"Spacecraft Attitude Control: A Linear Matrix Inequality Approach solves problems for spacecraft attitude control systems using convex optimization and, specifically, through a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach. High-precision pointing and improved robustness in the face of external disturbances and other uncertainties are requirements for the current generation of spacecraft. This book presents an LMI approach to spacecraft attitude control and shows that all uncertainties in the maneuvering process can be solved numerically. It explains how a model-like state space can be developed through a mathematical presentation of attitude control systems, allowing the controller in question to be applied universally."--

What does it mean to acknowledge one's closeness to, enmeshment in or even kinship with the material world? And what does it mean to question family structures - the way they organise, coerce and make deviant certain lifeforms - and dwell in other possibilities of kin-making? Not just a jolly rethinking of objects or a polyamorous romp through relationships, *The Material Kinship Reader* reckons with the extractavist histories of materials and the social relations that frame much of contemporary life. Spanning fiction and theory, the collection of texts expand the idea of an artist's book by bringing words into conversation with an aesthetic proposition. Clementine Edwards' artwork is the visual weft to the book's written net. From colonial conquest to climate collapse, *The Material Kinship Reader* tells toxic and tender stories of interdependence among all things sentient and insentient. Including contributions by Sara Ahmed, Hana Pera Aoake, Roland Barthes, Joannie Baumgärtner, Heather Davis, Kris Dittel, Clementine Edwards, Ama Josephine B. Johnstone, Robin Wall Kimmerer, Ursula K. Le Guin, Sophie Lewis, Steven Millhauser, Jena Myung, Aileen Moreton-Robinson, Michelle Murphy, Ada M. Patterson, Kim TallBear and Michelle Tea

Evidence from high-income countries suggests that judges often exhibit in-group bias, favoring litigants that share an identity with the judge. However, there is little evidence on this phenomenon from the Global South. Collecting the available universe of High Court decisions in Kenya, this paper leverages the random assignment of cases to judges to evaluate the existence of in-group bias along gender and ethnic lines. It finds that, relative to a baseline win rate of 43 percent, defendants are 4 percentage points more likely to win if they share the judge's gender and 5 percentage points more likely to win if they share the judge's ethnicity. The paper finds that the written judgements are on average shorter and less likely to be cited when defendants who are of the same gender or ethnicity as the judge win their case. This is consistent with in-group biased decisions being of lower quality. In addition, the findings show that female defendants are less likely to win the case if the judge exhibits stereotypical or negative attitudes towards women in their writings.
