One morning in March of 1999, in one of the historical quarters of Milan, Anna Valeria Borsari hangs two oval paintings on the wall of a dilapidated house which had been condemned for demolition. One picture is of a man, the other of a woman. Where the pictures are hung, there are no signs referring to the artist, the faces in the pictures to the glance of the passersby are just as they are. And so begins the public history of Spaccato urbano (Urban Rupture) (1999). Emanuela De Cecco analyzes at a short distance this artwork relating it to other episodes of the artist's production where are addressed with extreme lucidity as well the implications aroused by the artworks' presence in the urban spaces.
No hay justicia social posible sin planificación ni diálogo entre el Estado y la Comunidad Organizada. Salir de la administración de lo existente para empezar a transformar la realidad es un desafío que tenemos que asumir desde el Estado y desde los movimientos sociales. Este libro es hijo de esa idea. Natalia Vinelli y Mariano Suárez coordinan y publican una serie de trabajos sobre los proyectos de infraestructura en conectividad impulsados desde 2020 en Barrios Populares y, en menor medida, en zonas rurales de baja densidad poblacional. Se trata de una revisión crítica promovida por especialistas y protagonistas de la comunicación popular. Desde 2020 se conectaron más de mil barri...
Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.
This book presents recent mathematical methods in the area of inverse problems in imaging with a particular focus on the computational aspects and applications. The formulation of inverse problems in imaging requires accurate mathematical modeling in order to preserve the significant features of the image. The book describes computational methods to efficiently address these problems based on new optimization algorithms for smooth and nonsmooth convex minimization, on the use of structured (numerical) linear algebra, and on multilevel techniques. It also discusses various current and challenging applications in fields such as astronomy, microscopy, and biomedical imaging. The book is intended for researchers and advanced graduate students interested in inverse problems and imaging.

Scholars have traditionally viewed the Italian Renaissance artist as a gifted, but poorly educated craftsman whose complex and demanding works were created with the assistance of a more educated advisor. These assumptions are, in part, based on research that has focused primarily on the artist's social rank and workshop training. In this volume, Angela Dressen explores the range of educational opportunities that were available to the Italian Renaissance artist. Considering artistic formation within the history of education, Dressen focuses on the training of highly skilled, average artists, revealing a general level of learning that was much more substantial than has been assumed. She emphasizes the role of mediators who had a particular interest in augmenting artists' knowledge, and highlights how artists used Latin and vernacular texts to gain additional knowledge that they avidly sought. Dressen's volume brings new insights into a topic at the intersection of early modern intellectual, educational, and art history.
Observational Gait Analysis is written to assist physical therapists and physicians to effectively evaluate pathological gait. It presents a method of gait analysis which can easily be applied in the clinic. The first edition, Normal and Pathological Gait Syllabus, was published in 1981. In 1989 theObservational Gait Analysis Handbook was published. The third edition contains changes in the normal joint ranges of motion as a result of more sophisticated and accurateequipment. Muscle actively has been revised to reflect data from a larger sample size. The phases and functional tasks are defined, and a problem solving approach to observational gaitanalysis is presented.
Explores four key questions around Roman funerary customs that change our view of the society and its values.
