This book is a text for graduate or undergraduate students in civil and agricultural engineering and hydrologic science and an excellent source for fundamental principles of open channel hydraulics.From the Table of Contents: Chapter 1 explains the types of flow encountered in open channels are classified with respect to time, space, viscosity, density, and gravity. Chapter 2 discusses the application of the law of conservation of energy to open-channel flows. Chapter 3 considers the application of the law of conservation of momentum to open-channel flow. Chapter 4 defines uniform flow and dev

Hilary Putnam has been at the center of contemporary debates about the nature of the mind and of its access to the world, about language and its relation to reality, and many other metaphysical and epistemological issues. In this book he turns to pragmatism - and confronts the teachings of James, Peirce, Dewey, and Wittgenstein - not solely out of an interest in theoretical questions, but above all to respond to the questions of whether it is possible to find an alternative to corrosive moral skepticism, on the one hand, and to moral authoritarianism on the other.

Much of the innovative programming that powers the Internet, creates operating systems, and produces software is the result of "open source" code, that is, code that is freely distributed--as opposed to being kept secret--by those who write it. Leaving source code open has generated some of the most sophisticated developments in computer technology, including, most notably, Linux and Apache, which pose a significant challenge to Microsoft in the marketplace. As Steven Weber discusses, open source’s success in a highly competitive industry has subverted many assumptions about how busine
