2013 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 125003082X | EPUB | 3 MB
The Stone Roses captures the magic-and chaos-behind the UK band's rise, fall, and recent resurrection. The iconicBrit popband The Stone Roses became an overnight sensation when their 1989 eponymous album went double platinum.It was a recording that is still often listed as one of the best albums ever made. Its chiming guitar riffs, anthemic melodies, and Smiths-like pop sensibilityelevatedThe Stone Roses to a cult-like status in the UK and put them on the map in the U.S. But theirsis astory of unfulfilled success:their star imploded as their sophomore effort took years to complete and the band broke up acrimoniously in 1996. Sixteen years later, they reunited and have been playing sold out gigs,thrilling fans around the globe, and working on new material. In 2013, they nabbed the coveted headline spot at theCoachella Festival. With one hundred interviews of key figures, forty rare photographs, and exclusive insider materialincluding how they created their music, The Stone Roses charts the band's rise from the backwaters of Manchester to becoming the stars of the "Madchester" sceneto their successful comeback years later. Going beyond the myths to depict a band thatdefined Brit pop, Simon Spenceillustrates their incandescent talent and jaw-dropping success while contextualizing them in the 90s music scene. This is the definitive story of The Stone Roses.

The Statistical Theory of Shape by Christopher G. Small
English | PDF | 1996 | 237 Pages | ISBN : 0387947299 | 24.6 MB
In general terms, the shape of an object, data set, or image can be de fined as the total of all information that is invariant under translations, rotations, and isotropic rescalings. Thus two objects can be said to have the same shape if they are similar in the sense of Euclidean geometry. For example, all equilateral triangles have the same shape, and so do all cubes. In applications, bodies rarely have exactly the same shape within measure ment error.

The Statistical Analysis of Spatial Pattern by M. S. Bartlett
English | PDF | 1975 | 98 Pages | ISBN : 9400957572 | 5.5 MB
In a contribution (Bartlett, 1971 a) to the Symposium on Statistical Ecology at Yale in 1969, I noted in my introductory remarks that that paper was not intended to be in any way a review of statistical techniques for analysing spatial patterns. My contribution to a conference at Sheffield in 1973 aimed, at least in part, to supply such a review and forms the basis of this monograph; but in these prefatory remarks I must still make clear what I decided to discuss, and what I have omitted. Broadly speaking, the coverage is that included in seminars and lectures I have given on this theme since 1969. We may divide problems of spatial pattern (in contrast with complete random chaos) into (i) detecting departures from randomness, Oi) analysing such departures when detected, for example, in relation to some stochastic model and (iii) special problems which require separate consideration; for example, sophisticated problems of pattern recognition in specific fields, such as the computer reading of handwriting or recognition of chromosomes.

The Spartans: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions) by Andrew J. Bayliss
English | May 12, 2022 | ISBN: 019878760X | True PDF | 176 pages | 1.2 MB
The myths surrounding Sparta are as old as the city itself. Even in antiquity, Sparta was a unique society, and considered an enigma. The Spartans who fought for freedom against the Persians called themselves 'equals' or peers, but their equality was reliant on the ruthless exploitation of the indigenous population known as helots. The Spartans' often bizarre rules and practices have the capacity to horrify as much they do to fascinate us today. Athenian writers were intrigued and appalled in equal measure by a society where weak or disabled babies were said to have been examined carefully by state officials before being dumped off the edge of a cliff. Even today their lurid stories have shaped our image of Sparta; a society in which cowards were forced to shave off half their beards, to dress differently from their peers, and who were ultimately shunned to the extent that suicide seemed preferable. The legend of Sparta was even perpetuated by later Spartans, who ran a thriving tourist industry that exaggerated the famed brutality of their ancestors.
