Eco-Resorts is a design guide for low impact, environmentally friendly tourist resorts in the tropics. The book is the first to offer architects practical, detailed guidance in developing resort buildings that work with a tropical climate and meet the needs and expectations of the client and building inhabitants. The book includes both architectural design and material solutions, supported by theoretical principles, to present a sustainable approach to resort design. It demonstrates that tropical resort buildings do not necessarily require large energy input, in compliance with green building standards. Case studies show how principles of sustainable design have been successfully applied in tropical environments. * Written by an industry insider with practical design experience, knowledge and expertise. * Demonstrates design practices related to site planning and layout, and re-assesses best practices for a tropical environment, allowing architects to apply design principles to their own projects. * Includes international case studies from several countries to illustrate best practice from a variety of tropical climate destinations around the world. Z (Zbigniew) Bromberek, PhD, is an architect educated and registered in Poland, and postgraduate-educated and residing in Australia. Z has been practising and teaching architecture for nearly 30 years. He has been involved and associated with various educational institutions and professional organizations in a number of countries around the world.

He was also the President of the Architectural Science Association ANZAScA for three consecutive terms in 2000-05. Z's major research interests include design-environment interaction, low-impact architecture and re-integration of architecture as an expression of a multi-disciplinary approach to design. * Case studies from the US, South America, Africa, Asia and Australasia illustrate international and relevant best practice in resort design* Gives practical guidance on all aspects of designing a low impact tourist resort, with particular focus on climatic issues* Author offers industry insider knowledge, due to his many years' relevant experience in architectural practice designing sustainable resorts for the tropical climates

This unique volume, organized alphabetically by country, provides a current overview of the general geology of Europe and Asia, excluding the Arab countries and Israel. Articles primarily contain information about the stratigraphy, structure, tectonics and natural resources of each country, as well as a history of geological exploration and other issues unique to each country. Additional articles cover international subjects such as Europe, Asia, the Alps, Caucasus, Himalayas and Tien Shan mountains. Many articles are new syntheses, e.g. those on Iceland, Burma and the Philippines; some are first-time descriptions in English, e.g. those on Estonia, Moldova, Bosnia and Turkmenistan; others are published for the first time ever in any language e.g. those articles on Italy, Korea and Vietnam. Each entry is typically written by a native geologist or a geologist with extensive experience in the region, and entries include representative figures illustrating main geologic features and a selected bibliography of relevant publications generally accessible in libraries. Articles are written assuming some general geological background. The Encyclopedia will serve as a valuable source book for libraries, and will be a key reference for academic and professional personnel in industrial exploration firms and governmental agencies, as well as for university students.

... Read more
Testing and Assessment in Translation and Interpreting Studies examines issues of measurement that are essential to translation and interpreting. Conceptualizing testing both as a process and a product, the collection of papers explores these issues across languages and settings (including university classrooms, research projects, the private sector, and professional associations). The authors have approached their chapters from different perspectives using a variety of methods, some focusing on very specific variables, and others providing a much broader overview of the issues at hand. Chapters range from a discussion of the measurement of text cohesion in translation; the measurement of interactional competence in interpreting; the use of a particular scale to measure interpreters’ renditions to the application of a specific approach to grading or general program assessment (such as interpreter or translator certification at the national level or program admissions processes). These studies point to the need for greater integration of research and practice in the specific area of testing and assessment and are a welcome addition to the field.

What can Russian images and objects—a tsar’s crown, a provincial watercolor album, the Soviet Pioneer Palace—tell us about the Russian people and their culture?This wide-ranging book is the first to explore the visual culture of Russia over the entire span of Russian history, from ancient Kiev to contemporary, post-Soviet society. Illustrated with more than one hundred diverse and fascinating images, the book examines the ways that Russians have represented themselves visually, understood their visual environment, and used visual images in social and political contexts. Expert contributors discuss images and objects from all over the Russian/Soviet empire, including consumer goods, architectural monuments, religious icons, portraits, news and art photography, popular prints, films, folk art, and more.Each of the concise and accessible essays in the volume offers a fresh interpretation of Russian cultural history. Putting visuality itself in focus as never before, Picturing Russia adds an entirely new dimension to the study of Russian literature, history, art, and culture. The book enriches our understanding of visual documents and shows the variety of ways they serve as far more than mere illustration.

... Read more
Dance 2wice is a collection of unique photographic essays dedicated to contemporary dance, distilled from the pages of the celebrated interdisciplinary arts journal 2wice. The images explore the dynamic dialogue between performance and photography and bring together the talent of some the world's most respected dancers, choreographers, and photographers. In these carefully conceived collaborations, the transitory art of such key contemporary dance figures as Merce Cunningham, Mark Morris, Paul Taylor, and Karole Armitage is vividly captured: The pages become the stage for beautifully conceived performances, intriguing ideas, and intimate portraits. Founded in 1997, 2wice magazine is a publication that evolved out of the magazines Dance Ink and Ink, now no longer published. The publication, edited by New York-based founder and arts patron Patsy Tarr and designed and co-edited by Pentagram designer J. Abbott Miller, has been honoured with numerous awards and was named "Magazine of the Year" by the Society of Publication Designers. Each issue focuses on a specific theme, but the broad range of material brought together in its pages shares a focus on issues of the body: its movement, its fashions, and the representations we create of ourselves and others. 2wice is a biannual journal of visual and performing arts, presenting a combination of the most original design, photography, dance, fashion, and art being created today. It is produced with the unusual support of a non-profit foundation whose mission is to document the ephemeral art of performance and to further the study and appreciation of the visual arts. The award-winning magazine aims to be a kind of curated collection, a printed exhibition that uses words, images, and design to consider a different theme for each issue. This book, Dance 2wice, focuses on the magazine's continuous celebration of modern dance by compiling the most memorable photographic essays commissioned and published since the publication's inception in 1997. These provocative images, most in colour, feature some of the most influential and exciting dancers, choreographers, and performance artists in the world, captured by the artistic lenses of various leading photographers. Unmediated by the presence of an audience and the pressures of live performance, these collaborations brought about unusually intimate and original images of contemporary dance, and are reproduced here in book form for the first time. From the wit of Mark Morris to the elegance of Merce Cunningham and his company, to the energy of Karole Armitage, Dance 2wice presents a rare collection of images that exist at the intersection of contemporary dance, photography, and design.

Bridging the gap between information security and strategic planningThis publication is a reflection of the author's firsthand experience as an information security consultant, working for an array of clients in the private and public sectors. Readers discover how to work with their organizations to develop and implement a successful information security plan by improving management practices and by establishing information security as an integral part of overall strategic planning.The book starts with an overview of basic concepts in strategic planning, information technology strategy, and information security strategy. A practical guide to defining an information security strategy is then provided, covering the "nuts and bolts" of defining long-term information security goals that effectively protect information resources. Separate chapters covering technology strategy and management strategy clearly demonstrate that both are essential, complementary elements in protecting information.Following this practical introduction to strategy development, subsequent chapters cover the theoretical foundation of an information security strategy, including:* Examination of key enterprise planning models that correspond to different uses of information and different strategies for securing information* Review of information economics, an essential link between information security strategy and business strategy* Role of risk in building an information security strategyTwo separate case studies are developed, helping readers understand how the development and implementation of information security strategies can work within their own organizations.This is essential reading for information security managers, information technology executives, and consultants. By linking information security to general management strategy, the publication is also recommended for nontechnical executives who need to protect the value and security of their organization's information.
