Interpreting Site
Author: Genevieve Baudoin
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317695623
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
Interpreting Site explains the basic methods architects use to translate what you perceive to represent the complex conditions that physically and mentally "construe" a site, helping to shape the ultimate design. Within each of the four themes---defining site, experiencing site, spatializing site, and systematizing site--- theoretical, conceptual, and analytic methods and representational tools are introduced to give you a foundation to develop your own approach to the conditions of a site. Author Genevieve S. Baudoin examines longstanding representation methods in relation to emerging and experimental methods, offering an idiosyncratic and provocative look at different approaches. Four highly illustrated full colour case studies of key contemporary projects in Spain, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway demonstrate how architects have used conditions discovered on a site in their final design.

Gold Coins of the World - 9th edition
Author: Arthur L. Friedberg
Publisher: Coin & Currency Institute
ISBN: 087184009X
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 835
Book Description
A unique and indispensable reference work Unsurpassed in content and scope When the first edition of Gold Coins of the World made its debut in 1958, it forever changed the way gold coins were collected, cataloged, traded, and priced. For the first time, one book provided a reliable guide for a subject which previously required an often expensive investment in multiple volumes of literature, some of it rare and antique, and much of it badly out-of-date. With the publication of this pioneering work, Robert Friedberg (1912-1963) established himself as an international icon in the field of numismatic literature. This book, and the 'Friedberg Numbering System' he developed became then, and is still today, the internationally-recognized standard for systematically identifying any gold coin ever made. From just 384 pages in 1958, Gold Coins of the World has expanded to the extent that it now contains more than triple the information of its ancestor. It still stands alone as the first and only book to describe, catalog and price two millennia of gold, platinum, and palladium coin issues from across the globe. From the first coins of the ancient Greeks to the most recently-issued modern commemoratives, they are all here, an astonishing compilation of more than 21,000 individual coin listings accompanied by over 8,000 actual-size photographs. The prices have been completely updated, for the most part raised substantially, to reflect the current market. Entire sections have been expanded, many illustrations have been added or improved, and hundreds of new discoveries and recent issues have been included for the first time. Arthur Friedberg, president of the International Association of Professional Numismatists from 2001 to 2007 and now its Honorary President, and Ira Friedberg, have completely revised and expanded their late father's work. They have had the valuable assistance and cooperation of a who's who of the leading numismatists on every continent in bringing this edition to fruition. For the numismatist, banker, economist, historian, institution of higher learning, or a fancier of the noble metal in all its forms, Gold Coins of the World is a book for every library, public and private.

Multirate Systems: Design and Applications
Author: Jovanovic-Dolecek, Gordana
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 1591400198
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Digital signal processing is an area of science and engineering that has been developed rapidly over the past years. This rapid development is the result of the significant advances in digital computer technology and integrated circuits fabrication. Many of the signal processing tasks conventionally performed by analog means are realized today by less expensive and often more reliable digital hardware. Multirate Systems: Design and Applications addresses the rapid development of multirate digital signal processing and how it is complemented by the emergence of new applications.
