Ultrasound Mid-Air Haptics for Touchless Interfaces by Orestis Georgiou, William Frier, Euan Freeman, Claudio Pacchierotti, Takayuki Hoshi English | EPUB(True) | 2022 | 411 Pages | ISBN : 3031040422 | 100.8 MB Over the last decade, ultrasound mid-air haptic technology has emerged and rapidly advanced to engage multidisciplinary scientific communities within and adjacent to the haptics and HCI fields. Additionally, this haptic technology has been adopted by a number of industry sectors (e.g., automotive, virtual reality, digital signage, neuroscience research) who appear keen to exploit its unique value proposition: the ability to deliver rich haptic sensations from a distance, without the need to touch, wear or hold anything in order to enhance touchless interfaces, novel applications, and experiences. This book is the first, and currently the only one, that provides a comprehensive description of the technology, encapsulating almost all aspects relating to electronic prototyping, acoustics, haptics, psychology and perception, user experience and end-user HCI applications. Through its 18 chapters written by 30 expert co-authors, this book is therefore an excellent introduction to the technology for anyone coming from any of those fields. Specifically, the reader will benefit by getting a unique and multi-dimensional perspective on the state-of-the-art of this enabling haptic technology while also understanding its history, relevant best research practices, and an overview of the various open challenges and opportunities.

Two World Wars and Hitler: Who Was Responsible? by Jim Macgregor;John O'Dowd; English | 2025 | ISBN: 1634245032 | 720 pages | True EPUB | 13.68 MB A radical re-interpretation of events between 1914 and 1945, this book is a scholarly revision of the history of Nazi Germany that is sure to open the eyes of many thus far reluctant to face the truth. Deeply researched, well-sourced, evidence relates the true origins of the world wars, Corporal Hitler's meteoric rise to supreme power thanks to Britain and the United States of America, and how in 1939 the world was once again and very deliberately taken into the abyss. The book does not, like so many histories about Hitler and the world wars, tinker around the edges of modern history. It is a unique re-writing of the history at a level that is clearly understandable not merely to the academic with a wide level of expertise, but to ordinary readers with no more than a general interest in the subject matter. Told here for the first time, the astonishing truth about British and American secret agents encouraging, facilitating and funding Hitler's rise to power is sure to attract a substantial readership. === Two World Wars and Hitler: Who Was Responsible? by Jim Macgregor and John O'Dowd takes readers on a deep dive into the murky waters of global politics, exposing the intricate web of money, foreign agents, and geopolitical schemes that shaped the events of the 20th century. This book challenges the accepted narratives surrounding the causes of the two world wars and Adolf Hitler's rise to power, peeling back layers of propaganda to uncover hidden truths. The authors bring their medical and academic backgrounds to bear on a meticulously researched investigation, connecting dots that span continents and decades. From the clandestine dealings of financial elites to the machinations of intelligence operatives, the authors argue that the outcomes of these conflicts were anything but inevitable. They propose that powerful individuals and institutions actively manipulated the course of history, prioritizing profit and dominance over the welfare of nations and huma [b]Uploady[/b] https://uploady.io/mrii8l812xk6/hp20l.7z RapidGator https://rg.to/file/8f5c116307d5e28a67d31eddd8c6ab26/hp20l.7z.html [b]UploadCloud[/b] https://www.uploadcloud.pro/rze24b1jnbgp/hp20l.7z.html Fikper https://fikper.com/0P9xem552C/hp20l.7z.html FreeDL https://frdl.io/u674l5o9livi/hp20l.7z.html

Trügerischer Glanz: Der Wiener Kongress: Eine andere Geschichte Deutsch | 2015 | ISBN: 3709970644 | 225 Pages | EPUB | 1 MB Der Wiener Kongress war ein einziges rauschendes Fest. So sahen es zumindest viele Zeitzeugen, die über das Großereignis zur Jahreswende 1814/15 Aufzeichnungen hinterlassen haben. Bälle, Paraden und viele andere Lustbarkeiten sollten Sieges- und Friedensstimmung verbreiten. Aber die Herrscher Europas kamen nicht nur zum Tanzen in die k.k. Residenzstadt: Vielmehr sollte Europa nach der Niederlage Napoleons neu geordnet werden. Im engsten Kreis der Entscheidungsträger herrschte allerdings Uneinigkeit. Bis der ganze Kontinent erneut von Napoleon bedroht wurde. Mit seiner Niederlage konnten die Beschlüsse des Wiener Kongresses umgesetzt werden. Aber wie lange blieb die neue Ordnung aufrecht? Und welchen Stellenwert nimmt der Wiener Kongress in unterschiedlichen Erinnerungskulturen ein? Umfassend beleuchtet Hannes Leidinger den Wiener Kongress aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln und erklärt die Hintergründe, die Entwicklung und die Folgen des Großereignisses für Österreich und ganz Europa.

