Book Description
Taslima Nasrin is known for her powerful writing on women's rights and uncompromising criticism of religious fundamentalism. This defiance on her part had led to the ban on the Bengali original of this book by the Left Front in West Bengal as well as the Government of Bangladesh in 2003. While the West Bengal government lifted the injunction after the ban was struck down by the Calcutta High Court in 2005, Nasrin was eventually driven out of Kolkata and forced to expunge passages from the book, besides facing a four-million-dollar defamation lawsuit. Bold and evocative, Split: A Life opens a window to the experiences and works of one of the bravest writers of our times.

ISBN: 9781563472619
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 692
Book Description
A textbook that incorporates the latest methods used for the analysis of spacecraft orbital, attitude, and structural dynamics and control. Spacecraft dynamics is treated as a dynamic system with emphasis on practical applications, typical examples of which are the analysis and redesign of the pointing control system of the Hubble Space Telescope and the analysis of an active vibrations control for the COFS (Control of Flexible Structures) Mast Flight System. In addition to the three subjects mentioned above, dynamic systems modeling, analysis, and control are also discussed. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The Acquisition of Written Language
Author: Sarah Warshauer Freedman
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
This volume addresses a central question in the acquisition of written language-the interrelated roles of response and revision- and begins to account both for the cognitive processes underlying learning to write and the social context of schooling. Both perspectives are crucial to understanding the acquisition of writing. The first section examines the language of instruction to see how response and revision are accomplished in instructional settings. The second section investigates the role of the computer as respondent and the usefulness of its aid during revision. The final section challenges both traditional ways of studying revision and past assumptions about parts of the revision process. They offer a new perspective for studying revision and its relationship to response.
