Origins, invention, revision : studying the history of art and architecture.

New Haven : Yale University Press, 2016. Hardcover. Dustjacket. xvii,177 pp. Ills. 26 cm. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : as new. - One of the most distinguished scholars in the fields of architectural history and theory today, James Sloss Ackerman is best known for his work on Italian masters such as Palladio and Michelangelo. In this collection of essays, Ackerman offers insight into his formation and development as a scholar, as well as reflections on a range of topics. Concise, lucid, and original, this book presents deep syntheses alongside innovative approaches and a broadening geographical and chronological reach. Ackerman's enduring fascination with architecture was one unforeseen consequence of his military service in World War II, and the collection includes a revealing account of his part in the liberation of Milan as a soldier in the Fifth American Regiment. These essays represent a unique, personal journey—from the Italian Renaissance to the classical architecture of India and the work of Frank Gehry at the new museum of the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris.

Ackley, Clifford S.

Holland on paper in the age of Art Nouveau.

Boston : Museum of Fine Arts, 2014. Illustrated hardcover binding. 255 pp. Numerous ills. in color. 28 cm. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : as new. - From the 1890s through the turn of the century, there was a flourishing of imaginative art and craft throughout Europe that we now know as Art Nouveau. The Netherlands experienced an inventive variant of this art and design phenomenon, but until now it has been largely overshadowed by its counterparts in other countries, especially France. This richly illustrated book is the first in English to celebrate the Dutch contribution to Art Nouveau through a tour of more than one hundred works on paper - posters, decorative calendars, illustrated books, as well as prints and drawings. These innovative works of graphic design reveal the progressive Dutch artists' conscious reaction against the past, their inspiration in natural forms and exotic cultures, and their embrace of the principle that art should transform everyday life. It also shows how the New Art, Nieuwe Kunst in Dutch, coexisted and sometimes intertwined in the Netherlands with other artistic strands, including persistent realist trends, Symbolism and the emergence of Modernism. With an introduction and explanatory text about each work of art by Clifford S. Ackley, one of the world's leading specialists of Dutch prints and drawings, Holland on Paper provides a fascinating and visually rewarding introduction to a rich and creative artistic era.

Acton, Forman.

Real Computing Made Real.

Princeton, N.J. :Princeton University Press, 1996. Hardcover. 240 pp. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : very good. -For those engineers and scientists who use computers to solve their problems only to discover new, subtle problems in their results, this book is a welcome quick guide to trouble-shooting. Offering practical advice on detecting and removing the insidious bugs that plague finite-precision calculations, real Computing outlines techniques for preserving significant figures, avoiding extraneous solutions (those ridiculous answers that turn up all too often), and finding efficient iterative processes for solving nonlinear equations. Anyone who computes with real numbers (for example, floating-point numbers stored with limited precision) tends to pick up a few computing tricks--techniques that increase the frequency of useful answers. But where there might be ample guidance for a computor grappling with linear problems, there is little help for someone negotiating the nonlinear world--and it is this need that Forman Acton addresses. His book presents a wealth of examples and exercises (with answers) to help a reader develop problemformulating skills--thus learning to avoid the common pitfalls that software packages seldom detect. It presumes some experience with standard numerical methods--but for beginners in real computing, it will lend a touch of realism to topics often slighted in introductory texts. ISBN 9780691036632.
