Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Since the first implementation by Electricité de France on the Goulours dam (France) in 2006 the Piano Key Weir has become a more and more applied solution to increase the discharge capacity of existing spillways. In parallel several new large dam projects have been built with such a flood control structure usually in combination with gates. Today more than 25 Piano Key Weirs are in operation or under construction all over the world. More than 15 years of research and development have enabled detailed investigations of the hydraulic and structural behaviour of the Piano Key Weir complex structure and have provided more and more accurate design equations. Following the proceedings of the first two workshops held in Liege (Belgium – 2011) and Paris (France – 2013) Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III collects the contributions presented by people with varied background from researchers to practitioners at the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs - PKW 2017 (22-24 February 2017 Qui Nhon Vietnam). The papers reviewed and accepted by an International Scientific Committee summarize the current state-of-the-art on Piano Key Weirs from a theoretical to a practical point of view and present most of the main projects in operation or under construction. Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III is thus a reference for students practitioners and researchers interested in Dams Engineering. | Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs III Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Labyrinth and Piano Key Weirs (PKW 2017) February 22-24

Ecological Epistemologies and Spiritualities in Brazilian Ecovillages In the Labyrinth of an Environmental Anthropology

Ecological Epistemologies and Spiritualities in Brazilian Ecovillages In the Labyrinth of an Environmental Anthropology

This book brings together ethnographic field research on four permacultural ecovillages in Brazil to highlight the importance of spirituality and ecological epistemologies as key analytical tools. It demonstrates that ecological spirituality can and should be understood beyond the dichotomy of personal and political between people and nature in the field of environmental anthropology. The book uses a broad philosophical methodology based on the phenomenological theories of Maurice Merleau-Ponty Tim Ingold and Alfred Schutz combined with post-structuralist conceptions of the relationship between person and world individual and society. The field research consisted of ethnographic travel observation and recorded dialogue with individuals based in each ecovillage: Arca Verde situated in Campos de Cima da Serra; Vrinda Bhumi a Vaishnava ecovillage in Baependi-MG; Goura Vrindavana a Vaishnava ecovillage in Paraty-RJ; and Muriqui Assu Ecovillage Project a secular ecovillage in Niterói-RJ. Throughout the book ethnographic research is woven together with poetic interludes images personal narrative experience and phenomenological theory bringing a new understanding and approach to environmental anthropology as a discipline. Including a Preface written by Tim Ingold it will appeal to academics researchers and upper-level students in phenomenology environmental philosophy environmental anthropology religious studies and social sciences more broadly. | Ecological Epistemologies and Spiritualities in Brazilian Ecovillages In the Labyrinth of an Environmental Anthropology

Cyanotype Toning Using Botanicals to Tone Blueprints Naturally

Cyanotype Toning Using Botanicals to Tone Blueprints Naturally

Cyanotype is the most accessible and frequently used of all the alternative photographic processes. When utilized properly it has the potential to rival other processes when it comes to detail and tonal range but its Prussian blue color isn’t always suitable for the final photograph. Throughout history cyanotype prints have been toned not only with various—and at times hazardous—chemicals but also with more natural ingredients like tea and coffee. Since the cyanotype itself is non-toxic Cyanotype Toning will champion an innovative process developed by the author of toning cyanotypes with natural material. This process which is easy and reliable offers a much broader range of possible colors and even beautiful black and whites. Even duotone or tricolor prints can be attained. The book consists of two parts. Part One is a step-by-step how-to section including all the information that a student at any level needs to achieve a successfully toned print. Easy-to-understand background information is provided on how and why the process works so that readers can venture on their own into the world of natural colors. The first part also has a detailed section on all the factors that can influence the outcome like paper choice water quality properties of the plants temperature of the bath and the duration of the toning. Part Two is devoted to contemporary artists who have explored toning with botanicals and integrated the process into their creative practice. The book includes: A list of equipment and supplies needed. In depth information about useful plants and the specific properties that make them suitable for toning cyanotypes. Concise step-by-step instructions for printing cyanotypes successfully. A chart of more than 60 tested papers with recommendations on paper choice. Step-by-step generic instructions on toning with botanicals. Troubleshooting toning with botanicals. More detailed recipes for specific colors with information about the plants. Step-by-step instructions on how to print duotone and tricolor prints. A range of creative ideas on how to use the process in classrooms and with different age groups. A comprehensive list of more than 380 tested parts of plants and possible color outcomes. Using botanicals to tone cyanotypes broadens the color spectrum enlarges creative possibilities and makes the cyanotype process even more versatile. The process is not cut and dried science but a limitless field for discovery and surprises. Cyanotype Toning provides accessible information and instructions for readers at all levels. It is comprehensive and explanatory so that readers can expand on the subject on their own as did the contemporary artists who share their experiences and the works they have created using this innovative toning process. | Cyanotype Toning Using Botanicals to Tone Blueprints Naturally

