The Harlot`s Handbook: Harris`s List

2008 y.
Publisher: Spellmount
Description: Harris’s List of Covent Garden Ladies was a bestseller of the 18th century with more than 250,000 copies sold in an age before mass consumerism. Jack Harris, the so-called Pimp-General-of-All-England, published an annual guidebook detailing the names, locations, and specialties of all of London’s prostitutes. During its heyday Harris’s List was the essential accessory for any serious gentleman of pleasure, yet beyond its titillating passages lies a glimpse into the lives of numerous Georgian-era women. Ranging from the ribald to the bizarre, collected here are the funniest and most surreal of Harris’s entries. [detailed...]

The Harmonic Mind: From Neural Computation to Optimality-Theoretic GrammarVolume I: Cognitive Architecture (Bradford Books)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Despite their apparently divergent accounts of higher cognition, cognitive theories based on neural computation and those employing symbolic computation can in fact strengthen one another. To substantiate this controversial claim, this landmark work develops in depth a cognitive architecture based in neural computation but supporting formally explicit higher-level symbolic descriptions, including new grammar formalisms. Detailed studies in both phonology and syntax provide arguments that these grammatical theories and their neural network realizations enable deeper explanations of early acquisition, processing difficulty, cross-linguistic typology, and the possibility of genomically encoding universal principles of grammar. Foundational questions concerning the explanatory status of symbols for central problems such as the unbounded productivity of higher cognition are also given proper treatment. The work is made accessible to scholars in different fields of… [detailed...]

The Harold Lloyd Encyclopedia

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionHarold Lloyd, born in 1893, became one of the greatest comic actors in America. This is a compendium of all things Lloyd, with entries on noteworthy persons, recurring themes, crucial elements of Lloyd?s life (birth, education, marriage, family, hobbies, death, etc.), his prime co-stars and co-workers, the films that made him a legend (201 of them), and numerous other topics covering every facet of the man and the actor, all fully cross-referenced and accompanied by a vast collectionof images and advertisements. Lacking the vaudeville training of his chief contemporaries, Lloyd nonetheless grew quickly from a gag technician to a skilled actor. In 1917, he created his famed Glass Character, but a live bomb amongst the props maimed his hand two years later. Keeping his handicap hidden by use of a revolutionary prosthetic, he continued to both charm and enthrall audiences. `The action may be outlandish,` he said of himself, `but the characters?most… [detailed...]

The Harvard Five in New Canaan: Midcentury Modern Houses by Marcel Breuer, Landis Gores, John Johansen, Philip Johnson, Eliot Noyes, and Others

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A virtual tour of thirty-five landmark houses, 1947-1966, built in a quiet New England community. Since the fifties, `the Harvard Five` has been the catchphrase for the five architects featured in this book, who all built houses for themselves and for clients in New Canaan, Connecticut. Other architects, well known (Frank Lloyd Wright, for example) and not so well known, also contributed significant modern houses that elicited strong reactions from nearly everyone who saw them and are still astonishing today. An introductory essay by Jean Ely, `New Canaan Modern` (reprinted by permission of the New Canaan Historical Society), recounts the history of the area and how New Canaan came to be the locus of the modern movement`s experimentation in materials, construction methods, space, and form. The book is done as a `house tour` in chronological order, with photographs and floor plans. 50 color, 50 black-and-white illustrations. [detailed...]

John Steinbeck, Charles Wollenberg
The Harvest Gypsies: On the Road to the Grapes of Wrath

Publisher: —
Description: Recently listed in the Top 100 List of the Century`s Best American Journalism Gathered in this important volume are seven newspaper articles on migrant farm workers that John Steinbeck wrote for `The San Francisco News` in 1936, three years before _The Grapes of Wrath_. With the inquisitiveness of an investigative reporter and the emotional power of a novelist in his prime, Steinbeck toured the squatters` camps and Hoovervilles of California. Here he found once strong, independent farmers?the backbone of rural America?so reduced in dignity, beaten in spirit, sick, sullen, and defeated that they had been `cast down to a kind of subhumanity.` He contrasts their misery with the hope offered by government resettlement camps, where self-help committees, child nurseries, quilting and sewing projects, and decent sanitation were restoring dignity and indeed saving lives. _The Harvest Gypsies_ gives us an eyewitness account of the horrendous Dust Bowl migration, a major event… [detailed...]

Each is a short story of the scientists involved, their time and their work. Together, they formed a mosaic of modern physics: formulating relativity and quantum mechanics, finding the constituents of matter and unravelling the forces between them, understanding the working of conductors and semiconductors, discovering and explaining macroscopic quantum effects (superconductivity, superfluidity, quantum Hall effect), developing novel experimental techniques like the Geiger counter and particle accelerators, building revolutionary applications like the transistor and the laser, and observing astonishing features of our cosmos (expanding universe, cosmic background radiation).

The Haskell School of Expression: Learning Functional Programming through Multimedia

2000 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: Functional programming is a style of programming that emphasizes the use of functions (in contrast to object-oriented programming, which emphasizes the use of objects). It has become popular in recent years because of its simplicity, conciseness, and clarity. This book teaches functional programming as a way of thinking and problem solving, using Haskell, the most popular purely functional language. Rather than using the conventional (boring) mathematical examples commonly found in other programming language textbooks, the author uses examples drawn from multimedia applications, including graphics, animation, and computer music, thus rewarding the reader with working programs for inherently more interesting applications. Aimed at both beginning and advanced programmers, this tutorial begins with a gentle introduction to functional programming and moves rapidly on to more advanced topics. Details about progamming in Haskell are presented in boxes throughout the text so they can be… [detailed...]
