Deaf and Hearing Siblings in Conversation【電子書籍】[ Marla C. Berkowitz ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This is the first book to consider both deaf and hearing perspectives on the dynamics of adult sibling relationships. Deaf and hearing authors Berkowitz and Jonas conducted interviews with 22 adult siblings, using ASL and spoken English, to access their intimate thoughts. A major feature of the book is its analysis of how isolation impacts deaf-hearing sibling relationships. The book documents the 150 year history of societal attitudes embedded in sibling bonds and identifies how the siblings' lives were affected by the communication choices their parents made.</p> <p>The authors weave information throughout the text to reveal attitudes toward American Sign Language and the various roles deaf and hearing siblings take on as monitors, facilitators, signing-siblings and sibling-interpreters, all of which impact lifelong bonds.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,652円

The Blood Covenant: A Primitive Rite and its Bearings on Scripture【電子書籍】[ H. Clay Trumbull ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Blood Covenant: A Primitive Rite and its Bearings on Scripture," H. Clay Trumbull deftly explores the ancient practice of blood covenants, anchoring his analysis in both anthropological insight and theological reflection. The book is structured as a scholarly yet accessible text, employing a meticulous narrative style that interweaves biblical exegesis with cultural anthropological evidence. Trumbull's examination transcends mere historical description; he delves into the theological implications of blood covenants in the context of Scripture, proposing how these ancient rites illuminate our understanding of divine-human relationships as portrayed in biblical narratives. H. Clay Trumbull was a prominent American clergyman and author, deeply interested in the intersections of anthropology and theology. His unique perspective was likely influenced by his experiences in missionary work and his extensive travels, which exposed him to various cultural practices. This expertise culminated in a passionate inquiry into the sacredness of covenants, offering him a platform to bridge contemporary beliefs with ancient traditions, thus enhancing our comprehension of biblical texts. For scholars of Christian theology and lay readers alike, "The Blood Covenant" is a compelling read that elucidates significant theological concepts through the lens of cultural practices. Trumbull's ground-breaking analysis challenges readers to rethink their understanding of covenants in Scripture, making this book an essential addition to any theological library.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

<p><strong>From <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author Sam Kean comes incredible stories of science, history, finance, mythology, the arts, medicine, and more, as told by the Periodic Table.</strong></p> <p>Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curie's reputation? And why is gallium (Ga, 31) the go-to element for laboratory pranksters?</p> <p><em>The Periodic Table</em> is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, betrayal, and obsession. These fascinating tales follow every element on the table as they play out their parts in human history, and in the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. <em>The Disappearing Spoon</em> masterfully fuses science with the classic lore of invention, investigation, and discovery -- from the Big Bang through the end of time.</p> <p>Though solid at room temperature, gallium is a moldable metal that melts at 84 degrees Fahrenheit. A classic science prank is to mold gallium spoons, serve them with tea, and watch guests recoil as their utensils disappear.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,592円

