Book Description
Florham Park, New Jersey, in place for nearly 300 years, is best known for its shining symbol of endurance, the Little Red Schoolhouse. Since 1866 it has stood in the center of town, resisting time, the elements, and the threat of demolition. Known first as Hoppingtown, the village became Afton (after the English river) in 1876. In 1899 millionaires Florence and Hamilton Twombly insisted that the village split from Chatham Township to become Florham Park, a name derived from the first syllables of the couple's first names. The name of the village was not a matter of vanity; the Twomblys, in creating a separate borough, reduced their tax burden by only $200. After World War II, the estates of two other millionaires, Dr. Leslie Ward and Lloyd W. Smith, were used for much of the area's real estate development. The town quickly became suburban, with industrial parks, commercial centers, and shopping malls. It is also the home of the College of St. Elizabeth and Fairleigh Dickinson University. This book provides rarely seen views of the borough's distinctive, turn-of-the-century kerosene lanterns, the large ice-cutting industry, the first years of the fire department, and early farming families. A richly illustrated volume, Florham Park serves as an introduction to the community, its Twombly mansion (now the heart of Fairleigh Dickenson University), the notable Afton Restaurant, the widely known roller skating rink, and the borough's citizens.

Book Description
The second edition of this timely, definitive, and popular book continues to pursue the question: what is the most efficient way to pack a large number of equal spheres in n-dimensional Euclidean space? The authors also continue to examine related problems such as the kissing number problem, the covering problem, the quantizing problem, and the classification of lattices and quadratic forms. Like the first edition, the second edition describes the applications of these questions to other areas of mathematics and science such as number theory, coding theory, group theory, analog-to-digital conversion and data compression, n-dimensional crystallography, and dual theory and superstring theory in physics. Results as of 1992 have been added to the text, and the extensive bibliography - itself a contribution to the field - is supplemented with approximately 450 new entries.

Book Description
Do you wish to be a target? No, no one does. However, in this electronic 'brave new world' (with apologies to Aldous Huxley), we have transitioned from hunter to hunted. Also, with computers playing a dominant role in everyday life, the entire world is now on realtime, living in a world of websites, passwords and smartphones. With the acceptance of our electronic world, there is now the expectation that we can enjoy the use of our electronic devices. But wait! Hold it a minute! We have to remember that we also carry along with us the baggage of progress - electronic thieves and pickpockets, and their tools - including the Dark Web. This is not to mention the unethical individuals and organizations that have mushroomed. To use an old school comparison, the unprincipled and unethical are "as thick as thieves" in our present world. The ubiquitous use of electronics to organize and simplify our lives has demanded that our electronic technical age develop a new genre of "fix-it " professionals. Our CelebrityExperts(R) and authors in this book are ' the handymen' (technical men and women) of the future. Fixing a wagon wheel in the 'old wild west ' was one thing, but in the present computer age, our new generation of " fixer uppers" - talented technical people -fix, maintain and protect our complex electronic devices and systems. The authors in this book are at the forefront of our protective wall. You will read how they effectively combat the sleazy elements of humanity that are determined to steal our data, dollars and domains. They are our cybersecurity force of the future!

Book Description
The silver Airstreams and neon signs of the classic American diner brighten New Jersey's highways and Main Streets. But the intrinsic role they have played in the state's culture and industry for more than one hundred years is much more than eggs-over-easy and coffee. Diners are the state's ultimate gathering places--at any moment, high school students, CEOs, construction workers and tourists might be found at a counter chatting with the waitresses and line cooks. Jerseyans yearn for lost favorites like the Excellent Diner and Prout's Diner and still gather at beloved haunts like the Bendix and Tick Tock Diners. Although the industry is all but gone today, New Jersey was once the hub of diner manufacturing, making mobile eateries that fed hungry Americans as far away as the West Coast. Author Michael C. Gabriele offers this delicious history--collected from interviews with owners, patrons and experts--and indulges in many fond memories of New Jersey diners.
