2013 Reprint of 1941 Revised and Enlarged Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Tarski is considered one of the five greatest logicians of all time, alongside Aristotle (384-322 BCE), Boole (1815-1864), Frege (1848-1925) and Gödel. This book, together with Aristotle's "Prior Analytics" and Boole's "Laws of Thought," should form the core of any logic library. This classic undergraduate treatment examines the deductive method in its first part and explores applications of logic and methodology in constructing mathematical theories in its second part. A thought-provoking introduction to the fundamentals and the perfect adjunct to courses in logic and the foundations of mathematics. Exercises appear throughout.

Osprey's study of one of the most important battles of the long-elasting Germanic Wars (113 BC - 439 AD). Arminius, a young member of the Cheruscan tribe under the Roman Empire felt that Rome could be beaten in battle and that such a victory would guarantee the freedom of the Germans as a confederation of independent tribes, led by the Cheruscans, who would - in turn - be led by him. Throughout AD 8 and the early part of AD 9, Arminius used his position under the governor of Germania Inferior well, ostensibly promoting Rome whilst in reality welding the tribes together in an anti-Roman alliance, agreeing with his confederates that they would wait until the Roman garrison had moved to their summer quarters and then rise up against the invaders. With the arrival of September, the time soon came for the Roman troops to return to their stations along the Rhine and as they marched westwards through the almost impenetrable Teutoburg Forest, Arminius sprang his trap. In a series of running battles in the forest, Varus' army, consisting of three Roman Legions (XVII, XVIII and XIX) and several thousand auxiliaries - a total of roughly 20,000 men - was destroyed. The consequences for Rome were enormous - the province of Germania was now virtually undefended and Gaul was open to a German invasion which although it never materialized, led a traumatized Augustus to decree that, henceforth, the Rhine would remain the demarcation line between the Roman world and the German tribes, in addition to which the destroyed legions were never re-formed or their numbers reused in the Roman Army: after AD 9, the sequence of numbers would run from I to XVI and then from XX onwards, it was as if the three legions had never existed.
Grant McKay, former member of The Anarchistic Order of Scientists, has finally done the impossible: He has deciphered Black Science and punched through the barriers of reality. But what lies beyond the veil is not epiphany, but chaos.

The publication homes in on a feature of the work of media artist Nam June Paik that has been largely overlooked: live moments, a consistent element running all through his artistic career. The immediate experience of the audience and their active involvement are crucial components in Paik's work. Starting with his early career as a composer, one focus of the book is on the way Paik approaches music as a score, a concept, and an event. His artistic ideas and methods are presentedwith reference to key series of works - including his performances, his participatory pieces, his interest in live television, and his multimedia works. This richly illustrated chronicle of his performances conveys a vivid impression of these live moments. Specially designed pages created by the artists Annika Kahrs, Autumn Knight, Aki Onda, and Samson Young underscore the relevance of Paik's work today. Nam June Paik (1932-2006) was one of the twentieth century's most important artists and a pioneer of video art.

Print-on-Demand hat die Buchwelt revolutioniert. Als analog-digitale Hybride sind PoD-Bücher der Inbegriff des postdigitalen Zeitalters. Digitaldruck und niedrigschwellige Online-Plattformen wie Blurb, Lulu oder Kindle Direct Publishing erlauben es potenziell jedem, ohne finanzielles Investment und Risiko sofort und weltweit zu publizieren. Das eröffnet Freiräume jenseits des klassischen Buchmarkts und führt zu einer Demokratisierung der Produktion. Zugleich ist dieser neue Aktionsradiusfundamental abhängig von den Vorgaben und Interessen der Plattformen. In diesem Spannungsverhältnis ist eine ganze Subkultur entstanden, die das Medium Buch noch einmal auf mögliche Inhalte, Ästhetiken, Materialitäten, Ökonomien und Öffentlichkeiten erprobt und zugleich unsere digitale Gegenwart kritisch reflektiert und verhandelt. Die Library of Artistic Print on Demand kartiert erstmals dieses Experimentierfeld in seiner globalen Verbreitung, historischen Tiefe und politischenRelevanz. Andreas Bülhoff arbeitet künstlerisch und wissenschaftlich an der Schnittstelle von Text und Technologie. Annette Gilbert forscht zu experimentellen Schreibformen, Künstlerbüchern und Konzeptkunst.
Eine Abhandlung des preußischen Kampfes gegen das Napoleonische Frankreich herauszugeben, erschien zunächst wenig sinnvoll. Zu oft wurde dieses Thema seit über 200 Jahren bearbeitet. Trotzdem dient dieses Buch als Baustein für die Reihe über die Alliierten gegen Frankreich. Auf der Basis von Memoiren preußischer Soldaten beschreibt der Zirkel zunächst den Zeitkreis von 1806 bis 1812. Dabei erinnern sich die Zeitzeugen an die Kämpfe von Jena bis zum Frieden von Tilsit, über die Heeresreform und Schills Aufstandsversuch 1809 bis zum Ende des Bündnisses mit Napoleon 1812. Ein zweiter Band beinhaltet die Jahre 1813 bis 1815.
An innovative view of how everyone doing part-time work and part-time caregiving would promote flourishing families, free time, equality, and the true value of care.The way that Western countries approach work and care for others is fundamentally dysfunctional. The amount of time spent at work places unsustainable stress on families, particularly in the face of rising inequality, while those who perform care are underpaid and their labor undervalued.In Part-Time for All, Jennifer Nedelsky and Tom Malleson propose a plan to radically restructure both work and care. As such, they offer a solution to four pressing problems: the inequality of caregivers; family stress from competing demands of work and care; chronic time scarcity; and policymakers who are ignorant about the care that life requires--the care/policy divide. Nedelsky and Malleson argue that no capable adult should do paid work for more than 30 hours per week, so that they can contribute substantial amounts of time to unpaid care for family, friends, or other "communities of care." While the authors focus primarily on human-to-human care, they also include care for the earth as a vital part of this shift. All of the elements of Nedelsky and Malleson's proposal already exist piecemeal in various countries. What is needed is to integrate the key reforms and scale them up. The result is an actionable plan to motivate widespread take-up of part-time work and part-time care. Highlighting how these new norms can create synergies of institutional transformation while fostering a cultural shift in the value of care and work, this "care manifesto" identifies the deep changes that are needed and lays out a feasible path forward.

Peategelane emeriitadvokaat Aleksander Glikman ei tahtnud seda raamatut. Raamat kannab pealkirja, millega Glikman nõus ei ole. Seda raamatut soovisid Glikmani kolleegid 1 kolm põlvkonda advokaate, kellele Glikman on pühendumuse, väärikuse ja teadmistega eeskujuks, õpetajaks ja etaloniks olnud. Glikman nõustus raamatuga lõpuks Eesti Advokatuuri palvel. Pealkirja osas jäigi viisakalt Eriarvamusele. Selle raamatu peamine eesmärk on näidata, kuidas pühendunud inimesed said õiguse ning õiglase õigusemõistmise eest seista ka autoritaarses vanglaimpeeriumis 1 nii, et punaimpeeriumi lagunemise järel saab sama ausalt ja otse kõigile silma vaadata ka taastatud Eesti Vabariigis.
