1973 - O ano que reinventou a MPB
Em 1973, algo enigmático faz com que a música brasileira produza uma quantidade incomum de discos que teimariam em resistir ao tempo, não só por sua alta dose de inovação, mas também pela quantidade generosa de estreantes que os assinam. Sem nenhuma pretensão de destronar seu maior rival, 1968 (“o ano que não terminou”), este livro aponta para a eternidade particular de 1973, ao reunir olhares individuais de cinquenta escritores para 50 álbuns no ano em que 1973 completa 40 anos. Jornalistas, artistas e outros notáveis enriquecem a leitura com seus pontos de vista e percepções particulares, acrescendo dinamismo e refinando ainda mais seu conteúdo. Contudo, tanto o idealizador do livro como os autores não pretendem fornecer explicações para um fenômeno inexplicável em sua própria essência, apenas ratificam a certeza absoluta do mistério que envolverá para sempre 1973 – o ano que reinventou a MPB.
Artificial Intelligence and Games
This is the first textbook dedicated to explaining how artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can be used in and for games. After introductory chapters that explain the background and key techniques in AI and games, the authors explain how to use AI to play games, to generate content for games and to model players. The book will be suitable for undergraduate and graduate courses in games, artificial intelligence, design, human-computer interaction, and computational intelligence, and also for self-study by industrial game developers and practitioners. The authors have developed a website (http://www.gameaibook.org) that complements the material covered in the book with up-to-date exercises, lecture slides and reading.

Favela
Janice Perlman wrote the first in-depth account of life in the favelas, a book hailed as one of the most important works in global urban studies in the last 30 years. Now, in Favela, Perlman carries that story forward to the present. Re-interviewing many longtime favela residents whom she had first met in 1969--as well as their children and grandchildren--Perlman offers the only long-term perspective available on the favelados as they struggle for a better life. Perlman discovers that while educational levels have risen, democracy has replaced dictatorship, and material conditions have improved, many residents feel more marginalized than ever. The greatest change is the explosion of drug and arms trade and the high incidence of fatal violence that has resulted. Yet the greatest challenge of all is job creation--decent work for decent pay. If unemployment and under-paid employment are not addressed, she argues, all other efforts will fail to resolve the fundamental issues. Foreign Affairs praises Perlman for writing "with compassion, artistry, and intelligence, using stirring personal stories to illustrate larger points substantiated with statistical analysis."
