Opis - Pierwsze na świecie świadectwo ofiary zbrodni honorowej. Miała siedemnaście lat i zakochała się: zhańbiła rodzinę. Więc rodzina wydała na nią wyrok śmierci... Pokochała go pierwszą miłością. Myślała, że się z nią ożeni. Ale ukochany zniknął, a ona odkryła, że jest w ciąży. A w jej świecie to najcięższa zbrodnia... W zapomnianej przez Boga wiosce w Cisjordanii kobiety są warte mniej niż zwierzęta domowe. Tu mężczyzna jest panem życia i śmierci żony, córki, siostry. Brat może bezkarnie zabić siostrę, matka - córkę, kolejną bezużyteczną dziewczynkę, jaka się urodzi. Tu kobiecie odbiera się godność, a nawet życie zgodnie z odwiecznym obyczajem i uświęconą tradycją. A śmierć jest karą dla dziewczyny, która zhańbi rodzinę. Tak jak Souad. Wyrok wydaje jej ojciec. Szwagier dokonuje egzekucji. Oblewa Souad benzyną i podpala... SOUAD przeżyła - cudem, ale rodzina usiłowała zabić ją nawet w szpitalu. Na zawsze jednak pozostanie straszliwie okaleczona - na ciele i duszy. I wciąż musi się ukrywać; dopóki żyje, jej rodzinę okrywa hańba. Spalona żywcem, opublikowana pod pseudonimem szokująca opowieść o piekle, jakim było jej dzieciństwo i młodość, stała się międzynarodowym bestsellerem. Wydana w 37 w krajach książka przerywa tabu milczenia wobec istniejącej nadal w krajach muzułmańskich barbarzyńskiej tradycji. Nieludzkiego obyczaju, prawa mężczyzn, na mocy którego co najmniej pięć tysięcy kobiet pada co roku ofiarą zbrodni honorowej. Nazwa - Spalona Żywcem Wyd.

On Architecture Harvard University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Vitruvius (Marcus V. Pollio), Roman architect and engineer, studied Greek philosophy and science and gained experience in the course of professional work. He was one of those appointed to be overseers of imperial artillery or military engines, and was architect of at least one unit of buildings for Augustus in the reconstruction of Rome. Late in life and in ill health he completed, sometime before 27 BCE, "De Architectura" which, after its rediscovery in the fifteenth century, was influential enough to be studied by architects from the early Renaissance to recent times. In "On Architecture" Vitruvius adds to the tradition of Greek theory and practice the results of his own experience. The contents of this treatise in ten books are as follows. Book 1: Requirements for an architect; town planning; design, cities, aspects; temples. 2: Materials and their treatment. Greek systems. 3: Styles. Forms of Greek temples. Ionic. 4: Styles. Corinthian, Ionic, Doric; Tuscan; altars. 5: Other public buildings (fora, basilicae, theatres, colonnades, baths, harbours). 6: Sites and planning, especially of houses. 7: Construction of pavements, roads, mosaic floors, vaults. Decoration (stucco, wall painting, colours). 8: Hydraulic engineering; water supply; aqueducts. 9: Astronomy. Greek and Roman discoveries; signs of the zodiac, planets, moon phases, constellations, astrology, gnomon, sundials. 10: Machines for war and other purposes.

The finest collection of architectural books in the worldFor over 150 years the British Architectural Library has accumulated and preserved a collection of architectural works - currently the largest and most comprehensive resource in Britain for research and information on all aspects of architecture. Now, after twenty-five years and the efforts of several bibliographers, Early Printed Books 1478-1840 describes in detail the Early Imprints section of the Library.A collection of the important, the rare and the unusual This five volume set describes some 4,200 of the world's finest architectural works, many of which were donated or bequeathed by coll...ectors and architects who wished to share their magnificent acquisitions with others.A major reference work Each entry includes a detailed bibliographical description of the contents -- full title-page transcription, pagination statement, collation, detailed description of letterpress and graphic contents, references and notes. The notes compare the collection's copy with those in other libraries, explaining the different editions, the publishing history and importance of the text and illustrative material.Early Printed Books 1478-1840 is a prime source for information not only on architectural history but also on publishing history in the era of handpress printing.The most comprehensive guide to architectural books ever publishedEarly Printed Books 1478-1840 makes available a wealth of information on the architects, artists, printers and publishers associated with these books, throughout Europe and beyond, for nearly four centuries. Individual descriptive records will help librarians, booksellers and collectors to establish the status of copies in their own possession. Furthermore, historians of art and architecture will, often for the first time, be able to use these primary sources with a sound knowledge of their bibliographical contents. Through the written word and printed image, this collection has provided knowledge and inspiration for past and present architects. The collection accommodates almost all the major treatises from the period before 1841, including such rare and important works as: 54 editions and issues of Vitruvius' De architectura and 12 of Alberti's De re aedificatoria -- in-cluding the 15th century first editions of both,53 editions of Palladio's written works, substantial holdings of the treatisesof Serlio, Scamozzi and Vignola and a and a magnificent collection of Piranesi's etchings,John Shute's The first and chief grovndes of architecture -- the first architectural book in English.

