Compared to What?: An Introduction to the Anaylsis of Algorithms

W. H. Freeman, 1991

I am very pleased to have this new book in the Aho/Ullman series Principles of Computer Science. I see this book as a major step toward making computer science theory accessible to the wide range of students who need to know the subject. It covers a good segment of the classical material on data structures and algorithms, but it does so in a...

The Lady Tasting Tea: How Statistics Revolutionized Science in the Twentieth Century

W. H. Freeman, 2001

Science is inextricably linked with mathematics. Statistician David Salsburg examines the development of ever-more-powerful statistical methods for determining scientific truth in The Lady Tasting Tea, a series of historical and biographical sketches that illuminate without alienating the mathematically timid. Salsburg, who has worked...

The Fractal Geometry of Nature

W. H. Freeman, 1983

Imagine an equilateral triangle. Now, imagine smaller equilateral triangles perched in the center of each side of the original triangle--you have a Star of David. Now, place still smaller equilateral triangles in the center of each of the star's 12 sides. Repeat this process infinitely and you have a Koch snowflake, a mind-bending geometric...

Foundations of Computer Science: C Edition (Principles of Computer Science Series)

W. H. Freeman, 1994

Aho and Ullman have created a C version of their groundbreaking text. As in that text, this book combines the theoretical foundations of computing with essential discrete mathematics. It follows the same organizations as its predecessor, with all examples and exercises in C.

This book was motivated by the desire we and others have had to...

Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry, Fourth Edition

W. H. Freeman, 2004

The fourth edition of Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry stays true to the vision of its predecessors while embracing the advances made in biochemical research since the previous edition. As always, the book presents the fundamentals of biochemistry through selected topics, and emphasizes the most important recent developments and applications...

Gravitation (Physics Series)

W. H. Freeman, 1973

This is a textbook on gravitation physics (Einstein's "general relativity" or "geometrodynamics"). It supplies two tracks through the subject. The first track is focused on the key physical ideas. It assumes, as mathematical prerequisite, only vector analysis and simple partial-differential equations. It is suitable for a...

Molecular Cell Biology

W. H. Freeman, 2003

Like ourselves, the individual cells that form our bodies can grow, reproduce, process information, respond to stimuli, and carry out an amazing array of chemical reactions. These abilities define life. We and other multicellular organisms contain billions or trillions of cells organized into complex structures, but many organisms consist of a...
