Kontemplasi
Kita sebagai manusia, hanya beranjak dewasa atas nama cinta yang seakan bahagia, tanpa ada yang memberitahu soal kecewa yang datang beriringan. Seringkali kita dikejutkan dengan hal-hal yang berjudul anugerah Tuhan. Manusia yang datang dan pergi. Mimpi yang wujud dan waham. Buku ini menyatukan berbagai aspirasi kita menjadikan sebuah larik puisi yang indah, rangkaian puisi ini menjadi sebuah jejak kita beranjak tahun ke tahun. Kita sekarang mampu beranjak lebih karena adanya perasaan yang mengelilingi batin kita. Disini, kami, 30 manusia banyaknya, pandangan berbeda, yang bahkan tak seiras narasinya, akan berkisah. Tentang takut yang menyelimuti. Tentang tangan dari para sobat yang menggenggam. Hingga amarah yang tak dapat lagi terbungkam. Kecewa yang datang tanpa mengucap salam, dan tentu dengan akhir bahagia, tuntas semua rasa ketika menemukan seseorang yang merayakan semua hal-hal sepele kita. Buku ini memberikan kesempatan kepada siapapun jiwa yang menafsirkannya, untuk menyaksikan bagaimana kami mengolah rasa menjadi sajak-sajak indah.

Sustainable Development Of Energy, Water And Environment Systems - Proceedings Of The 3rd Dubrovnik Conference
Sustainability is a new, important discourse aimed at promoting a new strategy in the development of energy, water and environmental (EWE) systems — the key components that affect the quality of life on our planet. It is becoming increasingly clear that the quest for sustainable development requires integrating economic, social, cultural, political and ecological factors. The behavior and properties of an EWE system arise not merely from the properties of its component elements, but also to a large degree also from the nature and intensity of their dynamic interlinkages. This volume helps clarify the complexity of these problems by providing a deeper understanding of the implications of the different aspects of sustainability.This work contains a collection of selected, peer-reviewed and state-of-the-art reflecting papers that were presented at the Third Dubrovnik Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems that was held in June 5-10, 2005 in Dubrovnik, Croatia.
The Culture of Disaster
From antiquity through the Enlightenment, disasters were attributed to the obscure power of the stars or the vengeance of angry gods. As philosophers sought to reassess the origins of natural disasters, they also made it clear that humans shared responsibility for the damages caused by a violent universe. This far-ranging book explores the way writers, thinkers, and artists have responded to the increasingly political concept of disaster from the Enlightenment until today. Marie-Hélène Huet argues that post-Enlightenment culture has been haunted by the sense of emergency that made natural catastrophes and human deeds both a collective crisis and a personal tragedy. From the plague of 1720 to the cholera of 1832, from shipwrecks to film dystopias, disasters raise questions about identity and memory, technology, control, and liability. In her analysis, Huet considers anew the mythical figures of Medusa and Apollo, theories of epidemics, earthquakes, political crises, and films such as Blow-Up and Blade Runner. With its scope and precision, The Culture of Disaster will appeal to a wide public interested in modern culture, philosophy, and intellectual history.

Renewable Energy Systems
In this new edition of Renewable Energy Systems, globally recognized renewable energy researcher and professor, Henrik Lund, sets forth a straightforward, comprehensive methodology for comparing different energy systems' abilities to integrate fluctuating and intermittent renewable energy sources. The book does this by presenting an energy system analysis methodology. The book provides the results of more than fifteen comprehensive energy system analysis studies, examines the large-scale integration of renewable energy into the present system, and presents concrete design examples derived from a dozen renewable energy systems around the globe. Renewable Energy Systems, Second Edition also un...
Islamic Education in Indonesia and Malaysia
Despite their close geographic and cultural ties, Indonesia and Malaysia have dramatically different Islamic education, with that in Indonesia being relatively decentralized and discursively diverse, while that in Malaysia is centralized and discursively restricted. The book explores the nature of the Islamic education systems in Indonesia and Malaysia and the different approaches taken by these states in managing these systems. The book argues that the post-colonial state in Malaysia has been more successful in centralising its control over Islamic education, and more concerned with promoting a restrictive orthodoxy, compared to the post-colonial state in Indonesia. This is due to three fac...
Ecocity Berkeley
