Prohibition's Greatest Myths The Distilled Truth about America's Anti-Alcohol Crusade
Michael Lewis, "Prohibition's Greatest Myths: The Distilled Truth about America's Anti-Alcohol Crusade"
English | ISBN: 0807170380 | 2020 | 192 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
The word "prohibition" tends to conjure up images of smoky basement speakeasies, dancing flappers, and hardened gangsters bootlegging whiskey. Such stereotypes, a prominent historian recently noted in the Washington Post, confirm that Americans' "common understanding of the prohibition era is based more on folklore than fact." Popular culture has given us a very strong, and very wrong, picture of what the period was like. Prohibition's Greatest Myths: The Distilled Truth about America's Anti-Alcohol Crusade

Predictive Learning Control for Unknown Nonaffine Nonlinear Systems
Predictive Learning Control for Unknown Nonaffine Nonlinear Systems: Theory and Applications
English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811988560 | 361 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 40 MB
This book investigates both theory and various applications of predictive learning control (PLC) which is an advanced technology for complex nonlinear systems. To avoid the difficult modeling problem for complex nonlinear systems, this book begins with the design and theoretical analysis of PLC method without using mechanism model information of the system, and then a series of PLC methods is designed that can cope with system constraints, varying trial lengths, unknown time delay, and available and unavailable system states sequentially. Applications of the PLC on both railway and urban road transportation systems are also studied. The book is intended for researchers, engineers, and graduate students who are interested in predictive control, learning control, intelligent transportation systems and related fields.

Porphyry, On Principles and Matter A Syriac Version of a Lost Greek Text with an English Translation, Introduction, and Glos
Porphyry, "On Principles and Matter": A Syriac Version of a Lost Greek Text with an English Translation, Introduction, and Glossaries By Yury Arzhanov
2021 | 194 Pages | ISBN: 3110745771 | PDF | 1 MB
The Syriac treatise published in the present volume is in many respects a unique text. Though it has been preserved anonymously, there remains little doubt that it belongs to Porphyry of Tyre. Accordingly, it enlarges our knowledge of the views of the most famous disciple of Descriptioninus. The text is an important witness to Platonist discussions on First Principles and on Plato's concept of Prime Matter in the Timaeus. It contains extensive quotations from Atticus, Severus, and Boethus. This text thus provides us with new textual witnesses to these philosophers, whose legacy remains very poorly attested and little known. Additionally, the treatise is a rare example of a Platonist work preserved in the Syriac language. The Syriac reception of Plato and Platonic teachings has left rather sparse textual traces, and the question of what precisely Syriac Christians knew about Plato and his philosophy remains a debated issue. The treatise provides evidence for the close acquaintance of Syriac scholars with Platonic cosmology and with philosophical commentaries on Plato's Timaeus.

Poetics of the Earth Natural History and Human History
Poetics of the Earth: Natural History and Human History By Augustin Berque
2019 | 214 Pages | ISBN: 0367200538 | PDF | 10 MB
Poetics of the Earth is a work of environmental philosophy, based on a synthesis of eastern and western thought on natural and human history. It draws on recent biological research to show how the processes of evolution and history both function according to the same principles.Augustin Berque rejects the separation of nature and culture which he believes lies at the root of the environmental crisis. This book proposes a three stage process of re-worlding (moving away from the individualized self to become a part of the common world), re-concretizing (understanding the meaning and historical development of words and things) and re-engaging (reconsidering the relationship between history and subjectivity at every level of being) in order to bring western thought on nature and culture into sustainable harmony and alignment.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental studies, environmental philosophy, Asian studies and the natural sciences.

Pits and Boots Excavation of Medieval and Post-Medieval Backlands Under the Bon Accord Centre, Aberdeen
Michael Roy, "Pits and Boots: Excavation of Medieval and Post-Medieval Backlands Under the Bon Accord Centre, Aberdeen"
English | ISBN: 1789694876 | 2021 | 352 pages | PDF | 48 MB
Pits and Boots derives from excavations carried out in 2007-8, in advance of an extension to the Bon Accord Centre in Aberdeen, that uncovered the backlands of an area that would have formed part of the industrial quarter of the medieval town. The site is well-dated by dendrochronology, augmented by artefactual evidence, and indicates activity from the late 12th century AD into the early modern period, with a particularly intensive period in the 13th century. Structural evidence consists primarily of the backland boundaries, hearth/ovens, several wood-lined wells and many large pits. It is the contents of these pits and wells which forms the core of this monograph. The waterlogged conditions within the pits and wells has meant that a remarkable assemblage of organic remains including leather, wooden artefacts, textiles, animal pelts, fibres, and cordage has survived. The leather assemblage is the largest ever to be found in Scotland and has revealed a range of activities associated with the use of animal hides, from hide processing to tanning and shoemaking. The wood assemblage is also extensive and includes bowls, platters, coopered vessels and tools. Metalwork, crucibles, clay mould fragments and ceramics all testify to the industrial nature of the area, while the large quantities of animal and fishbone demonstrate that butchery on an industrial scale took place in the area. The excavation charts the changing nature of this once-peripheral area of Aberdeen, from an industrial zone in the medieval period, to horticultural and domestic spaces in post-medieval times, and has thus greatly enhanced our knowledge of Scottish urban development.