Why Industrial Bearings Fail Analysis, Maintenance, and Prevention【電子書籍】[ Kirshna Murty ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A <em>bearing</em> is a common machine element used to constrain motion and reduce friction between moving parts. Bearings are used extensively in global industries, including automotive, construction, power generation, mechanical, chemical, mining, infrastructure, medical, food, etc. The estimated bearing market was valued at $128 billion in 2021, and expected to increase to nearly $227 billion by 2028.<br /> Unfortunately, sometimes bearings fail, and often at the most inopportune time. This is a source of great concern and expense to users, causing downtime and the loss of millions in damages, outages, and lack of productivity. While modern precision manufacturing and maintenance practices have reduced <em>some</em> of the premature failure, they haven’t addressed many of the core problems that lead to bearing failure.<br /> This work presents a collection of different case studies in a multitude of industries where bearings have failed, and <em>includes a failure description, observations, possible reasons for the failure, plausible cause and effect, and then discusses</em> what might have been done to mitigate the problem and, when possible, <em>provides solutions to prevent further failures</em>. The author uses root cause failure analysis and explores such topics as alignment, lubrication, manufacturing defects, mounting practices, contamination, and fatigue. He then explains how one or a combination of these issues worked together to cause the failure, and offers preventive solutions to avoid future problems.</p> <p><strong>Features</strong><br /> Throughout the book, <em>a classical RCFA approach is used for each case study, using a nine-step analysis with solutions:</em></p> <ol> <li>Define the problem</li> <li>Get information and input from various sources</li> <li>Locate the evidence</li> <li>Look for the mistakes</li> <li>Ishikawa / Fishbone Diagram</li> <li>Getting to the roots</li> <li>Solutions</li> <li>Create plans to implement the solution</li> <li>Monitor the solution and confirm if it works</li> </ol>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,596円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Testimony of the Rocks," Hugh Miller presents a compelling exploration of geology and its profound implications for both natural and revealed theology. Written during a pivotal moment in the 19th century, when scientific thought began to challenge traditional religious beliefs, Miller's work employs a vivid literary style that intertwines descriptive geological observation with philosophical inquiry. Through meticulous analysis of rock formations and fossil evidence, he seeks to harmonize the natural world with spiritual truth, demonstrating that geology can offer insights into divine creation and biblical narratives. Hugh Miller was a Scottish geologist, writer, and staunch advocate of the integration of science and faith.

Pastoral Bearings Lived Religion and Pastoral Theology【電子書籍】[ Barbara Hedges-Goettl ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The study of lived religion is an enterprise which attempts to elucidate how "ordinary" men and women in all times and places draw on religious behavior, media, and meanings to make sense of themselves and their world. Through the influence of liberation theology and postmodernism, pastoral theologians-like other scholars of religion-have begun more closely to examine the particularity of religious practice that is reflected through the rubric of lived religion.</p> <p><em>Pastoral Bearings</em> offers up ten studies that exemplify the usefulness of the lived religion paradigm to the field of pastoral theology. The volume presents detailed qualitative research focused on the everyday beliefs and practices of individuals and groups and explores the implications of lived religion for interdisciplinary conversation, intercultural and gender analysis, and congregational studies. Reflecting upon the utility of this approach for pastoral theological research, education, and pastoral care, the studies collected in <em>Pastoral Bearings</em> demonstrate the importance of the study of lived religion.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,500円

Modern Fiction, Disability, and the Hearing Sciences【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The relationship between critical disability studies and the hearing sciences is a dynamic one, and it’s changing still, both as clinicians come to terms with the evolving health of deaf and hearing communities and as the ‘social’ and ‘medical’ understandings of disability continue to gain traction among different groups. What might a ‘cultural’ approach to these overlapping areas of study involve? And what could narrative prose in particular have to tell us that other sources haven’t sensed?</p> <p>At a time when visual media otherwise seem to have captured the imagination, <em>Modern Fiction, Disability, and the Hearing Sciences</em> makes the case for a wide range of literature. In doing so ? through serials, short stories, circadian fiction, narrative history, morality tales, whodunits, Bildungsromane, life-writing, the Great American Novel ? the book reveals the diverse ways in which writers have plotted and voiced experiences of hearing, from the nineteenth century to the present day.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,450円

Hearing Impairment and Hearing Disability Towards a Paradigm Change in Hearing Services【電子書籍】[ Anthony Hogan ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The purpose of this book is to challenge people (service providers, people with a hearing disability and those who advocate for them) to reconsider the way western society thinks about hearing disability and the way it seeks to 'include them’. It highlights the concern that the design of hearing services is so historically marinated in ableist culture that service users often do not realise they may be participating in their own oppression within a phono-centric society. With stigma and marginalisation being the two most critical issues impacting on people with hearing disability, Hogan and Phillips document both the collective and personal impacts of such marginality. In so doing, the book brings forward an argument for a paradigm shift in hearing services. Drawing upon the latest research and policy work, the book opens up a conceptual framework for a new approach to hearing services and looks at the kinds of personal and systemic changes a paradigm shift would entail.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,119円

