""THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS""

Sommario/riassunto

At Gettysburg, the famous Civil War battleground, Abraham Lincoln said: ""The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here."" This is something of an ironic statement, given that everyone remembers the famous line ""Four score and seven years ago,"" but many don't remember what the Gettysburg Address is actually about. It's three paragraphs long, so do your civic duty and read it again.

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents a detailed, self-contained theory of continuous mappings. It is mainly addressed to students who have already studied these mappings in the setting of metric spaces, as well as multidimensional differential calculus. The needed background facts about sets, metric spaces and linear algebra are developed in detail, so as to provide a seamless transition between students' previous studies and new material.  In view of its many novel features, this book will be of interest also to mature readers who have studied continuous mappings from the subject's classical texts and wish to become acquainted with a new approach. The theory of continuous mappings serves as infrastructure for more specialized mathematical theories like differential equations, integral equations, operator theory, dynamical systems, global analysis, topological groups, topological rings and many more. In light of the centrality of the topic, a book of this kind fits a variety of applications, especially those that contribute to a better understanding of functional analysis, towards establishing an efficient



setting for its pursuit.

Sommario/riassunto

The first comparative historical study of the six Disneyland theme parks around the world in five distinct cultures: the USA, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong and Shanghai. Situates the parks in their respective historic contexts at the time of their opening, and considers the part that class plays in the success or failure of these ventures.