Trooping the Colour by Ben Skipper; English | 2025 | ISBN: 1399069446 | 322 pages | True PDF EPUB | 47.25 MB Explores the history, traditions, and key personalities behind London's ceremonial regiments, both on parade and at war. Today Trooping the Colour gathers crowds of tourists; along with the pomp and ceremony it is an event filled with tradition that spans many hundreds of years. In that history lies duty, a call to arms, and a rallying in battle. The regimental colours were presented to the soldiers daily so that they would recognize it in the melee of battle and rally toward it. In 1748 the Grenadier Guards began this tradition, also called the Kings Birthday Parade, which is now held annually at Horse Guards Parade in London. Boots, buckles and busbies gleaming, formations perfect and eyes right, Trooping the Colour is the culmination of months of hard work by the staff of the London District and the Royal Household, without whom state ceremonial and public duties would not exist. From regimental bands and gun salutes to Lord Lieutenants and Yeoman, it is the personalities and traditions that make the history of ceremonial duties so colourful. Trooping the Colour describes the histories of the key personalities and units of the London District, the Royal Household. Their histories are intertwined in one of the most complex narratives of the modern age. It describes the numerous moments, stories and traditions behind the many appointments that produce some of the most awe-inspiring displays now taken for granted. The book examines those defining moments in contemporary British history when planning and experience have delivered breathtaking spectacles of grandeur enjoyed by billions of people around the globe. Though it's not all parades and pomp though, these fine regiments have served with distinction in battles across the world and through time. This book explores London's Ceremonial Regiments at war and on parade.

Transcendentalism and the Cultivation of the Soul by Barry M. Andrews English | November 15, 2017 | ISBN: 1625342926, 1625342934 | True PDF | 188 pages | 5.7 MB A study of the spiritual practices developed by the nineteenth-century American Transcendentalist movement and a case for their necessity today. "The stern old faiths have all pulverized," Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote in 1860. "'Tis a whole population of gentlemen and ladies out in search of religions." Often seen as a mainspring of the nineteenth-century literary tradition and the preserve of New England intellectuals in retreat from society, American Transcendentalism is more accurately described as a religious movement. In Transcendentalism and the Cultivation of the Soul, Barry M. Andrews shows how Transcendentalists developed rich spiritual practices, nurtured their souls, and discovered the divine. The practices they adopted are common and simple-among them, keeping journals, contemplation, walking, reading, simple living, and conversation. As Emerson, Thoreau, Fuller, and others pursued meaningful and rewarding spiritual lives, they were inspired to fight for abolition, women's rights, and education reform. In approachable and accessible prose, Andrews uncovers a wealth of spiritual practices that are of particular value for today's spiritual seekers and religious liberals.

Too Little, Too Late: The Campaign in West and South Germany, June-July 1866 by Michael Embree English | November 20, 2015 | ISBN: 190938450X | 280 pages | MOBI | 23 Mb In the spring of 1866, the so-called German Confederation, then a loose organization of autonomous states, was thrown into crisis by a rift between the two largest members, the Austrian Empire, and The Kingdom of Prussia. Since the founding of the Confederation, in 1815, it had been tacitly accepted that Austria was the overseeing authority. Now, however, a more belligerent Prussia sought a leading role. Under a new and ambitious Chancellor, the ruthless Prince Otto von Bismarck, Prussia would no longer accept a secondary role. This vital question of leadership naturally affected all member states, and none could ignore it. Matters, however, had moved beyond discussion, and, in June, hostilities began, with the Prussian invasion of the Kingdom of Hanover, and the Electorate of Hesse-Cassel. This volume chronicles the conflict over the unification of Germany, which actually occurred on German soil. The campaign in southern and western Germany ensured that political control of German affairs would be firmly in Prussian hands, controlled by Bismarck, in much the same way that the great battles between Prussia and Austria in the east would exclude Austria from German affairs altogether. The detailed story of this, the war of unification within Germany itself, is narrated here, compiled from numerous published and unpublished sources, including many contemporary and first-hand accounts, as well as official reports. The importance of the campaign, far too often ignored, is told here. This is an invaluable resource for any student of European military history of the mid-19th Century. Key topics include the historical background to the conflict, the political crisis of 1866 in the "German Parliament" and the build-up to war, full descriptions of all military forces involved, the various phases of the campaign. The book includes comprehensive orders of battle, informative maps, numerous illustrations (some in color) and photographs, many informative charts and diagrams. The author also presents a detailed analysis of contemporary and later sources. This is the latest title in Helion's ground-breaking series of 19th Century studies, and will appear in hardback as a strictly limited edition printing of 750 copies, each individually numbered and signed by the author on a decorative title page.

