Black Dogs: The Possibly True Story of Classic Rock’s Greatest Robbery $0.33 In July 1973, Led Zeppelin played three sold-out shows at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Before the final performance, $203,000 of the band’s money went missing from a safe deposit box at the Drake Hotel in what was called the single highest deposit box theft in the city’s history. The money was never recovered. Black Dogs might be the story behind the greatest rock ’n’ roll heist of all time. the last thing nineteen-year-old Patrick Sullivan needed was a new scam. Just months earlier, he had left a trail of broken friendships and new enemies in Baltimore for a fresh start in New York City after a botched robbery attempt landed one of his best friends in jail. But when he spies a briefcase full of cash backstage at a Led Zeppelin concert, Patrick makes plans for one last crazy mission–one that he hopes will redeem him in the eyes of everyone he left behind. To pull it off, Patrick will have to return to his hometown to round up his crew: Alex, the one who did time for Patrick’s last crime; Frenchy, the neurotic musician who still lives with Mom; and dim-witted but endearing Keith, the greasy-haired loner who excels at installing car stereos and then uninstalling them, all in the same day.When the unlikely team’s plan goes horribly wrong, the boys find themselves mixed up with Backwoods Billy, the psychotic leader of the Holy Ghosts Christian motorcycle gang. They need some help, and they find it in some unlikely places: by crossing paths and making deals with a pill-popping DA, a safe-cracking funk band called the New York Giants, and the Maryland chapter of the Misty Mountain Hoppers Led Zeppelin Fan Club. Sporting a rare 1958 Les Paul guitar and a complicated plan that could either go wonderfully right or horribly wrong, the guys, fueled by beer and egos, make a desperate attempt at robbing the world’s coolest rock band–to hilarious result.Black Dogs brings to life |

Ciao, America!: An Italian Discovers the U.S. $9.99 In the wry but affectionate tradition of Bill Bryson, Ciao, America! is a delightful look at America through the eyes of a fiercely funny guest — one of Italy’s favorite authors who spent a year in Washington, D.C.When Beppe Severgnini and his wife rented a creaky house in Georgetown they were determined to see if they could adapt to a full four seasons in a country obsessed with ice cubes, air-conditioning, recliner chairs, and, of all things, after-dinner cappuccinos. From their first encounters with cryptic rental listings to their back-to-Europe yard sale twelve months later, Beppe explores this foreign land with the self-described patience of a mildly inappropriate beachcomber, holding up a mirror to America’s signature manners and mores. Succumbing to his surroundings day by day, he and his wife find themselves developing a taste for Klondike bars and Samuel Adams beer, and even that most peculiar of American institutions — the pancake house.The realtor who waves a perfect bye-bye, the overzealous mattress salesman who bounces from bed to bed, and the plumber named Marx who deals in illegally powerful showerheads are just a few of the better-than-fiction characters the Severgninis encounter while foraging for clues to the real America. A trip to the computer store proves just as revealing as D.C.’s Fourth of July celebration, as do boisterous waiters angling for tips and no-parking signs crammed with a dozen lines of fine print. By the end of his visit, Severgnini has come to grips with life in these United States — and written a charming, laugh-out-loud tribute. |

Convexity and Well-Posed Problems $5.8 This book deals with the study of convex functions and of their behavior from the point of view of stability with respect to perturbations. Convex functions are considered from the modern point of view that underlines the geometrical aspect: thus a function is defined as convex whenever its graph is a convex set.A primary goal of this book is to study the problems of stability and well-posedness, in the convex case. Stability means that the basic parameters of a minimum problem do not vary much if we slightly change the initial data. On the other hand, well-posedness means that points with values close to the value of the problem must be close to actual solutions. In studying this, one is naturally led to consider perturbations of functions and of sets. This approach fits perfectly with the idea of regarding functions as sets. Thus the second part of the book starts with a short, yet rather complete, overview of the so-called hypertopologies, i.e. topologies in the closed subsets of a metric space.While there exist numerous classic texts on the issue of stability, there only exists one book on hypertopologies [Beer 1993]. The current book differs from Beer’s in that it contains a much more condensed explication of hypertopologies and is intended to help those not familiar with hypertopologies learn how to use them in the context of optimization problems. |

