Book Description
Two scientists--linguist Wendy Ahearn and an astrophysicists Corey Newton--are hired to decode an alien artifact found at a UFO crash site in 1953. From a secret base the base in an Arizona mountain Colonel Pete Mitchell aids Newton and Ahearn in their mission to decode the artifact. Time is critical and failure could doom human civilization as we know it. The President, a dying general who discovered it, and Pete's team are the only people who know the artifact exists. At least, that's what they believe. Farrell takes the reader to the ancient Sumerian culture where humans displayed a quantum leap in mathematics and human development, as if tutored by a higher form. The author also tackles the present as higher beings watch over humankind to make sure to avert annihilation via newfound discovery of nuclear power.

Genesis Logs
Author: Gary W. Babb
Publisher: Fiction4All
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
Capt. Nick Johns, a wounded and quadriplegic Marine Corps veteran of the Iraq War, is approached by assertive government officials, who, unbelievably, recall him to active duty to serve humanity. He is chosen because of his self-sacrificing war record and his unique ability to survive depression resulting from his debilitating injury. To be more precise, they want his disembodied brain to command and become the spaceship, Genesis, for a two hundred year deep-space flight to re-establish the human race doomed to extinction from an asteroid. One selfless but vastly superior, augmented mind must discover a way to honor his commitment to serve humanity and save the human race, even from itself. Capt. Johns must survive centuries of essential medical research and implementation, technical and societal challenges and disasters, long years of loneliness inherent to command, alien encounters, and possibly even Divine Intervention. Can the love of two women provide the balance he so desperately needs to endure or will they cause his demise?

Speaking Out of Turn
Author: Stephanie Sparling Williams
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520384229
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Speaking Out of Turn is the first monograph dedicated to the forty-year oeuvre of feminist conceptual artist Lorraine O’Grady. Examining O’Grady’s use of language, both written and spoken, Stephanie Sparling Williams charts the artist’s strategic use of direct address—the dialectic posture her art takes in relationship to its viewers—to trouble the field of vision and claim a voice in the late 1970s through the 1990s, when her voice was seen as “out of turn” in the art world. Speaking Out of Turn situates O’Grady’s significant contributions within the history of American conceptualism and performance art while also attending to the work’s heightened visibility in the contemporary moment, revealing both the marginalization of O’Grady in the past and an urgent need to revisit her art in the present.

Probability With a View Towards Statistics
Author: J. Hoffman-Jorgensen
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780412052316
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 554
Book Description
Volume II of this two-volume text and reference work concentrates on the applications of probability theory to statistics, e.g., the art of calculating densities of complicated transformations of random vectors, exponential models, consistency of maximum estimators, and asymptotic normality of maximum estimators. It also discusses topics of a pure probabilistic nature, such as stochastic processes, regular conditional probabilities, strong Markov chains, random walks, and optimal stopping strategies in random games. Unusual topics include the transformation theory of densities using Hausdorff measures, the consistency theory using the upper definition function, and the asymptotic normality of maximum estimators using twice stochastic differentiability. With an emphasis on applications to statistics, this is a continuation of the first volume, though it may be used independently of that book. Assuming a knowledge of linear algebra and analysis, as well as a course in modern probability, Volume II looks at statistics from a probabilistic point of view, touching only slightly on the practical computation aspects.

Learning from jQuery
Author: Callum Macrae
Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 1449335152
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 117
Book Description
If you’re comfortable with jQuery but a bit shaky with JavaScript, this concise guide will help you expand your knowledge of the language—especially the code that jQuery covers up for you. Many jQuery devotees write as little code as possible, but with some JavaScript under your belt, you can prevent errors, reduce overhead, and make your application code more efficient. This book explores event handling, prototypes, and working with the DOM and AJAX through examples and lots of code. You’ll learn common conventions and patterns in JavaScript and—if you’ve never coded with JavaScript before—a tutorial will take you through the basics. Enhance your jQuery code by using object constructors and prototypes Reduce overhead and gain more control by handling events with JavaScript Work with the DOM much faster with JavaScript than you can with jQuery Send a few AJAX requests without having to load the entire jQuery library Understand the importance of JavaScript code standards, comments, code reuse, and anti-patterns Enlist JavaScript resources, such as a good IDE, a syntax checker, and version control
