Between Hell and Tombstone
From Saddlebag Dispatches Magazine, the Award-Winning Home of All Things Western, comes Between Hell and Tombstone, a new anthology bringing you the best of the untamed west. Paul Colt, Anthony Wood, and P.A. O’Neil headline a roster of western writers including old hands like J.R. Wolff and Alex Slusar but with a great selection of newer talent such as David Bowmore, Julianne Metzger Taylor, and Megan McCain. Walk with them down the dusty streets of Tombstone to the O.K. Corral or the Bird Cage Theatre. Ride the revenge trail with Wyatt and Doc. Hide in the shadows hoping your young bride can clear your name. Make the perilous journey through Apache country from Fort Huachuca to anywhere. This is a land where, as Kipling wrote, “the ’eat could make your bloomin’ eyebrows crawl,” where a summer monsoon can wash away everything in its path, and where life is cheap and a bullet is cheaper. Between Hell and Tombstone will grab you with an iron grip and shake you like a dog with a bone. Just try to put it down.
Digital Culture and the U.S.-Mexico Border
Conceptualizing how digital artifacts can function as a frontier mediated by technology in the geographical, physical, sensory, visual, discursive, and imaginary, this volume offers an interdisciplinary analysis of digital material circulating online in a way that creates a digital dimension of the Mexico-U.S. border. In the context of a world where digital media has helped to shape geopolitical borders and impacted human mobility in positive and negative ways, the book explores new modes of expression in which identification, memory, representation, persuasion, and meaning-making are created, experienced, and/or circulated through digital technologies. An interdisciplinary team of scholars ...
Banach Algebras and the General Theory of *-Algebras: Volume 2, *-Algebras
This is the second volume of a two-volume set that provides a modern account of basic Banach algebra theory including all known results on general Banach *-algebras. The author emphasizes the roles of *-algebra structure and explores the algebraic results which underlie the theory of Banach algebras and *-algebras. Proofs are presented in complete detail at a level accessible to graduate students. The books will become the standard reference for the general theory of *-algebras. This second volume deals with *-algebras. Chapter 9 develops the theory of *-algebras without additional restrictions. Chapter 10 proves nearly all the results previously known for Banach *-algebras and hermitian Banach *-algebras for *-algebras with various essentially algebraic restrictions. Chapter 11 restates the previous results in terms of Banach *-algebras and uses them to prove results explicitly involving the complete norm. Chapter 12 is devoted to locally compact groups and the *-algebras related to them.
Banach Algebras and the General Theory of *-Algebras: Volume 1, Algebras and Banach Algebras
This is the first volume of a two volume set that provides a modern account of basic Banach algebra theory including all known results on general Banach *-algebras. This account emphasizes the role of *-algebraic structure and explores the algebraic results that underlie the theory of Banach algebras and *-algebras. The first volume, which contains previously unpublished results, is an independent, self-contained reference on Banach algebra theory. Each topic is treated in the maximum interesting generality within the framework of some class of complex algebras rather than topological algebras. Proofs are presented in complete detail at a level accessible to graduate students. The book contains a wealth of historical comments, background material, examples, particularly in noncommutative harmonic analysis, and an extensive bibliography. Volume II is forthcoming.
Applied Computer Sciences in Engineering
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2020, held in Bogota, Colombia, in October 2020. The 32 revised full papers and 12 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 136 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: computational intelligence; computer science; optimization; bioengineering; military applications; simulation, IoT and networks; power applications.
Banking Systems in the Crisis
Based on detailed comparative case studies, this new volume from a leading international group of authors reveals fundamental differences in the economic and political ideology underlying the the six Anglo-Saxon 'liberal market economies' (LMEs), and how this determined their relative resilience in the face of the global financial crisis.
Monetary and Macroprudential Policy Coordination Among Multiple Equilibria
The notion of a tradeoff between output and financial stabilization is based on monetary-macroprudential models with unique equilibria. Using a game theory setup, this paper shows that multiple equilibria lead to qualitatively different results. Monetary and macroprudential authorities have tools that impose externalities on each other's objectives. One of the tools (macroprudential) is coarse, while the other (monetary policy) is unconstrained. We find that this asymmetry always leads to multiple equilibria, and show that under economically relevant conditions the authorities prefer different equilibria. Giving the unconstrained authority a weight on "helping" the constrained authority ("leaning against the wind") now has unexpected effects. The relation between this weight and the difficulty of coordinating is hump-shaped, and therefore a small degree of leaning worsens outcomes on both authorities' objectives.
The Qur'ân's Self Image
What does the Qur'an mean, then, when it so often calls itself Kitab, a term usually taken both by Muslims and by Western scholars to mean "book"?".
