shifting register การใช้

Floating operations work with shifting registers and the brain doesn't have those ( afaik ).
"The Guardian's " reviewer, Alan Hollinghurst, found " Yellow Dog a disturbing book, but its opening pages create a mood of excited reassurance : Martin Amis at his best, in all his shifting registers, his drolleries and ferocities, his unsparing comic drive, his aesthetic dawdlings and beguilements, his wry, confident relish of his own astonishing effects [ . . . ] Everything Amis writes is highly structured, but Yellow Dog gives signs of quite bristling organisation, in its three parts and its subdivided and subheaded chapters.
