Prefab Prototypes: Site-Specific Design for Offsite Construction

2007 y.
Publisher: Birlhauser
Description: Prefabricated construction is a hot topic in architecture these days, and for good reason. Prospective homebuilders around the world are gravitating to prefab as an environ-mentally responsible and cost-effective way to achieve that holiest of grails: an affordable, well-designed house. If you`re hoping to jump onto this bandwagon or are just interested in what prefab building really entails, `Prefab Prototypes` is required reading. While other prefab books on the market show what can be done, dangling pretty pictures of affordable homes before your starry eyes, `Prefab Prototypes` takes you to the next step - it shows you how. Architects Mark Anderson and Peter Anderson have been working with prefab buildings for more than fifteen years. With `Prefab Prototypes`, they break prefab down into six systems, from most flexible to most complicated - panelized wood framing, sandwich paneling, steel framing, timber framing, concrete systems, and modular systems. Each chapter delves into the… [detailed...]

Prefabulous: The House of Your Dreams Delivered Fresh from the Factory

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is the only book that gives homeowners who are dreaming about building or planning to build a new home the good and the bad on all types of prefabricated houses. Shows that prefabricated can be mainstream traditional design and does not have to look like a mobile home or a modular `Dwell` box. Prefabulous describes the many systems available for prefabricating all or parts of a new home, including timber frame and log, as well as modular, panelized, structural insulated panels, steel framing and concrete systems, which are relatively new. Prefabulous describes these systems, compares their advantages and disadvantages, and shows beautiful examples of houses built using these techniques. Although all of these `prefabricated` houses look very different, all of them were manufactured partially or almost completely in a controlled factory environment and transported to the home site to be erected. As a group these systems offer a faster, more energy-efficient, and sometimes… [detailed...]

Eric Havelock
Preface to Plato

2006 y.
Publisher: Belknap Press
Description: Plato`s frontal attack on poetry has always been a problem for sympathetic students, who have often minimized or avoided it. Beginning with the premise that the attack must be taken seriously, Mr. Havelock shows that Plato`s hostility is explained by thecontinued domination of the poetic tradition in contemporary Greek thought. The reason for the dominance of this tradition was technological. In a nonliterate culture, stored experience necessary to cultural stability had to be preserved as poetryin order to be memorized. Plato attacks poets, particularly Homer, as the sole source of Greek moral and technical instruction--Mr. Havelock shows how the Illiad acted as an oral encyclopedia. Under the label of mimesis, Plato condemns the poetic processof emotional identification and the necessity of presenting content as a series of specific images in a continued narrative. The second part of the book discusses the Platonic Forms as an aspect of an increasingly rational… [detailed...]

Preface to Social Economics: Economic Theory and Social Problems

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Economics both describes the way economic forces work and studies the efficiency, or inefficiency, that results. These two aspects of economics have probably never been wholly separated, and it is debatable how far it is possible or desirable to separate them. The question will ultimately be answered by evaluating these different theoretical methods in terms of the results they deliver. The theory of economic efficiency uniquely incorporates problem of ideals of good conduct and welfare, in short, of morals and ethics. Preface to Social Economics presents thumbnail sketches describing the growth of our awareness of social problems over the past century. Beginning in the nineteenth century, the sciences, both natural and social, made us aware of many factors governing our behavior. With the discovery of controllable external social causes, the responsibility for problems (and change) shifted from the individual to the group. Studies of industrial accidents are an… [detailed...]

David George
Preference Pollution : How Markets Create the Desires We Dislike (Economics, Cognition, and Society)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Seldom considered is whether markets do an adequate job of shaping our tastes. David George argues that they do not, and that the standard economic definition of efficiency can be used to demonstrate that the market ignores people`s desires about their desires. He concludes that markets perform poorly with respect to second-order preferences, thus worsening the problem of undesired desires. The book further investigates changes in perceptions and public policy toward such activities as gambling, credit, entertainment, and sexual behavior. David George is Chair and Professor Economics, LaSalle University. [detailed...]

Prefiguring Cyberculture : An Intellectual History

— y.

Description: The vast social apparatus of the computer network has aligned people with technology in unprecedented ways. The intimacy of the human-computer interface has made it impossible to distinguish technology from the social and cultural business of being human. Cyberculture is the broader name given to this process of becoming through technological means. This book shows that cyberculture has been a long time coming. In Prefiguring Cyberculture , media critics and theorists, philosophers, and historians of science explore the antecedents of such aspects of contemporary technological culture as the Internet, the World Wide Web, artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, virtual reality, and the cyborg. The contributors examine key texts that anticipate cybercultural practice and theory, including Plato`s `Simile of the Cave`, the Renaissance Ars Memoria, Descartes`s Meditations (on the mind-body split), Mary Shelley`s Frankenstein , Alan Turing`s … [detailed...]

Prehistoric Digital Poetry: An Archaeology of Forms

2007 y.
Publisher: University Alabama Press
Description: For the last five decades, poets have had a vibrant relationship with computers and digital technology. This book is a documentary study and analytic history of digital poetry that highlights its major practitioners and the ways that they have used technology to foster a new aesthetic. Focusing primarily on programs and experiments produced before the emergence of the World Wide Web in the mid-1990s, C.T.Funkhouser analyzes numerous landmark works of digital poetry to illustrate that the foundations of today`s most advanced works are rooted in the rudimentary generative, visual, and interlinked productions of the genre`s prehistoric period. Since 1959, computers have been used to produce several types of poetic output, including randomly generated writings, graphical works (static, animated, and video formats), and hypertext and hypermedia. Funkhouser demonstrates how hardware, programming, and software have been used to compose a range of new digital poetic forms. Several dozen… [detailed...]

Prehistoric Societies on the Northern Frontiers of China: Archaeological Perspectives on Identity Formation and Economic Change during the First Millennium … (Approaches to Anthropological Archaeology)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book focuses on the formative period in pastoral-sedentary relations, the late second and early first millennium BCE, on today`s northern borders of China. This area - known as the Northern Zone - emerged as a crucial arena for interactions among sedentary, semi-sedentary, and nomadic people during a decisive period in which the region`s unique economic adaptations, socio-political systems, local cultures and identities took shape. It is also during this period that the real and symbolic chasm between the `Chinese` (or Zhou) states and their northern neighbors emerged, and when conscious attempts were made to define a broader, ethnic-like identity vis-a-vis the `other` way of life. Based on archaeological field work in the Chifeng area of Inner Mongolia and on data carefully collected from Chinese archaeological publications, as well as on anthropologically-derived theories and rigorous analytical methods, the book challenges common perceptions which were based mainly on the… [detailed...]
