Warsaw: Centrum Architektury, 2012 8vo (22.5 cm), 320 pp. Publisher's boards. In Polish. AR / PS: The architecture of Arsenius Romanowicz and Piotr Szymaniak. Edited by Grzegorz Piątek. Arseniusz Romanowicz (AR, 1910- 2008) and Piotr Szymaniak (PS, 1911-1967) designed some of the most interesting buildings in post-war Warsaw: Central Station, Eastern Railway Station, Ochota, Powiśle and Stadion stations. However they did not care about publicity and remained in the shade for most of their lives. The buildings themselves quickly deteriorated and until recent restorations and upgrades it was difficult to appreciate them. AR/PS is a collection of essays by Polish and foreign authors discussing the career of Romanowicz and Szymaniak from the 1930s to the 1990s, and nearly 200 old and new photographs, including unpublished materials from family archives. The book also included unpublished text by Arseniy Romanovich from the mid-1980s and interviews with architects who worked on upgrading… Read More

The Dewey Decimal Classification is a proprietary library classification system which allows new books to be added to a library in their appropriate location based on subject. It was first published in the United States by Melvil Dewey in 1876. The purpose of this abridgment has been to provide a short form of the Classification adapted to the needs of small and slowly growing libraries.

PHI Learning, 2015 8vo (23.5 cm), XII, 396 pp. Laminated wrappers. "Appropriate for undergraduate courses, this third edition has new chapters on Galois Theory and Module Theory, new solved problems and additional exercises in the chapters on group theory, boolean algebra and matrix theory. The text offers a systematic, well-planned, and elegant treatment of the main themes in abstract algebra. It begins with the fundamentals of set theory, basic algebraic structures such as groups and rings, and special classes of rings and domains, and then progresses to extension theory, vector space theory and finally the matrix theory. The boolean algebra by virtue of its relation to abstract algebra also finds a proper place in the development of the text. The students develop an understanding of all the essential results such as the Cayley’s theorem, the Lagrange’s theorem, and the Isomorphism theorem, in a rigorous and precise manner. Sufficient numbers of examples have been worked out in each… Read More

Begell, 2018 4to (26 cm), X, 439 pp. Publisher's laminated boards. "The results presented in this book could be of interest to readers from two aspects. Firstly, the possibility of significant expansion of the number of problems allowing the construction of full analytical representations for sound fields in the areas of complex shape was shown. The concept of the general solution of the boundary problem was formulated and its efficiency in solving different tasks was demonstrated. The second distinctive feature of the book is that considerable attention is paid to the analysis of the physical features of sound fields and their relation to the geometrical and physical aspects of acoustic radiators and acoustic caterers. Harmonic sound fields are considered in most cases. However, the possibility to find a solution to nonstationary problems was shown in several problems." (publisher's synopsis)

St Pauls Bibliographies, 2000 8vo (24 cm), 160 pp. Publisher's laminated boards. This series of nine scholarly essays focuses on the book as it helped facilitate commerce and culture over the last five centuries. Leading scholars explore difficult questions arising from the unique relationships that have existed for centuries between economics and literary culture. This work opens with an insight into the kinds of transformation that text ungoes as it crosses and recrosses onto logical boundaries. Several other essays explore the deep and mutually implicating relationship that has existed between economics and the literary culture.

Kraków: Instytut Architektury, 2013 8vo (22 cm), 160 pp, Laminated wrappers. In Polish. The work of Szyszko-Bohusz (1883 - 1948) perfectly illustrates the mental, cultural, artistic and political context in which modern architecture was born in Poland. He is one of the most important Polish architects of the first half of the twentieth century, who to a large extent shaped the space of modern Krakow, being at the same time one of the founders of the national myth of the revived Second Polish Republic. He was an extremely influential man, holding many important positions and realizing the most prestigious architectural projects of his time. The architect's work, built between tradition and the search for a new form in architecture, goes deeply to the essence of the processes taking place in the architecture of the early twentieth century.

Society for Industrial & Applied Mathematics, 2019 4to (25.5 cm), 279 pp. Laminated wrappers. "A compendium of the authors' recently published results, this book discusses sliding mode control of uncertain nonlinear systems, with a particular emphasis on advanced and optimization based algorithms. The authors survey classical sliding mode control theory and introduce four new methods of advanced sliding mode control. They analyze classical theory and advanced algorithms, with numerical results complementing the theoretical treatment. Case studies examine applications of the algorithms to complex robotics and power grid problems. Advanced and Optimization Based Sliding Mode Control: Theory and Applications is the first book to systematize the theory of optimization based higher order sliding mode control and illustrate advanced algorithms and their applications to real problems. It presents systematic treatment of event-triggered and model based event-triggered sliding mode control… Read More
