Book Description
The date: A week after tomorrow. An infection has swept the world, bringing on an epidemic of mindless attacks that leave everyone changed. Society has broken down. Survivors call the infected Freaks. But the Freaks are more than simple, mindless zombies - they are actually the result of an alien life form slowly colonising Earth, and humanity is ultimately enmeshed in a struggle for control of the planet. Part Dawn of the Dead and part Road Warrior, Domino Falls is a horrifying, exciting and strangely romantic coming-of-age story set on the edge of Apocalypse.

Book Description
It began on Freak Day—that day no one could explain, when strangers and family members alike went crazy and started biting one another. Some thought the outbreak was caused by a flu shot, others that it was a diet drug gone terribly wrong. All anyone knew is that once you were bitten and went to sleep, you woke up a freak.

Book Description
A Transition to Proof: An Introduction to Advanced Mathematics describes writing proofs as a creative process. There is a lot that goes into creating a mathematical proof before writing it. Ample discussion of how to figure out the "nuts and bolts'" of the proof takes place: thought processes, scratch work and ways to attack problems. Readers will learn not just how to write mathematics but also how to do mathematics. They will then learn to communicate mathematics effectively. The text emphasizes the creativity, intuition, and correct mathematical exposition as it prepares students for courses beyond the calculus sequence. The author urges readers to work to define their mathematical voices. This is done with style tips and strict "mathematical do’s and don’ts", which are presented in eye-catching "text-boxes" throughout the text. The end result enables readers to fully understand the fundamentals of proof. Features: The text is aimed at transition courses preparing students to take analysis Promotes creativity, intuition, and accuracy in exposition The language of proof is established in the first two chapters, which cover logic and set theory Includes chapters on cardinality and introductory topology

Book Description
Haskell is a purely functional language that allows programmers to rapidly develop clear, concise, and correct software. The language has grown in popularity in recent years, both in teaching and in industry. This book is based on the author's experience of teaching Haskell for more than twenty years. All concepts are explained from first principles and no programming experience is required, making this book accessible to a broad spectrum of readers. While Part I focuses on basic concepts, Part II introduces the reader to more advanced topics. This new edition has been extensively updated and expanded to include recent and more advanced features of Haskell, new examples and exercises, selected solutions, and freely downloadable lecture slides and example code. The presentation is clean and simple, while also being fully compliant with the latest version of the language, including recent changes concerning applicative, monadic, foldable, and traversable types.

Book Description
This book proposes to identify three long-term structures in causal reasoning - in particular, in terms of the relationship between cause and identity - that appear to be of value in categorizing and organizing various trends in philosophical thought. Such conceptual schemes involve a host of philosophical dilemmas (such as the problem of relativism), which are examined in the first chapter. A number of naturalistic and transcendental approaches to this problem are also analysed. In particular, the book attempts to construct a theoretical basis for Foucault's tripartite classification of epistemological structures in European thought. The final chapter attempts to buttress the above schema by extending the analysis from cause and identity to growth, change, and stability, critiquing certain ideas of Foucault and Heidegger, as well as examining the contemporary thought of process philosophy and complexity theory.

Author: Emanuel Derman Publisher: John Wiley & Sons ISBN: 1119944694 Category : Business & Economics Languages : en Pages : 203
Book Description
Emanuel Derman was a quantitative analyst (Quant) at Goldman Sachs, one of the financial engineers whose mathematical models became crucial for Wall Street. The reliance investors put on such quantitative analysis was catastrophic for the economy, setting off the ongoing string of financial crises that began with the mortgage market in 2007 and continues through today. Here Derman looks at why people -- bankers in particular -- still put so much faith in these models, and why it's a terrible mistake to do so. Though financial models imitate the style of physics and employ the language of mathematics, ultimately they deal with human beings. There is a fundamental difference between the aims and potential achievements of physics and those of finance. In physics, theories aim for a description of reality; in finance, at best, models can shoot only for a simplistic and very limited approximation to it. When we make a model involving human beings, we are trying to force the ugly stepsister's foot into Cinderella's pretty glass slipper. It doesn't fit without cutting off some of the essential parts. Physicists and economists have been too enthusiastic to acknowledge the limits of their equations in the sphere of human behavior--which of course is what economics is all about. Models.Behaving.Badly includes a personal account of Derman's childhood encounters with failed models--the oppressions of apartheid and the utopia of the kibbutz. He describes his experience as a physicist on Wall Street, the models quants generated, the benefits they brought and the problems, practical and ethical, they caused. Derman takes a close look at what a model is, and then highlights the differences between the successes of modeling in physics and its failures in economics. Describing the collapse of the subprime mortgage CDO market in 2007, Derman urges us to stop the naïve reliance on these models, and offers suggestions for mending them. This is a fascinating, lyrical, and very human look behind the curtain at the intersection between mathematics and human nature.

Book Description
A threat is found to mankind. For time has laid itself upon the man. Time has laid itself upon the man in that there are changes. Such changes have caused the souls of men to be placed to a time press. Like the time piece that is flipped and thus placed into motion, will the sand pieces fall in accordance to the laws assigned to it. As the sand pieces are, so has the man become. By what consideration is so to such sand pieces, will that man proceed. Though the man observes the falling of sand pieces, there is confusion. There is confusion, for mankind is found wanting in reference to what measures he declares is so. Though a world presents with law, the many are found apart from truthfulness. Yes, mankind is unable to tell of the diminishing of his soul’s condition. Man is of inability to tell of accuracy to his presenting world. Such inability has caused great confusion. Of what time is so does a world present as rearranged, displaying strange ordinances. Such ordinances, confusion, displays itself in themes, reoccurring arrangements displaying obscure realities. If such arrangements do not change, in that the man does not discover how to live, what perceived ordinances are so will kill him! Can the man determine truth from untruth as to depict that which is so? Is the man able to do such things? Is the man able to overcome such themes? Can he figure out how to live? Join the great expedition presenting to mankind, on the discord of life's meaning, through the overlying themes of the life of Caitlin Elizabeth Demery to discover how to live. Challenge life's meaning through a series of short prompts. Don’t Fall Asleep at The Helm – ADVENT includes Books I, II, and III of the Don’t Fall Asleep at The Helm series. It is recommended to purchase ADVENT to receive all books currently in the Don't Fall Asleep at The Helm Series.
