Lives in Motion Celebrating Dance in Thailand

Lives in Motion Celebrating Dance in Thailand

Lives in Motion celebrates dance in Thailand focusing on the diversity of Thailand’s dance cultures and their place in today’s world. Giving voice to eminent artists and scholars on the complex roles that Thailand is pursuing for artful movement at home and abroad the book provides key perspectives on Thai dance traditions and practitioners. It explores the many forms and meanings in contemporary dance changing local traditions in the country the evolution of Thai dance on the global stage and hybrid features of the Thai dance world. The book examines how hybridity has been integral to dance cultures in Thailand and discusses how they have actively adapted and negotiated their knowledge in relation to modernity and globalization. Developing new models standards and sites for dance movement and theater dance in Thai has been advancing in innovative ways whether it is to include fresh forms of skilled bodily movement or to expand in new arenas like tourism and online platforms. Similarly old systems of training which included artists’ homes palaces and temples have been adapted into the new world of modern education media home schooling and new community rituals. A pioneering contribution on Thai performing arts this volume examines contemporary Thai dance cultures in the local national regional and global contexts. It will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of dance and performance studies cultural studies Southeast Asia studies and art. | Lives in Motion Celebrating Dance in Thailand

Elementary Vector Calculus and Its Applications with MATLAB Programming

Elementary Vector Calculus and Its Applications with MATLAB Programming

Sir Isaac Newton one of the greatest scientists and mathematicians of all time introduced the notion of a vector to define the existence of gravitational forces the motion of the planets around the sun and the motion of the moon around the earth. Vector calculus is a fundamental scientific tool that allows us to investigate the origins and evolution of space and time as well as the origins of gravity electromagnetism and nuclear forces. Vector calculus is an essential language of mathematical physics and plays a vital role in differential geometry and studies related to partial differential equations widely used in physics engineering fluid flow electromagnetic fields and other disciplines. Vector calculus represents physical quantities in two or three-dimensional space as well as the variations in these quantities. The machinery of differential geometry of which vector calculus is a subset is used to understand most of the analytic results in a more general form. Many topics in the physical sciences can be mathematically studied using vector calculus techniques. This book is designed under the assumption that the readers have no prior knowledge of vector calculus. It begins with an introduction to vectors and scalars and also covers scalar and vector products vector differentiation and integrals Gauss's theorem Stokes's theorem and Green's theorem. The MATLAB programming is given in the last chapter. This book includes many illustrations solved examples practice examples and multiple-choice questions. | Elementary Vector Calculus and Its Applications with MATLAB Programming

Questioning the Universe Concepts in Physics

Questioning the Universe Concepts in Physics

WINNER 2009 CHOICE AWARD OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC TITLE! The typical introduction to physics leaves readers with the impression that physics is about 30 different unconnected topics such as motion forces gravity electricity light heat energy and atoms. More often than not these readers are left to conclude that physics is mostly about boring lifeless numbers. Questioning the Universe: Concepts in Physics offers the nonscientist an alternative view: one that demonstrates how physics is perpetually evolving and shows how so many seemingly diverse concepts are intimately connected. In fact one could argue that the most important ideas in modern physics are all about unification and that these ideas are as fascinating as they are elegant. Physicists today believe that Mother Nature is remarkably efficient and requires only a relatively small number of laws to keep her universe in working order. We may not yet know all of these laws; but at the center of physics is a faith that she is indeed understandableand that someday we will see her full beauty. The purpose of this book is to tell readers the story of what we have learned about nature so far and how we have done it. Written to arouse curiosity this compelling and readable work: Delves into the most basic laws regarding motion and energy waves and particles Introduces modern theories including relativity quantum mechanics and particle physics Describes the key role played by that elemental building block the atom Discusses the evolution of the universe including the formation of stars and the mystery of dark matter and dark energy This book is not for those doing physics but is aimed at those who simply want to learn about physics so it requires only the most minimal math.

Acts Intentions and Moral Evaluation

Acts Intentions and Moral Evaluation

This book argues that the moral quality of an act comes from the agent’s inner states. By arguing for the indispensable relevance of intention in the moral evaluation of acts the book moves against a mainstream objective approach in normative ethics. It is commonly held that the intentions knowledge and volition of agents are irrelevant to the moral permissibility of their acts. This book stresses that the capacities of agency rather than simply the label agent must be engaged during an act if its moral evaluation is to be coherent. The author begins with an ontological argument that an act is a motion or a causing of change in something else. He argues that the source of an act’s moral meaning is in the agent: specifically what the agent if aware of relevant facts around her aims to accomplish. He then moves to a series of critical chapters that consider arguments for mainstream approaches to act evaluation including Thomson’s dismissal of the agent knowledge and volition requirements Scanlon’s arguments for a derivative relevance of intentions to permissibility Frowe’s causal roles of agents in the moral evaluation of acts and Bennett’s explicit defense of the objective approach. The book concludes by offering the author’s preferred replacement for the objective approach an Aristotelian-Thomist view of acts. Acts Intentions and Moral Evaluation will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working in ethics just war theory the ethics of self-defense and philosophy of action.

A Factor Model Approach to Derivative Pricing

A Factor Model Approach to Derivative Pricing

Written in a highly accessible style A Factor Model Approach to Derivative Pricing lays a clear and structured foundation for the pricing of derivative securities based upon simple factor model related absence of arbitrage ideas. This unique and unifying approach provides for a broad treatment of topics and models including equity interest-rate and credit derivatives as well as hedging and tree-based computational methods but without reliance on the heavy prerequisites that often accompany such topics. Key features A single fundamental absence of arbitrage relationship based on factor models is used to motivate all the results in the book A structured three-step procedure is used to guide the derivation of absence of arbitrage equations and illuminate core underlying concepts Brownian motion and Poisson process driven models are treated together allowing for a broad and cohesive presentation of topics The final chapter provides a new approach to risk neutral pricing that introduces the topic as a seamless and natural extension of the factor model approach Whether being used as text for an intermediate level course in derivatives or by researchers and practitioners who are seeking a better understanding of the fundamental ideas that underlie derivative pricing readers will appreciate the book‘s ability to unify many disparate topics and models under a single conceptual theme. James A Primbs is an Associate Professor of Finance at the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics at California State University Fullerton.
