Although ceramics have been known to mankind literally for millennia, research has never ceased. Apart from the classic uses as a bulk material in pottery, construction, and decoration, the latter half of the twentieth century saw an explosive growth of application fields, such as electrical and thermal insulators, wear-resistant bearings, surface coatings, lightweight armour, or aerospace materials. In addition to plain, hard solids, modern...

Recent advances in science and technology have led to a rapid increase in the complexity of most engineered systems. In many notable cases, this change has been a qualitative one rather than merely one of magnitude. A new class of Complex Engineered Systems (CES) has emerged as a result of technologies such as the Internet, GPS, wireless networking, micro-robotics, MEMS, fiber-optics and nanotechnology. These complex engineered systems are...

Historia jedenastu edycji programu "Taniec z Gwiazdami" opowiedziana przez pryzmat strojów!
Ciąża to wspaniały okres dla przyszłej mamy oraz jej otoczenia. Wyczekiwanie na badanie USG, pierwsze ruchy dziecka, obserwacja rosnącego brzuszka. Oprócz wielkich oczekiwań i radości, ciąża jest również czasem ogromnych zmian w sposobie odżywiania i stylu życia. Przyszła mama musi pamiętać o terminach wizyt u lekarza oraz wykonywać badania w określonym czasie.
O tym, jakich pytań nie zadawać nieznajomym, jak być dobrym gościem, kiedy Polak zostaje starym kawalerem i dlaczego Amerykanie nie proszą o pomoc – razem z autorką przekraczamy ocean znaczeń i wdzieramy się w dżunglę kulturowych symboli polskiego przylądka.
