Lorenz
The breaking of the Enigma machine is one of the most heroic stories of the Second World War and highlights the crucial work of the codebreakers of Bletchley Park, which prevented Britain's certain defeat in 1941. But there was another German cipher machine, used by Hitler himself to convey messages to his top generals in the field. A machine more complex and secure than Enigma. A machine that could never be broken. For sixty years, no one knew about Lorenz or 'Tunny', or the determined group of men who finally broke the code and thus changed the course of the war. Many of them went to their deaths without anyone knowing of their achievements. Here, for the first time, senior codebreaker Captain Jerry Roberts tells the complete story of this extraordinary feat of intellect and of his struggle to get his wartime colleagues the recognition they deserve. The work carried out at Bletchley Park during the war to partially automate the process of breaking Lorenz, which had previously been done entirely by hand, was groundbreaking and is recognised as having kick-started the modern computer age.
The Essence Of Chaos
The study of chaotic systems has become a major scientific pursuit in recent years, shedding light on the apparently random behaviour observed in fields as diverse as climatology and mechanics. InThe Essence of Chaos Edward Lorenz, one of the founding fathers of Chaos and the originator of its seminal concept of the Butterfly Effect, presents his own landscape of our current understanding of the field. Lorenz presents everyday examples of chaotic behaviour, such as the toss of a coin, the pinball's path, the fall of a leaf, and explains in elementary mathematical strms how their essentially chaotic nature can be understood. His principal example involved the construction of a model of a boar...

The Memoir of a Schizophrenic
The Memoir of a Schizophrenic is a work of autobiographical non-fiction that delivers a powerful, moving story about the author's struggles with the devastating psychological condition of schizophrenia. It goes some way toward removing the stigma attached to mental illnesses. The author lays bare a heartbreaking journey that speaks, in its most raw form, directly to those he loves. The heart of the narrative lies in the secret strength of family, and those who take the time to read it will find this true story highly emotive and deeply touching. The story explores the darkness of a soul without hiding its light; a tale so bold and brutally honest, it is spellbinding and filled with grit. Readers will find it both encouraging and inspiring, as it is a story that communicates love, faith, hope and the message that despite annoying devilry and its mischievous energy, we can always triumph over negative thoughts.
My Body
A stunning first book of the human body for the pre-school child. Young readers can relate closely to the action pictures of real-life children in familiar, everyday situations. The simple text combines how the different parts of our bodies, muscles and senses work. Children absorb the information as they have fun finding stickers, answering simple questions or copying the actions of their friends in the pictures. They will enjoy finding a sticker bubble for Anna to blow, looking for the head of Fred the friendly skeleton, or matching the sticker labels to parts of the face. The reusable stickers mean that children can repeat the play-and-learn process time and again, and can even make their own poster!