Strongly Correlated Electrons in Two Dimensions

Strongly Correlated Electrons in Two Dimensions

The properties of strongly correlated electrons confined in two dimensions are a forefront area of modern condensed matter physics. In the past two or three decades strongly correlated electron systems have garnered a great deal of scientific interest due to their unique and often unpredictable behavior. Two of many examples are the metallic state and the metal–insulator transition discovered in 2D semiconductors: phenomena that cannot occur in noninteracting systems. Tremendous efforts have been made in both theory and experiment to create an adequate understanding of the situation; however a consensus has still not been reached. Strongly Correlated Electrons in Two Dimensions compiles and details cutting-edge research in experimental and theoretical physics of strongly correlated electron systems by leading scientists in the field. The book covers recent theoretical work exploring the quantum criticality of Mott and Wigner–Mott transitions experiments on the metal–insulator transition and related phenomena in clean and dilute systems the effect of spin and isospin degrees of freedom on low-temperature transport in two dimensions electron transport near the 2D Mott transition experimentally observed temperature and magnetic field dependencies of resistivity in silicon-based systems with different levels of disorder and microscopic theory of the interacting electrons in two dimensions. Edited by Sergey Kravchenko a prominent experimentalist this book will appeal to advanced graduate-level students and researchers specializing in condensed matter physics nanophysics and low-temperature physics especially those involved in the science of strong correlations 2D semiconductors and conductor–insulator transitions.

Two Cases from Jung’s Clinical Practice The Story of Two Sisters and the Evolution of Jungian Analysis

Two Cases from Jung’s Clinical Practice The Story of Two Sisters and the Evolution of Jungian Analysis

Two Cases from Jung’s Clinical Practice places two key cases those of Mischa Epper and Maggy Reichstein into the context of Jung’s work in the 1920s and provides a complete assessment of their place within his writings. Presented in three parts it first examines Jung’s disappointment with contemporary treatments and theories and his break from Freud and the development of his own ideas and then summarises the history of his more famous patients. In Part 2 de Moura examines Epper’s case which is recognised as an essential part of the development of the concept of active imagination as well as how it is connected to the work of Jung’s collaborator Maria Moltzer. Finally Part 3 assesses the case of Reichstein which emerges as a key contribution to Jung’s writings on Eastern and Western psychology transference and countertransference mandalas and in particular synchronicity. Two Cases from Jung’s Clinical Practice provides a comprehensive and personable picture of Jung and his interactions with these two patients giving us valuable data about a time when his practice was still evolving. A unique and insightful study this book will be an essential work for academics and students of Jungian and post-Jungian theory analytical psychology and the history of psychoanalysis and psychology. These cases will also be of great interest to analytical psychologists and Jungian analysts in practice and in training. | Two Cases from Jung’s Clinical Practice The Story of Two Sisters and the Evolution of Jungian Analysis

The Roots of Jewish Consciousness Volume Two Hasidism

The Roots of Jewish Consciousness Volume Two Hasidism

The Roots of Jewish Consciousness Volume Two: Hasidism is the second volume fullyannotated of a major previously unpublished two-part work by Erich Neumann (1905–1960). It was written between 1940 and 1945 after Neumann then a young philosopher and physician and freshly trained as a disciple of Jung fled Berlin to settle in Tel Aviv. He finished this work at the end of World War II. Although he never published it he kept it the rest of his life. Volume Two Hasidism is devoted to the psychological and spiritual wisdom embodied in Jewish spiritual tradition. Relying on Jung’s concepts and Buber’s Hasidic interpretations Neumann seeks alternatives to the legalism and anti-feminine bias that he says have dominated collective Judaism since the Second Temple. He argues that modern Jews can develop psychological wholeness through an appropriation of Hasidic legends Talmudic texts and Kabbalistic mysteries including especially the Zohar. Exclusively this volume includes a foreword by Moshe Idel. An appendix Neumann’s four-lecture series from the 1940s gives a glimpse of his intended unpublished Part Three. These volumes anticipate Neumann’s later works including Depth Psychology and a New Ethic The Origins and History of Consciousness and The Great Mother. In Volume Two Hasidism his concept of the ego–Self axis is developed in clearly psychological terms. Four previously unpublished essays appended to Volume Two illustrate Neumann’s developmental psychology including his theme of primary and secondary personalization. This unique work will appeal to Jungian analysts and psychotherapists in training and in practice historians of psychology Jewish scholars biblical historians teachers of comparative religion as well as academics and students. | The Roots of Jewish Consciousness Volume Two Hasidism

Track Two Diplomacy Between India and Pakistan Peace Negotiations and Initiatives

Track Two Diplomacy between India and Pakistan studies the nature and context of providing an alternative platform for conflict resolution between the two countries. Considered one of the most intractable conflicts in the world the India-Pakistan conflict has been defined by casualties religious extremism and the looming threat of war. With the conflict playing out against the backdrop of many nationalisms official Track One diplomacy remains insufficient. The author analyses the role of Track Two diplomacy when official diplomacy remains confined and sensitive to their respective official positions as well as the contribution of maintaining various communication lines intact when official channels are suspended and inaccessible. In this context this book explores citizen-led diplomatic efforts probing the economic and ideological forms of power that influence this mode of diplomacy outside governmental channels. The book is a general evaluation of the Track Two process in terms of its achievements challenges and failures vis-à-vis India and Pakistan. An original contribution towards the development of a conceptual understanding of Track Two diplomacy this book will be of interest to researchers studying International Relations Foreign Politics South Asian Politics with particular emphasis on India - Pakistan relations. | Track Two Diplomacy Between India and Pakistan Peace Negotiations and Initiatives
