Closer to Antarctica than to Buenos Aires, the port town of
Ushuaia, Argentina is home to a national park as well as a museum
that is housed in the world's southernmost prison. Ushuaia's radial
panopticon operated as an experimental hybrid penal colony and
penitentiary from 1902 to 1947, designed to revolutionize modern
prisons globally. A Carceral Ecology offers the first comprehensive
study of this notorious prison and its afterlife, documenting how
the Patagonian frontier and timber economy became central to ideas
about labor, rehabilitation, and resource management. Mining the
records of penologists, naturalists, and inmates, Ryan C. Edwards
shows how discipline was tied to forest management, but also how
inmates gained situated geographical knowledge and reframed debates
on the regeneration of the land and the self. Bringing a new
imperative to global prison studies, Edwards asks us to rethink the
role of the environment in carceral practices as well as the impact
of incarceration on the natural world.
A critical appraisal of broadband systems for high-speed Internet
systems. It offers a demystifying overview of existing and future
mobile and fixed systems that use gigahertz or terahertz
frequencies, and serves as a reference for information on most
high-speed Internet systems that are currently in use or that will
come into use before 2015. Making extensive use of photographs of
actual systems, diagrams, and graphs depicting market developments
and important system characteristics, the book supplies real-world
information provided by commercial sources that helps the reader
understand the realm of broadband carriers and their technologies.
It also explains how these technologies interact using digital
signalling in gigahertz and terahertz frequencies.
In 1821, Augustin-Louis Cauchy (1789-1857) published a textbook,
the Cours d analyse, to accompany his course in analysis at the
Ecole Polytechnique. It is one of the most influential mathematics
books ever written. Not only did Cauchy provide a workable
definition of limits and a means to make them the basis of a
rigorous theory of calculus, but he also revitalized the idea that
all mathematics could be set on such rigorous foundations. Today,
the quality of a work of mathematics is judged in part on the
quality of its rigor, and this standard is largely due to the
transformation brought about by Cauchy and the Cours d analyse.
For this translation, the authors have also added commentary,
notes, references, and an index.
