Convergence Culture: Where Old and New Media Collide
Convergence Culture maps a new territory: where old and new media intersect, where grassroots and corporate media collide, where the power of the media producer and the powerof the consumer interact in unpredictable ways.
Henry Jenkins, one of America's most respected media analysts, delves beneath the new media hype to uncover the important cultural transformations that are taking place as media converge.
Convergence and Divergence of National Financial Systems: Evidence from the Gold Standards, 1871-1971 (Financial History)
Coming out of the Codisyna project which looked at national financial systems during the Gold Standard years of 1871 1971, this collection of essays aims to form a focused, original and constructive approach to examining the question of convergence and divergence in Europe. With contemporary as well as historical relevance, this study will appeal to historians and economists as well as those with a professional or scholarly interest in the world of banking and finance.
Friedrich Schleiermacher: Between Enlightenment and Romanticism
Friedrich Schleiermacher's groundbreaking work in theology and philosophy was forged in the cultural ferment of Berlin at the convergence of the Enlightenment and Romanticism.
Stopping Times and Directed Processes (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Its Applications)The notion of 'stopping times' is a useful one in probability theory; it can be applied to both classical problems and fresh ones. This book presents this technique in the context of the directed set, stochastic processes indexed by directed sets, and many applications in probability, analysis and ergodic theory. The book opens with a discussion of pointwise and stochastic convergence of processes, with concise proofs arising from the method of stochastic convergence.
Stopping Time Techniques for Analysts and Probabilists
This book considers convergence of adapted sequences of real and Banach space-valued integrable functions, emphasizing the use of stopping time techniques. Not only are highly specialized results given, but also elementary applications of these results. The book starts by discussing the convergence theory of martingales and sub-( or super-) martingales with values in a Banach space with or without the Radon-Nikodym property.
