Allard
The remarkable story of everything Sydney Herbert Allard achieved in motor sport and motor car manufacture is framed in an up-to-date commentary co-authored by his own son. This is a tribute unswayed by legend, but based on the facts and achievements of his eponymous company. With contributions from the Allard Owners' Club and Allard Register, this book contains painstaking research of Allard history from 1929 to the present day, including previously unpublished material. Just under 2,000 Allards were built, and approximately 510 are believed to remain on the road or known to be under -restoration. More await discovery - even as this book was being written, one of Sydney's long-lost 1930s 'Allard Specials' has been found after years being forgotten. Other topics covered in this remarkable book include: car-by-car engineering and design details; unseen ideas and projects; the history of the Allard marque in motor sport and the Allard story in the USA. Finally, it features the Allard Owner's Club, Allard Register, members and their cars.
The Dying Fire
"Dominic Allard, in these writings, stands revealed as an authentic voice of factory-encircled meadows and windswept back-entries both, scribe of the crossroads in the Clare tradition, genuine street-corner poet without any of those donkey-jacket 1980s affectations or militant tendencies, a vivid and unlikely chimera come from a species long since thought extinct. His words speak of an almost-gone emotional reality, a since-subsided proletarian warmth, an honesty entirely unafraid of sentiment, a great clarity of the heart. The moments here are sharp and lucid, this despite the dusty pane we view them through. It is the dying fire that we see the most pictures in, and that yields up the most affecting imagery. Watch the sparks rising as he stirs the embers."- from the introduction by Alan Moore

Multi-Sensor Image Fusion and Its Applications
Taking another lesson from nature, the latest advances in image processing technology seek to combine image data from several diverse types of sensors in order to obtain a more accurate view of the scene: very much the same as we rely on our five senses. Multi-Sensor Image Fusion and Its Applications is the first text dedicated to the theory and practice of the registration and fusion of image data, covering such approaches as statistical methods, color-related techniques, model-based methods, and visual information display strategies. After a review of state-of-the-art image fusion techniques, the book provides an overview of fusion algorithms and fusion performance evaluation. The followin...

Latitudinal Controls on Stratigraphic Models and Sedimentary Concepts
It is self-evident that a better understanding of depositional systems and analogs leads to better inputs for geological models and better assessment of risk for plays and prospects in hydrocarbon exploration, as well as enhancing interpretations of earth history. Depositional environments - clastic and carbonate, fine- and coarse-grained, continental, marginal marine and deep marine - show latitudinal variations, which are sometimes extreme. Most familiar facies models derive from temperate and, to a lesser extent, tropical examples. By comparison, depositional analogs from higher latitudes are sparser in number and more poorly understood. Numerous processes are amplified and/or diminished ...
