Book excerpt: Amelia Cole―Lia for short―is one of the first women studying abroad at Oxford University in the 1920s. Finally free from her overbearing Brooklyn parents, she finds a welcome sense of independence in British college life. Lia quickly falls for Scarlett Daniels, an aspiring actress and hardheaded protester. Scarlett introduces her to an exciting gender-equality movement with high stakes. But when their secret love clashes with political uprising, their relationship is one of the casualties. Years later, Lia’s only memories of Scarlett are obscured by the glossy billboards she sees advertising the actress’s new films. But when a mysterious letter surfaces, she is immediately thrown back into their unsettled romance. Lia’s travels span oceans and continents in her search for Scarlett. Spread across time and place, their story is one of desire, adventure, and ultimately, devotion. Lia will stop at nothing to win Scarlett back, but she soon realizes that uncovering lost love might not be attainable after all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaining full "voice" in your writing and knowing how to use it, like a singer, is absolutely essential. This book was born in writing classes where, with early encouragement, writers soon found a "voice." The book took form as I discovered how that was happening. I was determined to help bring these writers to full voice. First, they had to find a personally invested subject. So I asked them to keep a journal/notebook of their own, and to write down whatever came to mind with feeling, just that: memories of recent or past happenings, random thoughts-and images of any sort, including imaginations and dreams. What came with feeling came with voice-raw, refined, soulful, sarcastic, ironic, insightful-and true. The pleasure of voice led naturally to the pleasure of detailed description, which led to dramatic monologues, dialogues, sketches, narratives, and reflections. Exploring these descriptions for meaning led to the pleasure (sometimes pain) of discovery, and of developing meaning further with memoirs and personal essays. I structured the book using this sequence-voice to personal essay, which had developed naturally. And added a chapter on modern style.As they wrote, these writers found a natural-modern-style of their own that cleared a path for detailed description, narration, and for thinking things through. Some of the best of these writings profusely illustrate this book. Chapter 8 explores modern style, the cumulative sentence in particular, a style developed by outstanding writers of the past 100 years, among them, Hemingway, Faulkner, Steinbeck, Eudora Welty, and Rachel Carson. Though this is a book about writing, it "doesn't just focus on grammar and style," but "actually tells people how to go about writing," as one reviewer wrote. In all her years as a book publisher, she wishes that she had known about this book in order to "recommend it to the zillions of folks who wanted me to tell them how to write."

Book excerpt: A human-centric guide to solving complex problems in engineering management, from sizing teams to handling technical debt. There’s a saying that people don’t leave companies, they leave managers. Management is a key part of any organization, yet the discipline is often self-taught and unstructured. Getting to the good solutions for complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams—and, ultimately, between the success and failure of companies. Will Larson’s An Elegant Puzzle focuses on the particular challenges of engineering management—from sizing teams to handling technical debt to performing succession planning—and provides a path to the good solutions. Drawing from his experience at Digg, Uber, and Stripe, Larson has developed a thoughtful approach to engineering management for leaders of all levels at companies of all sizes. An Elegant Puzzle balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in.

Download or read book Modern Fortran written by Milan Curcic and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-10-07 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Fortran teaches you to develop fast, efficient parallel applications using twenty-first-century Fortran. In this guide, you’ll dive into Fortran by creating fun apps, including a tsunami simulator and a stock price analyzer. Filled with real-world use cases, insightful illustrations, and hands-on exercises, Modern Fortran helps you see this classic language in a whole new light. Summary Using Fortran, early and accurate forecasts for hurricanes and other major storms have saved thousands of lives. Better designs for ships, planes, and automobiles have made travel safer, more efficient, and less expensive than ever before. Using Fortran, low-level machine learning and deep learning libraries provide incredibly easy, fast, and insightful analysis of massive data. Fortran is an amazingly powerful and flexible programming language that forms the foundation of high performance computing for research, science, and industry. And it's come a long, long way since starting life on IBM mainframes in 1956. Modern Fortran is natively parallel, so it's uniquely suited for efficiently handling problems like complex simulations, long-range predictions, and ultra-precise designs. If you're working on tasks where speed, accuracy, and efficiency matter, it's time to discover—or re-discover—Fortran.. About the technology For over 60 years Fortran has been powering mission-critical scientific applications, and it isn't slowing down yet! Rock-solid reliability and new support for parallel programming make Fortran an essential language for next-generation high-performance computing. Simply put, the future is in parallel, and Fortran is already there. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.

Download or read book Gender and Power in Strength Sports written by Noelle K. Brigden and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores strength sports as a site of political contestation and a platform for insurgent gender practices. It contributes to our understanding of key themes in the study of sport, such as feminism, power, the body and identity. Drawing together interdisciplinary work spanning political science, sociology, gender studies, and biological and cultural anthropology, the book argues that in the face of ongoing embodied precarity, strength sports have become a complex form of both resistance to, and reproduction of, patriarchy. This argument also challenges traditional understandings and definitions of “strength.” Covering recreational-level participation and elite athletics, across experiential/individual, local, national, transnational, and global scales, the book explores diverse topics such as the pregnant strength athlete, the status of trans women in strength sports, and the gendered dimensions of online fitness communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. In so doing, it traces power dynamics and the interplay among multiple oppressions. Showcasing important empirical and activist research, this book is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in women’s sport, women’s studies, gender studies, the sociology of sport, strength and conditioning, feminist politics, or cultural studies.
