Francis John Jayne, D.D., Bishop of Chester 1889-1919 -- Index. -- From chapter V: `The Worshipping and Adoration of Images is not a proper development from anything taught or sanctioned by Christ or His Apostles. On the contrary, it is plainly "repugnant to the Word of God" (Article XXII.). In the early days of the Church nothing more distinctively marked off Christianity from paganism than that Christian people were wont to pray to God direct, with a clear apprehension of His omnipresence and of His accessibility at all times and in all places.' (p. 186) -- From chapter VI: `The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary is a daring falsehood, unworthy of the pure and holy woman in whose behalf it has been put forth, and in itself--even if true--raising an idle and useless question. Its only purpose is to furnish some show of the miraculous which will prepare those who belong to the Roman Communion to receive and to practise without question those devotional extravagances and superstitions.' (p. 236 f.).

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an in-depth analysis of early American dentistry, focusing on the significant contributions of pioneers in the field. It examines the evolution of dentistry from its humble beginnings in the hands of barbers, blacksmiths, and tinkerers to its establishment as a distinct profession in the mid-19th century. The author explores the impact of key figures such as Joseph Lemaire, the first American dental preceptor, and Josiah Flagg, one of the first native-born American dentists, who played pivotal roles in shaping the profession's standards and practices. Through a captivating retelling of their lives and accomplishments, the book highlights the challenges and triumphs faced by these early dental practitioners and the enduring legacy they left behind in shaping the foundation of modern dentistry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Mobile robots are playing an increasingly important role in our world. Remotely operated vehicles are in everyday use for hazardous tasks such as charting and cleaning up hazardous waste spills, construction work of tunnels and high rise buildings, and underwater inspection of oil drilling platforms in the ocean. A whole host of further applications, however, beckons robots capable of autonomous operation without or with very little intervention of human operators. Such robots of the future will explore distant planets, map the ocean floor, study the flow of pollutants and carbon dioxide through our atmosphere and oceans, work in underground mines, and perform other jobs we cannot even imagine; perhaps even drive our cars and walk our dogs. The biggest technical obstacles to building mobile robots are vision and navigation-enabling a robot to see the world around it, to plan and follow a safe path through its environment, and to execute its tasks. At the Carnegie Mellon Robotics Institute, we are studying those problems both in isolation and by building complete systems. Since 1980, we have developed a series of small indoor mobile robots, some experimental, and others for practical applicationr Our outdoor autonomous mobile robot research started in 1984, navigating through the campus sidewalk network using a small outdoor vehicle called the Terregator. In 1985, with the advent of DARPA's Autonomous Land Vehicle Project, we constructed a computer controlled van with onboard sensors and researchers. In the fall of 1987, we began the development of a six-legged Planetary Rover.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Intelligent Unmanned Ground Vehicles describes the technology developed and the results obtained by the Carnegie Mellon Robotics Institute in the course of the DARPA Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) project. The goal of this work was to equip off-road vehicles with computer-controlled, unmanned driving capabilities. The book describes contributions in the area of mobility for UGVs including: tools for assembling complex autonomous mobility systems; on-road and off-road navigation; sensing techniques; and route planning algorithms. In addition to basic mobility technology, the book covers a number of integrated systems demonstrated in the field in realistic scenarios. The approaches presented in this book can be applied to a wide range of mobile robotics applications, from automated passenger cars to planetary exploration, and construction and agricultural machines. Intelligent Unmanned Ground Vehicles shows the progress that was achieved during this program, from brittle specially-built robots operating under highly constrained conditions, to groups of modified commercial vehicles operating in tough environments. One measure of progress is how much of this technology is being used in other applications. For example, much of the work in road-following, architectures and obstacle detection has been the basis for the Automated Highway Systems (AHS) prototypes currently under development. AHS will lead to commercial prototypes within a few years. The cross-country technology is also being used in the development of planetary rovers with a projected launch date within a few years. The architectural tools built under this program have been used in numerous applications, from an automated harvester to an autonomous excavator. The results reported in this work provide tools for further research development leading to practical, reliable and economical mobile robots.
