From one of our preeminent neuroscientists: a landmark reflection that spans the biological and social sciences, offering a new way of understanding the origins of life, feeling, and culture. The Strange Order of Things is a pathbreaking investigation into homeostasis, the condition of that regulates human physiology within the range that makes possible not only the survival but also the flourishing of life. Antonio Damasio makes clear that we descend biologically, psychologically, and even socially from a long lineage that begins with single living cells; that our minds and cultures are linked by an invisible thread to the ways and means of ancient unicellular life and other primitive life-forms; and that inherent in our very chemistry is a powerful force, a striving toward life maintenance that governs life in all its guises, including the development of genes that help regulate and transmit life. In The Strange Order of Things, Damasio gives us a new way of comprehending the wo

The battleships of the Third Reich have been written about exhaustively, but there is little in English devoted to their Second Reich predecessors. This new book fills an important gap in the literature of the period by covering these German capital ships in detail and studying the full span of battleship development during this period. The book is arranged as a chronological narrative, with technical details, construction schedules, and ultimate fates tabulated throughout, thus avoiding the sometimes disjointed structure that can result from a class-by-class approach. Heavily illustrated with line drawings and photographs, many from German sources, the book offers readers a fresh visual look at these ships. A key objective of the book is to make available a full synthesis of the published fruits of archival research by German writers found in the pre-World War II books of Koop & Schmolke, Großmer's on the construction program of the dreadnaught era, Forstmeier & Breyer on Worl

《Spring Boot in Action》是一本專為熟悉 Spring Framework 的開發者所寫的實戰指南，聚焦於如何運用 Spring Boot 大幅簡化 Java 應用程式的開發流程。Spring Boot 以「約定優於設定」為核心理念，讓開發者跳過繁瑣的組態工作，快速啟動專案，將心力集中在應用程式的行為與商業邏輯上。作者 Craig Walls 以多年 Spring 開發與教學經驗，透過清楚且實用的範例，說明如何有效運用 Spring Boot 的自動組態機制，同時在需要時進行客製化調整。書中涵蓋測試、部署、Actuator 監控、命令列工具（CLI）、以及與 Groovy、Grails 的整合應用，完整呈現 Spring Boot 在實務開發中的優勢。本書內容務實、節奏明快，適合希望提升開發效率、減少設定負擔的 Java 與 Spring 開發者閱讀，是理解與上手 Spring Boot 的重要入門與進階參考。Although Spring Framework simplifies enterprise Java development, it can require a lot from developers in terms of framework configuration.

"The author provides unprecedented critical, interdisciplinary explorations of the complex dynamics and intersectionalities operating between disability and poverty in rural areas, an assumed relationship that is too often misunderstood. Reporting on long term ethnographic work in Guatemala and prioritising the voices, knowledge and narratives of disabled people and their families, Grech offers an incisive and refined critical analysis of the various complex barriers and interactions in the disability/poverty/rurality nexus encountered by what Grech calls 'disabled families'. The book opens up discussions on a broad range of themes traversing conceptual, spatial, historical, embodied, spiritual, racial, sexual and gendered terrains among others. It challenges and reframes established, often imposed discourses and practices, and contests issues of (re)presentation, Eurocentrism, and coloniality. Finally, it contributes new and uncharted reflections for further debate, which are indispen
