This work provides an approachable introduction to the history and the many forms that bread takes throughout the world. It provides an analysis of the different components of bread such as crust and crumb, to enable readers to better understand the breads they buy. William Rubellives in Santa Cruz, California, and is a freelance food historian. He has been making bread since he was eleven years old and for the last ten years he has been studying the history of bread. He is the author of The Magic of Fire: Cooking on the Open Hearth. It is difficult to think of a food more basic, more essential, and more universal than bread. Common to the diets of both the rich and the poor, bread is one of our oldest foods. Loaves and rolls have been found in ancient Egyptian tombs, and wheat has been found in pits where human settlements flourished 8,000 years ago. Many anthropologists argue that the ability to sow and reap cereals, the grains necessary for making bread, could be one of the main reasons why man settled in communities, and even today the concept of "breaking bread together" is a lasting symbol of the uniting power of a meal. Breadis an innovative mix of traditional history, cultural history, travelogue, and cookbook. William Rubel begins with the amazing invention of bread approximately 20,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent and ends by speculating on the ways in which cultural forces and advances in biotechnology may influence the development of bread in the twenty-first century. Rubel shows how simple choices, may be responsible for the widespread preference for wheat over other bread grains and for the millennia-old association of elite dining with white bread. He even provides an analysis of the different components of bread, such as crust and crumb, so that readers may better understand the breads they buy. With many recipes integrated with the text and a glossary covering one hundred breads, Breadgoes well beyond the simple choice of white or wheat. Here, general readers will find an approachable introduction to the history of bread and to the many forms that bread takes throughout the world, and bread bakers will discover a history of the craft and new ways of thinking that will inspire experimentation. New archaeological evidence suggests that making flour pre-dates agriculture by thousands of years, and bread may have been made just under 25,000 years ago "A cute 150 page history of baking, from Mesopotamia to the present. . . .

This volume presents a set of essays that discuss the development and plasticity of the vertebrate auditory system. The topic is one that has been considered before in the Springer Handbook of Auditory Research (volume 9 in 1998, and volume 23 in 2004) but the field has grown substantially and it is appropriate to bring previous material up to date to reflect the wealth of new data and to raise some entirely new topics.

Paula G. Rubel and Abraham Rosman: both at Columbia University and American Museum of Natural History This title refutes the arguments of postmodern theorists against the translation of a culture's ideas, beliefs and concepts of one culture into another language, before translating them into the language of anthropology. The task of the anthropologist is to take ideas, concepts and beliefs from one culture and translate them into first another language, and then into the language of anthropology. This process is both fascinating and complex. Not only does it raise questions about the limitations of language, but it also challenges the ability of the anthropologist to communicate culture accurately. In recent years, postmodern theories have tended to call into question the legitimacy of translation altogether. This book acknowledges the problems involved, but shows definitively that ls"translating culturesrs" can successfully be achieved. The way we talk, write, read and interpret are all part of a translation process. Many of us are not aware of translation in our everyday lives, but for those living outside their native culture, surrounded by cultural difference, the ability to translate experiences and thoughts becomes a major issue. Drawing on case studies and theories from a wide range of disciplines -including anthropology, philosophy, linguistics, art history, folk theory, and religious studies - this book systematically interrogates the meaning, complexities and importance of translation in anthropology and answers a wide range of provocative questions, such as: Can we unravel the true meaning of the Christian doctrine of trinity when there have been so many translations? What impact do colonial and postcolonial power structures have on our understanding of other cultures? How can we use art as a means of transgressing the limitations of linguistic translation? Translating Cultures: Perspectives on Translation and Anthropology is the first book fully to address translation in anthropology. It combines textual and ethnographic analysis to produce a benchmark publication that will be of great importance to anthropologists, philosophers, linguists, historians, and cultural theorists alike. 'Overall, these essays allow their authors -- leading scholars in their field -- the opportunity, perhaps rarely afforded in a conventional ethnographic monograph, to reflect at length on their own practices of translation, transcription, and transliteration. This makes the volume a valuable contribution to debate on translation in anthropology and related disciplines.'Ian James, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute 'Overall, these essays allow their authors -- leading scholars in their field -- the opportunity, perhaps rarely afforded in a conventional ethnographic monograph, to reflect at length on their own practices of translation, transcription, and transliteration.

