Auto Mechanics
Author: Kevin L. Borg
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 9780801886065
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
The history of automobiles is not just the story of invention, manufacturing, and marketing; it is also a story of repair. Auto Mechanics opens the repair shop to historical study—for the first time—by tracing the emergence of a dirty, difficult, and important profession. Kevin L. Borg's study spans a century of automotive technology—from the horseless carriage of the late nineteenth century to the "check engine" light of the late twentieth. Drawing from a diverse body of source material, Borg explores how the mechanic’s occupation formed and evolved within the context of broad American fault lines of class, race, and gender and how vocational education entwined these tensions around the mechanic’s unique expertise. He further shows how aspects of the consumer rights and environmental movements, as well as the design of automotive electronics, reflected and challenged the social identity and expertise of the mechanic. In the history of the American auto mechanic, Borg finds the origins of a persistent anxiety that even today accompanies the prospect of taking one's car in for repair.

The Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Continua
Author: Morton E. Gurtin
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139482157
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 721
Book Description
The Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Continua presents a unified treatment of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics that emphasises the universal status of the basic balances and the entropy imbalance. These laws are viewed as fundamental building blocks on which to frame theories of material behaviour. As a valuable reference source, this book presents a detailed and complete treatment of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics for graduates and advanced undergraduates in engineering, physics and mathematics. The chapters on plasticity discuss the standard isotropic theories and, in addition, crystal plasticity and gradient plasticity.

If Creation Is a Gift
Author: Mark Manolopoulos
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 0791494020
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
What if our world were considered a gift? Extending postmodern gift theory to ecological and ecotheological concerns, Mark Manolopoulos explores how "creation"—the what-is—can be seen as a gift. Creation, when viewed in a radically egalitarian way, is the matrix of all material things—human, otherwise-than-human, or humanly manufactured. Utilizing and critiquing the work of Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Marion, Manolopoulos argues that the gift is an irresolvable paradox marked by the contradictory elements of excess (gratuity, linearity) and exchange (gratitude, return). Philosophical and theological reflections on the gift become entangled in its paradoxical tension, but ultimately both aspects must be respected and reflected. When it comes to the creation-gift, we should vacillate between responses like letting-be, enjoyment, utility, and return. Elegantly written and thought-provoking, If Creation Is a Gift both contributes to the ongoing debate on the gift and provides a fresh philosophical and theological consideration of the environmental crisis.

Book Description
This book serves as a practical text on the subject of hand surgery that covers all of the practical mechanical principles in a nonthreatening way. The book covers all of the basic elements of the forces that result in movement of the hand, and all the forces that hinder its movement. The authors quantify those elements in manner in which surgeons and therapists can judge their own measure of success or failure as they try to repair and restore movement to damaged hands.

Flight Instructor
Author: Facundo Conforti
Publisher: Biblioteca Aeronáutica
ISBN:
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Although it is quite a challenge to teach a specific subject in a simple and pleasant way, it is possible thanks to lived experiences and acquired knowledge. Based on this same principle, we have accepted a challenge different from the rest, more complex but no less exciting: the challenge of "teaching how to teach.” Flight Instructor is aimed at those pilots who wish to become aviation educators, aviation psychologists, aviation friends, among other titles, as a flight instructor usually fulfills all these roles in the cockpit. Teaching is an art that requires navigating through different stages of a student's personality, as each person is different, and each of these different individuals requires a particular instructor with a specific personality capable of bringing out the student's maximum potential. In this new edition, we will explore the basic theoretical concepts that a flight instructor must master. Concepts such as the teaching and learning process, the communication process, and the evaluation process. Teaching techniques adapted to different student personalities, basic concepts of body language, and more. "Teaching how to teach" is the premise of this manual. Understanding each stage of each process in depth and mastering their techniques will be the goal.

The Gift
Author: Aafke E. Komter
Publisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9789053561737
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
What moves us to give gifts to other people? The Gift brings together perspectives on gift exchange and reciprocity from different social scientific disciplines. The first part of this book contains anthropological and sociological 'classics' on gift giving and reciprocity. In the second part the focus is on social psychological theories, and on empirical research on gift giving in Western society. Finally, the main concepts underlying gift exchange - reciprocity, self-interest and altruism - are discussed. Here, the focus is on fundamental assumptions about human nature. Altruism and self-interest turn out to be much more interwoven than we are inclined to think.
