Functional Programming and Input/Output (Distinguished Dissertations in Computer Science)
Functional Programming and Input/Output (Distinguished Dissertations in Computer Science)
A common attraction to functional programming is the ease with which proofs can be given of program properties. A common disappointment with functional programming is the difficulty of expressing input/output (I/O) while at the same time being able to verify programs. Here, the author shows how a theory of functional programming can be smoothly...
Randomized Algorithms
Randomized Algorithms
For many applications, a randomized algorithm is either the simplest or the fastest algorithm available, and sometimes both. This book introduces the basic concepts in the design and analysis of randomized algorithms. The first part of the text presents basic tools such as probability theory and probabilistic analysis that are frequently used in...
Bayesian Logical Data Analysis for the Physical Sciences: A Comparative Approach with Mathematica® Support
Bayesian Logical Data Analysis for the Physical Sciences: A Comparative Approach with Mathematica® Support
Bayesian inference provides a simple and unified approach to data analysis, allowing experimenters to assign probabilities to competing hypotheses of interest, on the basis of the current state of knowledge. By incorporating relevant prior information, it can sometimes improve model parameter estimates by many orders of magnitude. This book...

Geometric Folding Algorithms: Linkages, Origami, Polyhedra
Geometric Folding Algorithms: Linkages, Origami, Polyhedra
How can linkages, pieces of paper, and polyhedra be folded? The authors present hundreds of results and over 60 unsolved 'open problems' in this comprehensive look at the mathematics of folding, with an emphasis on algorithmic or computational aspects. Folding and unfolding problems have been implicit since Albrecht Dürer in the...

On the centenary of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, this book reviews the state-of-the-art research in geomagnetism, aeronomy and space weather. Written by eminent researchers from these fields, it summarises the advances in research over the past 100 years, and looks ahead to current and emerging studies on Earth's...
Art and Form: From Roger Fry to Global Modernism (Refiguring Modernism)
Art and Form: From Roger Fry to Global Modernism (Refiguring Modernism)

This important new study reevaluates British art writing and the rise of formalism in the visual arts from 1900 to 1939. Taking Roger Fry as his starting point, Sam Rose rethinks how ideas about form influenced modernist culture and the movement’s significance to art history today.

In the context of modernism,...

Architecture, Society, and Ritual in Viking Age Scandinavia: Doors, Dwellings, and Domestic Space
Architecture, Society, and Ritual in Viking Age Scandinavia: Doors, Dwellings, and Domestic Space
In this book, Marianne Hem Eriksen explores the social organization of Viking Age Scandinavia through a study of domestic architecture, and in particular, the doorway. A highly charged architectural element, the door is not merely a practical, constructional solution. Doors control access, generate movement, and demark boundaries, yet also serve...
War and Childhood in the Era of the Two World Wars (Publications of the German Historical Institute)
War and Childhood in the Era of the Two World Wars (Publications of the German Historical Institute)
The histories of modern war and childhood were the result of competing urgencies. According to ideals of childhood widely accepted throughout the world by 1900, children should have been protected, even hidden, from conflict and danger. Yet at a time when modern ways of childhood became increasingly possible for economic, social, and political...
Justice for Some: Law and the Question of Palestine
Justice for Some: Law and the Question of Palestine

Justice in the Question of Palestine is often framed as a question of law. Yet none of the Israel-Palestinian conflict's most vexing challenges have been resolved by judicial intervention. Occupation law has failed to stem Israel's settlement enterprise. Laws of war have permitted killing and destruction during Israel's...

Humanomics: Moral Sentiments and the Wealth of Nations for the Twenty-First Century (Cambridge Studies in Economics, Choice, and Society)
Humanomics: Moral Sentiments and the Wealth of Nations for the Twenty-First Century (Cambridge Studies in Economics, Choice, and Society)
While neoclassical analysis works well for studying impersonal exchange in markets, it fails to explain why people conduct themselves the way they do in their personal relationships with family, neighbors, and friends. In Humanomics, Nobel Prize-winning economist Vernon L. Smith and his long-time co-author Bart J. Wilson bring their study of...
