Book Description
After forty years, Hammett has a worthy successor' The Times Dave Brandstetter stands alongside Philip Marlowe, Sam Spade and Lew Archer as one of the best fictional PIs in the business. Like them, he was tough, determined, and ruthless when the case demanded it. Unlike them, he was gay. Joseph Hansen's groundbreaking novels follow Brandstetter as he investigates cases in which motives are murky, passions run high, and nothing is ever as simple as it looks. Set in 1970s and 80s California, the series is a fascinating portrait of a time and a place, with mysteries to match Chandler and Macdonald. In Fadeout, Dave is sent to investigate the death of radio personality Fox Olsen. His car is found crashed in a dry river bed. But there is no body - and as Dave looks deeper into his life, it seems as though he had good reasons to disappear.

'Tense ... fascinating' Sunday Times When an object of undeniably extra-terrestrial origin appears, the world is thrown into panic. Is this alien race harmless or a danger to humanity? Nine weeks later, civilization is on the edge of a total breakdown more devastating than any nuclear war or natural disaster. Patrick Tilley, author of bestselling science fiction series The Amtrak Wars, creates in Fade-Out a chilling thriller of humanity's first contact with advanced alien intelligence; a high tension tour-de-force that will stay with you long after you have turned the last page.

Statistical Analysis of Shortwave Fadeout Occurrence for the Years 1955 to 1969
Author: Richard G. HendlPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Correlation (Statistics)
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
Shortwave fadeout data for the period 1955 through 1969 were analyzed and correlated with solar flare data for the same period. Details of the analysis are presented along with various statistical presentations of the data. The validity of computerized objective procedures for matching geophysical data is shown. Some doubt is cast on the quality of the shortwave fadeout data during the early part of the period considered. (Author).

Book Description
In Western culture, the psychoanalysis that has guided popular psychology for almost a century is now on the retreat. Better equipped with proven results, cognitive and evolutionary psychology has driven psychoanalysis out of the spotlight. In cultural and film studies, however, the debate between cognitive sciences and psychoanalysis remains contentious. This volume explores this state of things by examining criticism of 18 films, juxtaposing them with cognitive-based films to reveal the flaws in the psychoanalytical concepts. It pays particular attention to simulation theory, the concept that narratives "learned" from films could work in human minds as simulations for solutions to particular problems. By introducing the idea of narrative stimulation to film studies, this work argues for a different method of film critique, encouraging further research into this nascent field.

Correlations of Solar and Geophysical Parameters-shortwave Fadeouts and Solar Optical Features

Category : Correlation (Statistics)

Pages : 20
Book Description
Shortwave fadeout durations are compared with associated solar flare characteristics and other features of the solar regions in which the flares occur. Statistical tests show that flare parameters, especially flare importance, have the highest correlations with shortwave fadeout duration. Most other active region features, such as plage area, also show some correlation, but to varying lesser degrees. Cross tabulations of the shortwave fadeout durations and optical features are presented and discussed relative to their use as operational space forecasting aids. (Author).
