The Non-literate Other
Public debates on the benefits and dangers of mass literacy prompted nineteenth-century British authors to write about illiteracy. Since the early twentieth century writers outside Europe have paid increasing attention to the subject as a measure both of cultural dependence and independence. So far literary studies has taken little notice of this. The Non-Literate Other: Readings of Illiteracy in Twentieth-Century Novels in English offers explanations for this lack of interest in illiteracy amongst scholars of literature, and attempts to remedy this neglect by posing the question of how writers use their literacy to write about a condition radically unlike their own. Answers to this question...
The London Stage 1950-1959
Theatre in London has celebrated a rich and influential history, and in 1976 the first volume of J. P. Wearing’s reference series provided researchers with an indispensable resource of these productions. In the decades since the original calendars were produced, several research aids have become available, notably various reference works and the digitization of important newspapers and relevant periodicals. The second edition of The London Stage 1950–1959: A Calendar of Productions, Performers, and Personnel provides a chronological calendar of London shows from the first of January, 1950, through the 31st of December, 1959. The volume chronicles more than 3,100 productions at 52 major c...
A Rouge's Gallery
Nikos Rallis is the definitive high-risk investor, whose avarice entraps even the most savvy members of the international business community. He fluidly skirts legal barriers in Monaco, Switzerland, and the United States. His roguish pixie dust suffocates astute targets with outrageous promises of reward. Savvy women front his schemes, captivated only slightly by his charms but much more by the opportunity to share his gains. Perched in his Alpine headquarters, the obsessive secrecy of Switzerland and strategic purpose of Chinese foreign investment become veiled money-laundering tools for his exploitation of a defense contract in Washingtons easy-money climate. Ultimately, his chilling gallery of plundered emotions produces a fatal result that even his legendary diligence never anticipated.
Yöhaukat
Suosikkiarkeologi aavemaisen koiran hampaissa Viehättävä brittisarja koukuttaa rikosten, rakkauden ja arkeologian yhdistelmällä. 13. osassa Ruth Galloway ratkoo synkkään maataloon johtavia murhia. Arkeologi Ruth Gallowayta tarvitaan taas, kun aarteenetsijäryhmä Yöhaukat löytää Norfolkin rannalta pronssikautisen asekätkön – ja ruumiin. Samaan aikaan komisario Nelson ratkoo syrjäisessä maatalossa kuolleen pariskunnan arvoitusta, joka mutkistuu, kun Ruth kaivaa pihasta jättiläiskoiran ruumiin. Murhat ja hirviökoiran mysteeri kietovat kaksikon jälleen yhteiseen seikkailuun, jossa kaikki jäljet johtavat uhkaaville tiluksille ja legendaarisen pedon suuhun. ”Vakuuttava juo...
Pilgrim Journey
"This book describes the rich and varied influences on the author's life and poetry: the black Baptist church; the books lining her minister father's study; her meetings with outstanding African Americans such as ministers Charles A. Tindley, composer of 150 hymns, and S.S. Jones, who had the vision to know that black life in Oklahoma was important to record on film; poets and writers Countee Cullen, Sterling Brown, and Oscar Micheaux; and her lifelong acquaintance with Langston Hughes." "Begin with her birth at the beginning of the Harlem Renaissance. Grow up with her during the Great Depression, which, in spite of its negative effects, still allowed many joys of a Thirties childhood. Laugh...
Kivikehä
Joku tahtoo Ruth Gallowayn muistavan ensimmäisen tapauksensa. Mutta miksi? Mystinen kehä marskimaalla, ihmisluut, rikokset ja rakkaus.

Kaikki tuntuu viittaavan heidän ensimmäiseen yhteiseen tapaukseensa 10 vuotta aikaisemmin. Jonkinlainen ympyrä on sulkeutumas...
Introduction to Stochastic Integration
A highly readable introduction to stochastic integration and stochastic differential equations, this book combines developments of the basic theory with applications. It is written in a style suitable for the text of a graduate course in stochastic calculus, following a course in probability. Using the modern approach, the stochastic integral is defined for predictable integrands and local martingales; then It’s change of variable formula is developed for continuous martingales. Applications include a characterization of Brownian motion, Hermite polynomials of martingales, the Feynman–Kac functional and the Schrödinger equation. For Brownian motion, the topics of local time, reflected B...
