Instrumentation Reference Book
The discipline of instrumentation has grown appreciably in recent years because of advances in sensor technology and in the interconnectivity of sensors, computers and control systems. This 4e of the Instrumentation Reference Book embraces the equipment and systems used to detect, track and store data related to physical, chemical, electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of materials, systems and operations. While traditionally a key area within mechanical and industrial engineering, understanding this greater and more complex use of sensing and monitoring controls and systems is essential for a wide variety of engineering areas--from manufacturing to chemical processing to aerospace o...

Standardization of Work Measurement. Volume 10, Universal, (Common to Two Or More Occupations).
This volume of Universal Standard Time Data is one of eleven volumes included in DWMSTDP. It is termed "Universal" because it provides a single DOD source for standard time data elements which can be used in the development of labor standards in several occupation categories. This publication applies to all military services and defense agencies. The data contained herein will be used to the maximum extent possible in the development of labor performance standards. The Universal Standard Time Data contained in this volume are to be applied in accordance with the general instructions contained in the Basic Volume and the specific instructions contained in this volume. All newly developed or existing Universal Standard Time Data elements not now included herein should be submitted with back-up motion pattern analysis to the Defense Industrial Resources Support off ice (DIRSO), for review, coordination, and inclusion in the updating changes to this volume.

Handbook of Black Librarianship
Winner of the BCALA 2025 Literary Award for Outstanding Contribution to Publishing As Dr. Josey and Ms. DeLoach wrote in their Introduction to the second edition of The Handbook of Black Librarianship: “In designing the second edition of The Handbook of Black Librarianship, the editors felt that this work should be a reference tool related to the various aspects of African Americans in librarianship and their work in libraries.” That first edition covered issues faced by black library professionals in the various fields of librarianship; organizations formed; black library collections and books; resources and other areas of progress. The second edition, published twenty-three years later...
Representing Childhood and Atrocity
Atrocity presents a problem to the writer of children's literature. To represent events of such terrible magnitude and impersonal will as the Holocaust, the transatlantic slave trade, or the Rwandan genocide such that they fit into a three-act structure with a comprehensible moral and a happy ending is to do a disservice to the victims. Yet to confront children with the fact of widescale violence without resolution is to confront them with realities that may be emotionally disturbing and even damaging. Despite these challenges, however, there exists a considerable body of work for and about children that addresses atrocity. To examine the ways in which writers and artists have attempted to address children's experience of atrocity, this collection brings together original essays by an international group of scholars working in the fields of child studies, children's literature, comics studies, education, English literature, and Holocaust, genocide, and memory studies. It covers a broad geographical range and includes works by established authors and emerging voices.
Marxism and Feminism
Global events, from economic crisis to social unrest and militarization, disproportionately affect women. Yet around the world it is also women who are leading the struggle against oppression and exploitation. In light of renewed interest in Marxist theory among many women activists and academics, Marxism and Feminism presents a contemporary and accessible Marxist–feminist analysis on a host of issues. It reassesses previous debates and seeks to answer pressing questions of how we should understand the relationship between patriarchy and capitalism, and how we can envision a feminist project which emancipates both women and society. With contributions from both renowned scholars and new voices, Marxism and Feminism is set to become the foundational text for modern Marxist-feminist thought.