A hands-on tutorial for new Eclipse GEF developers, this book is also a complete API reference and troubleshooting guide for all GEF developers. Dan Rubel,Senior Software Engineer at Google, is an entrepreneur and an expert in the design and application of object technologies. He has architected and managed several successful commercial products, and was cofounder and CTO of Instantiations, which was acquired by Google. Jaime Wren,a software engineer at Google, has extensive experience developing commercial Eclipse-based tools. At Instantiations, he made significant contributions to the CodePro and WindowBuilder product lines. He continues to work on WindowBuilder as a member of the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) team. Eric Clayberg,Software Engineering Manager for Google, is a seasoned software technologist, product developer, entrepreneur, and manager, with extensive Java and Eclipse experience. The primary author and architect of more than a dozen commercial Java and Smalltalk add-on products, he cofounded both ObjectShare and Instantiations. As Eclipse-based applications become increasingly popular, users are demanding more sophisticated graphical interfaces. When standard widgets aren't enough, graphics built with GEF are often the best solution. The Eclipse Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) covers everything Java tool developers need to create tomorrow's richest, most visual interfaces. This practical, hands-on guide begins by introducing GEF, Draw2D, and Zest, and demonstrating what can be achieved with them. Next, the authors walk through building a simple Draw2D example, helping new GEF developers understand the core capabilities available to them. Building on this foundation, they progressively introduce more of the Draw2D frameworks, including Figures, Layout Managers, Connections, Layers, and Viewports. They present a chapter-length graph visualization project based on Zest, followed by detailed coverage of non-Draw2D portions of GEF. The book's final section walks step by step through developing a complete GEF editor. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of the problem, and includes challenges, solutions, diagrams, screenshots, cookbook-style code examples, and more. This book is organized to help developers solve immediate problems quickly, while also gaining in-depth knowledge for building advanced solutions. Relevant APIs are included in several chapters, making this an even more useful standalone reference. This book Introduces GEF application components such as shapes, flow, logic, and text Explains Draw2D architecture, drawing features, and event processing Shows how to create and customize figures, use painting and borders, and work with each Draw2D Layout Manager Thoroughly explains GEF models, including domain and presentation information, populating diagrams, and more Shows how to use Zest's content providers, filters, and layout algorithms Covers EditParts, EditPolicies, Tools, Commands, Actions, and much more The Eclipse Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) is the best resource for all Java tool developers who want to construct sophisticated graphical editing products that integrate with Eclipse, for experienced Eclipse users who want to start creating their own graphical tools, and for anyone who wants to see what makes GEF tick. A hands-on tutorial for new Eclipse GEF developers, plus a complete API reference and troubleshooting guide for all GEF developers A step-by-step walkthrough of all major GEF sub-products, driven by a realistic, running example. How to design, develop and maintain commercial-quality GEF projects, avoid common pitfalls, and take full advantage of GEF's features. Includes coverage of implementing GEF Usability and GEF Accessibility. Detailed, example-rich coverage of testing GEF applications. As the popularity of Eclipse and SWT-based applications continues to grow, product specifications are requiring richer graphical interfaces. When standard widgets such as text editors, combo boxes and trees aren't enough, graphics may be the best choice to display information. In this practical, hands-on guide, three leading Eclipse graphics experts covers everything developers need to build the rich, visual interfaces they want. The authors introduce all three graphics frameworks available to Eclipse developers, Draw2D, Zest, and GEF, discussing the pros and cons of each. They carefully introduce each framework's API, walk through building a robust application with Draw2D, and then refactor their example application twice: first with Zest, and then with GEF. Coverage includes: Draw2D figures, layouts, connections, routing algorithms, and text support; Zest graphing and layout algorithms; GEF controllers, commands, requests, palette and tools, accessibility, usability; and much more. The book also includes a full chapter of advanced techniques, as well as practical troubleshooting guidance.

"In The New York Times Living History, World War II: The Axis Assault, 1939-1942, the Times has culled the archives for a history of the war. The selections in this volume masterfully chart the Axis's tightening grip on Europe and the Pacific: the transcript of Hermann Goring's private conference in the hours following Kristallnacht; Hitler's invasion plan for Poland; a merchant ship captain's memoir of the evacuation of Dunkirk; Edward R. Murrow's broadcasts from London during the Blitz; a memoir from the siege of Leningrad; FDR's cables to Japan in the hours before Pearl Harbor; Jimmy Doolittle's report after his B-25 raid to Tokyo; the last telegraph from an American GI on Corregidor. Each is paired with archival photographs and a related piece of contemporary New York Times reportage, dispatches that can indeed be called a first draft of history." "Taken together, they capture the methodical pace of alliances drawn and treaties signed, the despair of battles lost and countries fallen, the trickling of information about the worst horrors of the war. Readers will experience the major events of World War II, from the first stirring of Hostility during the late 1930s to the Axis's near-domination of the globe in the spring of 1942, much as Times readers did each morning, more than half a century ago."--BOOK JACKET.
