Grounded
Acclaimed authors of Angle of Attack, Malmquist and Rapoport, confront the many crises affecting the aviation industry. Starting with the mistakes surrounding the 737 MAX, continuing through the covid-19 pandemic and future economic and environmental concerns, the authors walk us through issues concerning finance, safety and viability of an industry that is considered in many ways too big to fail. Are the bail outs being administered from governments this year's banking bailout and are they as essential and what can be done in the future to ensure people feel safe to fly and airlines can re-imagine themselves for the future.
Angle d'attaque
« Vous n’avez pas besoin d’être un pilote pour trouver ce livre émouvant et captivant. Les auteurs expliquent clairement la série d’événements qui ont fait toute la différence entre les centaines de milliers de vols sécurisés et routiniers, et ceux qui ont tourné au drame. » Le 1er juin 2009 s’abimait en mer le vol Air France 447. La chute de l’Airbus 330 qui effectuait la liaison Rio-Paris ôta la vie à ses 228 passagers et membres d’équipage, devenant ainsi la plus grande catastrophe de l’aviation française. À l’occasion du 10e anniversaire de la tragédie, Roger Rapoport (journaliste d’investigation) et Shem Malmquist (commandant de bord, instructeur et en...

Lejeune is a leading European critic and theorist of diary and autobiography. His landma...

Citizen Moore
Investigative reporter Roger Rapoport interviewed over 200 people who played key roles in Michael Moore's life, from the nuns at his boyhood Catholic school to Ralph Nader and other employers - not to mention a seven-foot chicken! For the first time this definitive biography traces the untold story of the 30 years of struggles and failures that led to the "overnight" success of this quintessential late bloomer.
The Theory of the Avant-garde
Convinced that all aspects of modern culture have been affected by avant-garde art, Renato Poggioli explores the relationship between the avant-garde and civilization. Historical parallels and modern examples from all the arts are used to show how the avant-garde is both symptom and cause of many major extra-aesthetic trends of our time, and that the contemporary avant-garde is the sole and authentic one.
Knowledge Graphs
This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to knowledge graphs, which have recently garnered notable attention from both industry and academia. Knowledge graphs are founded on the principle of applying a graph-based abstraction to data, and are now broadly deployed in scenarios that require integrating and extracting value from multiple, diverse sources of data at large scale. The book defines knowledge graphs and provides a high-level overview of how they are used. It presents and contrasts popular graph models that are commonly used to represent data as graphs, and the languages by which they can be queried before describing how the resulting data graph can be enhanced ...
