E-book Machine

n the Aristotelian view of the generic, species is defined as a distinct, classificatory term, while generic form is distinguished as a “preliminary step” to a “specific form.” This includes, for instance, the “perceptive faculty” as a “generic form” of human beings. It makes us into the tasting, smelling, hearing, seeing, and feeling be-ings that are generated in these percepti…

Others range over many volumes, challenging the strength of your grip with the combined weight of their leather covers, rag paper pages and glassine illustration protectors. Some hold us enthralled with split-second events in tiny places, othe…

E-book Physical Geodesy

In this chapter we present the foundations of Newton’s theory of gravitation. Intuitively, the theory of gravitation is easiest to understand as “action at a distance,” Latin actio ad distans, where the force between two masses is proportional to the masses themselves, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This is the form of Newton’s general law of grav…

E-book Geodesy : The Science Underneath

In traditional societies, undoubtedly the most common conception of the figure of the Earth was that the Earth is a flat disc extending to the horizon, with the sky curving like a dome over her. On the inner surface of the dome, the celestial bodies describe their complicated orbits. Children also have generally the same conception. Only with formal education does this “naïve world model” …

Th e distribution of wealth is one of today’s most widely discussed and controversial issues. But what do we really know about its evolution over the long term? Do the dynamics of private capital accumulation inevitably lead to the concentration of wealth in ever fewer hands, as Karl Marx believed in the nineteenth century? Or do the balancing forces of growth, competition, and technological …