Diagnosing the System for Organizations $55.78 “Stafford Beer is undoubtedly among the world’s most provocative, creative, and profound thinkers on the subject of management, and he records his thinking with a flair that is unmatched. His writing is as much art as it is science. He is the most viable system I know.” Dr Russell L Ackoff, The Institute for Interactive Management, Pennsylvania, USA.”If—anyone can make it [Operations Research] understandably readable and positively interesting it is Stafford Beer—everyone in management ..should be grateful to him for using clear and at times elegant English and-even elegant diagrams.” The Economist In Brain of the Firm and The Heart of Enterprise Stafford Beer worked out the scientific laws that govern any viable system. They constitute the basis for this book which is concerned solely with the application of those laws to the understanding of any particular enterprise. In the form of a Handbook or Manager’s Guide, Diagnosing the System deals with the fundamental problem of management’how to cope with complexity itself. It shows you how to design (or redesign) an enterprise in conformity with the laws of viability, and will help you to diagnose faults in your organizational structure. |

Ein in der Phantasie durchgefuhrtes Experiment: Literatur und Wissenschaft nach Neunzehnhundert $64.13 The concept of Experiment seems to be an ambivalent topic in contemporary literary debate: on the one hand it is thought to be a mode concept of Naturalism and Avant-gardism related to the Sixties and Seventies. On the other hand, it has recently become a topic of particular interest. Indeed, literary research has all but focused on the concept of experimental literature, yet a convincing definition of this genre has not been yet formulated. The Experiment in literature can only be defined in a differential way: firstly, it always depends on a natural scientific concept of Experiment; secondly, an experimental literature develops itself from a classical tradition, after the latter has been recognized as such. The Experiment is therefore an unknown measure, an equation with at least two variables. This book offers some values, which try to fill the variables of this equation. It deals with authors as Emile Zola, Ernst Junger, Ernst Bloch, Gottfried Benn, Alfred Doblin, Bertolt Brecht, Ernst Weiss, Hermann Broch, Robert Musil, Carlfriedrich Claus, Heiner Muller, H.M. Enzensberger, Oswald Wiener and the Wiener Gruppe, Helmut Heissenbuttel, W.G. Sebald, Richard Beer-Hofmann, Durs Grunbein and Alexander Kluge. German text. |

Freedom of Interstate Trade and Commerce in the Australian Constitution Cases: Castlemaine Tooheys Ltd V South Australia $8.31 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Castlemaine Tooheys Ltd V South Australia, Bath V Alston Holdings Pty Ltd, Cole V Whitfield, Barley Marketing Board V Norman, Commonwealth V Bank of New South Wales. Not illustrated. Excerpt: Castlemaine Tooheys Ltd v South Australia (1990) 169 CLR 436 is a High Court of Australia case that deals with whether a particular Act of South Australia contravenes section 92 of the Australian Constitution, which is about the freedom of interstate trade. The Beverage Container Act 1975 (SA) required a mandatory deposit of 5 cents per bottle, which would be refunded when they were returned; refillable bottles were exempt from this deposit. A later amendment, the Beverage Container Act Amendment Act 1986 (SA) subjected non-refillable bottles to a refund of 15 cents and refillable bottles to a refund of 4 cents. Further more, the refund for non-refillable bottles was to be implemented by retailers, instead of a collection depot. The Bond brewing companies brewed beer outside of South Australia, and they used non-refillable bottles as opposed to their South Australian counterparts. Although a 5-cent deposit would not have disadvantaged the Bond companies, the later Act’s higher deposit and refund mechanism acted together to make their beer uncompetitive. Around the time of the amending Act, the Bond companies’ advertising campaign had increased their market share at the expense of the principal South Australian brewer. The plaintiffs sought a declaration that the laws were invalid as being contrary to section 92. Although all parties conceded that the increase in the deposit disadvantages the Bond companies, the question to be resolved was whether it was permissible for the State legislation to disadvantage interstate beer over local beer, if it on its … More: |

