System Engineering with SysML - Birgit Vogel-Heuser
Systemic thinking is required to design increasingly complex mechatronic systems. SySML is a description language that is tailored precisely to this purpose. Based on UML, it also enables the modelling of requirements, hardware and time behaviour in the context of both simulation and testing. A model-based engineering decision is expensive and risky, so efficient assessment of the suitability of SysML is critical to success, as is rapid familiarisation. The book and the accompanying digital material with the models in two modelling environments (EASystems and CoDeSys) enable a step-by-step, efficient introduction that extends to the various facets of more complex mechatronic production systems. The book plus material can be used both as a basis for courses, including exercises and interactive formats, and as a step-by-step introduction to more realistic models from the perspective of manufacturers of mechatronic systems through to production systems.

Human History on Drugs - Sam Kelly
A lively, hilarious, and entirely truthful look at the druggie side of history s most famous figures, including Shakespeare, Queen Victoria, and the Beatles, from debut author (and viral historical TikToker with over 100K followers) Sam Kelly.Did you know that Alexander the Great was a sloppy drunk, William Shakespeare was a stoner, and George Washington drank a spoonful of opium every night to staunch the pain from his fake teeth? Or how about the fact that China s first emperor, Qin Shi Huangdi, ingested liquid mercury in an (ironic) attempt to live forever, or that Alexander Shulgin, inventor of no less than 230 new psychedelic drugs, was an employee of the DEA? In Human History on Drugs, historian Sam Kelly introduces us to the history we weren t taught in school, offering up irreverent and hysterical commentary as he sheds light on some truly shocking aspects of the historical characters we only thought we knew. With chapters spanning from Ancient Greece ( The Oracle of Delphi Was Huffing Fumes ) and the Victorian Era ( Vincent van Gogh Ate Yellow Paint ) to Hollywood s Golden Age ( Judy Garland Was Drugged by Grown-Ups ) and modern times ( Carl Sagan Got Astronomically High ), Kelly s research spans all manner of eras, places, and, of course, drugs. History is rife with drug use and drug users, and Human History on Drugs takes us through those highs (pun intended) and lows on a wittily entertaining ride that uncovers their seriously unexpected impact on our past.

How Does Change Happen? - Sam Goncalves
Mass protests and direct action have been familiar tactics against the many crises of the 21st century. Though methods vary, there⠙s a collective longing for meaningful and transformative action. Some are deemed too weak, others too disruptive: from Instagram tiles to cans of soup thrown on famous paintings. Through conversations with activists and organisers, Sam Gonçalves recounts stories of protest and the fight for change, from a community of landless workers in Southern Brazil, to chefs unionising their workplace in Glasgow, Scotland. These narratives reveal the opportunities and challenges that are part of the difficult work of creating change, a wrestling with the question: how does change happen?Having a ⠘positive impact⠙ in the world is often relegated to the ⠘personal⠙, an individual endeavour. Gonçalves investigates that assumption and explores ways communities have resisted collectively, and fought against the individualising forces surrounding them.

The great-granddaughter of Mother Nature teams up with a squirrel to start the spring season in this first book in the charmingly whimsical chapter book series from bestselling and award-winning author Suzanne Selfors.Willow has agreed to house-sit while her grandmother, Mother Nature, is on vacation. Willow thinks it’s going to be as easy as watering a fern and feeding a cat, but when she arrives, she realizes her grandmother has left a long to-do list of difficult tasks like dusting the wings of a sleeping bat family, repairing the broken windows of a rabbit’s greenhouse, and ending winter. Ending winter? In her eagerness to take a vacation, Mother Nature forgot to catch the unruly North Wind for its long nap. So, even though it’s the first day of spring, the entire land is covered in ice and snow. If the snow doesn’t melt, allowing the spring grass to grow, the critters of the Quiet Woods will surely go hungry. With the help of Sam Squirrel and an elk prince named Errol, will Willow be able to catch the unruly North Wind to preserve the natural balance her grandmother entrusted her with?

