Sixty Years of Airfix Models

Sixty Years of Airfix Models
Jeremy Brook, "Sixty Years of Airfix Models"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1847979750 | EPUB | pages: 176 | 65.6 mb
Airfix has been at the forefront of the model industry since 1955 when the first Airfix aircraft kit appeared in UK branches of Woolworth's. The kits were made to a constant scale and covered a wide variety of subjects, from aircraft to birds and from tanks to dinosaurs. In 1981 the famous London-based company closed down and only the kits survived intact. For the next twenty-five years Airfix was run by Palitoy and later Humbrol, but suffered from a lack of investment. In 2006, Hornby Hobbies Ltd, the train and Scalextric manufacturer, bought the ailing company and transformed it. Money and resources were ploughed into the range, and today Airfix releases around twenty new kits per year, designed to an incredibly high standard. The old kits of the 1950s and 1960s are gradually being replaced by new state-of-the-art tooling, all bearing that most prestigious name - Airfix. Published to coincide with the sixtieth anniversary of the first Airfix aircraft kit, Sixty Years of Airfix Models, tells the full story, year by year, of the company and its products.

Sixties Europe

Sixties Europe
Timothy Scott Brown, "Sixties Europe "
English | ISBN: 1107122384 | 2020 | 250 pages | PDF | 7 MB
Sixties Europe examines the border-crossing uprisings of the 1960s in Europe on both sides of the Cold War divide. Placing European developments within a global context formed by Third World liberation struggles and Cold War geopolitics, Timothy Scott Brown highlights the importance of transnational exchanges across bloc boundaries. New Left ideas and cultural practices easily crossed bloc boundaries, but Brown demonstrates that the 1960s in Europe did not simply unfold according to a normative western model. Everywhere, innovations in the arts and popular culture synergized radical politics as advocates of workers' democracy emerged to pursue longstanding demands predating the Cold War divide. Tracing the development of a distinctive blend of cultural and political activism across diverse national settings, Sixties Europe examines an important, historically-recent attempt to address unresolved questions about human social organization that remain relevant in the present, and it offers an original history of Europe across a transformative decade.

Singing The First Art

Singing The First Art
Singing: The First Art by Dan H. Marek
English | December 28, 2006 | ISBN: 0810857111 | True EPUB | 264 pages | 9.6 MB
The Italian singing technique Bel Canto instructs, "He who knows how to breathe and how to pronounce, knows how to sing." Singing: The First Art incorporates the techniques of Bel Canto along with those of masters like Berton Coffin and Manuel Garcia to promote and facilitate vocal excellence. Many concepts are described, from correct posture and alignment to improving and maintaining proper breathing, from good pronunciation and diction to producing an even, pure tone, and from vocal ranges to singing within and smoothly shifting between vocal registers. Mannes Vocal Faculty member Dan H. Marek effectively breaks down these complicated concepts with clear exercises, helping the vocal student to achieve freedom and complete control over his or her instrument.

Signal Integrity Characterization Techniques

Signal Integrity Characterization Techniques
Signal Integrity Characterization Techniques By Mike Resso, Eric Bogatin
2009 | 762 Pages | ISBN: 1931695938 | PDF | 10 MB
Today's emerging high-speed digital applications require a special kind of design engineer who understands the subtle signal integrity issues at hand. Although a classical electrical and computer engineering education is helpful, it is the high-frequency microwave effects that normally cause the most problems within telecommunications and computer systems, channels, and components. Reflections from impedance discontinuities, crosstalk, intra-line skew, and a multitude of other problems can immediately stop a system from working properly. Clearly, there is a gap in the college electrical engineering courses between the traditional digital and microwave curricula. This is why learning never stops for signal integrity engineers. This book addresses this gap with a focus on a practical and intuitive understanding of signal integrity effects within the data transmission channel. High-speed interconnects such as connectors, printed circuit boards (PCBs), cables, integrated circuit (IC) packages, and backplanes are critical elements of differential channels that must be designed using today's most powerful analysis and characterization tools. Both measurements and simulation must be done on the device under test, and both activities must yield data that correlates with each other. Most of this book focuses on real-world applications of signal integrity measurements.

Shinto At the Fountainhead of Japan

Shinto At the Fountainhead of Japan
Shinto: At the Fountainhead of Japan By Jean Herbert
2010 | 624 Pages | ISBN: 0415593484 | PDF | 6 MB
Shinto, the national indigenous religion of Japan has supplied Japan with the basic structure of its mentality and behaviour. Although its classical texts have been translated into English this volume was the first major study of this important religion. The book is a complete picture of Shinto, its history and internal organization, its gods and mythology, its temples and priests, its moral and worship. The volume also describes the metaphysics, mystic and spiritual disciplines and overall is one of the most authentic and authoritative surveys of Shinto of the twentieth century.
