Continuity Errors
CBC BOOKS CANADIAN POETRY COLLECTIONS TO WATCH FOR IN SPRING 2023Feminist poems both serious and absurd that question our obsession with productivity instead of with care. Continuity Errors questions the privileging of work and productivity over rest and care from an ecological and feminist perspective.Written before and immediately after the birth of her first child, these poems try to imagine the future her son will inherit.Encounters with an unusual cast of characters – including lonely cryptids, unrepentant grifters, and persistent ghosts – provide incomplete answers, and while the continuity errors keep multiplying around her, Wright pauses to consider whether our devotion to innovation is keeping us stuck. "Catriona Wright's Continuity Errors is a book of snaking moves and sneaking intellect, a book of style and fortitude and sass.Wright's always sharp and often eerie interrogations lead us through a world of cryptocurrency, grunt work, predictive policing, extinction, haute cuisine, billboard ads, smoke breaks, breast pumps; these are poems for our moment of onslaught and bewilderment that, having had the world forced down their throats, spit back." – Natalie Shapero, author of Popular Longing

Understanding Civil Wars : Continuity and change in intrastate conflict
This volume explores the nature of civil war in the modern world and in historical perspective.Civil wars represent the principal form of armed conflict since the end of the Second World War, and certainly in the contemporary era.The nature and impact of civil wars suggests that these conflicts reflect and are also a driving force for major societal change.In this sense, Understanding Civil Wars: Continuity and change in intrastate conflict argues that the nature of civil war is not fundamentally changing in nature. The book includes a thorough consideration of patterns and types of intrastate conflict and debates relating to the causes, impact, and ‘changing nature’ of war.A key focus is on the political and social driving forces of such conflict and its societal meanings, significance and consequences.The author also explores methodological and epistemological challenges related to studying and understanding intrastate war.A range of questions and debates are addressed. What is the current knowledge regarding the causes and nature of armed intrastate conflict?Is it possible to produce general, cross-national theories on civil war which have broad explanatory relevance?Is the concept of ‘civil wars’ empirically meaningful in an era of globalization and transnational war?Has intrastate conflict fundamentally changed in nature?Are there historical patterns in different types of intrastate conflict?What are the most interesting methodological trends and debates in the study of armed intrastate conflict?How are narratives about the causes and nature of civil wars constructed around ideas such as ethnic conflict, separatist conflict and resource conflict?This book will be of much interest to students of civil wars, intrastate conflict, security studies and international relations in general.

Discontinuity to Continuity
What is the best framework for reading the Bible?The question of how to relate the Old and New Testaments is as old as the Bible itself.While most Protestants are unified on the foundations, there are major disagreements on particular issues.Who should be baptized? Is the Christian obligated to obey the Law of Moses?Does the church supplant Israel? Who are the proper recipients of God's promises to Israel?In Discontinuity to Continuity, Benjamin Merkle brings light to the debates between dispensational and covenantal theological systems.Merkle identifies how Christians have attempted to relate the Testaments, placing viewpoints along a spectrum of discontinuity to continuity.Each system's concerns are sympathetically summarized and critically evaluated.Through his careful exposition of these frameworks, Merkle helps the reader understand the key issues in the debate.Providing more light than heat, Merkle's book will help all readers better appreciate other perspectives and articulate their own.

Why does Lipschitz continuity automatically imply continuity?
Lipschitz continuity automatically implies continuity because Lipschitz continuity places a bound on the rate at which a function can change. This means that the function cannot have sudden, large changes in its values, and therefore it must be continuous. In other words, if a function is Lipschitz continuous, it is guaranteed to be continuous because it cannot have any abrupt jumps or discontinuities. This property makes Lipschitz continuity a stronger condition than just continuity.

Is Continuity bugged?
Continuity is not bugged. It is a fundamental concept in mathematics and refers to the idea that a function or a curve can be drawn without lifting the pen from the paper. In the context of software development, continuity refers to the smooth and uninterrupted operation of a program or system. If there are issues with continuity in a software application, it is likely due to bugs or errors in the code, rather than a problem with the concept of continuity itself.

What is personal continuity?
Personal continuity refers to the sense of identity and connectedness that individuals experience over time. It encompasses the feeling of being the same person despite changes in physical appearance, beliefs, and experiences. Personal continuity is often tied to the concept of self-identity and the ability to maintain a coherent sense of self across different stages of life. It can also involve the preservation of memories, values, and relationships that contribute to a person's sense of continuity and stability.