Geophysical Hazards: Minimizing Risk, Maximizing Awareness $129 This volume, written by the Hazards Science Team of the International Year of Planet Earth, brings together some of the most influential international scientists dealing with Natural Hazards and society’s response to natural hazards. It recognises that hazards, like poverty, will always be with us but that concerted and organised societal response can prevent a hazard becoming a disaster. By bringing together geoscientists, social scientists and those concerned with the administration of international science and international disaster reduction, this book details the state-of-the-science as well as the state-of-the-response in natural hazards.The contents of this volume fall into four parts:Part 1 deals with the IYPE Hazards Theme and its relation to society, emphasising that implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action requires a strong emphasis on human societies, human security, and that this can be achieved only through appropriate communication. Part 2 focuses on the response of the international scientific community. Part 3 concentrates on geophysical risk and sustainability by considering climate and climate change as well as the theory and the praxis involved in hazards, their prevention and mitigation. Part 4 relates to the observation and assessment of geo-hazards and risk. |

Geschichte, Offentlichkeit, Kommunikation: Festschrift fur Bernd Sosemann zum 65. Geburtstag $100.21 English summary:This Festschrift for Bernd Sosemann deals with the three large connected areas of his scientific work. Friends, students, and companions congratulate with contributions that cover the spectrum of the early modern period, to the 19th and 20 Centuries, and through to the present day. The focus lies on Prussia and Germany: theoretical, conceptual historical, source-critical, and biographical considerations come as much into play as the phenomena of public communication (e.g., propaganda stories, culture of remembrance, historical research on reading). But scientific history, business, economic, and cultural history, and the consideration of critical periods and turning points (Beer Hall Putsch, the revolutions of 1918-19 and 1848, the Daily Telegraph affair) will also be illuminated. German text. German description: Mit Geschichte, Offentlichkeit, Kommunikation thematisiert die Festschrift fur Bernd Sosemann die drei grossen vernetzten Bereiche seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten. Freunde, Schuler und Weggefahrten gratulieren mit Beitragen, die das Spektrum von der Fruhen Neuzeit uber das 19. und 20. Jahrhundert bis in die unmittelbare Gegenwart abdecken. Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf Preussen und Deutschland: theoretische, begriffsgeschichtliche, quellenkritische und biographische Uberlegungen kommen ebenso zum Tragen wie Phanomene offentlicher Kommunikation (u.a. Propagandageschichte, Erinnerungskultur, historische Leseforschung). Aber auch Wissenschaftshistorie, Unternehmens-, Wirtschafts- und Kulturgeschichte sowie nicht zuletzt die Betrachtung entscheidender Zeitabschnitte und Zasuren (Hitlerputsch, die Revolutionen von 1918/19 und 1848, Daily-Telegraph-Affare) werden beleuchtet. |

Industrial Applications $269 This volume gives a survey of the state of the art in the traditional fields of industrial mycology as well as of selected novel applications of fungi. The first section deals with the use of fungi in the production and processing of bread, cheese, beer and wine, traditional Asian fermentation products and edible mushrooms. The second section is devoted to the production of fungal metabolites and enzymes representing value-added products. In addition to antibiotics, alkaloids organic acids, vitamins and industrial enzymes, which have successfully been in use for decades, it is also dedicated to fungal metabolites, such as insecticidal and nematicidal compounds, immunosurppressants and flavors with promising biotechnological potential. In the next section, the recent developments in fungal biotransformation of small molecules, the bioconversion of lignocelluloses as well as the use of fungi in metal recovery are presented. The final part introduces some innovative new trends in the field of applied mycology: the preparation of fungal bioherbicides, recent genomic approaches for the identification of biopolymer degrading enzymes, current developments in using oxidative enzymes from fungi as well as new attempts to transfer fungal remediation technologies into practice. |
