One Hundred Years of Pressure
This monograph investigates the development of hydrostatics as a science. In the process, it sheds new light on the nature of science and its origins in the Scientific Revolution. Readers will come to see that the history of hydrostatics reveals subtle ways in which the science of the seventeenth century differed from previous periods. The key, the author argues, is the new insights into the concept of pressure that emerged during the Scientific Revolution. This came about due to contributions from such figures as Simon Stevin, Pascal, Boyle and Newton. The author compares their work with Galileo and Descartes, neither of whom grasped the need for a new conception of pressure. As a result, t...
Disturbing the Dust
Jenny Tomlinson has complex feelings about her unusual childhood in England. She is teaching at a school in Australia, when memories of traumatic events, also concerning a dear friend Terry, surface, become intrusive and begin to threaten her emotional well-being. She knows she needs to examine them further and, on returning home, her subsequent quest to prove Terry innocent has unexpected repercussions. This authentic and moving novel explores the psychological fallout from false accusations - on both the victims and the accusers - and the power of perseverance, forgiveness and love.

My Epitaph
A liberating way to get your own work published, make a million, and possibly change the world. My Epitaph Our Legacy is a very simple idea based on the premise that best sellers can make millions of pounds for the writers, publishers, distributors and retailers of books. If you take the time to submit your own epitaph, your work will be published in the next volume, available for you to purchase should you wish to do so. You are then entitled to join the OUR LEGACY marketing program, promoting the books for a share of the profits, and hopefully through your enthusiasm for the project others will contribute and join in too. This is a unique opportunity to have the final word on life, love, relationships, or anything else that comes to mind. Bitter, twisted, funny, poetic or just plain weird, your submission is added to the next edition so you can be proud and show your friends your published work.
Exploring Learning Ecologies
Learning ecologies are a new way of interpreting our presence and actions in the world. An ecology of practice for the purpose of learning and performing provides us with opportunities for action, information, knowledge and other resources. It includes the contexts and places we inhabit and the spaces we create to reason and imagine. It includes our processes and activities for performing and creating new value. It includes our relationships and the tools and technologies we use and it enables us to connect and integrate our past and current experiences. While the first edition of the book was aimed primarily at educators working in higher education, this shortened version has in mind the people who support learning and development in organisations that are not primarily educational.
Detection and Diagnostics of Plant Pathogens
This book is part of the Plant Pathology in the 21st Century Series, started in the occasion of the IX International Congress of Plant Pathology, Torino, 2008. In conjuction with the Xth International Congress of Plant Pathology, held in Beijing in August 2013. Although deriving from a Congress, the book will not have the format of traditional Proceedings, but will be organized as a resource book. It will be based on invited lectures presented at the Congress as well as by other chapters selected by the editors among offered papers. This book will cover a topic very important in the field of plant pathology, dealing with detection and diagnostics. This field of research is continuously moving forwards, due to innovation in techniques. The application of new detection and diagnostic technologies are relevant to many applied fields in agriculture. The different chapters will provide a very complete figure of the topic, from general and basic aspects to practical aspects.
