Memory, Society and Material Culture: Papers from the Third Theoretical Seminar of the Baltic Archaeologists (BASE) Held at the University of Latvia, October 5-6,2007
Book information
Description
Originating from the discussions in 2002 that germinated new ideas and interpretations on East Baltic archaeology, the Baltic Archaeological Seminar (or simply BASE) has since then steadily developed into an international forum opened to new views, theoretical interpretations and approaches. The title of the third BASE seminar was "Memory, Society, and Material Culture". Questions related to the meaning of the past both in different periods of history and at the present have attracted considerable attention among historians, archaeologists, anthropologists, etc during the recent decades. However, up to now, the issues related to memory in archaeological record have not been discussed in the Baltic archaeology; thus, BASE members considered the seminar to be a reasonable opportunity to discuss the perspectives and potential of the study of memory in the Baltic prehistory and archaeology.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
