《世界秩序的前世與未來》——西方衰退,全球重塑新秩序🌏 五千年歷史回顧 × 全球秩序變革 × 非西方視角的未來藍圖西方衰退會帶來混亂,還是更公平的世界?政治學家 Amitav Acharya 深入探討全球秩序的起源,從蘇美爾、古印度、希臘到現代國際體系,揭示非西方國家如何塑造歷史。📖 「世界秩序不屬於西方,未來將更加多元。」——Kishore Mahbubani,《亞洲世紀》作者🔥 顛覆傳統國際關係視角,引領讀者理解後西方時代的新世界!The epic story of the past, present, and future of world order, offering a "timely" (Odd Arne Westad, coauthor of The Great Transformation) argument that the decline of the West may be a good thing for the world Since the dawn of the twenty-first century, the West has been in crisis. Social unrest, political polarization, and the rise of other great powers--especially China--threaten to unravel today's Western-led world order. Many fear this would lead to global chaos. But the West has never had a monopoly on order. Surveying five thousand years of global history, political scientist Amitav Acharya reveals that world order--the political architecture enabling cooperation and peace among nations--existed long before the rise of the West. Moving from ancient Sumer, Ind

Originally published in 1938, this volume provides a detailed study of the Romanesque style as exemplified by the architecture of the Cluniac Monastic Order. The key features of Cluniac architectural style are discussed in detail and observations are supported with a broad variety of illustrative examples. Other features include comprehensive lists of Cluniac Houses and affiliated Parish Churches, a key to Marrier's Catalogus, and a generous bibliography. This is a well-presented and highly informative book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in Christian monastic architecture.

This book gives a comprehensive description of the architecture of microprocessors from simple in-order short pipeline designs to out-of-order superscalars. It discusses topics such as: • The policies and mechanisms needed for out-of-order processing such as register renaming, reservation stations, and reorder buffers • Optimizations for high performance such as branch predictors, instruction scheduling, and load-store speculations • Design choices and enhancements to tolerate latency in the cache hierarchy of single and multiple processors • State-of-the-art multithreading and multiprocessing emphasizing single chip implementations Topics are presented as conceptual ideas, with metrics to assess the performance impact, if appropriate, and examples of realization. The emphasis is on how things work at a black box and algorithmic level. The author also provides sufficient detail at the register transfer level so that readers can appreciate how design features enhance performance as wel
