Music Printing in Renaissance Venice
Venetian music print culture of the mid-sixteenth century is presented here through a study of the Scotto press, one of the foremost dynastic music publishers of the Renaissance. For over a century, the house of Scotto played a pivotal role in the international book trade, publishing in a variety of fields including philosophy, medicine, religion, and music. This book examines the mercantile activities of the firm through both a historical study, which illuminates the wide world of the Venetian music printing industry, and a catalog, which details the music editions brought out by the firm during its most productive period. A valuable reference work, this book not only enhances our understanding of the socioeconomic and cultural history of Renaissance Venice, it also helps to preserve our knowledge of a vast musical repertory.
Dynamics of the Coastal Zone
The coastal zone is the host to many human activities, which have significantly increased in the last decades. However, sea level rise and more frequent storm events severely affect beaches and coastal structures, with negative consequences and dramatic impacts on coastal communities. These aspects add to typical coastal problems, like flooding and beach erosion, which already leading to large economic losses and human fatalities. Modeling is thus fundamental for an exhaustive understanding of the nearshore region in the present and future environment. Innovative tools and technologies may help to better understand coastal processes in terms of hydrodynamics, sediment transport, bed morphology, and their interaction with coastal structures. This book collects several contributions focusing on nearshore dynamics, and span among several time and spatial scales using both physical and numerical approaches. The aim is to describe the most recent advances in coastal dynamics.
Antonio Gardano, Venetian Music Printer, 1538-1569
Antonio Gardano's publications are among the most important sources of sixteenth-century music. This final volume in Mary Lewis's three volume set completes the catalogue of Antonio Gardano's publications, covering the years 1560-1569.
Biased Trials
Goran Dominioni argues that research in behavioral economics, psychology, and neurosciences can offer novel insights on whether court decisions are accurate, non-discriminatory, and maximize social welfare. The author also shows that insights from these areas of research can help to improve trial outcomes if carefully applied to craft trial rules and practices. He covers central themes in behavioral law and economics, such as implicit racial biases, the fundamental attribution error, and gender-related biases.

Music and Science in the Age of Galileo
Music and Science in the Age of Galileo features twelve new essays by leading specialists in the fields of musicology, history of science, astronomy, philosophy, and instrument building that explore the relations between music and the scientific culture of Galileo's time. The essays take a broad historical approach towards understanding such topics as the role of music in Galileo's experiments and in the scientific revolution, the musical formation of scientists, Galileo's impact on the art and music of his time, the scientific knowledge of instrument builders, and the scientific experiments and cultural context of Galileo's father, Vincenzo Galilei. This volume opens up new areas in both mu...
Slow Tsunami
It is the story of a big journey, of a ship that sails on the seas and of an underground ship where olive oil was once produced. It is the metaphor of the dreams of a man who has been crushed by life. A man who has made generations of readers dream. This man was Emilio Salgari, the creator of Sandokan, and this is his odyssey, between fantasy and reality.
Chaos And Fractals In Chemical Engineering - Proceedings Of The First National Conference
This conference focused on the current research and future perspectives on the application of disordered systems theory, fractals and chaotic dynamical systems to chemical engineering problems. The contributions published here are organised around 4 main themes: Chaos (Analysis and Control) in Reactors and Reacting Systems; Transport in Disordered Media; Time-Series Analysis; and Multiphase Flow Characterization.
