One of the most moving narratives from the American Revolution is the first presidential administration and the many precedents set by George Washington. While media historians have extensively analyzed screen portrayals of the more sensational events of America in the 1750s to the 1790s, far less attention has been paid to portrayals of the first presidency and the character of George Washington in film, television and other formats. This book addresses that gap by providing the most comprehensive analysis of the character of George Washington on screen. Divided into two parts, the book begins with an analysis of how the Washington character has evolved through time and screen media, from early silent films to modern multimedia products. In Part II, a filmography documents each piece of screen media that features a representation of Washington. It includes silent films, theatrical films, cartoons, television and screen media from the 21st century, such as streaming, video games and multimedia presentations. Arranged alphabetically, each entry includes format type, production details, crew and cast lists and a brief description of Washington's character in relation to the plot.

Cosa dovremmo portare a termine, o lasciare incompiuto, in un giorno o in un anno? Quanto dobbiamo aspettare un’offerta migliore quando vogliamo comprare una casa o un'automobile? Quale equilibrio dovremmo trovare tra quello che è nuovo e quello che ci è familiare? Questi possono sembrare dilemmi squisitamente umani, ma non è così. I computer, come le persone, devono fare i conti con spazio e tempo limitati. Gli informatici quindi affrontano dilemmi simili da decenni e le soluzioni che hanno trovato hanno tanto da insegnarci. Questo sorprendente libro mostra come gli algoritmi sviluppati per le macchine possano dare risposte anche a problemi molto umani. Per esempio viene spiegato come pianificare tutto nel modo migliore oppure quando lasciare le cose al caso, ma anche come affrontare scelte importanti e come connettersi al meglio con gli altri. Dalla ricerca di un coniuge a quella di un parcheggio, dall'organizzazione della casella di posta alla pianificazione del futuro, questo libro trasforma la saggezza dell'informatica in strategie utili per la vita quotidiana.

Cum îți poți face ordine în bibliotecă, în Inbox sau în dulap și când e bine să nu exagerezi cu aranjatul, ca să nu pierzi timpul? Când să te încrezi în intuiție și când să lași lucrurile la voia întâmplării? Unde se află echilibrul între activitățile obișnuite și cele noi? Autorii îți vor răspunde la aceste întrebări și la multe altele și îți vor demonstra că locul algoritmilor nu este doar în manualele școlare.
