The Groaning Shelf
Author: Pradeep SebastianPublisher: Hachette India
ISBN: 9350093634
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Notes from a bibliophile on the lure of rare and first editions, the beauty of dust jackets, the thrill of browsing in antiquarian bookshops, the bibliomania of book thieves, movies about books, and the inner life of a reader. The Groaning Shelf is not so much a book about books as a book about books about books. These little essays capture the drama of bookish obsession, the joys and snares of the bookish life and the pleasures of bibliophily.

Author: The Book on the Bookshelf
Author: Henry PetroskiPublisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307773280
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
From the author of the highly praised The Pencil and The Evolution of Useful Things comes another captivating history of the seemingly mundane: the book and its storage. Most of us take for granted that our books are vertical on our shelves with the spines facing out, but Henry Petroski, inveterately curious engineer, didn't. As a result, readers are guided along the astonishing evolution from papyrus scrolls boxed at Alexandria to upright books shelved at the Library of Congress. Unimpeachably researched, enviably written, and charmed with anecdotes from Seneca to Samuel Pepys to a nineteenth-century bibliophile who had to climb over his books to get into bed, The Book on the Bookshelf is indispensable for anyone who loves books.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
This book explores the first image you create before you take the book off the shelf. It is how long you think the book has been on the shelf and what mirror cells want to know in order to determine if the book is as clean and dry as the ones next to it. This is so you can begin to imagine how the pages look when the book is open and how the hand will look when you turn the pages. Then you will be able to use this image as often as you want to read the pages.
UG and External Systems
Author: Anna Maria Di SciulloPublisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027294526
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
This book explores the interaction of the grammar with the external systems, conceptual-intentional and sensori-motor. The papers in the Language section include configurational analyses of the interface properties of depictives, clitic clusters, imperatives, conditionals, clefts, as well as asymmetries in the structure of syllables and feet. The Brain section discusses questions related to human learning and comprehension of language: the acquisition of compounds, the acquisition of the definite article, the subject/object asymmetry in the comprehension of D-Linked vs. non D-linked questions, the evidence for syntactic asymmetries in American Sign Language, the acquisition of syllable types, and the role of stress shift in the determination of phrase ending. The papers in the Computation section present different perspectives on how the properties of UG can be implemented in a parser; implementations of different theories including configurational selection, incorporation, and minimalism; and the role of statistical and quantitative approaches in natural language processing.
