        Italian graphic design

        Culture and practice in Milan, 1930s-60s

        by Chiara Barbieri

        Italian graphic design offers a new perspective on the subject by exploring the emergence and articulation of graphic design practice, from the interwar period through to the appearance of an international graphic design discourse in the 1960s. The book asks how graphic designers learned their trade and investigates the ways in which they organised and made their practice visible while negotiating their collective identity with neighbouring practices such as typography, advertising and industrial design. Attention is drawn to everyday design practice, educational issues, mediating channels, networks, design exchange, organisational strategies and discourses on modernism. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources and placing an emphasis on visual analysis, this book provides a model for a contextualised graphic design history as an integral part of the history of design and visual culture.

        Medien – Computer – Realität

        Wirklichkeitsvorstellungen und Neue Medien

        by Sybille Krämer

        "Dieser Band fragt nach den Voraussetzungen und Folgen der medialen Nutzung des Computers - und zwar nicht in einer technikwissenschaftlichen Perspektive; den Autoren geht es vielmehr um geistes- bzw. kulturwissenschaftlich inspirierte Interpretationen der neuen Medien. Die Beiträge zentrieren sich um drei miteinander verwandte Themen: (1) In einer grundlagentheoretischen Perspektive wird die Frage gestellt: »Was ist ein Medium?« (2) Dann wird der Computer als ein Medium thematisiert. (3) Schließlich geht es um Veränderungen unseres Wirklichkeitsverständnisses im Gefolge von Phänomenen, die mit dem Einsatz digitalisierter Medien verbunden sind."

        Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement

        by Emlyn Williams, Chris Harwood, Colin Matheson

        This third edition of Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement provides a set of practical procedures to follow when planning, designing and analysing tree improvement trials. Using many fully worked examples, it outlines how to: design field, glasshouse and laboratory trials; efficiently collect and construct electronic data files; pre-process data, screening for data quality and outliers; analyse data from single and across-site trials; and interpret the results from statistical analyses. The authors address the many practical issues often faced in forest tree improvement trials and describe techniques that will efficiently give conclusive results. The techniques provided are applicable to the improvement of not only trees, but to crops in general. Building on the success of the second edition, this new edition has been fully revised to include the construction of p-rep and spatial designs using the commercially available software package for design generation (CycDesigN). For analysis of the examples, it provides online Genstat and SAS programs and a link to R programs.

        Allwissen und Absturz. Der Ursprung des Computers

        by Werner Künzel, Peter Bexte

        "Das vorliegende Buch handelt von der Geschichte der logischen Kombinatorik aus der Sicht der aktuellen Computertheorie. Dabei werden die entscheidenden Metamorphosen dieser Maschine erfaßt; die Beschränkungen der vereinzelten Wissenschaften werden aufgehoben zugunsten neuer Perspektiven. Denn am Ursprung der Denkmaschine überkreuzen sich verschiedene Diskurse. Die Spur der Ars Combinatoria führt aus der Kosmologie in eine Welt technischer Phänomene, alles treibt zur Maschine hin. Aus der Tradition kabbalistischer Kombinationslogik werden jene Schaltpläne geboren, die die universelle Maschine steuern. Athanasius Kirchers Schriften aus dem 17. Jahrhundert sind deren früheste Manuale..."

        Development, architecture, and the formation of heritage in late twentieth-century Iran

        A vital past

        by Ali Mozaffari, Nigel Westbrook

        This book analyses the use of the past and the production of heritage through architectural design in the developmental context of Iran, a country that has endured radical cultural and political shifts in the past five decades. Offering a trans-disciplinary approach toward complex relationship between architecture, development, and heritage, Mozaffari and Westbrook suggest that transformations in developmental contexts like Iran must be seen in relation to global political and historical exchanges, as well as the specificities of localities. The premise of the book is that development has been a globalizing project that originated in the West. Transposed into other contexts, this project instigates a renewed historical consciousness and imagination of the past. The authors explore the rise of this consciousness in architecture, examining the theoretical context to the debates, international exchanges made in architectural congresses in the 1970s, the use of housing as the vehicle for everyday heritage, and forms of symbolic public architecture that reflect monumental time.

        From Dream to Trauma: Mental abuse in partnerships

        by Caroline Wenzel

        The level of domestic abuse has been increasing for years, but often only cases of physical abuse hit the headlines. Hardly anyone talks about the mental, or psychological, abuse that usually precedes a physical or sexual assault. Those affected do not usually recognise the destructive dynamic in their relationship until far too late. In this book, three case histories illustrate the typical forms of mental abuse in relationships. In addition, experts explain the topic from psychological, therapeutic, political and legal perspectives, and the head of a counselling centre for male victims of mental abuse also has his say. An important and startling book.