The Security Principle - Frederic Gros
In The Security Principle, French philosopher Frédéric Gros takes a historical approach to the concept of security , looking at its evolution from the Stoics to the social network. With lucidity and rigour, Gros #39;s approach is fourfold, looking at security as a mental state, as developed by the Greeks; as an objective situation and absence of all danger, as prevailed in the Middle Ages; as guaranteed by the nation state and its trio of judiciary, police and military; and finally biosecurity , control, regulation and protection in the flux of contemporary society. In this deeply thought-provoking account, Gros’s exploration of security shines a light both on its past meanings as well as its present uses, exposing the contemporary abuses of security and the pervasiveness of it in everyday life in the Global North.

Fascinace džihádem - Gabriel Martinez-Gros
Esej francouzkého historika a odborníka na islám Gabriela Martineze-Grose pojednává o průniku radikální formy islámu do Evropy. Rozebírá příčiny tohoto jevu, hledá historické paralely a předkládá řešení. Ve své poslední knize Gabriel Martinez-Gros, francouzský historik a odborník na islám, formuluje originální a velmi znepokojivou hypotézu, která umožňuje nahlížet aktuální vlnu terorismu z nečekaného zorného úhlu, v nově uchopeném a rozšířeném historickém i demografickém kontextu. Současný svět, který autor charakterizuje jako západní imperiální říši, je zmítán všeobecnou pacifikací, chronickou fiskální krizi, individualismem bez solidarity. Vlažná vláda mírumilovných hodnot a odpor vůči násilí vede k odsunutí lokálních nábožensky motivovaných útoků do marginálních zón, z nichž solidární a velmi bojovné skupiny rozpoutávají proti imperiálním centrům nemilosrdný boj. Takovými skupinami jsou podle autora např. narkotrafikanti ve Střední a Jižní Americe, mafiánská uskupení v Evropě, na Rusi a v Číně. Mezi nimi mají pak význačné postavení islamisté z Al-Kajdy či nověji Islámského státu, zejména z toho důvodu, že na rozdíl od ostatních disponují jednoduchým a velmi koherentním diskurzem, který provokuje širokou odezvu a má na mnohé lidi na Západě, kteří hledají silné hodnoty (za něž stojí za to obětovat vlastní život) a transcendentální smysl života, fascinující účinek. Pronikání tohoto diskursu je posilováno paradoxním efektem západního imperialismu: jestliže se Západ v dnešní době nachází v pozici imperiálního ústupu a zdaleka již nevládne světu zcela volně dle své vůle, i nadále se zejména ve vlastním sebevědomí tématizuje v termínech jakoby tomu tak bylo a tedy vše, co se ve světě děje, nahlíží jako nutný důsledek západní politiky. Je zkrátka neschopen připustit, že jisté události jsou výsledkem činnosti jiných aktérů, jednajících dle zcela jiných logik, které se vymykají západnímu pojmovému uchopení a zařazení do Západem narýsovaných dějin. Západ se pak cítí vinen za vše, co se přihází: např. násilné revoluce a převraty v arabském světě musí (podle teorií třetího světa, které se rozvinuly v 50. a 60. letech) nutně být důsledkem někdejší koloniální politiky Západu v této oblasti. Zároveň přetrvává epistémická pýcha Západu: západní komentátoři jsou stále ještě přesvědčení, že vědí lépe, co se děje v hlavě Arabů, než Arabové sami a neberou je vážně. Přesvědčivost a schopnost fascinace islamistického diskurzu vyplývá z toho, že jde o jediný monoteismus, který předpisuje povinnost války v rámci náboženské praxe a je jediným proudem, který je schopen formulovat svoji ideologii ve vlastních termínech a z vlastních zdrojů, nezávisle na Západem psané historii. Je schopen rozvinout, nezávislou vizi světa a dějin. Daří se mu dokonce infiltrovat své termíny do diskursu svého protivníka a tím jej mást. Posun je přitom postupný a na Západě se mu nevěnuje dostatečná pozornost: ještě v případě Iránu a uchopení moci Chomejním se mluvilo o revoluci , jejímž plodem byla islámská republika , používaly se tedy termíny ze západního arsenálu porozumění historii. V případě Islámského státu se mluví o chalifátu a džihádu , přebírají se tedy již termíny původem z islámské civilizace, jejichž obsah a dosah západním komentátorům uniká, zatímco je naprosto zřejmý pro každého muslima.

