Book Description
The Puzzle of Poetry offers students a readable, reliable guide to understanding poetry. Instead of carving poems up into their elements, The Puzzle of Poetry describes how experienced readers of poems go about understanding them. Each line, sentence, or syntactical unit in a poem is a clue to the “puzzle.” As with crossword puzzles, figuring out the answer to one clue can help you figure out the answer to others. This book teaches the reader to check what they know in a poem against what else they know to find meaning, a systematic but creative approach that can help language to come alive. Each chapter contains a lively and personal discussion of one part of the art of reading poetry; a short guide to writing about poetry is also included. The book introduces students to a variety of poems, from Anglo-Saxon verse to Hamilton and Jay-Z.

Book Description
This book is not simply poetry but a collection of works from various times in my life. The book is very revealing as an inward voice of what was occurring at any particular time and place. It expresses the timeless pain from childhood loss to the later coming of age in not the best of circumstances. It's my way of telling a story in snippets of time. These are words of expression from an often colored and sometimes troubled past. It is the authors hope that one can see in the writing that love does win out, and the worst of circumstances can become something thought provoking and meaningful. These are truly pieces of my puzzle in poetry.

Book Description
Algorithms are the hidden methods that computers apply to process information and make decisions. Nowadays, our lives are run by algorithms. They determine what news we see. They influence which products we buy. They suggest our dating partners. They may even be determining the outcome of national elections. They are creating, and destroying, entire industries. Despite mounting concerns, few know what algorithms are, how they work, or who created them. Poems that Solve Puzzles tells the story of algorithms from their ancient origins to the present day and beyond. The book introduces readers to the inventors and inspirational events behind the genesis of the world's most important algorithms. Professor Chris Bleakley recounts tales of ancient lost inscriptions, Victorian steam-driven contraptions, top secret military projects, penniless academics, hippy dreamers, tech billionaires, superhuman artificial intelligences, cryptocurrencies, and quantum computing. Along the way, the book explains, with the aid of clear examples and illustrations, how the most influential algorithms work. Compelling and impactful, Poems that Solve Puzzles tells the story of how algorithms came to revolutionise our world.

Book Description
Using a measure of baby-book blueprints as a guide, I squared off in line with some rusted tools of time and with the help of a few weather-treated emotions. I built a solid dreamlike structure, a home for those cherished memories that, upon completion, defines me. As a shoestring poet, every subject that piques my poetic interest and has the nerve to come into contact with my emotionally charged, multicolored pen has been treated with as much respect and honesty as my talent will allow.