'Only with the greatest of simplifications, for the sake of convenience, can we say Africa. In reality, except as a geographical term, Africa doesn't exist'. Ryszard Kapuscinski has been writing about the people of Africa throughout his career. In a study that avoids the official routes, palaces and big politics, he sets out to create an account of post-colonial Africa seen at once as a whole and as a location that wholly defies generalised explanations. It is both a sustained meditation on the mosaic of peoples and practises we call 'Africa', and an impassioned attempt to come to terms with humanity itself as it struggles to escape from foreign domination, from the intoxications of freedom, from war and from politics as theft. The Beginning: Collision, Ghana 1958 More than anything, one is struck by the light. Light everywhere. Brightness everywhere. Everywhere, the sun. Just yesterday, an autumnal London was drenched in rain. The airplane drenched in rain. A cold, wind, darkness. But here, from the morning

For many in the West, Chinese contemporary art is still synonymous with the political realist painters of the 1980s and 90s, who recycled the styles of communist social Realism with pop cynicism. In China itself, the speed of change in technology, architecture, industry and lifestyle has been matched by extraordinary developments in the arts. The embracing of modern technologies and a widespread openness to the history of Western art has combined with distinctly Chinese traditions and concerns to forge entirely new forms of expression in the new century. Placing this huge variety of work in the context of the art of previous decades, the author examine the different modes of production, artist groups, market systems and infrastructure that shape artistic production in China and maek it unique in the world today. With widespread and increasing fascination in the West for all things Chinese and with Chinese art now increasingly dominant in auction houses and exhibition spaces across the globe, this is a vital guide for all those interested in Chinese art today.

CAN and FPGA Communication Engineering Diplomica

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The Controller Area Network (CAN), invented by Bosch in 1983, is a serial field bus protocol which was originally used in road vehicles and now is widely applied in other industrial fields. Since its birth automotive electronic engineers have been use Microcontrollers (MCU) to control the CAN bus. Today, as the Field-programmable Gate Array (FPGA) has become very advance, this book introduces a new method which uses an FPGA and a MCU jointly instead of a single MCU is to design a CAN bus measurement system. Furthermore the designed system should be able to work at the fastest possible speed. §Chapter 1 of this book is the introduction which includes the background, objective and outline of this book. §Chapter 2 describes the CAN protocol development history and fundamentals such as application field, architecture layers, different frame structures, frame coding, error handling and fault confinement which are extracted from the CAN Specification 2.0 and ISO 11898. It helps reader to understand the CAN. §Chapter 3 studies the effective data transmission rate and ratio of the CAN bus and the MCU serial UART port. Then it compares their values and draws a conclusion. This chapter is the most important theory research of this book.§Chapter 4 describes the devices used in the experiments of the book. There are five major devices applied: an Altera FPGA, a 5-3.3 V level translator, an Atmel CAN MCU, a NI CAN USB and a PC with LabVIEW environment.§Chapter 5 demonstrates the software development procedure for the whole system including FPGA with Quartus II, MCU with Keil C51, and NI CAN BUS with LabVIEW.§Chapter 6 describes the testing experiments of the measurement system. It analyses a common error ignored during the MCU programming and shows how to solve it. After the reprogramming, three tests and their results are illustrated.§Chapter 7 presents the final conclusion of this book which is that the measurement system designed here maximally utilizes the CAN effective data transmission rate and ratio and could be applied in control systems of electric vehicles.
