Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. To mention the names Ernst Gombrich, Nikolaus Pevsner, Joseph Conrad, Nancy Astor, CLR James and Lucian Freud is to give but a brief glimpse of the impact immigrants to this country have made on our national culture and character. Indeed, these people have been crucial to the development of recent British history and have been indispensable in shaping the way we live now. This collection of obituaries from The Times of some of the most important of these people gives the reader a unique view of their contribution. It becomes clear that this contribution has been a determinant factor in British history.This book covers politics, business, art, architecture, music and sport, as well as philosophy and religion. The breadth and depth of the influence of immigrants is thus reinforced. The Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, contributes a fascinating introduction surveying our historical and cultural landscape. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Solid hardcover.; Facsimile reprint of three works, originally published in 1905, 1814, and 1815, respectively: War Inconsistent with the Religion of Jesus Christ, by David low Dodge, with an intrododuction by Edwin D. Mead; The Lawfulness of War for Christians, examined, by James Mott; A Solemn Review of the Custom of War, by Noah Worcester. "Influenced to some extent by the ideas of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment; Dodge and Worcester made use of the utilitarian case against war alongside religious arguments (though neither they nor other early nineteenth-century advocates of peace penetrated very deeply into the economic causes of conflict). They were divided, however, concerning the limits of pacifism." - new introduction by Peter Brock. ; The Garland Library of War and Peace; Ex-Library; 11, xx, 168, 33, 23 pages. …

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. dj in mylar; blue c w/silver gilt spine titles; Review slip laid in; 433 clean, unmarked pages/index.a lovely copy of a foundational textbook explaining how scientists use sound waves to map large-scale ocean features like temperature, currents, and salinity, treating the ocean like an acoustic "CT scan" by analyzing how sound travels through it to understand its internal structure and dynamics, crucial for oceanography and climate studies.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The problem of ocean acoustic tomography is to infer from precise measurements of travel time, or other properties of acoustic propagation, the state of the ocean traversed by a sound field. Tomography takes advantage of two facts: that travel time and other measurable acoustic parameters are functions of temperature, water velocity, and other parameters of oceanographic interest, and can be interpreted to provide information about the intervening ocean using inverse methods; and that the ocean is virtually transparent to low-frequency sound, so that signals can be transmitted over distances of many thousands of kilometres. It is therefore possible to prepare a practical system of transmitters and receivers to interpret the behaviour of the oceans. This book gives a comprehensive presentation of the underlying oceanography and mathematics necessary to understand and develop such a system. It covers the forward and inverse tomography problem, as well as numerous models for data interpretation. Also included is an epilogue outlining the history of tomographic techniques. It should prove a valuable resource to oceanographers and climatologists, as well as applied mathematicians and engineers interested in applications of fluid mechanics tools.…
