Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This textbook offers an interdisciplinary, comprehensive and state-of-the-art overview of the media linguistics approaches to explain and understand digital communication and multimodality. Linking the fields of communication studies, applied linguistics and journalism, it grounds communication practices in a deep understanding of the social and societal implications of language use in digital media. The tools to analyse multimodal texts are analysed in light of the advantages and constraints that different communication modes pose, both individually and in combination. Aimed at upper level undergraduates and graduates in applied linguistics, communication and media studies, including journalism and PR, this textbook contains case studies and professional examples highlighting the interplay between language use and digital communication and encouraging the reader to reflect on the themes covered, and put the acquired knowledge into practice. Online resources for students include videos, writing techniques, a guide to multimodal texts analysis, additional case studies and a glossary. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Since the introduction of steel as a building material in the early twentieth century, its superior performance has challenged conventional wisdom about construction, enabling designs of surprising lightness and span. Steel offered the opportunity to significantly expand buildings vertically and thus emerged as a symbol of the conflict between technological progress and the architectural ideal. More recently, the use of exposed steel elements in modern architecture ushered in a rediscovery of buildings' metamorphoses.Building Additions in Steel looks at the largely ignored topic of steel additions in architecture and engineering, documenting an ambitious, interdisciplinary research project by architects, engineers, teachers, and students at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Institute of Constructive Design. The book offers basic theoretical and technical information on a selection of outstanding steel additions alongside more than 100 illustrations, including plans and photographs. With contributions by Jürg Conzett and Roger Diener, Lorenzo De Chiffre, Yves Dreier, Patric Fischli-Boson, Patric Furrer, Matteo Iannello, Daniel Meyer, François Renaud, Astrid Staufer, Daniel Stockhammer, and Martin Tschanz.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Die Begriffe Aufstockung und Stahlbau sind seit jeher eng miteinander verbunden. Die enorme Leistungsfähigkeit von Stahl ermöglichte seit seiner Einführung als Baustoff vor mehr als 100 Jahren Konstruktionen von ungeahnter Leichtigkeit und Spannweite und stellte tradiertes Bauwissen infrage. Dieses englischsprachige Buch, entstanden am Institut für Konstruktives Entwerfen IKE der Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften ZHAW in Winterthur präsentiert ein interdisziplinäres Projekt von Architekten, Ingenieuren und Studierenden, das eine einzigartige, bislang wenig beachtete Thematik des Bauens untersucht und theoretische und bautechnische Grundlagen erarbeitet.…
