Garfield -- $tCommentary -- $tBiographical Notes 330 $aIn this wide-ranging lecture, Lord Jenkins tells the story of the rise and fall of the British Liberal party under prime ministers Gladstone, Churchill, Asquith, and Lloyd George and explores the place of current British Prime Minister Tony Blair in this tradition.Beginning with the Liberal Party's birth in London, 1859, the author addresses the relative success of the Liberal prime ministers in dealing with social issues, such as religion and suffrage, and aspects of government legislation including education, foreign policy, and the military. Lord Jenkins also offers his views on the personalities of these men, recognizing that the character of leaders naturally shapes their leadership. Of William Ewart Gladstone, for example, Lord Jenkins notes that, while he was "not necessarily the greatest prime minister," Gladstone was "certainly the most remarkable specimen of humanity ever to inhabit 10 Downing Street." Gladstone climbed mountains at the age of seventy-five and read twenty thousand books in his lifetime. Herbert Henry Asquith and Winston Churchill were remarkably different in their oratory skills. While Asquith reveled in the pressure of spontaneous, emotional speeches to large crowds, Churchill excelled in a more literary, meticulous approach to his audience, which explains why the latter prime minister was so respected for his performances on radio broadcasts.Lord Jenkins' style, seasoned by the experience of having published over sixteen books on politics and politicians, reflects a keen sense of British history and politics and, more generally, of our fascination with the inner workings of political and personal lives. The British Liberal Tradition, by Lord Roy Jenkins, is the fourth annual Senator Keith Davey Lecture, delivered at Victoria University at the University of Toronto in 2000. 410 0$aSenator Keith Davey lecture series. 606 $aLiberalism$zGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y1837-1901 607 $aGreat Britain$xPolitics and government$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiberalism$xHistory. 676 $a324.2410609 700 $aJenkins$b Roy$f1920-2003,$0173201 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456285703321 996 $aThe British liberal tradition$92486050 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03250nam 2200709Ia 450 001 9911018810303321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9781118310113 010 $a111831011X 010 $a9781283941297 010 $a1283941295 010 $a9781118310106 010 $a1118310101 024 7 $a10.1002/9781118310144 035 $a(CKB)2670000000262507 035 $a(EBL)861781 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000722620 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11401057 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000722620 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10698832 035 $a(PQKB)10425286 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC861781 035 $a(CaBNVSL)mat06331042 035 $a(IDAMS)0b0000648193dda7 035 $a(IEEE)6331042 035 $a(OCoLC)812066602 035 $a(Perlego)1002511 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000262507 100 $a20120104d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aFrequency stability $eintroduction and applications /$fVenceslav F.

This introductory text of frequency stability offers discussion of the noise from the practical and theoretical points of view, proceeding with investigation of frequency and time fluctuations in resonators, and continue with stability of both of standard and practical microwave oscillators. Finally, the author discusses noise properties of building circuit blocks introducing a chapter on time domain properties and their relations with noise spectral densities. A special chapter is dedicated to the design and properties of the Phase Locked Loops. They are very important for frequency synthesizers which influence every day communications of millions and millions of people"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aIEEE series on mobile & digital communication. 606 $aOscillators, Electric$xDesign and construction 606 $aFrequency stability 615 0$aOscillators, Electric$xDesign and construction. 615 0$aFrequency stability. 676 $a621.381/323 686 $aTEC008060$2bisacsh 700 $aKroupa$b Venceslav F.$f1923-$0845532 712 02$aInstitute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911018810303321 996 $aFrequency stability$91887705 997 $aUNINA
