A bold reorientation of art history that bridges the divide between fine art and material culture through an examination of objects and their uses Art history is often viewed through cultural or national lenses that define some works as fine art while relegating others to the category of craft. Global Objects points the way to an interconnected history of art, examining a broad array of functional aesthetic objects that transcend geographic and temporal boundaries and challenging preconceived ideas about what is and is not art. Avoiding traditional binaries such as East versus West and fine art versus decorative art, Edward Cooke looks at the production, consumption, and circulation of objects made from clay, fiber, wood, and nonferrous base metals. Carefully considering the materials and process of making, and connecting process to product and people, he demonstrates how objects act on those who look at, use, and acquire them. He reveals how objects retain aspects of their local fabrication while absorbing additional meanings in subtle and unexpected ways as they move through space and time. In emphasizing multiple centers of art production amid constantly changing contexts, Cooke moves beyond regional histories driven by geography, nation-state, time period, or medium. Beautifully illustrated, Global Objects traces the social lives of objects from creation to purchase, and from use to experienced meaning, charting exciting new directions in art history.

A one-stop guide to the essentials of web development including popular frameworks such as jQuery, Bootstrap, AngularJS, and Node.js About This Book Understand the essential elements of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, including how and when to use them Walk through three of the best and most popular web development frameworks – jQuery, Bootstrap, and AngularJS References for any function you will need in your day-to-day web development Who This Book Is For This book is perfect for beginners but more advanced web developers will also benefit. Laid out so you can refer to as much or as little as you need to, with this book you can exhaustively explore essential concepts for modern web developers. What You Will Learn Explore detailed explanations of all the major HTML elements and attributes, illustrated with examples Take a deep dive into CSS properties and functions and master their usage Find clear, concise descriptions of JavaScript syntax and expressions Recognize various JavaScript design patterns and learn the basics of JavaScript object-orientated programming Implement the latest ECMAScript 6 for client-side scripting in your web applications Discover new ways to develop your website's front end quickly and easily using Bootstrap Write JavaScript extensibly using jQuery-JavaScript's feature-rich library Delve into the key Node.js modules used in JavaScript server-side programming Access AngularJS 's important modules, controllers, directives, and services quickly In Detail This comprehensive reference guide takes you through each topic in web development and highlights the most popular and important elements of each area. Starting with HTML, you will learn key elements and attributes and how they relate to each other. Next, you will explore CSS pseudo-classes and pseudo-elements, followed by CSS properties and functions. This will introduce you to many powerful and new selectors. You will then move on to JavaScript. This section will not just introduce functions, but will provide you with an entire reference for the language and paradigms. You will discover more about three of the most popular frameworks today—Bootstrap, which builds on CSS, jQuery which builds on JavaScript, and AngularJS, which also builds on JavaScript. Finally, you will take a walk-through Node.js, which is a server-side framework that allows you to write programs in JavaScript. Style and approach This book is an easy-to-follow, comprehensive reference guide. Each topic, function, or element is listed methodically along with parameters, return values, and descriptions. Examples are also included to help you put the concepts to use quickly in the real world.

This paper offers a systematic approach to all mathematical theories with local/global behavior. To build objects with local and global aspects, on begins with a category of [script]C of allowed local structures, and somehow derives a category [script]C[superscript]gl of things which are 'locally' in [script]C. Some global objects, such as manifolds or schemes, can be represented as a sheaf of algebras on a topological base space; others, like algebraic spaces, are more technical. These theories share common structure--certain theorems on inverse limits, descent, and dependence on special class of morphism appear in all cases. Yet, classical proofs for universal properties proceed by case-by-case study. Separate examples require distinct arguments.
