Thinking in Postscript

Addison Wesley, 1990

This book is intended to provide a practical, intriguing, and fresh look at
the PostScript programming language. PostScript is a mysterious
language, powerful and cryptic. It is expressive and complicated and yet
surprisingly simple. In order to master a programming language, you have
to learn to think like the compiler or...

How to Read a Person Like a Book

Pocket, 1990

1 cassette / 40 minutes
A multi-voice production

Explore the language that exists beyond words - the language of the body and its gestures.

Whether conscious or not of our bodies' movements, we express our feelings, attitudes, and motives through gestures that are often vague and frequently ignored....

Neural Network Design and the Complexity of Learning

MIT Press, 1990

Using the tools of complexity theory, Stephen Judd develops a formal description of associative learning in connectionist networks. He rigorously exposes the computational difficulties in training neural networks and explores how certain design principles will or will not make the problems easier.

Judd looks beyond the scope...

Innumeracy: Mathematical Illiteracy and Its Consequences (Vintage)

Vintage, 1990

Dozens of examples in innumeracy show us how it affects not only personal economics and travel plans, but explains mischosen mates, inappropriate drug-testing, and the allure of psuedo-science.

Innumeracy, an inability to deal comfortably with the fundamental notions of number and chance, plagues far too many otherwise...

Programming in the 1990's: An Introduction to the Calculation of Programmes (Texts and Monographs in Computer Science)

Springer, 1990

Programming is a fascinating and challenging subject. Unfortunately, it is rarely presented as such. Most often it is taught by "induction": features of some famous programming languages are given operational meaning (e.g. a loop "goes round and round"), a number of examples are shown, and by induction, we are asked to...

Adsorption Engineering

Elsevier Limited, 1990

...a well-written addition to the adsorption literature...should be useful for the expert or students who have some prior knowledge of adsorption. -- Reactive Polymers

Hardbound. The design of adsorption systems has essentially been based on accumulated experience gained over a long period. However, recent...

Higher Recursion Theory (Perspectives in Mathematical Logic)

Springer, 1990

Hyperarithmetic theory is the first step beyond classical recursion theory. It is the primary source of ideas and examples in higher recursion theory. It is also a crossroad for several areas of mathematical logic: in set theory it is an initial segment of Godel's L; in model theory, the least admissible set after ; in descriptive set...

An Encyclopaedia of the History of Technology

Routledge, 1990

This one-of-a-kind encyclopedia presents the entire field of technology--from rudimentary agricultural tools to communication satellites--in this first-of-its-kind reference source.

Following an introduction that discusses basic tools, devices, and mechanisms, the chapters are grouped into five parts that provide detailed information...

Elementary Theory of Numbers (Dover books on advanced mathematics)

Dover Publications, 1990

In the past few years there has been a great resurgence of interest in mathematics on both the secondary and undergraduate levels, and a growing recognition that the courses traditionally offered do not exhaust the mathematics which it is both possible and desirable to teach at those levels. Of course, not aU of modern mathematics is accessible;...

Group Theoretical Methods in Image Processing (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

Springer, 1990

These Lecture Notes are based on a series of lectures I gave at the Linkoping University Department of Electrical Engineering in 1988. In these lectures 1 tried to give an overview of the theory of representation of compact groups and some applications in the fields of image science and pattern recognition.

The participants...

Integrating Microelectronics into Gas Distribution

Taylor & Francis, 1990

This volume contains papers presented at the first and second IGT symposia on microelectronics in the gas industry. The first was held November 18–20, 1985, in Orlando, Florida. The second symposium was held September 8–10, 1986, in Fontana, Wisconsin.

The purpose of these symposia was to disseminate information on...

What is Mathematical Logic?

Dover Publications, 1990

This lively introduction to mathematical logic, easily accessible to non-mathematicians, offers an historical survey, coverage of predicate calculus, model theory, Godel’s theorems, computability and recursivefunctions, consistency and independence in axiomatic set theory, and much more. Suggestions for Further Reading. Diagrams.
