Octavia Hill
Octavia Hill was the 9th of eleven children in a family of no rank. With no formal education but an incessant desire to help the poorest in London she became one of the most influential women of the Victorian era. Today she is remembered chiefly as one of the founders of the National Trust.
Greene County, Ohio
"A time capsule, which had been buried under the cornerstone of the Greene County Courthouse in 1901 ... was opened at the courthouse centennial celebrations in 2001 ... [This book] contains many of the pictures and documents enclosed in [the] time capsule, with interesting supplemental photographs provided by local historical institutions of the people and places described in those documents."--P. [4] of cover.
Algebraic Methodology and Software Technology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Algebraic Methodology and Software Technology, AMAST 2004, held in Stirling, Scotland, UK in July 2004. The 35 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 5 invited talks and an invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 63 submissions. Among the topics covered are all current issues in formal methods related to algebraic approaches to software engineering including abstract data types, process algebras, algebraic specification, model checking, abstraction, refinement, model checking, state machines, rewriting, Kleene algebra, programming logic, etc.

Playing Games in Nineteenth-Century Britain and America
A vital part of daily life in the nineteenth century, games and play were so familiar and so ubiquitous that their presence over time became almost invisible. Technological advances during the century allowed for easier manufacturing and distribution of board games and books about games, and the changing economic conditions created a larger market for them as well as more time in which to play them. These changing conditions not only made games more profitable, but they also increased the influence of games on many facets of culture. Playing Games in Nineteenth-Century Britain and America focuses on the material and visual culture of both American and British games, examining how cultures of play intersect with evolving gender norms, economic structures, scientific discourses, social movements, and nationalist sentiments.
Physics of Emergence and Organization
This book is a state-of-the-art review on the Physics of Emergence. The challenge of complexity is to focus on the description levels of the observer in context-dependent situations. Emergence is not only an heuristic approach to complexity, but it also urges us to face a much deeper question ? what do we think is fundamental in the physical world?This volume provides significant and pioneering contributions based on rigorous physical and mathematical approaches ? with particular reference to the syntax of Quantum Physics and Quantum Field Theory ? dealing with the bridge-laws and their limitations between Physics and Biology, without failing to discuss the involved epistemological features.Physics of Emergence and Organization is an interdisciplinary source of reference for students and experts whose interests cross over to complexity issues.
Systems Construction and Analysis
This text provides the discrete mathematics needed as a rigorous foundation for the construction and analysis of application systems. Construction involves development within formal linguistic systems and analysis involves external assessment and measurement. The foundation provided by this book allows for many applications to be discussed in detail. A gentle introduction to discrete mathematics and formal systems allows a gradual pace of learning for the student and examines ideas before giving a serious exposition of mathematical logic that emphasizes the link between theories in formal languages and their models. The major programming paradigms are linked to approaches to specification and verified by the axiomatic method.
Breaking Your Neck is a Pain in the Butt
When I thought of the title Pain in the Butt, I meant it figuratively, since I do not even have sensation there! As I have shared my title with people through the years, the reaction is always a laugh, as I had hoped to invoke humor. I wrote it with that in mind. I hope once you read my book, you will see despite the turn my life took on that, fateful day in December, I not only survived the tragedy but went on to live an exuberant and joyful life, “Joie de Vivre.”
