Modern Robotics: Mechanics, Planning, and ControlThis introduction to robotics offers a distinct and unified perspective of the mechanics, planning and control of robots. Ideal for self-learning, or for courses, as it assumes only freshman-level physics, ordinary differential equations, linear algebra and a little bit of computing background. Modern Robotics presents the state-of-the-art, screw-theoretic techniques capturing the most salient physical features of a robot in an intuitive geometrical way. With numerous exercises at the end of each chapter, accompanying software written to reinforce the concepts in the book and video lectures aimed at changing the classroom experience, this is the go-to textbook for learning about this fascinating subject.ISBN 10: 1107156300ISBN 13: 9781107156302
Monsters of the Market: Zombies, Vampires and Global Capitalism -Historical MaterialismWinner of the 2011 Isaac and Tamara Deutscher Memorial PrizeDrawing on folklore, literature and popular culture, this book links tales of monstrosity from England to recent vampire- and zombie-fables from sub-Saharan Africa, and it connects these to Marx’s persistent use of monster-metaphors in his descriptions of capitalism. Reading across these tales of the grotesque, McNally offers a novel account of the cultural economy of the global market-system.ISBN 10: 1608462331ISBN 13: 9781608462339

Mr. Keynes and the Post Keynesians: Principles of Macroeconomics for a Monetary Production Economy -New Directions in Modern Economics SeriesIn this important book, Professor Carvalho firmly establishes the methodological connections between Keynes’s uncertainty concept and the evolving post Keynesian literature. At the same time, he demonstrates why the Hicksian ISLM ‘Keynesian’ approach went off the careful analytic tracks laid down by Keynes.ISBN 10: 1852786531ISBN 13: 9781852786533
Multilingual Brazil -Routledge Critical Studies in MultilingualismThis book brings together cutting edge work by Brazilian researchers on multilingualism in Brazil for an English-speaking readership in one comprehensive volume. Divided into five sections, each with its own introduction, tying together the themes of the book, the volume charts a course for a new sociolinguistics of multilingualism, challenging long-held perceptions about a monolingual Brazil by exploring the different policies, language resources, ideologies and social identities that have emerged in the country’s contemporary multilingual landscape. The book elucidates the country’s linguistic history to demonstrate its evolution to its present state, a country shaped by political, economic, and cultural forces both locally and globally, and explores different facets of today’s multilingual Brazil, including youth on the margins and their cultural and linguistic practices; the educational challenges of socially marginalized groups; and minority groups’ efforts to strengthen languages of identity and belonging. In addition to assembling linguistic research done in Brazil previously little known to an English-speaking readership, the book incorporates theoretical frameworks from other disciplines to provide a comprehensive picture of the social, political, and cultural dynamics at play in multilingual Brazil. This volume is key reading for researchers in linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, cultural studies, and Latin American studies.ISBN 10: 0367365898ISBN 13: 9780367365899
