces, cryptography, and an entire section on SSL.

Lectures on Vibrations Akademia Marynarki Wojennej

MECHANIKA

Owing to their flexibility, the components of structures and machinery are capable of relative motion when subjected to internal or external forces. If such motion is oscillatory in nature, the motion is referred to as vibration. Although applications exist where vibration performs a useful function, vibration in ships is undesirable as it tends to accelerate the wearing of parts such as bearings and gears, create excessive noise and transmit significant forces and/or motion to accommodation, working and recreation spaces as well as to other equipment. Humans may be exposed to vibrations transmitted to the whole body or to particular parts of the body, such as the head or limbs. Designers should primarily be concerned with vibrations transmitted to the body through supporting surfaces such as the buttocks or feet. Research shows that mechanical vibration interferes with work quality and productivity, safety, health, comfort, and causes motion sickness. The literature also shows that vibration may modify crewmember perception (e.g., reading text and instruments, depth perception), influence task control movements (e.g., tactile sense, head/hand movements, manual tracking) and lead to impairment of speech. These factors may result in increased crewmember reaction/response times and possibility of human error. There are many different sources of vibration in ships, such as propeller and stern wake, main engine and other machinery, wave loads and environmental effects. Due to the complexity of these sources of excitation and of the structural configuration of ships, harmful vibration problems still occur even though vibration prediction techniques have developed rapidly and are well established through the use of Finite Element Method software. Continuing research activities have shown that carrying out vibration control is a tend as well as requirement for ships and offshore structures. Also in many other engineering branches it is well known that the proper vibration control in the design process is necessary a safe and satisfactory working and living environment as well as to avoid abnormal wear and tear on the machinery and structures. Since vibration and noise disturb the surrounding medium, their levels should be low also from reason, particularly in submarines. The appropriately reduced acoustic emission and electromagnetic signature of submarines decrease a vessel

Epicure in the Terrible Hippocampus Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

When An Epicure in the Terrible first appeared in 1991, commemorating the centennial of H. P. Lovecraft's birth, it was hailed as a significant contribution to Lovecraft studies. Its thirteen original essays, along with a lengthy biocritical introduction by S. T. Joshi, contained penetrating work by leading authorities in the field. Among them were Kenneth W. Faig, Jr.'s pioneering study of Lovecraft's parents; Jason C. Eckhardt's analysis of Lovecraft's heritage as a New England Yankee; and Donald R. Burleson's treatment of the key theme of "touching the glass," epitomized by "The Outsider."Other essays in the book deal with such topics as the theme of isolation in Lovecraft's fiction (Stefan Dziemianowicz); Lovecraft's cosmic imagery (Steven J. Mariconda); Lovecraft's progression from a macabre writer to a cosmic writer (David E. Schultz); and Lovecraft's "artificial mythology" and its development (Robert M. Price). Essays by Peter Cannon, Robert H. Waugh, R. Boerem, Norman R. Gayford, and Barton L. St. Armand round out the volume.This paperback edition presents these perspicacious essays to a new readership, and shows the richness and complexity of H. P. Lovecraft's writing-writing that is destined to endure for centuries. Citations to Lovecraft's work have been updated to reflect newer and more accurate editions that have appeared since 1991, and some of the essays have been slightly revised in other particulars.
