The Later Anglo-Saxon Settlement at Bishopstone
Well known for the Early Anglo-Saxon settlement previously excavated on Rookery Hill and its impressive pre-Conquest church, Bishopstone has entered archaeological orthodoxy as a classic example of a 'Middle Saxon Shift'. This volume reports on the excavations from 2002 to 2005 designed to investigate this transition, with the focus on the origins of Bishopstone village. Excavations adjacent to St Andrews churchyard revealed a dense swathe of later Anglo-Saxon (8th- to late 10th-/early 11th-century) habitation, including a planned complex of timber halls, and a unique cellared tower. The occupation encroached upon a pre-Conquest cemetery of 43 inhumations.
Early Medieval Monasticism in the North Sea Zone
Anglo-Saxon Studies in Archaeology and History 20. Early Medieval Monasticism in the North Sea Zone: Recent Research and New Perspectives edited by Gabor Thomas and Alexandra Knox. ASSAH 20 is based upon the proceedings of an international conference held to celebrate the results of excavations targeting the Anglo-Saxon royal centre and monastery of Lyminge, Kent, 2008-15. Drawing upon the contributions of leading historians and archaeologists, the volume provides a fresh examination of monasticism in Anglo-Saxon Kent framed within its wider north-west European context, together with a range of complementary perspectives on the interlinked themes of Christianisation, kingdom formation and monastic expansion vividly illuminated through the archaeology of Lyminge.
Everybody Does It!
Gabor's analysis probes the whys and wherefores of crime, and reveals why some people are labeled and processed as criminals while others are not. Case studies raise crucial questions about law enforcement.
Advances in Gabor Analysis
The Applied and Numerical Harmonic Analysis (ANHA) book series aims to provide the engineering, mathematical, and scientific communities with significant developments in harmonic analysis, ranging from abstract har monic analysis to basic applications. The title of the series reflects the im portance of applications and numerical implementation, but richness and relevance of applications and implementation depend fundamentally on the structure and depth of theoretical underpinnings. Thus, from our point of view, the interleaving of theory and applications and their creative symbi otic evolution is axiomatic. Harmonic analysis is a wellspring of ideas and applicability that has flour ished, d...
Life and Economy at Early Medieval Flixborough, c. AD 600-1000
Between 1989 and 1991, excavations in the parish of Flixborough, North Lincolnshire, unearthed remains of an Anglo-Saxon settlement associated with one of the largest collections of artefacts and animal bones yet found on such a site. In an unprecedented occupation sequence from an Anglo-Saxon rural settlement, six main periods of occupation have been identified, dating from the seventh to the early eleventh centuries; with a further period of activity, between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries AD. The remains of approximately forty buildings and other structures were uncovered; and due to the survival of large refuse deposits, huge quantities of artefacts and faunal remains were encounter...
Summary of American Carnage by Fred Guttenberg and Thomas Gabor :
DISCLAIMER This book does not in any capacity mean to replace the original book but to serve as a vast summary of the original book. Summary of American Carnage by Fred Guttenberg and Thomas Gabor : Shattering the Myths That Fuel Gun Violence (School Safety, Violence in Society) IN THIS SUMMARIZED BOOK, YOU WILL GET: Chapter astute outline of the main contents. Fast & simple understanding of the content analysis. Exceptionally summarized content that you may skip in the original book Fred Guttenberg and Thomas Gabor, the author of American Carnage, aim to dismantle common myths about gun violence and gun ownership. The US has a dismal gun violence record, with over 40,000 deaths annually. The gun lobby and gun-extremists have been spreading misinformation for years, raising doubt about the dangers of pervasive gun ownership and the effectiveness of gun laws. Countering these myths is crucial for a safer society, where children can attend school and people can work without fear of being shot. The book exposes false myths such as gun owners using firearms to fend off attackers, an armed society is safer, and guns don't kill people.
Materializing Englishness in Early Medieval Texts
The aim of this book is to restore to the story of Englishness the lively material interactions between words, bodies, plants, stones, metals, and soil, among other things, that would have characterized it for the early medieval English themselves. In particular, each chapter demonstrates how a productive collapse, or fusion, between place and history happens not only in the intellectual realm, in ideas, but is also a material concern, becoming enfleshed in encounters between early medieval bodies and a host of material entities. Through readings of texts in a wide variety of genres including hagiography, heroic poetry, and medical and historical works, the book argues that Englishness during this period is an embodied identity emergent at the frontier of material and textual interactions that serve productively to occlude history, religion, and geography. The early medieval English body thus results from the rich encounter between the lived environment—climate, soil, landscape features, plants—and the textual-discursive realm that both determines what that environment means and is also itself determined by the material constraints of everyday life.
Gabor Analysis and Algorithms
In his paper Theory of Communication [Gab46], D. Gabor proposed the use of a family of functions obtained from one Gaussian by time-and frequency shifts. Each of these is well concentrated in time and frequency; together they are meant to constitute a complete collection of building blocks into which more complicated time-depending functions can be decomposed. The application to communication proposed by Gabor was to send the coeffi cients of the decomposition into this family of a signal, rather than the signal itself. This remained a proposal-as far as I know there were no seri ous attempts to implement it for communication purposes in practice, and in fact, at the critical time-frequency ...
Enough!: Solving America's Gun Violence Crisis
Life in America feels more dangerous today. There are 40,000 gun-related deaths each year and nearly one mass shooting every day in the United States. Despite the annual death toll and sobering statistics, how can we turn fear into action? How can survivors fight back? When is enough finally enough? There's evidence that change is coming. International gun policy consultant Thomas Gabor offers a roadmap of bold solutions that tackle every side of gun violence. You'll learn: Why we need to create a gun licensing system, ban military-style weapons and enact stricter gun carrying regulations. Ways to improve oversight of the gun industry and hold them accountable. Why it's critical to repeal laws like Stand Your Ground that enable lethal force. About a grassroots bill of rights for people who reject a society awash in guns. ENOUGH! is the most up-to-date guide for any change agent, activist, or concerned citizen who seeks a safer world.
Confronting Gun Violence in America
This book critically examines the link between guns and violence. It weighs the value of guns for self-protection against the adverse effects of gun ownership and carrying. It also analyses the role of public opinion, the Second Amendment to the US Constitution, and the firearms industry and lobby in impeding efforts to prevent gun violence. Confronting Gun Violence in America explores solutions to the gun violence problem in America, a country where 90 people die from gunshot wounds every day. The wide-range of solutions assessed include: a national gun licensing system; universal background checks; a ban on military-style weapons; better regulatory oversight of the gun industry; the use of technologies, such as the personalization of weapons; child access prevention; repealing laws that encourage violence; changing violent norms; preventing retaliatory violence; and strategies to rebuild American communities. This accessible and incisive book will be of great interest to students and researchers in criminology and sociology, as well as practitioners and policy-makers with an interest in gun ownership and violence.