Time and Narrative in Intelligence Analysis (Studies in Intelligence) by Joshua Yaphe English | July 11, 2025 | ISBN: 1041032951 | 254 pages | PDF | 2.52 Mb This book offers a new framework and set of standards for intelligence analysis, drawing from a variety of academic disciplines, such as philosophy, historiography, literary theory and semiotics. The US Intelligence Community is guided by a conviction that its practitioners are engaged in the scientific pursuit of fact-based evidence and its institutions uphold a set of tradecraft skills based on objectivity, timeliness and non-politicization that serve to define professionalism. That approach is counterintuitive to the way analysts actually seek to use language and rhetoric to convince and persuade readers, and counterproductive to the future recruitment and retention of subject matter experts. This book re-examines the assumptions and biases that underlie the intelligence profession in America and its increasing turn toward Artificial Intelligence, with case studies of declassified analytical products on Argentina, China, Iraq, Italy and South Africa. This book will be of much interest to students of intelligence, national security, philosophy, US politics and foreign policy.

This Is Body Grief: Making Peace with the Loss that Comes with Living in a Body by Jayne Mattingly English | March 20, 2025 | ISBN: 1035074168 | 256 pages | PDF | 1.81 Mb A guide to living and making peace with your ever-changing body. Have you ever felt like your body has failed you? Maybe you're not as quick or as strong as you used to be, or an illness has wrecked your sense of self, or no matter what diet you follow, you still feel uncomfortable in your own skin. So you go to war with your body for what it can no longer do - when the truth is, our bodies are always on our side. In This Is Body Grief, disability advocate and recovery expert Jane Mattingly lays out a groundbreaking approach to mourning and accepting one's ever-changing body. Like all grief, she says, Body Grief cannot be overcome but felt in all its complexity. Dismantling the narrative that your body is ''against you,'' she presents new ways to cope with your body''s fluctuating abilities with self-compassion and grace. Along the way, she walks you through the seven stages of Body Grief - from dismissal, shock, and self-blame to hopelessness and hope, and eventual body trust - offering wisdom for how to make space for each difficult emotion as it arises. Sharing stories from everyday people in the throes of Body Grief as well as her own journey as a newly-disabled woman - from the first of many harrowing hospital visits that resulted in her own life-altering diagnosis, to having to use a rollator on her wedding day because she could no longer walk safely on her own, to accepting the need for a hysterectomy in her early 30s - Mattingly shows that although healing isn't a linear journey, it begins when we trust and work in tandem with our bodies.

For the first time, the full-and wild-story is told, including how CIA agents secretly funded karate movies and how The New York Timesfabricated a fear campaign about Black "karate gangs," as well as the history of Black martial arts in America and the onslaught of Bruce Lee imitators after his death. With a foreword by RZA of the Wu Tang Clan and brand new material on superstars like Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh, and Donnie Yen, plus spotlights on unsung performers, film poster artists, and money-laundering film distributors, this revised and expanded edition is a master class in kung fu cinema history.

Stefan Grundmann, "Theories of Choice: The Social Science and the Law of Decision Making" English | ISBN: 0198863179 | 2021 | 352 pages | PDF | 12 MB Choice is a key concept of our time. It is a foundational mechanism for every legal order in societies that are, politically, constituted as democracies and, economically, built on the market mechanism. Thus, choice can be understood as an atomic structure that grounds core societal processes. In recent years, however, the debate over the right way to theorize choice - for example, as a rational or a behavioral type of decision making - has intensified. This collection provides an in-depth discussion of the promises and perils of specific types of theories of choice. It shows how the selection of a specific theory of choice can make a difference for concrete legal questions, in particular in the regulation of the digital economy or in choosing between market, firm, or network. In its first part, the volume provides an accessible overview of the current debates about rational versus behavioral approaches to theories of choice. The remainder of the book structures the vast landscape of theories of choice along with three main types: individual, collective, and organizational decision making. As theories of choice proliferate and become ever more sophisticated, however, the process of choosing an adequate theory of choice becomes increasingly intricate. This volume addresses this selection problem for the various legal arenas in which individual, organizational, and collective decisions matter. By drawing on economic, technological, political, and legal points of view, the volume shows which theories of choice are at the disposal of the legally relevant decision-maker, and how they can be operationalized for the solution of concrete legal problems. The editors acknowledge the kind support of the Fritz Thyssen Foundation for an exploratory conference on the subject of the book.

