Focusing on experimental data analysis in the natural sciences, this guide emphasizes sustainable processing routines through a programmer's lens. It adopts a clear problem-solution-discussion format, making it accessible for practitioners. The inclusion of Python code snippets enhances the practical application of concepts, providing readers with valuable tools for effective data analysis.
The book offers a comprehensive overview of Armin Hofmann's graphic work and his influential teaching methods that have shaped generations of graphic designers. It emphasizes his professional ethos centered on reduction, pragmatism, and a strong sense of responsibility. Structured in three parts, it includes an analysis of his designs, his biography, and original texts discussing various aspects of his career. Contributions from former students and colleagues provide personal insights and showcase Hofmann's global impact, drawing from his extensive private archive for authenticity.
Data Management for Natural Scientists offers a practical guide for scientific processing of data. It covers the way from “getting hands on” experimental results to ensuring their use for addressing various scientific questions. Code snippets are provided in order to introduce the proposed workstream and to demonstrate the adjustability to specific challenges.
An interdisciplinary investigation into how colors vary in the eyes and minds of people across cultures worldwide The title of this volume and its accompanying exhibition at the Museum of World Cultures in Frankfurt alludes to ancient Japanese poetry in which the sky is sometimes described as green and the grass as blue. The world is full of color no matter where one looks, but not every culture interprets the spectrum of shades in the same way, nor do individual people always see the same colors despite our physiological similarities. This publication highlights pieces from the museum's collection, ranging in origin from the Amazon to Tibet, as anthropological case studies in the exploration of color and the meanings ascribed to different hues. In concert with essays from the fields of philosophy, linguistics and physics, Green Sky, Blue Grassuncovers the complexity of human perception across the globe.