The Testimony of the Rocks: Geology in Its Bearings on the Two Theologies, Natural and Revealed【電子書籍】[ Hugh Miller ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Pal?ontology, or the science of ancient organisms, deals, as its subject, with all the plants and animals of all the geologic periods. It bears nearly the same sort of relation to the physical history of the past, that biography does to the civil and political history of the past. For just as a complete biographic system would include every name known to the historian, a complete pal?ontologic system would include every fossil known to the geologist. It enumerates and describes all the organic existences of all the extinct creations,ーall the existences, too, of the present creation that occur in the fossil or semi-fossil form; and, thus coextensive in space with the earth's surface,ーnay, greatly more than coextensive with the earth's surface,ーfor in the vast hieroglyphic record which our globe composes, page lies beneath page, and inscription covers over inscription,ーcoextensive, too, in time, with every period in the terrestrial history since being first began upon our planet,ーit presents to the student a theme so vast and multifarious, that it might seem but the result, on his part, of a proper modesty, conscious of the limited range of his powers, and of the brief and fleeting term of his life, were he to despair of being ever able effectually to grapple with it. "But," to borrow from one of the most ingenious of our Scottish metaphysicians, "in this, as in other instances in which nature has given us difficulties with which to cope, she has not left us to be wholly overcome." "If," says Dr. Thomas Brown, in his remarks on the classifying principle,ー"if she has placed us in a labyrinth, she has at the same time furnished us with a clue which may guide us, not, indeed, through all its dark and intricate windings, but through those broad paths which conduct us into day. The single power by which we discover resemblance or relation in general, is a sufficient aid to us in the perplexity or confusion of our first attempts at arrangement. It begins by converting thousands, and more than thousands, into one; and, reducing in the same manner the numbers thus formed, it arrives at last at the few distinctive characters of those great comprehensive tribes on which it ceases to operate, because there is nothing left to oppress the memory or the understanding." But, is this all? Can the Pal?ontologist but say that that classifying principle, which in every other department of science yields such assistance to the memory, is also of use in his, or but urge that it enables him to sort and arrange his facts; and that, by converting one idea into the type and exemplar of many resembling ones, it imparts to him an ability of carrying not inadequate conceptions of the mighty whole in his mind? If this were all, you might well ask, Why obtrude upon us, in connection with your special science, a common semi-metaphysical idea, equally applicable to all the sciences,ーin especial, for example, to that botany which is the science of existing plants, and to that zoology which is the science of existing animals? Nay, I reply, but it is not all. I refer to this classifying principle because, while it exists in relation to all other sciences as a principleーto use the words of the metaphysician just quotedー"given to us by nature,"ーas a principle of the mind within,ーit exists in Pal?ontological science as a principle of nature itself,ーas a principle palpably external to the mind. It is a marvellous fact, whose full meaning we can as yet but imperfectly comprehend, that myriads of ages ere there existed a human mind, well nigh the same principles of classification now developed by man's intellect in our better treatises of zoology and botany, were developed on this earth by the successive geologic periods; and that the by-past productions of our planet, animal and vegetable, were chronologically arranged in its history, according to the same laws of thought which impart regularity and order to the works of the later naturalist and phytologists.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,200円

Heat, Bearings, and Lubrication Engineering Analysis of Thermally Coupled Shear Flows and Elastic Solid Boundaries【電子書籍】[ Ralph A. Burton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book is about failure mechanisms in bearings and seals when high speeds or loads cause significant frictional heating. It is about how to predict and avoid these kinds of failures. The text is intended for the designer and mechanical engineer responsible for high-performance machinery. The subject matter is analytical and interdisciplinary. It incorporates transient heat flow, thermal deformation, and the fluid mechanics of thin films. A systematic effort has been made to define and condense these contributions into a set of tools that can solve practical problems. The primary goal of this book is to give modem engineers a set of guidelines and design criteria to help them avoid thermally coupled failures in machines. The most important features are (I) the systematic definition and treatment of specific phenomena, (2) the use of consistent nomenclature, and (3) the worked examples. Recent publications are incorporated, and completely new work is presented to fill in gaps in the existing literature. When thin viscous films are sheared at high rates, viscous heating can distort the solid boundary surfaces. The simplest configuration that shows this effect is the flow around a cylindrical journal that turns in a cylindrical bore. Thermal deformation can be the same magnitude as film thickness and can cause changes in the distribution of viscous heating. As a consequence, heating may be concentrated at small areas on the solid boundary surfaces and thus cause seizure when the critical temperature for a given material is reached.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 12,154円

