Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It
contains classical literature works from over two thousand years.
Most of these titles have been out of print and off the bookstore
shelves for decades. The book series is intended to preserve the
cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical
literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.
This book presents selected work from the Florence Heri-Tech, a
conference focused on the use of innovative technologies and
methods for analyzing, managing, and preserving cultural heritage.
This book presents chapters on the chemical and physical
advancement in the development of new materials and methods for the
conservation and restoration of cultural heritage. It also covers
trends in conservation and restoration technology: biotechnology,
nanotechnology, tailored materials, and physical technologies. The
reader also finds information on methods and instruments for the
conservation diagnosis and treatments.
Explores key challenges and dilemmas of service responses to men's
domestic violence by interrogating the discursive constructions of
gender and violence that underpin these. Reflects upon domestic
violence systems, services and responses in ways that reverse the
convention of applying theory to practice by, instead, focusing on
the theorisation of practice. Promotes difficult conversations that
challenge the influence of dominant gendered discourse on efforts
to address domestic violence. Considers new approaches to
conceptualising the problem of domestic violence in research,
policy, and practice.
In Understanding Violence and Abuse, Heather Fraser and Kate
Seymour examine violence and abuse from an anti-oppressive practice
perspective and make connections between interpersonal violence and
structural, institutional and cultural violence. Using case studies
from Canada, the U.K., the U.S., Australia, Bangladesh, India and
elsewhere, the authors discuss topics ranging from class
oppression, street violence, white privilege, war, shame,
Islamophobia and abuse in intimate relationships, as well as
introduce the core tenets of anti-oppressive social work practice.
They encourage readers to reflect upon hierarchies of identity and
difference in relation to the ways in which violence and abuse are
defined, understood and addressed. Further, they discuss several
responses to violence using an anti-oppressive framework.

This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third
International Conference on The Future of Heritage Science and
Technologies, Florence Heri-Tech 2022, held in Florence, Italy, in
May 2022. The 32 papers presented in this volume were thoroughly
reviewed and selected from 101 submissions. They are organized in
the topical sections on 3D reconstruction of tangible cultural
heritage and monitoring devices; IA and AR/VR based methods and
applications for CH; methods and systems for enhancing heritage
fruition and storytelling; virtual museums and virtual tours.
This book gathers a selection of contributions dealing with the
application of mechanical engineering for preserving and managing
cultural heritage. It covers advanced techniques for 3D survey,
modeling and simulation, reconstruction, data management as well as
advanced diagnostics and testing methods. It highlights strategies
to foster sustainability, inclusivity, energy saving and waste
reuse in preventive conservation of historical buildings and
sculptures, and large heritage sites. Based on contributions
presented at the 3rd Florence Heri-Tech International Conference,
held on May, 16-18, 2022, in Firenze, Italy, this book offers a
timely source of information concerning engineering methods in
heritage for both researchers and professionals in the field.
