From the Caldecott Medal-winning creator of "The Invention of Hugo Cabret" and "Wonderstruck" comes a breathtaking new voyage. In this magnificent reimagining of the form he originated, two stand-alone stories--the first in nearly 400 pages of continuous pictures, the second in prose--create a beguiling narrative puzzle. The journey begins at sea in 1766, with a boy named Billy Marvel. After surviving a shipwreck, he finds work in a London theatre. There, his family flourishes for generations as brilliant actors until 1900, when young Leontes Marvel is banished from the stage. Nearly a century later, runaway Joseph Jervis seeks refuge with an uncle in London. Albert Nightingale's strange, beautiful house, with its mysterious portraits and ghostly presences, captivates Joseph and leads him on a search for clues about the house, his family, and the past. A gripping adventure and an intriguing mystery "The Marvels" is a loving tribute to the power of story.
由陈文斌、程晋、吴新明、李立康编著的《微分方程数值解》主要介绍了常微分方程和偏微分方程的数值解法,具体包括:数值分析基础、常微分方程数值方法、椭圆型方程的差分方法、发展方程的差分方法、有限元方法简介以及有限元方法误差分析。本书在编写过程中注重由浅人深、理论和数值实验结合;着重培养学生掌握基本的数值格式,并能对模型问题进行数值模拟和对数值结果进行的分析。本书可以作为数学类各专业微分方程数值解课程的教学用书或参考书,对其他理工科学生学习常微分方程和偏微分方程数值解法也具有参考价值。
格林迪洛(Grindylow) 格林迪洛是一种长着犄角、浑身淡绿色的水中魔鬼,生活在不列颠和爱尔兰各地的湖泊中。它们以小鱼为食,既攻击麻瓜也攻击巫师,可是据了解,人鱼已经把它们驯服了。格林迪洛长着非常长的手指,这些手指尽管抓东西时颇为有力,却很容易折断。 克利切(Kreacher) 一个年老的家养小精灵,为古老的黑巫师布莱克家族做事。他住在厨房柜子里的大锅炉下。 匈牙利树蜂(Hungarian Horntail) 在[火焰杯]中,主人公在三强争霸赛上的个项目的比赛中就是斗龙,哈里抽到的就是匈牙利树蜂,在书中将其描述得十分凶猛。 摄魂怪(Dementor) 魔法生物,披着一件斗篷,全身都像在水里泡烂了一样,有着结痂的手掌,全身腐烂了一样。凡是此物经过的地方,都会被吸去快乐,让你想起可怕的事,并且他的兜帽下面的“嘴”会吸去人
