Във "Великият дизайн" авторите обясняват, че според квантовата теория Вселената няма само едно съществуване и история, а напротив - всички възможни истории на Вселената съществуват едновременно. Когато се приложи към цялата Вселена, тази концепция подлага под въпрос идеята за причина и следствие. Но според подхода "отгоре надолу" към космологията, описан от Стивън Хокинг и Ленард Млодинов , фактът, че миналото няма точно определена форма означава, че ние създаваме историята, като я наблюдаваме, а ... |

Conceived originally as a tool for familiarizing Western intellectuals with the rich history and culture of Bulgaria and its people, the book presents as well - albeit briefly - the other Balkan nationalities and their interrelations. The case is made for the injustice wrought upon the country by the Great Powers, such that within the last 130 years or so since its liberation from the Ottoman yoke it has been splintered into multiple pieces, each donated to a different neighbour. Specifically, the call is justified for unification between Bulgaria and it's southwestern part that is known under the name of Republic of ... |

However, the facade structural elements undergo the following impacts: solar radiation; wind load; variation of the outdoor air temperature; effects of neighbouring buildings; effects of the environmental landscape; reflection or accumulation of solar radiation followed by secondary ... |

A key figure in the international avant-garde, Piet Mondrian (1872 - 1944) was at once an extraordinary painter and leading art theoretician whose influence resonates to this day. Coining the term "Neo-plasticism", he pursued a style of painting composed only of primary colors against a grid of black vertical and horizontal lines and a white base background. Mondrian's vision was that this essential painting would help to achieve a society in which art as such has no place, but rather exists for the total realization of "beauty". With stints in Amsterdam, Paris, London, and New York, Mondrian drew ... |
