"Black Ephemera explores the crisis and the challenge of the Black Musical archive in a moment when Black American culture has become a global import, yet the cultural DNA of that culture is becoming obscured in the transformation from analog to digital"--

Oto nowe, II wydanie popularnej akademickiej i profesjonalnej „biblii” tematu dotyczącego przeglądu technologii energetycznych. Książka zawiera podstawowe oraz pogłębione informacje o wszystkich stosowanych obecnie technologiach produkcji elektryczności i ciepła. W publikacji zarówno są opisane dobrze sprawdzone, konwencjonalne technologie paliw kopalnych, ale również obecnie bardzo silnie rozwijając się technologie źródeł odnawialnych, ogniwa paliwowe czy energetyka atomowa. Książka polecana jest zarówno studentom kierunków ENERGETYKA czy MECHANIKA I BUDOWA MASZYN, jak również praktykom – inżynierom energetykom, zakładam przemysłowym.

Pierwsze na polskim rynku studium poświęcone nowoczesnej i bardzo perspektywicznej technologii wykorzystania wodoru w XXI w. Energetyka wodorowa obejmuje nowoczesną i pojemną gałąź technologii energetycznych, na którą składają się sposoby wytwarzania wodoru, jego magazynowania, transportu i konwersji do różnych postaci energii. Książka znajdzie swoich Czytelników wśród słuchaczy studiów I, II i III stopnia oraz studiów podyplomowych na kierunkach związanych z ENERGETYKĄ, TRANSPORTEM, ELEKTROTECHNIKĄ czy INŻYNIERIĄ ŚRODOWISKA. Zainteresuje również inżynierów energetyków czy specjalistów OZE.

The #1 New York Times bestselling author returns with a visionary technothriller about climate change

This rich collection of fully worked problems in many areas of mathematics covers all the important subjects students are likely to encounter in their courses, from introductory to final-year undergraduate classes. Because lecture courses tend to focus on theory rather than examples, these exercises offer a valuable complement to classroom teachings, promoting the understanding of mathematical techniques and helping students prepare for exams. They will prove useful to undergraduates in mathematics; students in engineering, physics, and chemistry; and postgraduate scientists looking for a way to refresh their skills in specific topics. The problems can supplement lecture notes and any conventional text. Starting with functions, inequalities, limits, differentiation, and integration, topics encompass integral inequalities, power series and convergence, complex variables, hyperbolic function, vector and matrix algebra, Laplace transforms, Fourier series, vector calculus, and many other subjects.

"The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Seveneves, Anathem, Reamde, and Cryptonomicon returns with a wildly inventive and entertaining science fiction thriller--Paradise Lost by way of Philip K. Dick--that unfolds in the near future, in parallel worlds"-- Provided by publisher

"Even in the most technical sections, the authors' writing is delightfully lucid, and they give many applications to classical and modern physics . . . Undergraduates, and those who require some understanding of special relativity for their work in other fields, will find this elegant work a pleasure to read." — Technology This concise account of special relativity is geared toward nonspecialists and belongs in the library of anyone interested in the subject and its applications to both classical and modern physics. The treatment takes a historical point of view, without making heavy demands on readers' mathematical abilities; in fact, the theory is developed without the use of tensor calculus, requiring only a working knowledge of three-dimensional vector analysis. Topics include detailed coverage of the Lorentz transformation, including optical and dynamical applications, and applications to modern physics. An excellent bibliography completes this compact, accessible presentation.
