Consistently insightful and beautifully written, this work is especially compelling at a time when the forest, as a source of wonder, respect, and meaning, disappears daily from the earth. "Forests is one of the most remarkable essays on the human place in nature I have ever read, and belongs on the small shelf that includes Raymond Williams' masterpiece, The Country and the City. Elegantly conceived, beautifully written, and powerfully argued, [Forests] is a model of scholarship at its passionate best. No one who cares about cultural history, about the human place in nature, or about the future of our earthly home, should miss it.-William Cronon, Yale Review "Forests is, among other things, a work of scholarship, and one of immense value . . . one that we have needed. It can be read and reread, added to and commented on for some time to come."-John Haines, The New York Times Book Review 606 $aForests in literature 615 0$aForests in literature. 676 $a809/.9336 700 $aHarrison$b Robert Pogue$0468238 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967021003321 996 $aForests$936027 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02232nam 22005173 450 001 9911018916103321 005 20241209120403.0 010 $a9781394271238 010 $a1394271239 010 $a9781394271245 010 $a1394271247 010 $a9781394271252 010 $a1394271255 035 $a(CKB)36828414100041 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC31821327 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL31821327 035 $a(Perlego)4676693 035 $a(EXLCZ)9936828414100041 100 $a20241209d2024 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 12$aA Data Engineering Approach to Wave Scattering Analysis with Applications in Radar, Sonar, Medical Diagnostics, Structural Flaw Detection and Intelligent Robotics 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aNewark :$cJohn Wiley & Sons, Incorporated,$d2024. 210 4$dİ2025. 215 $a1 online resource (369 pages) 311 08$a9781394271221 311 08$a1394271220 327 $aBackground -- Field Equations -- Boundary Conditions: Continuous and Discretized -- Reflection and Refraction -- Guided Waves -- Scattering from Spheres -- Scattering from Cylinders -- Scattering from Spheroids and Elliptic Cylinders -- Scattering from Parallelepipeds -- Inverse Scattering. 330 $a"When energy waves (such as light, sound, and various electromagnetic waves) are caused to depart from a straight path due to imperfections in the medium, it is called scattering.
