This edited collection highlights ways that arts-educators address learning with the land through walking practices across spatial, temporal, and cultural differences. In Walking in Art Education, authors explore walking and a/r/tography in their local contexts. As a result, the book finds that kinship and relationality are significant themes that permeate across a/r/tographic practices focused on ecopedagogy and learning with the land. These walking practices serve as ecopedagogical moments that attune us to human-land and more-than-human relationships, while also moving us past Western-centric understandings of land and place. More than this, the book situates this work in a/r/tographic practices taking up walking as one method for engagement.
This monograph introduces two approaches to studying Siegel modular forms: the classical approach as holomorphic functions on the Siegel upper half space, and the approach via representation theory on the symplectic group. By illustrating the interconnections shared by the two, this book fills an important gap in the existing literature on modular forms. It begins by establishing the basics of the classical theory of Siegel modular forms, and then details more advanced topics. After this, much of the basic local representation theory is presented. Exercises are featured heavily throughout the volume, the solutions of which are helpfully provided in an appendix. Other topics considered include Hecke theory, Fourier coefficients, cuspidal automorphic representations, Bessel models, and integral representation. Graduate students and young researchers will find this volume particularly useful. It will also appeal to researchers in the area as a reference volume. Some knowledge of GL(2) theory is recommended, but there are a number of appendices included if the reader is not already familiar.
This book is a collection of original papers on microlocal analysis, Fourier analysis in the complex domain, generalized functions and related topics. Most of the papers originate from the talks given at the conference OC Prospects of Generalized FunctionsOCO (in November, 2001 at RIMS, Kyoto). Reflecting the fact that the papers, except M Morimoto''s one, are dedicated to Mitsuo Morimoto, the subjects considered in this book are interdisciplinary, just as Morimoto''s works are. The historical backgrounds of the subjects are also discussed in depth in some contributions. Thus, this book should be valuable not only to the specialists in the fields, but also to those who are interested in the history of modern mathematics such as distributions and hyperfunctions."
The focus of this edited book is to evoke and provoke conceptual conversations between early a/r/tographic publications and the contemporary scholarship of a/r/tographers publishing and producing today. Working around four pervasive themes found in a/r/tographic literature, this volume addresses relationality and renderings, ethics and embodiment, movement and materiality, and propositions and potentials. In doing so, it advances concepts that have permeated a/r/tographic literature to date. More specifically, the volume simultaneously offers a site where key historical works can easily be found and at the same time, offer new scholarship that is in conversation with these historical ideas a...
Prosthodontics is the subspecialty of dentistry that deals with the aesthetic restoration and replacement of teeth. The second edition of this textbook has been fully revised and updated to provide undergraduates with the latest advances in the field of prosthodontics. Divided into six sections, each part provides in depth detail on a specific type of prosthesis – complete dentures, removable partial dentures, fixed partial dentures, maxillofacial prosthesis, implants, and dental materials. The section on implants has been completely reorganised with the addition of new chapters, and the section on dental materials is brand new to this edition. The book includes discussion on anatomical land marks and lab procedures, as well as evidence based clinical practice and operating techniques. More than 3000 clinical photographs, diagrams, concept maps and charts enhance learning and enable quick revision. Key points Fully revised, second edition providing latest advances in prosthodontics Features brand new section on dental materials Highly illustrated with more than 3000 clinical photographs, diagrams and charts Previous edition (9788180611995) published in 2006
