Go beyond the bottle and step inside the minds- and vines- of Virginia's burgeoning wine industry in this groundbreaking volume. Join grape grower and industry insider Walker Elliott Rowe as he guides you through some of the top vineyards and wineries in the Old Dominion. Rowe explores the minds of pioneering winemakers and vineyard owners, stitches together an account of the wine industry's foundation in Virginia, from Jamestown to Jefferson to Barboursville, and uncovers the fascinating missing chapter in Virginia wine history. As the Philip Carter Winery's motto explains, 'Before there was Jefferson, there was Carter.'

Rowe goes behind the scenes to interview migrant workers who toil daily in the vineyards, makes the rounds in Richmond with an industry lobbyist and talks shop with winemakers on the science and techniques that have helped put the Virginia wine industry on the map. Also included are twenty-four stunning color photographs from professional photographer Jonathan Timmes and a foreword by noted wine journalist Richard Leahy.

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Multimodal Learning for Clinical Decision Support, ML-CDS 2021, held in conjunction with the 24th International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2021, in Strasbourg, France, in October 2021. The workshop was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.The 10 full papers presented at ML-CDS 2021 were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The ML-CDS papers discuss machine learning on multimodal data sets for clinical decision support and treatment planning.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Workshop on Multiscale Multimodal Medical Imaging, MMMI 2019, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2019 in Shenzhen, China, in October 2019. The 13 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 18 submissions. The MMMI workshop aims to advance the state of the art in multi-scale multi-modal medical imaging, including algorithm development, implementation of methodology, and experimental studies. The papers focus on medical image analysis and machine learning, especially on machine learning methods for data fusion and multi-score learning.

Literary Illumination examines the relationship between literature and artificial illumination, demonstrating that developments of lighting technology during the nineteenth century definitively altered the treatment of light as symbol, metaphor and textual motif. Correspondingly, the book also engages with the changing nature of darkness, and how the influence of artificial light altered both public perceptions of, and behaviour within, darkness, as well as examining literary chiaroscuros. Within each of four main chapters dedicated to the analysis of a single dominant light source in the long nineteenth-century - firelight, candlelight, gaslight, and electric light - the author considers the phenomenological properties of the light sources, and where their presence would be felt most strongly in the nineteenth century, before collating a corpus of texts for each light source and environment.

This is a new release of the original 1938 edition.
