Books like Hidden realities, lost civilizations, and beings from other worlds by Jerome Clark

A thrilling exploration of the cosmos, brilliantly explained by a popular science master.

A young girl and her debaser team member find themselves involved in a government conspiracy, involving aliens and UFOs, after a series of plane crashes.

A fascinating exploration of the hidden instincts behind consumer behavior through the lens of evolutionary psychology.

A provocative exploration of recent deep–space discoveries that challenge longstanding cosmological principles.

Robert Charroux compiles his worldwide investigations, from Bolivia to Easter Island, into a compilation of ancient mysteries. He argues that many modern scientific wonders were known to ancient masters and that a hidden society still influences select initiates.

Evans' collection vividly depicts the science of forensics, featuring notorious cases and the latest techniques.

'This is a revealing and intellectually challenging way head for a branch of human geography that has fallen behind other branches in recent decades. The book and the series that it launches deserve more than the usual attention given to new texts for undergraduates. Many of their teachers should find the series interesting, stimulating and even provocative.' - Geography As a geographical introduction to cultural studies, this innovative book marks a significant departure from traditional approaches to cultural geography. Instead of emphasising the evolution of cultural landscapes and the interpretation of past environments, it draws on the literature of contemporary social and cultural theory, focusing on urban as well as rural environments, and on popular culture as well as on vernacular architecture, folk styles and the culture of the elite. `Maps of Meaning' refers to the way we make sense of the world, rendering our geographical experience intelligible, attaching value to the environment and investing the material world with symbolic significance. The book introduces notions of space and place, exploring culture's geographies as well as the geography of culture. It outlines the field of cultural politics, employing concepts of ideology, hegemony and resistance to show how dominant ideologies are contested through unequal relations of power. Culture emerges as a domain in which economic and political contradictions are negotiated and resolved. After a critical review of the work of Carl Sauer and the `Berkeley School' of cultural geography, the book considers the work of such cultural theorists as Raymond Williams, Clifford Geertz and Stuart Hall. It develops a materialist approach to the geographical study of culture, exemplified by studies of class and popular culture, gender and sexuality, race and racism, language and ideology. The book concludes by proposing a new agenda for cultural geography, including a discussion of current debates about post-modernism.

A Landmark text thoroughly updated, including a new CD As digital devices continue to be produced at increasingly lower costs and with higher speeds, the need for effective electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) design practices has become more critical than ever to avoid unnecessary costs in bringing products into compliance with governmental regulations. The Second Edition of this landmark text has been thoroughly updated and revised to reflect these major developments that affect both academia and the electronics industry. Readers familiar with the First Edition will find much new material, including: Latest U.S. and international regulatory requirements PSpice used throughout the textbook to simulate EMC analysis solutions Methods of designing for Signal Integrity Fortran programs for the simulation of Crosstalk supplied on a CD OrCAD(r) PSpice(r) Release 10.0 and Version 8 Demo Edition software supplied on a CD The final chapter on System Design for EMC completely rewritten The chapter on Crosstalk rewritten to simplify the mathematics Detailed, worked-out examples are now included throughout the text. In addition, review exercises are now included following the discussion of each important topic to help readers assess their grasp of the material. Several appendices are new to this edition including Phasor Analysis of Electric Circuits, The Electromagnetic Field Equations and Waves, Computer Codes for Calculating the Per-Unit-Length Parameters and Crosstalk of Multiconductor Transmission Lines, and a SPICE (PSPICE) tutorial. Now thoroughly updated, the Second Edition of Introduction to Electromagnetic Compatibility remains the textbook of choice for university/college EMC courses as well as a reference for EMC design engineers. An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department.
