Medieval and Early Modern Philosophy

The manner in which philosophy was practised in the Middle Ages was highly variagated. Until now, historiography has largely focused on the canonical genres of commentaries and treatises. This volume is devoted to another and fundamental type of medieval philosophical practice and demonstrates that the so-called sophismatic practice and literature, largely neglected to this day, had a significant influence on scholastic philosophical thought.

The Best Decisions You'll Ever Make

Build digital electronics from the ground up-and take it all the way to practical circuits you can use.This book guides you through the core principles of digital technology with a strongly hands-on approach. You'll begin with the essentials: signals, devices for working with them, and what "logic&nbsp;0" and "logic&nbsp;1" mean in real hardware. Simple demonstration setups made from easy-to-find parts (LEDs, diodes, resistors, switches) help you see how logic behaves, making the theory click before you move on.From there, you'll explore a wide range of logic elements and how they're implemented, including classic logic families such as TTL and CMOS. The fundamentals section covers the building blocks of digital systems: flip-flops, Schmitt triggers, registers, counters and dividers, encoders/ decoders, multiplexers/demultiplexers, plus A/D and D/A conversion and timing circuits.Next, the book invites you into "new&nbsp;ideas" in digital electronics-universal logic elements, unconventional approaches (including thyristor-based and fractional logic), and creative logic functions that can inspire original designs.Finally, a large, well-organized collection of application circuits turns knowledge into projects: electronic switches and selectors, pulse generators, PWM regulators, frequency multipliers/dividers, phase shifters, and digital filters.Study it deeply, and you'll gain not only understanding-but the ability to design and debug digital circuits independently.

Bear's World

This companion title to Natalia Shaloshvili’s award-winning book Bear is a funny and comforting take on how to cope with constant worrying. With a little help from his friend Duck, Bear finds that even when his biggest (cookie-related!) worries do come true, it’s not the end of the world. &nbsp; At first, Bear is happily munching his cookie, until a thought creeps in: what if it’s the last cookie? When this turns out to be true, he sets off for the shops – and his worries mount and mount. He worries about missing the bus . . . and it leaves without him. He worries he’ll get lost . . . and gets lost. By the time he finds the cookie queue, he’s at the very back;¿and his worst worry comes true. The very last cookie goes . . . to Duck!&nbsp; But just when Bear thinks his worst fears have been realised, Duck gently shows him that worries don’t have to end in disaster. By sharing his cookie and reminding Bear that ‘what ifs’ can lead to happy endings too, Duck helps his friend see that things often turn out better than expected.&nbsp; Complete with Natalia Shaloshvili’s expressive, playful illustrations and a story that balances humour with warmth, Bear Worries captures the familiar experience of children (and adults) whose imaginations run away with them. Both entertaining and reassuring, this picture book is the perfect springboard for conversations about anxiety, resilience and friendship.&nbsp; Whether shared at storytime, used in classrooms or given as a thoughtful gift, Bear Worries is an essential addition to every child’s bookshelf. It offers the reminder that no worry is too big when faced together.&nbsp;&nbsp;
