Agogic Maps

This book explores the value of the musical concept of "agogics" - the modification of regular rhythm to enhance expressive potential - in understanding urban spatial configurations within the current technological context and in developing urban maps that exploit sonic signals to create an open learning framework. The book starts by discussing the meaning and significance of agogics in the musical and artistic realm, with reference to the work of Adolphe Appia, Emile-Jaques Dalcroze, and Iannis Xenakis, among others. Its relevance to cartography and mapping is then examined, taking into account the contributions of Ian McHarg, Bill Hillier, Mark Shepard, and Robin Minard. The nature and value of agogic maps, for example in fostering awareness of place and effective organization of spatial development, are described in detail, with reference to case studies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Opatrovateľka - Marika Budayová

Kniha Opatrovateľka vznikla vyrozprávaním životných príbehov niekoľkých slovenských opatrovateliek. Úsmevné príhody s klientmi sa naozaj stali a niektoré z nich sa prihodili aj samotnej autorke, počas jej krátkeho pôsobenia v Rakúsku. Postavy a ich charaktery sú v príbehu skutočné, len podobnosť mien a prostredia je čisto náhodná.Vášeň, sex a pochybnosti...Skutočný príbeh o Slovenke, ktorá šla hľadať svoje šťastie do sveta, aby zistila, že ho má doma.Každá z nás zažila aspoň raz v živote ten pocit, že by najradšej odišla. Utiekla. Ďaleko od rodiny, denno-dennej rutiny, preč z nudného vzťahu.Tina – hlavná hrdinka príbehu si myslí, že s manželom vorkoholikom ju spája len sex. Cíti vyhorenie, práca ju nudí, dúfa že zmenou prostredia ujde tak trochu aj sama pred sebou. Riešenie vidí v úniku do cudziny, kde sa zamestná ako opatrovateľka. Ďaleko od starého života spoznáva nové lepšie veci, zrádza svoje zásady a ochutná zakázané ovocie. Vzrušenie a čaro neznámeho je silnejšie, ako zábrany a presvedčenie. Chvíle, ktoré jej znova vrátia chuť do života, až takmer prehliada skutočné šťastie pominú, keď si v dôležitej chvíli uvedomí, kde je jej miesto a kam naozaj patrí.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky slovenskýPočet strán 288Dátum uvedenia titulu 2019-04-10Rozmery 170x106x25Hmotnosť 229gTypPaperback

Saladin

Saladin, who united the Arabs and saved Islam from Christian crusaders in the 12th century, is the Islamic world’s preeminent hero. Ruthless in defence of his faith, brilliant in leadership, he also possessed qualities that won admiration from his Christian foes. He knew the limits of violence, showing such tolerance and generosity that many Europeans, appalled at the brutality of their own people, saw him as the exemplar of their own knightly ideals.But Saladin is far more than a historical hero. Builder, literary patron and theologian, he is a man for all times, and a symbol of hope for an Arab world once again divided, and once again wrestling with the problems of dealing with the ‘West’. In cities from Damascus to Cairo and beyond, to the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf, Saladin is central to Arab memories, sensibilities and the ideal of a unified Islamic state.In this authoritative biography, historian John Man brings Saladin and his world to life in vivid detail, exploring his legacy and its significance for the world today.
