The Narrow Door
Author: Paul Lisicky
Publisher: Graywolf Press
ISBN: 1555979211
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
In The Narrow Door, Paul Lisicky creates a compelling collage of scenes and images drawn from two long-term relationships, one with a woman novelist and the other with his ex-husband, a poet. The contours of these relationships shift constantly. Denise and Paul, stretched by the demands of their writing lives, drift apart, and Paul's romance begins to falter. And the world around them is frail: environmental catastrophes like the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, natural disasters like the earthquake in Haiti, and local disturbances make an unsettling backdrop to the pressing concerns of Denise's cancer diagnosis and Paul's impending breakup. Lisicky's compassionate heart and resilience seem all the stronger in the face of such searing losses. His survival--hard-won, unsentimental, authentic--proves that in turning toward loss, we embrace life.

Book Description
Curated new collections. H.P. Lovecraft was the inventor of cosmic horror, of weird fiction and the Cthulhu mythology. His stories, incubated by a lonely and febrile childhood, found purchase in the fertile earth of pulp fiction where he inspired many other writers, from Robert E. Howard, to Robert Bloch and Clark Ashton Smith, many of whom also collaborated on the several short stories, some of which are also included here, in this special deluxe edition. This title, alongside H.G. Wells Short Stories, is a companion volume to our hugely successful Gothic Fantasy series of classic and modern writers.

#No Fear
Author: Suly Rieman
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664294651
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Suly, in her book “No Fear”, does a masterful job of illuminating the fears we face, what those fears do to our bodies, and, most importantly, steps we can take to overcome these fears. If you’re looking for a magic pill that will suddenly rid your life of fear, anxiety, and depression you will not find it in this book. Overcoming our irrational fears is certainly a journey and, in light of this truth, I implore you to slip into your proverbial shoes, grab your day pack and water, and allow Suly to take you on an excursion of life-changing discovery. The personal breakthroughs and understanding this book unpacks will have a profound impact on how you view and interact with yourself and others; it will indeed lead you to “JUMP FIRST – FEAR LATER.” Patrick McCalla Executive Director, Operation JOY Foundation President, Four Thirteen Productions

Signal and Image Representation in Combined Spaces
Author: Yehoshua Zeevi
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0080541178
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 603
Book Description
This volume explains how the recent advances in wavelet analysis provide new means for multiresolution analysis and describes its wide array of powerful tools. The book covers variations of the windowed Fourier transform, constructions of special waveforms suitable for specific tasks, the use of redundant representations in reconstruction and enhancement, applications of efficient numerical compression as a tool for fast numerical analysis, and approximation properties of various waveforms in different contexts.

Handbook of Fourier Analysis & Its Applications
Author: Robert J Marks II
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198044305
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 799
Book Description
Fourier analysis has many scientific applications - in physics, number theory, combinatorics, signal processing, probability theory, statistics, option pricing, cryptography, acoustics, oceanography, optics and diffraction, geometry, and other areas. In signal processing and related fields, Fourier analysis is typically thought of as decomposing a signal into its component frequencies and their amplitudes. This practical, applications-based professional handbook comprehensively covers the theory and applications of Fourier Analysis, spanning topics from engineering mathematics, signal processing and related multidimensional transform theory, and quantum physics to elementary deterministic finance and even the foundations of western music theory. As a definitive text on Fourier Analysis, Handbook of Fourier Analysis and Its Applications is meant to replace several less comprehensive volumes on the subject, such as Processing of Multifimensional Signals by Alexandre Smirnov, Modern Sampling Theory by John J. Benedetto and Paulo J.S.G. Ferreira, Vector Space Projections by Henry Stark and Yongyi Yang and Fourier Analysis and Imaging by Ronald N. Bracewell. In addition to being primarily used as a professional handbook, it includes sample problems and their solutions at the end of each section and thus serves as a textbook for advanced undergraduate students and beginning graduate students in courses such as: Multidimensional Signals and Systems, Signal Analysis, Introduction to Shannon Sampling and Interpolation Theory, Random Variables and Stochastic Processes, and Signals and Linear Systems.