Cremation of the Dead, Its History and Bearings Upon Public Health (Illustrated)【電子書籍】[ William Eassie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p> Cremation of the dead is neither new in theory nor in practice. In the England of modern times, however, the question has only recently assumed recognised importance. And the more one considers cremation, the more one finds himself wondering how it has come to pass that we practise burial, with its many faults, and do not burn our dead. Thousands amongst us are now beginning to feel thankful that the dead are soon to 'rule our spirits from their urns' in a realistic and not alone in a poetical sense. They think there is something majestic and even pleasurable in the idea that it will ere long be possible, on all civilised shores, to leave their mother earth, not with a partial, but with a fully consummated sacrifice upon her altar, bidding her adieu none the worse, but rather the better, for their sojourn with her. They groan[2] and labour under the burden of enforced burial, and 'hail with satisfaction and joy the prospect that a chariot of fire may receive them instead of the cold and darksome grave.'</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 996円

Sign Language in Mainstream Education for the Deaf and Hard-of-hearing Students in Asia【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book focuses on two means of recruiting sign language to support DHH students in mainstream education in Asia. The first approach is educational sign interpreting, which has been adopted to support signing DHH students in mainstream classrooms in Taiwan.</p> <p>Contributions report on a questionnaire survey with post-hoc interviews examining the reactions of students, parents, a resource teacher, and an interpreter towards providing this service in the education system. The second approach is co-enrolment, which involves bringing a critical mass of DHH students into the mainstream classroom for them to study with hearing children, supported by either a deaf teacher or a teacher highly proficient in signing, who co-teaches with a regular teacher and co-shares responsibilities in taking care of the whole class of students. The chapters exemplifying this approach report on the effects of co-enrolment on DHH students’ language development and academic attainment.</p> <p>This book was originally published as a special issue of <em>Deafness & Education International.</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 11,606円

Jean Rhys's Modernist Bearings and Experimental Aesthetics【電子書籍】[ Sue Thomas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Addressing Jean Rhys's composition and positioning of her fiction, this book invites and challenges us to read the tacit, silent and explicit textual bearings she offers and reveals new insights about the formation, scope and complexity of Rhys's experimental aesthetics.</p> <p>Tracing the distinctive and shifting evolution of Rhys's experimental aesthetics over her career, Sue Thomas explores Rhys's practices of composition in her fiction and drafts, as well as her self-reflective comment on her writing. The author examines patterns of interrelation, intertextuality, intermediality and allusion, both diachronic and synchronic, as well as the cultural histories entwined within them. Through close analysis of these, this book reveals new experimental, thematic, generic and political reaches of Rhys's fiction and sharpens our insight into her complex writerly affiliations and lineages.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,068円

Hydrodynamic Lubrication Bearings and Thrust Bearings【電子書籍】[ J. Frene ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Hydrodynamic Lubrication is the culmination of over 20 years close, collaborative work by the five authors and discusses the practical use of the formalization of low pressure lubrication. The work concentrates on the developments to journal and thrust bearings and includes subjects such as: ? the dynamic behaviour of plain and tilting-pads ? the thermal aspects ? the positive and negative effects of non-cyclindricity and shape defects resulting from manufacturing or operation ? the effects of inertia ? the appearance of Taylor's vortices and of turbulence and their repercussions. The book contains an abundance of test results objectively compared with theoretical conclusions and a chapter on "technical considerations" to ensure that draft mechanisms will work satisfactorily under the imposed conditions. Hydrodynamic Lubrication is an essential reference book for future and practising engineers who want to put hydrodynamic and hydrostatic journal bearings and thrust bearings into operation under conditions of total safety.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 29,900円