A Philosophy of Walking - Frederic Gros
By walking, you escape from the very idea of identity, the temptation to be someone, to have a name and a history ... The freedom in walking lies in not being anyone; for the walking body has no history, it is just an eddy in the stream of immemorial life.In A Philosophy of Walking, a bestseller in France, leading thinker Frédéric Gros charts the many different ways we get from A to B-the pilgrimage, the promenade, the protest march, the nature ramble-and reveals what they say about us. Gros draws attention to other thinkers who also saw walking as something central to their practice. On his travels he ponders Thoreau #39;s eager seclusion in Walden Woods; the reason Rimbaud walked in a fury, while Nerval rambled to cure his melancholy. He shows us how Rousseau walked in order to think, while Nietzsche wandered the mountainside to write. In contrast, Kant marched through his hometown every day, exactly at the same hour, to escape the compulsion of thought. Brilliant and erudite, A Philosophy of Walking is an entertaining and insightful manifesto for putting one foot in front of the other.

Philosophy of Shame - Frederic Gros
Can shame become a source of political strength? Faced with injustice, growing inequality and systemic violence, we cry out in shame. We feel ashamed of obscene wealth amid wider deprivation. We feel ashamed of humanity for its ruthless and relentless exploitation of the earth.We feel ashamed of the racism and sexism that permeate society and our everyday lives. This difficult emotion is not just sadness or a withdrawal into oneself, nor is it a paralysing sense of inadequacy. As Frédéric Gros argues in A Philosophy of Shame, it arises when our perception of reality rejects passivity and resignation and instead embraces imagination.Shame thus becomes the expression of an anger that is a powerful, transformative force -one that assumes a radical character. In dialogue with authors such as Primo Levi, Annie Ernaux, Virginie Despentes and James Baldwin, Gros explores a concept that is still little understood in its anthropological, moral, psychological and political depths. Shame is a revolutionary sentiment because it lies at the foundation of any path of subjective recognition, transformation and struggle.

Dirty Dealing - Jeffrey Allan Grosso
A rollicking recounting of the landmark case a writer brought against Miramax, whom he accused of stealing his screenplay and turning it into the cult classic Rounders.When a young screenwriter goes online to check out the promotional website for a new poker movie called Rounders, he’s shocked to discover how similar it is to a screenplay he wrote a few years earlier and submitted to a number of studios. When he later sees the Miramax-produced film in theaters, he is astonished by the number of overlapping elements—the protagonist playing Texas Hold ’em to pay his way through college while deceiving the girlfriend who believes he’s quit, the loss of everything he has in a single hand of high-stakes Hold ’em, a character named “Worm,” and many other commonalities that form the foundation of what will become his lawsuit against Miramax. He leaves the theater that day feeling that not only has the studio stolen his script, but his life, which had encompassed years of professional poker playing that informed the screenplay he hoped would open the door to a writing career in Hollywood. Against all odds, he proceeds to take on Miramax and the Hollywood system with the help of an ingenious lawyer. Jeffrey Grosso simply has to prove how it could have happened and convince a judicial system that often favors studios over writers that he’s a victim of intellectual property theft, which results in a ten-year landmark legal battle against Hollywood’s most notorious studio. Part comic legal thriller, part nail-biting poker memoir, Dirty Dealing: Grosso v. Miramax—Waging War Against Harvey Weinstein, and the Screenplay that Changed Hollywood is the entertaining look at one man’s fight to get the credit he believes he deserves. Does he have a case or are the similarities just an illusion the mind plays on a creator? Perhaps there are only five stories in Hollywood, as his lawyer points out, and no idea is truly original. You be the judge.
