Binging Family: Die Konzeption von Familie in der Video-on-Demand-Serie
by Jakob KelschIn diesem Open-Access-Buch zeigt Jakob Kelsch, wie sich in der US-amerikanischen TV-Serie der 1950er und 1960er Jahre der Mythos der patriarchal-strukturierten Kernfamilie als Ideal des familiären Zusammenlebens herausbildete. Trotz Phasen der Dekonstruktion und der zunehmenden Repräsentation problematischer und ethnisch wie sozial diverser Familienverhältnisse erweist sich dieser Mythos bis heute als äußerst persistent. Der durch den Digitalisierungsprozess bedingte Aufstieg der Streamingdienste und der Siegeszug deren serieller Erzeugnisse brachte eine inhaltliche Diversifizierung des Genres Familienserie und eine zunehmende narrative Komplexität mit sich. Doch auch diese kann nur an der Oberfläche des tief im kulturellen Wissen verankerten Mythos der heteronormativen Kernfamilie rütteln.

Bingo!
by Martín CaparrósObservaciones, pensamientos e ideas a propósito de los números, desde el 00 al 99. Sucesos históricos, supersticiones, la actualidad, la política, el mundo. Originalmente publicados en forma semanal en las revistas Veintidós y Veintitrés. Al principio fue un desafío: «Ahora que cumplimos 69 números, a que no te atrevés a escribir una columna sobre el número 69», le dijo el editor de Veintitrés, la revista donde entonces escribía. Caparrós lo hizo, por supuesto, y después pensó que por qué no el 70 y el 71 y el 72 y así de seguido, hasta llenar el álbum de las cifras de dos dígitos. Escritos al calor del nuevo milenio, los cien ensayos breves de este libro terminan siendo tan imprevisibles como un dado lanzado al azar. Del 00 al 99, esta especie de cábala de temas urgentes, argentinos o mundiales, políticos, sociales, filosóficos es quizás el libro más original de Martín Caparrós, el que lo elevó a la categoría de gran contador de historias. Críticas:«Caparrós construye una serie heterogénea en temas y saberes, y halla en su plan numérico tanto la sujeción que las reminiscencias insalvables de algunas cifras le imponen como la libertad para referir el hallazgo de cualquier cosa que otras le permiten».Patricio Lennard, Radar, Página/12 «Caparrós es una manera de ver y entender el mundo».Carles Geli, Babelia«Martín Caparrós, uno de los más geniales cronistas contemporáneos, depura de manera exquisita, emocionada, vibrante y distanciada una prosa de un poderío narrativo excepcional».Fernando R. Lafuente, ABC Cultural «Un perturbador sistemático, un sembrador de dudas».Francesca Lazzarato, Il Manifesto«Su prosa y su mirada son un reactivo fuerte para almas sensibles o amigas de lo políticamente correcto».Leila Guerriero, El País «Convence tanto como seduce».Edmundo Paz Soldán, La Tercera
Binocular Astronomy (The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series)
by Stephen TonkinBinoculars have, for many, long been regarded as an "entry level" observational tool, and relatively few have used them as a serious observing instrument. This is changing! Many people appreciate the relative comfort of two-eyed observing, but those who use binoculars come to realize that they offer more than comfort. The view of the stars is more aesthetically pleasing and therefore binocular observers tend to observe more frequently and for longer periods. "Binocular Astronomy", 2nd edition, extends its coverage of small and medium binoculars to large and giant (i.e., up to 300mm aperture) binoculars and also binoviewers, which brings the work into the realm of serious observing instruments. Additionally, it goes far deeper into the varying optical characteristics of binoculars, giving newcomers and advanced astronomers the information needed to make informed choices on purchasing a pair. It also covers relevant aspects of the physiology of binocular (as in "both eyes") observation. The first edition of this title was praised for its suggested objects for observation and especially for the finder charts for each object. In this second edition, this section is expanded in three ways. There are new objects, with more information on each object, and a re-organization of the objects for binoculars for easier selection for readers. "Binocular Astronomy" 2nd Edition puts an emphasis on understanding binoculars and their use. The additional content in this second edition reflects the latest developments in technology, available testing techniques, and practical ideas for binocular use. It also responds to the substantially positive reviews of the first edition, and is now even better suited to its target readership.

Binocular Vision: An Inquiry into Psychoanalytic Techniques and Field Theory
by Elena MolinariBinocular Vision: An Inquiry into Psychoanalytic Techniques and Field Theory explains field theory from a Bionian perspective, while exploring the relationship between art and psychoanalysis. Elena Molinari starts from Bion’s double definition to explore the relationship between the conscious and unconscious thought process. She looks at a wide range of specific situations where field theory can be beneficial, from mother-baby therapy with a borderline mother, couple and group therapy, and the relationship of female subjectivity between an analyst and an adolescent analysand. In each situation, Molinari unpicks what Binocular Vision might mean as a transformative process used to explore the primitive parts of the mind. By doing so, she brings the reader back to the earliest developments of the primary relationship between analyst and client, and how this process can unite the psychoanalytic process and the artistic process. The book has been written for psychotherapists approaching and utilising field theory in child and adult psychoanalysis, and offers vital knowledge to clinicians working with patients in primitive states.

