The journey toward self-actualization in today's society is not always an easy one. In Dennis Alan Kasten's touching memoir, however, the personal journey of a gay man in modern America is tenderly documented and reflected upon with startling honesty and poignancy. His struggles, his triumphs, his joys, and overall, his love of music-especially the piano-are all shared as the author takes us through his life and teaches us that the true meaning of our existence is to find the rainbow within: We must learn to celebrate our individuality, our special gifts and talents, and our uniqueness as someone specially created by God. This tale is that of a journey of hardships, love, loss, discrimination, betrayal, grief, fortitude, and above all, enduring hope.

University Physics is a three-volume collection that meets the scope and sequence requirements for two- and three-semester calculus-based physics courses. Volume 1 covers mechanics, sound, oscillations, and waves. Volume 2 covers thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism, and Volume 3 covers optics and modern physics. This textbook emphasizes connections between between theory and application, making physics concepts interesting and accessible to students while maintaining the mathematical rigor inherent in the subject. Frequent, strong examples focus on how to approach a problem, how to work with the equations, and how to check and generalize the result. The text and images in this textbook are grayscale.

Almost everyone is acquainted with plane Euclidean geometry as it is usually taught in high school. This book introduces the reader to a completely different way of looking at familiar geometrical facts. It is concerned with transformations of the plane that do not alter the shapes and sizes of geometric figures. Such transformations play a fundamental role in the group theoretic approach to geometry. The treatment is direct and simple. The reader is introduced to new ideas and then is urged to solve problems using these ideas. The problems form an essential part of this book and the solutions are given in detail in the second half of the book.

In Reflections on Judging, Richard Posner distills the experience of his thirty-one years as a judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. Surveying how the judiciary has changed since his 1981 appointment, he engages the issues at stake today, suggesting how lawyers should argue cases and judges decide them, how trials can be improved, and, most urgently, how to cope with the dizzying pace of technological advance that makes litigation ever more challenging to judges and lawyers. For Posner, legal formalism presents one of the main obstacles to tackling these problems. Formalist judges--most notably Justice Antonin Scalia--needlessly complicate the legal process by advocating "canons of constructions" (principles for interpreting statutes and the Constitution) that are confusing and self-contradictory. Posner calls instead for a renewed commitment to legal realism, whereby a good judge gathers facts, carefully considers context, and comes to a sensible conclusion that avoids inflicting collateral damage on other areas of the law. This, Posner believes, was the approach of the jurists he most admires and seeks to emulate: Oliver Wendell Holmes, Louis Brandeis, Benjamin Cardozo, Learned Hand, Robert Jackson, and Henry Friendly, and it is an approach that can best resolve our twenty-first-century legal disputes.

What is Phong Reflection Model The Phong reflection model is an empirical model of the local illumination of points on a surface designed by the computer graphics researcher Bui Tuong Phong. In 3D computer graphics, it is sometimes referred to as "Phong shading", particularly if the model is used with the interpolation method of the same name and in the context of pixel shaders or other places where a lighting calculation can be referred to as "shading". How you will benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Phong reflection model Chapter 2: Blinn-Phong reflection model Chapter 3: Bidirectional reflectance distribution function Chapter 4: Specular highlight Chapter 5: Green's theorem Chapter 6: Finite strain theory Chapter 7: Wave vector Chapter 8: Exponential distribution Chapter 9: Weibull distribution Chapter 10: Gamma distribution (II) Answering the public top questions about phong reflection model. (III) Real world examples for the usage of phong reflection model in many fields. Who this book is for Professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those who want to go beyond basic knowledge or information for any kind of Phong Reflection Model.
