Linda's Weapons and Battles
Linda first shared her biography the year her granddaughter was born. This new life made her reflect about the battles she had fought and the weapons she had used. Were they the proper ones? A result of culture? Was anyone hurt? While pondering, she also wanted to inspire other women sharing her adventures. A simple shack in the outback of Brazil was her birthplace. Linda grew up as a happy and hyperactive child and started working when she was seven years old to help the family’s survival. However, with ten children who survived, the family was forced to give some of the girls away to other homes as young maids. Linda was sent to a city when she was 13, spending her adolescence submitted ...
LATIN 2006: Theoretical Informatics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium, Latin American Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2006, held in March 2006. The 66 revised full papers presented together with seven invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 224 submissions. The papers presented are devoted to a broad range of topics in theoretical computer science with a focus on algorithmics and computations related to discrete mathematics as well as on cryptography, data compression and Web applications.
LATIN 2000: Theoretical Informatics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference, Latin American Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2000, held in Punta del Est, Uruguay, in April 2000. The 42 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 87 submissions from 26 countries. Also included are abstracts or full papers of several invited talks. The papers are organized in topical sections on random structures and algorithms, complexity, computational number theory and cryptography, algebraic algorithms, computability, automata and formal languages, and logic and programming theory.
Navigating the Future
Psychologists now understand that identity is not fixed, but fluid and highly dependent on environment. In times of stress, conflict, or change, people often adapt by presenting themselves in different ways and emphasizing different social affiliations. With changing demographics creating more complex social groupings, it is important to understand the costs and benefits of the way social groups are categorized, and the way individuals understand, cope with, and employ their varied social identities. Navigating the Future, edited by Geraldine Downey, Jacquelynne Eccles, and Celina Chatman, answers that call with a wealth of empirical data and expert analysis. Navigating the Future focuses on...

Moritz Steinschneider. The Hebrew Translations of the Middle Ages and the Jews as Transmitters
This book surveys Hebrew manuscripts of Aristotelian philosophy and logic. It presents a translation and revision of part of Moritz Steinschneider’s monumental Die Hebraeischen Übersetzungen des Mittelalters und die Juden als Dolmetscher (The Hebrew Translations of the Middle Ages and the Jews as Interpreters). This resource was first published in 1893. It remains to this day the authoritative account of the transmission and development of Arabic and Latin, and, by way of those languages, Greek culture to medieval and renaissance Jews. The editors have updated Steinschneider’s bibliography. They have also judiciously revised some of his scholarly judgments. In addition, the volume provi...
Women and Revolution in Africa, Asia, and the New World
The contributors use a variety of theoretical approaches to analyze how women as a class have experienced specific twentieth-century revolutions. They identify the issues that prompted women to participate in the struggles, the roles they played, the contributions they made, and their hopes for better lives for themselves as women in the post-revolutionary society.
LATIN 2012: Theoretical Informatics
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 10th Latin American Symposium on Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2012, held in Arequipa, Peru, in April 2012. The 55 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 153 submissions. The papers address a variety of topics in theoretical computer science with a certain focus on algorithms, automata theory and formal languages, coding theory and data compression, algorithmic graph theory and combinatorics, complexity theory, computational algebra, computational biology, computational geometry, computational number theory, cryptography, theoretical aspects of databases and information retrieval, data structures, networks, logic in computer science, machine learning, mathematical programming, parallel and distributed computing, pattern matching, quantum computing and random structures.
Annual Report 2010
The Council on Foreign Relations' (CFR) 2010 Annual Report demonstrates CFR's role as a trusted, independent source for information and analysis on the policy challenges facing the United States and the world. There was no shortage of subjects to focus on this past year, and during a time of such political divisiveness in Washington, the nonpartisan mission of this institution was more important than ever. Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, concerns about Iran and North Korea, and a growing U.S. fiscal deficit were just a few of the issues at the forefront of debates in this country. CFR worked hard to address geopolitical and geoeconomic matters, in addition to other priorities including climate...
