Envisioning Architecture
The first in a series of books that will showcase works from The Museum of Modern Art's superlative holdings in the fields of architecture and design, this text features a range of drawings by great architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Alvar Aalto.
Functional Nanomaterials and Devices for Electronics, Sensors and Energy Harvesting
This book contains reviews of recent experimental and theoretical results related to nanomaterials. It focuses on novel functional materials and nanostructures in combination with silicon on insulator (SOI) devices, as well as on the physics of new devices and sensors, nanostructured materials and nano scaled device characterization. Special attention is paid to fabrication and properties of modern low-power, high-performance, miniaturized, portable sensors in a wide range of applications such as telecommunications, radiation control, biomedical instrumentation and chemical analysis. In this book, new approaches exploiting nanotechnologies (such as UTBB FD SOI, Fin FETs, nanowires, graphene or carbon nanotubes on dielectric) to pave a way between “More Moore” and “More than Moore” are considered, in order to create different kinds of sensors and devices which will consume less electrical power, be more portable and totally compatible with modern microelectronics products.
The Changing of the Avant-garde
Featuring 165 expertly reproduced visionary architectural drawings from The Museum of Modern Art's Howard Gilman Archive, this collection brings together a selection of idealized, fantastic and utopian architectural drawings.
MoMA Highlights Since 1980
At the core of The Museum of Modern Art's new building in Midtown Manhattan are dramatic and expansive new galleries devoted to showcasing the Museum's world-famous collection of international contemporary art. Contemporary Highlights presents this impressive collection in a portable size. This new handbook features curators' selections of the most significant artworks of the past twenty-five years. Interweaving 250 highlights from the Museum's seven curatorial departments - architecture and design, drawing, film, media, painting and sculpture, photography and prints, and illustrated books - this volume presents a broadly chronological overview of the innovative, provocative and always fascinating art of the past quarter century. Each work is presented on its own page in full colour, and each is accompanied by a brief and accessible essay outlining the work's significance. As a companion to MoMA Highlights or on its own, Contemporary Highlights is an indispensable publication for those interested in contemporary art and the collection of The Museum of Modern Art.

Obecność plakatów wyborczych jest elementem rytuału demokracji. Należą one do współczesnej ikonosfery, są traktowane jako irytujący, ale konieczny rekwizyt demokratycznego spektaklu. Czas ich życia w przestrzeni publicznej jest krótki – pojawiają się w kampaniach wyborczych zaledwie na kilka tygodni. Po ich zakończeniu są usuwane przez nadawców (zgodnie z przepisami powinno to nastąpić w ciągu 30 dni od ogłoszenia wyniku wyborów), zaklejane następnymi reklamami albo zdzierane w części bądź w całości przez konkurencję polityczną lub publiczność. Ze wstępu Autorka stara się nie tracić z pola widzenia głównej idei, iż świat, w którym żyjemy, jest rzec...
Workspheres
In the past, work has shaped the way we live. In the near future, the way we live may shape the way we work. Workspheres creatively confronts the design demands of the ever-evolving contemporary work environment. Featuring design products, prototypes, and models, as well as previewing a ground-breaking exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, this exciting book introduces work concepts originated by internationally recognized designers who address the unique needs of specific work scenarios, including the nomadic office of a business traveler; the domestic office; the virtual office; and more traditional offices in settings configured for group interaction. Essays and commentaries by an international group of design experts explore such themes as individuality within a corporation; the impact of digital technology on the organization of time and schedule; and the economic significance of flexible work configurations. Copiously illustrated, this source-book will be of wide popular interest.
Evolution of Silicon Sensor Technology in Particle Physics
In the post era of the Z and W discovery, after the observation of Jets at UA1 and UA2 at CERN, John Ellis visioned at a HEP conference at Lake Tahoe, California in 1983 “To proceed with high energy particle physics, one has to tag the avour of the quarks!” This statement re ects the need for a highly precise tracking device, being able to resolve secondary and tertiary vertices within high-particle densities. Since the d- tance between the primary interaction point and the secondary vertex is proportional tothelifetimeoftheparticipatingparticle,itisanexcellentquantitytoidentifypar- cle avour in a very fast and precise way. In colliding beam experiments this method was applied especially...
Dzierżyński. Miłość i rewolucja
"Namiętny kochanek, zaślepiony fanatyk, wrażliwy morderca Nie męcz się. Zrób Feliksa szczęśliwym. Żegnaj, całuję ‒ napisała zrozpaczona kobieta w ostatnim liście do siostry. Dramatyczne samobójstwo zakończyło skandaliczny trójkąt erotyczny, który połączył Michalinę i Sabinę Feinsteinówny z towarzyszem Dzierżyńskim. Podobnie jak dziesiątkom innych kobiet, które związały się z „czerwonym katem” ‒ nie było im pisane szczęście. Wierzę tylko w naukę Chrystusa (...) Wierzę, że Bóg Chrystus ‒ to Miłość. Innego Boga oprócz Niego nie mam ‒ pisał Dzierżyński – krystalicznie uczciwy polski szlachcic, krewny Józefa Piłsudskiego, kochający o...
