Am 15. Juni 1880 wurde das neue Empfangsgebäude der Berlin-Anhalter Eisenbahn am Askanischer Platz dem Verkehr übergeben. Doch die Eröffnung des imposanten Bauwerks von Franz Schwechten war nur eine Etappe des 1871 begonnenen Umbaus des Anhalter Bahnhof in Berlin. Auf einer Länge von 5km wurden neben dem Personenbahnhof ein Güterbahnhof, Werkstätten, Aufstell- und Verschiebegleise und viele weitere Anlagen neu errichtet. In zeitgenössischen Originaltexten werden die Anfänge der Berlin-Anhalter Eisenbahn, der Umbau des Bahnhofs und die Architektur der Gebäude geschildert. Zahlreiche Fotos und Zeichnungen illustrieren dieses Zeitdokument der Berliner Verkehrs- und Architekturgeschichte.

The war in Ukraine, with the exposure of nuclear power stations and the danger of atomic warfare, has made the legacy of the Soviet nuclear sector of critical importance.The two authors map the Soviet nuclear industry in a shifting historical context, making sense of a complex socio-technical and environmental history. Taking an innovative approach, this book explores the history of atomic power in the former Soviet Union using the spatial dimensions of the nuclear industry as a point of departure. The key concept is that of the archipelago - a network of nuclear facilities spread throughout the Soviet territory, but mutually reliant on each other and densely connected.The story traces the emergence of nuclear science and technology for military and civilian purposes through to the post-Soviet Russian nuclear corporations as providers of resources and technology. The book explains how nuclear developments in the Soviet Union interacted with processes of environmental and landscape change. The spatial lens offers an analytically fruitful and pedagogically stimulating way to comprehend the nuclear histories of the Soviet Union and its successor states.

"Thomas Watson Jr. drove IBM to undertake the biggest gamble in business history with a revolution no other company of the age could dare--the creation in the 1960s of the IBM System/360, the world's first fully integrated and compatible mainframe computer that laid the foundation for the information technology future. Its success made IBM the most valuable company in America. Fortune magazine touted him as "the greatest capitalist who ever lived." Time named him one of the "One Hundred People of the Century." Behind closed doors, Watson was a multifaceted, complicated man. As a young man, he was a failed student and playboy, an unlikely candidate for corporate titan. He pulled his life together as a courageous World War II pilot and took over IBM after his father's death. He suffered from anxiety and depression so overwhelming that he spent days prostrate and locked in a bathroom at home while IBM faced crisis after crisis. And he carried out a family-shattering battle over the future of IBM with his brother Dick, who expected to follow him as CEO. But despite his many demons, he laid the foundation for what eventually became the global information technology industry, which dominates today's world. His story, and the industry he created, is equal to, if not more important than that of Rockefeller and Standard Oil, Vanderbilt and the railroads, and Morgan in finance"--

"As all aspects of our social and informational lives increasingly migrate online, the line between what is 'real' and what is digitally fabricated grows ever thinner-and that fake content has undeniable real-world consequences. A History of Fake Things on the Internet takes the long view of how advances in technology brought us to the point where faked texts, images, and video content are nearly indistinguishable from what is authentic or true. Computer scientist Walter J. Scheirer takes a deep dive into the origins of fake news, conspiracy theories, reports of the paranormal, and other deviations from reality that have become part of mainstream culture, from image manipulation in the nineteenth-century darkroom to the literary stylings of large language models like ChatGPT. Scheirer investigates the origins of Internet fakes, from early hoaxes that traversed the globe via Bulletin Board Systems (BBSs), USENET, and a new messaging technology called email, to today's hyperrealistic, AI-generated Deepfakes. An expert in machine learning and recognition, Scheirer breaks down the technical advances that made new developments in digital deception possible, and shares behind-the-screens details of early Internet-era pranks that have become touchstones of hacker lore. His story introduces us to the visionaries and mischief-makers who first deployed digital fakery and continue to influence how digital manipulation works--and doesn't--today: computer hackers, digital artists, media forensics specialists, and AI researchers. Ultimately, Scheirer argues that problems associated with fake content are not intrinsic properties of the content itself, but rather, stem from human behavior, demonstrating our capacity for both creativity and destruction"--

Mit dem Ludwigs-Main-Donau-Kanal gelang es, die Europäische Wasserscheide zu überwinden und eine schiffbare Verbindung von der Nordsee zum Schwarzen Meer schaffen. Innerhalb von zehn Jahren wurden 100 Schleusen, über 70 Dämme sowie zahlreichen Brücken und Brückenkanäle errichtet. Friedrich Schultheis schildert hier detailreich den Fortgang der Bauarbeiten von den ersten Planungen bis zur Einweihung im Juli 1846. 26 Doppelseitige Illustrationen von Alexander Marx geben einen Eindruck von diesem Meisterwerk der Technikgeschichte.
