Computing with logic / Maier, D., Warren, D.S.
This authoritative reference work investigates the roots of the Sacred Harp, the central collection of the deeply influential and long-lived southern tradition of shape-note singing. Where other studies of the Sacred Harp have focused on the sociology of present-day singers and their activities, David Warren Steel and Richard H. Hulan concentrate on the regional culture that produced the Sacred Harp in the nineteenth century and delve deeply into history of its authors and composers. They trace the sources of every tune and text in the Sacred Harp, from the work of B. F. White, E. J. King, and their west Georgia contemporaries who helped compile the original collection in 1844 to the contrib...
This supplemental text is an historical account of the beginning years of the social studies. Using the 1916 Social Studies report as a base, the book outlines the issues, contexts, and individuals that were influential in the genesis of the seminal social studies prototype program. The author explains that many of our present interests such as critical thinking, decision making, inquiry, reflective thinking, foundational studies, and cultural literacy can be found within the texts of the 1916 social studies program. Saxe also shows that the roots of the social studies program are found in the social sciences and not the traditional history curriculum. Included are chronological time lines that serve to illustrate the growth of the social studies, as well as an extensive bibliography of the primary foundational works of the social studies, including the 1916 report. These materials greatly enhance the value of Saxe's work for social studies educators and students.
This study concludes that many aspects of delayed development are not the result of visual impairment itself, but rather of environmental variables that tend to accompany it, after summarizing and interpreting the research literature on infants and children with visual impairments.
This book presents the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Logic Programming and Knowledge Representation, LPKR'97, held in Port Jefferson, NY, USA, in October 1997. The eight revised full papers presented have undergone a two-round reviewing process; also included is a comprehensive introduction surveying the state of the art in the area. The volume is divided into topical sections on disjunctive semantics, abduction, priorities, and updates.
Essentials of Rubin's Pathology, Sixth Edition, is a condensed version of the main title, Rubin's Pathology, 6e. Targeted to students in allied health fields, including dentistry, nursing, physical therapy, physician assistant, chiropractic, and occupational therapy, Essentials of Rubin's Pathology follws the same format as Rubin's Pathology, covering principles and mechanisms of pathology in the first section and organ-specific pathology in the second section. Essentials extracts key information on pathogenesis, epidemiology, and clinical features of diseases. Illustrations -- whether schematic or photographic -- are also all derived from the main text. A companion Website will offer the fully searchable online text, case studies, audio review questions, Podcasts, and an image bank and test generator for faculty.
For more than a decade, Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science Conferences have been providing an annual forum for the presentation of new research results in India and abroad. This year, 119 papers from 20 countries were submitted. Each paper was reviewed by at least three reviewers, and 33 papers were selected for presentation and included in this volume, grouped into parts on type theory, parallel algorithms, term rewriting, logic and constraint logic programming, computational geometry and complexity, software technology, concurrency, distributed algorithms, and algorithms and learning theory. Also included in the volume are the five invited papers presented at theconference.

The International Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages (PADL) is a forum for researchers and practitioners to present original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation techniques for all forms of declarative concepts, especially those emerging from functional, logic, and c- straint languages. Declarative languages have been studied since the inception of computer science, and continue to be a vibrant subject of investigation today due to their applicability in current application domains such as bioinformatics, network con?guration, the Semantic Web, telecommunications software, etc. The 6th PADL Symposium was held in Dallas, Texas on June 18–19, 2004, and ...