Alyssa Ney, "The World in the Wave Function: A Metaphysics for Quantum Physics" English | ISBN: 019009771X | 2021 | 288 pages | MOBI | 3 MB If quantum theories of the world are true-and empirical evidence suggests they are-what do they tell us about us, and the world? How should quantum theories make us reevaluate our classical conceptions of material objects? Nearly a century after the development of quantum theories, a consensus has yet to emerge. Many still wonder about what these theories may be telling us about ourselves and our place in the universe. Alyssa Ney here defends and develops a particular framework for understanding the world as it is described by quantum theories. This framework was initially suggested by Schrödinger in the 1920's and was further defended as an account of reality by two philosophers of physics in the 1990's who described it as a necessary point of view for those who argue that quantum theories are correct representations of our world. This framework is called wave function realism, which interprets quantum theories such that its central object is the quantum wave function, interpreted as a field on an extremely high-dimension space. This theory views us, and all objects, as ultimately constituted out of the wave function, and though we seem to occupy three dimensions, the fundamental spatial framework of quantum worlds consists of many more dimensions. Alyssa Ney argues for and advances this view, with the goal of making a case for how this theory how it might be applied to more other relativistic quantum theories, including quantum field theories. Her conclusion develops an account of how we as human beings might ultimately see ourselves and the objects around us as constituted out of the wave function.

The World in a Skillet: A Food Lover's Tour of the New American South by Angela Knipple, Paul Knipple English | March 1, 2012 | ISBN: 080783517X, 1469622238 | True EPUB | 296 pages | 4.6 MB Paul and Angela Knipple's culinary tour of the contemporary American South celebrates the flourishing of global food traditions "down home." Drawing on the authors' firsthand interviews and reportage from Richmond to Mobile and enriched by a cornucopia of photographs and original recipes, the book presents engaging, poignant profiles of a host of first-generation immigrants from all over the world who are cooking their way through life as professional chefs, food entrepreneurs and restaurateurs, and home cooks. Beginning the tour with an appreciation of the South's foundational food traditions - including Native American, Creole, African American, and Cajun - the Knipples tell the fascinating stories of more than forty immigrants who now call the South home. Not only do their stories trace the continuing evolution of southern foodways, they also show how food is central to the immigrant experience. For these skillful, hardworking immigrants, food provides the means for both connecting with the American dream and maintaining cherished ethnic traditions. Try Father Vien's Vietnamese-style pickled mustard greens, Don Felix's pork ribs, Elizabeth Kizito's Ugandan-style plantains in peanut sauce, or Uli Bennevitz's creamy beer soup and taste the world without stepping north of the Mason-Dixon line.

Mary Joan Winn Leith, "The Virgin Mary: A Very Short Introduction " English | ISBN: 0198794916 | 2022 | 208 pages | MOBI | 2 MB The Virgin Mary - a Jewish mother - is central to Christianity, a revered woman in Islam, and a person of persistent fascination for centuries. Marian worship and theology has inspired countless appearances in art, as well as religious philosophy and doctrine, while the concept of the Virgin herself has been involved in controversial discussions over the Virginal body, race, anti-Semitism, and globalism. This Very Short Introduction describes the evolution of Marian thought from early Christianity to the present day. Mary Joan Winn Leith focuses on the centuries between the rise of Christianity and the Counter-Reformation, the eras when most of the doctrinal issues, popular traditions, and associated conventions of Marian iconography developed, and covers Catholic, Orthodox, and other Christian denominations, as well as the Islamic Mary. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that includes art history, archaeology, and gender studies as well as doctrinal history, she considers some of the misunderstandings and unquestioned assumptions about the Virgin Mary that pervade past and present Christian consciousness and today's secular world. Leith also discusses apparitions of Mary and representations of Mary in contemporary popular culture. b Read more [b]Uploady[/b] https://uploady.io/on9a865i53zu/hrh5q.7z RapidGator https://rg.to/file/dcb91a67183f8cfc48c0bf961550a45e/hrh5q.7z.html [b]UploadCloud[/b] https://www.uploadcloud.pro/qsinlfsq20k5/hrh5q.7z.html Fikper https://fikper.com/lvXSCdL2Lw/hrh5q.7z.html FreeDL https://frdl.io/8am973p3dz8x/hrh5q.7z.html