Binoculars
by Philip F. DimeoFor over 14 years, Philip DiMeo, a talented cartoonist and social worker, led a double life, masquerading as a fully sighted person, while becoming blind. What prompted him to hide his condition? Pride, and fear that if his impending blindness were discovered he would lose all that was important. He concealed his vision loss, a secret that he believed could potentially ruin his life, but in hindsight opened doors. At most social functions, fearful that he would trip, bump into someone, or knock something over, his wife propelled him around. Ignoring warnings from his ophthalmologist, he continued driving despite a series of auto accidents which included driving onto railroad tracks while an oncoming train approached. Philip reveals that, despite diagnoses by three ophthalmologists and three optometrists, he denied having retinitis pigmentosa, an inherited degenerative eye disease that causes severe vision impairment and often blindness. When Philip finally confronted his disability, he found that the challenges of his vision loss were the springboard to achievements to come. Binoculars is a sensitive, amazing, and astonishingly revealing first-hand account of a man who achieves incredible feats with his courage and talent, while finally coming to terms with his blindness
Binomial Ideals (Graduate Texts in Mathematics #279)
by Takayuki Hibi Jürgen Herzog Hidefumi OhsugiThis textbook provides an introduction to the combinatorial and statistical aspects of commutative algebra with an emphasis on binomial ideals. In addition to thorough coverage of the basic concepts and theory, it explores current trends, results, and applications of binomial ideals to other areas of mathematics. The book begins with a brief, self-contained overview of the modern theory of Gröbner bases and the necessary algebraic and homological concepts from commutative algebra. Binomials and binomial ideals are then considered in detail, along with a short introduction to convex polytopes. Chapters in the remainder of the text can be read independently and explore specific aspects of the theory of binomial ideals, including edge rings and edge polytopes, join-meet ideals of finite lattices, binomial edge ideals, ideals generated by 2-minors, and binomial ideals arising from statistics. Each chapter concludes with a set of exercises and a list of related topics and results that will complement and offer a better understanding of the material presented.Binomial Ideals is suitable for graduate students in courses on commutative algebra, algebraic combinatorics, and statistics. Additionally, researchers interested in any of these areas but familiar with only the basic facts of commutative algebra will find it to be a valuable resource.
Binomials in Late Middle English to Early Modern English: Style, Frequency and Etymology (Routledge Studies in Historical Linguistics)
by Akinobu TaniThis book charts the development of style and lexicon in the English language from Late Middle English to Early Modern English through the analysis of binomials across a wide range of texts and genres.The volume elucidates the forms, functions, and origins of binomials, otherwise understood as word pairs, such as “safe and sound,” as they manifest in representative prose texts from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries and in the Helsinki Corpus from the fourteenth through to the early eighteenth centuries. The book begins with cross-comparative analyses of binomials, examining their frequency, etymological makeup, and repetition in prose texts including Chaucer and Malory to explore the stylistic characteristics of each text, toward zooming out to examine their development in texts across different genres, from political to philosophical to legal texts, in the Helsinki Corpus. In charting binomial development over both time and text type, the volume offers readers a unique historical perspective into the evolution of phraseology from Late Middle English through to Early Modern English and in turn, a solid foundation for future research on lexical development in the English language.This book will be of interest to scholars in English historical linguistics, English stylistics, English corpus linguistics, and English lexicology.Chapter 8 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 International license.

Bio- and Nanosorbents from Natural Resources (Springer Series on Polymer and Composite Materials)
by Ajay Kumar Mishra Shivani Bhardwaj MishraThis book reviews the work in the field of nanoadsorbents derived from natural polymers, with a special emphasis on materials finding application in water remediation. It includes natural materials both with an organic or an inorganic skeleton, from which the nanomaterials can be made. Those nanomaterials can therefore be used to reinforce other matrices and in their pristine form have an extraordinary adsorption efficiency. Being of natural or biological origin, the materials described in this book distinguish themselves as eco-friendly and non-toxic. The book describes how these benefits of the described materials can be combined and exploited. It will thus appeal to chemists, nanotechnologists, environmental engineers and generally all scientist working in the field of water pollution and remediation as an inspiration for the innovation toward new technologies.
Bio-Architecture
by Javier SenosiainBio-Architecture studies the natural principles of animal and human constructions from several different perspectives, and presents a great part of the knowledge that gives origin and shape to built form. Organic architecture offers a design approach arising from natural principles, bringing us back to local history, tradition, and cultural roots to give us built forms which are in harmony with nature. It also shows how architects can take advantage of the resources that contemporary technology has placed within our grasp.Bio-Architecture is a unique book that studies the natural principles of animal and human constructions from several different perspectives and looks at what gives origin and shape to built form. The text gives an informative, inspiring overview of the drive toward organically informed design both intrinsically and aesthetically using a wide variety of international examples.Javier Senosiain is an architect and an historian. He has pursued his interest in Organic Architecture across the globe drawing parallels between Buckminster Fuller's Geodesic dome and the spider's web; between Santiago Calatrava's Cathedral of St John in NY and the roots of a tree. Where nature has inspired form, Senosiain has made a career of analyzing and applying the principles he sees in some very creative writing and architecture.
