In this substantive yet accessible book, pioneering software designer Alexander Stepanov and his colleague Daniel Rose illuminate the principles of generic programming and the mathematical concept of abstraction on which it is based, helping you write code that is both simpler and more powerful. If you’re a reasonably proficient programmer who can think logically, you have all the background you’ll need. Stepanov and Rose introduce the relevant abstract algebra and number theory with exceptional clarity. They carefully explain the problems mathematicians first needed to solve, and then show how these mathematical solutions translate to generic programming and the creation of more effective and elegant code. To demonstrate the crucial role these mathematical principles play in many modern applications, the authors show how to use these results and generalized algorithms to implement a real-world public-key cryptosystem. As you read this book, you’ll master the thought processes necessary for effective programming and learn how to generalize narrowly conceived algorithms to widen their usefulness without losing efficiency. You’ll also gain deep insight into the value of mathematics to programming—insight that will prove invaluable no matter what programming languages and paradigms you use. You will learn about <ul>
<li> How to generalize a four thousand-year-old algorithm, demonstrating indispensable lessons about clarity and efficiency </li>
<li> Ancient paradoxes, beautiful theorems, and the productive tension between continuous and discrete </li>
<li> A simple algorithm for finding greatest common divisor (GCD) and modern abstractions that build on it </li>
<li> Powerful mathematical approaches to abstraction </li>
<li> How abstract algebra provides the idea at the heart of generic programming </li>
<li> Axioms, proofs, theories, and models: using mathematical techniques to organize knowledge about your algorithms and data structures </li>
<li> Surprising subtleties of simple programming tasks and what you can learn from them </li>
<li> How practical implementations can exploit theoretical knowledge </li> </ul>

Dogs at Large weaves together the struggles of two women as they confront the slings and arrows of our Matrixed world. Because they live in the information age, they have turned to the Internet for guidance with their current conflicts. Here they discover a double edged sword for, although information may be powerful, too much can be overwhelming. They soon realize that a fine line exists in cyberspace ranging from the usual array of charlatans and false prophets to a remarkable community of like-minded people whose goal is to save the planet. It is to the later that this book is dedicated. On one level this is a story about how we go to bat for what we love the most. On another, it as multi-dimensional as the changes that are in store for the human race. To sum it all up: God is truly alive; magic is truly afoot.

In January 2018, Randall Keith Beane was railroaded into a trial in the Eastern District Court of Tennessee. Though hardly a hardened criminal-his crime being more of the white collar variety- Randy was found guilty and sentenced to thirteen years in prison. All this came about because he committed the cardinal sin of going up against the Federal Reserve by accessing an account which existed under his name and social security number. The case was fraught with enough corruption on the part of the prosecution to declare the verdict unconstitutional, and thereby void. Nevertheless, Randy remains in custody. This is his story so far, and after reading it, I hope you will add your prayers and energy towards his immediate release.

In this book you will read many examples of rich literacy conversations between a teacher and his 8th grade students that never would have occurred face to face in the classroom. These conversations take place online when 8th graders write to their teacher about the books they're interested in reading and choosing to read independently. Students write about what happens when they read or don't read, how they feel about reading, how they're connecting with characters and ideas, why they don't have enough time to read, and what their reading goals are. And their teacher writes back to them. Every week. After each conversation you will read some "meta-talk" that shines a light on what the conversation has taught us about this language learner and how this "data"is informing our beliefs and practices. Embedded within the chapters are suggested resources (articles, book recommendations, links, websites, blogs, etc.) you can follow should you want to read more in that chapter. What these students reveal about their own literacy development- their successes, their challenges, their lives- and how their teacher nudges them along socially, emotionally and academically, teach us the value and power of one practical, authentic literacy tool- the Reading Conversation Journal.

Sci-Fi is often depicted as being about how humans would fit into an alien galaxy. 
But what if we didn't fit? 
What if we were the odd ones out, the exotic and unfamiliar? 
In a galaxy where almost every species is protected by rigid shells or protective scales, our pink, fleshy forms make us appear as soft and vulnerable in the eyes of others. When everyone physically towers over us we seem weak and almost helpless. But humanity is a complex and adaptable species, just full of surprises ready for unsuspecting aliens to discover...
