Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book posits a novel framework for sense making and meaning making in the play of video games. Extending a modern, process oriented, audience inclusive philosophy of artistic meaning generation, this book grapples with the ques…tion of how to personally and critically examine video games as artistic artifacts that do not have set, predetermined, standardized forms until live play is enacted. The resulting artistic product, live gameplay, expresses both the game's developers and its players.This book argues that players hold three separate, concurrent perspectives during play: the embodied avatar within the simulated space, the role playing participant in the narrative fantasy, and the external strategist manipulating the game's software affordances. The exciting dynamics that arise from live gameplay are the result of the tensions and harmonies between these three parallel layers of play.Video games are systems with designed behaviors capable of a great diversity of instantiated expressions. Players are brought into that system of instantiated generation to produce truly emergent and personal gameplay. As such, players directly impact the shape and form of the gameplay artifact itself. This creates a relationship between the art, the player, and its meaning radically different from all previous art forms.This book builds around this central premise with examinations of related subjects pertaining to video game meaning making, such as the ways in which video games facilitate play that is expressive of their players and the ways in which it is appropriate to compare and contextualize the differences in players' instantiated play activities. These subjects are designed to give readers an in depth understanding of the dynamics of gameplay in order to facilitate richer, more meaningful encounters with video games as cultural artifacts.This book:Provides a useful framework for enriching players' experiences with video game play.Helps players identify and distinguish aspects of their own and game developers' expression in gameplay.Posits a novel framework examining the role of player as embodied avatar, role player, and strategist.Gives players appropriate questions to better interrogate the generation of meaning from within and surrounding the system of gameplay. 416 pp. Englisch.

Flood determination methods have evolved over the years, but must continue to progres…s given the degree of uncertainty surrounding the assessment of extreme floods and the fact that factors external to flooding must be taken into account in risk assessment. This ICOLD Bulletin 187 follows in the footsteps of the previous one. It consists of three main chapters following the introductory chapter. The second chapter examines the main aspects of flood volume. The third chapter follows on from the previous bulletin and looks in more detail at stochastic approaches to flood risk assessment. The final chapter deals with the forecasting aspects of proactive flood management. Case studies illustrating short-, medium- and long-term management challenges are presented in Appendix A.Les critères de conception pour la construction ou la réhabilitation des barrages et des structures hydrauliques commencent généralement par une section définissant la crue de projet. Les méthodes de détermination des crues ont évolué au fil des ans, mais elles doivent continuer à progresser étant donné le degré d'incertitude concernant l'évaluation des crues extrêmes et le fait que les facteurs externes aux crues doivent être pris en compte dans l'évaluation des risques. Ce ICOLD Bulletin 187 suit les traces du précédent bulletin. Il se compose de trois chapitres principaux faisant suite au chapitre d'introduction. Le deuxième chapitre examine les principaux aspects liés au volume des crues. Le troisième chapitre fait suite au bulletin précédent et aborde plus en détail les approches stochastiques concernant l'évaluation des risques de crues. Le dernier chapitre traite des aspects prévisionnels liés à la gestion proactive des crues. Des études de cas illustrant les défis de gestion à court, moyen ou long terme sont présentées à l'annexe A. 226 pp. Englisch.

Hence, the book starts with the structures of biochemicals and the identification of their metal binding sites. Thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the complexes are explained from the point of view of the nature of metal-ligand bonds. Various catalytic and structural roles of metal ions in biochemicals are discussed in detail.FeaturesThe role of Na+ and K+ in brain chemistry.The role of zinc insulin in glucose metabolism and its enhancement by vanadium and chromium compounds.Discussion of the role of zinc signals, zinc fingers and cascade effect in biochemistry.Haemoglobin synthesis and the role of vitamin B12 in it.The role of lanthanides in biochemical systems.A detailed discussion of the role of non-metals in biochemistry, a topic missing in most of the books on bio-inorganic chemistry.The study of bio-inorganic chemistry makes biochemists rethink the mechanistic pathways of biochemical reactions mediated by metal ions. There is arealisation of the role of metal complexes and inorganic ions as therapeutics such as iron in leukaemia, thalassemia and sickle cell anaemia, iodine in hypothyroidism and zinc, vanadium and chromium in glucose metabolism. The most recent realisation is of the use of zinc in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. 294 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book posits a novel framework for sense making and meaning making in the play of video games. Extending a modern, process oriented, audience inclusive philosophy of artistic meaning generation, this book grapples with the question…of how to personally and critically examine video games as artistic artifacts that do not have set, predetermined, standardized forms until live play is enacted. The resulting artistic product, live gameplay, expresses both the game's developers and its players.This book argues that players hold three separate, concurrent perspectives during play: the embodied avatar within the simulated space, the role playing participant in the narrative fantasy, and the external strategist manipulating the game's software affordances. The exciting dynamics that arise from live gameplay are the result of the tensions and harmonies between these three parallel layers of play.Video games are systems with designed behaviors capable of a great diversity of instantiated expressions. Players are brought into that system of instantiated generation to produce truly emergent and personal gameplay. As such, players directly impact the shape and form of the gameplay artifact itself. This creates a relationship between the art, the player, and its meaning radically different from all previous art forms.This book builds around this central premise with examinations of related subjects pertaining to video game meaning making, such as the ways in which video games facilitate play that is expressive of their players and the ways in which it is appropriate to compare and contextualize the differences in players' instantiated play activities. These subjects are designed to give readers an in depth understanding of the dynamics of gameplay in order to facilitate richer, more meaningful encounters with video games as cultural artifacts.This book:Provides a useful framework for enriching players' experiences with video game play.Helps players identify and distinguish aspects of their own and game developers' expression in gameplay.Posits a novel framework examining the role of player as embodied avatar, role player, and strategist.Gives players appropriate questions to better interrogate the generation of meaning from within and surrounding the system of gameplay.