What is the relationship between integrability, continuity, and differentiability?
Integrability, continuity, and differentiability are all related concepts in calculus. A function is integrable if it can be approximated by Riemann sums, which requires the function to be continuous over the interval of integration. Continuity is a necessary condition for differentiability, as a function must be continuous in order to be differentiable at a point. However, a function can be continuous without being differentiable, as seen in cases of sharp corners or cusps. Overall, integrability, continuity, and differentiability are interconnected properties of functions that help us understand their behavior and properties.

Evo's Bolivia : Continuity and Change
In this compelling and comprehensive look at the rise of Evo Morales and Bolivia’s Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS), Linda Farthing and Benjamin Kohl offer a thoughtful evaluation of the transformations ushered in by the western hemisphere’s first contemporary indigenous president.Accessible to all readers, Evo’s Bolivia not only charts Evo’s rise to power but also offers a history of and context for the MAS revolution’s place in the rising “pink tide” of the political left.Farthing and Kohl examine the many social movements whose agendas have set the political climate in Bolivia and describe the difficult conditions the administration inherited.They evaluate the results of Evo’s policies by examining a variety of measures, including poverty; health care and education reform; natural resources and development; and women’s, indigenous, and minority rights.Weighing the positive with the negative, the authors offer a balanced assessment of the results and shortcomings of the first six years of the Morales administration. At the heart of this book are the voices of Bolivians themselves.Farthing and Kohl interviewed women and men in government, in social movements, and on the streets throughout the country, and their diverse backgrounds and experiences offer a multidimensional view of the administration and its progress so far.Ultimately the “process of change” Evo promised is exactly that: an ongoing and complicated process, yet an important example of development in a globalized world.

Against Continuity : Deleuze'S Speculative Realism
Against Continuity is the first book to demonstrate that the beating heart of Gilles Deleuze's philosophy is a systematic ontology of irreducible, singular entities.This requires a radical break with decades of Deleuzian orthodoxy, according to which Deleuze's metaphysics revolves around the dissolution of discrete entities into a continuous world of flows and events.With reference to all of Deleuze's work, including published and untranslated seminars, as well as the recently published 'Lettres et autres textes', Arjen Kleinherenbrink critically compares Deleuze's ontology to seven related contemporary thinkers: Levi Bryant, Maurizio Ferraris, Markus Gabriel, Manuel DeLanda, Graham Harman, Tristan Garcia and Bruno Latour.These comparisons establish Deleuze as an important precursor to object-oriented speculative realism and open up exciting new avenues of thought for critics and supporters of Deleuze alike.

What is the difference between pointwise continuity and uniform continuity in mathematics?
Pointwise continuity refers to the property of a function where it is continuous at each individual point in its domain. This means that for every point x in the domain, the function f(x) has a limit as x approaches that point. On the other hand, uniform continuity refers to the property of a function where the rate of change of the function is controlled by a single value for the entire domain. In other words, for any ε > 0, there exists a δ > 0 such that for all x and y in the domain, |x - y| < δ implies |f(x) - f(y)| < ε. In pointwise continuity, the choice of δ may depend on the specific point x, while in uniform continuity, the choice of δ must work for the entire domain simultaneously.

What is the equivalence of the continuity concepts Epsilon-Delta and sequential continuity?
The equivalence of the continuity concepts Epsilon-Delta and sequential continuity lies in the fact that they both capture the idea of a function being continuous at a point. In the Epsilon-Delta definition, continuity is defined in terms of neighborhoods and limits, while in sequential continuity, it is defined in terms of sequences converging to a point. Both definitions ultimately aim to capture the intuitive notion of a function having no sudden jumps or breaks at a particular point. Despite the differences in their formal definitions, both concepts are equivalent and can be used interchangeably to prove continuity of a function.

Why does differentiability imply continuity?
Differentiability implies continuity because in order for a function to be differentiable at a point, it must be continuous at that point. This is because the definition of differentiability includes the existence of a derivative, which in turn requires the function to be continuous. If a function is not continuous at a point, it cannot have a derivative at that point, and therefore cannot be differentiable. Therefore, differentiability implies continuity.

What is the continuity equation?
The continuity equation is a fundamental principle in fluid dynamics that states that the mass of a fluid entering a system must be equal to the mass of the fluid leaving the system, assuming there are no sources or sinks of mass within the system. Mathematically, it is expressed as the equation of continuity, which states that the product of the fluid density, velocity, and cross-sectional area must remain constant at any point along a flow. This equation is derived from the principle of conservation of mass and is essential for understanding and analyzing fluid flow in various engineering applications.
