What a splendid addition this is to the Dolciani Mathematical Exposition series! This second set of lectures on great moments in mathematics (after 1650) is a fascinating collection of pivotal points in the historical development of mathematics...The four lectures devoted to the liberation of geometry and algebra are of particular interest. The lectures should be required reading for all teachers of mathematics. —Herbert Fremont, The Mathematics Teacher Eves is never less than tantalizing and usually inspiring...each 'great moment' has detailed exercises following it, as these have been carefully chosen to illustrate the depth of the ideas in question. —C. W. Kilmister, The London Times, Higher Education Supplement As is usual with Eves' work, the books are well written and entertaining. They give an historical background to many of the best known mathematical results, and, in addition, provide interesting pieces of information about the mathematicians involved. Eves includes relevant exercises at the end of each chapter. These are a good source of different, interesting problems, and when combined with the material in the chapter, could form the basis for a mathematical project...Eves' book provides an interesting, well-written, and enjoyable account. You won't be disappointed. —David Parrott, The Australian Mathematics Teacher

We have seen people often making the statement, ‘That one moment made the difference in my life.’ There are moments in one’s life which have made a big positive impact on the individual and on the people associated with that person. There are other moments which add to the positive impact of earlier moments. There are moments which did not make any impact on the individual and just passed off unnoticed. Maybe we can call these as neutral moments. People also experience moments which created some negative impact. The great moment was the one when you took ‘that’ decision which turned out to be the best decision. It changed your life and made enormous changes for the people associated with you either in your professional or personal life. this book is about such moments. Why does a moment become great? Who makes the moment great? Is it the individual experiencing it? Is the surrounding ambience responsible for the great moment or is it the people with whom the individual is associated? These are the questions to be debated. This book does not really teach you any technique or skill to make your moments great. The book is a collection of essays on divergent topics. The essays as you read through will trigger a debate in you through which you will develop some unique insights of your own. Insights are purely individual's experience and derivatives. These insights will be responsible to lead you to the arena of great moments.

Download Great Moments in Computing - The Complete Edition Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This is the unexpurgated, hilarious and unflinching history of computers, of the lunatics who create them and of the idiots who use them, retold in cartoon form by Mel Croucher and Robin Evans. Great Moments In Computing was the longest-running, most widely read and best loved computer cartoon strip in the world and this unique collection contains every single episode... including unpublished and previously censored versions, five entirely new strips commissioned to bring the series to a close, and behind-the-scenes secrets of how it all really happened. The series began when strip one ran in 1988 in the monthly magazine Computer Shopper from Dennis Publishing; the periodical ceased publication in 2021 with the 395th episode. Here at Acorn Books, we couldn't leave the series unfinished and so commissioned Mel and Robin to create the final five episodes to see the series reach the magic 400 mark, coming to a natural conclusion. These episodes - along with much more - can only be seen in this complete, expanded, final FINAL edition!

Download The Computer Contradictionary Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Ascertain the meaning before consulting this dictionary, warns the author of this collection of deliberately satirical misdefinitions. New computer cultures and their jargons have burgeoned since this book's progenitor, The Devil's DP Dictionary, was published in 1981. This updated version of Stan Kelly-Bootle's romp through the data processing lexicon is a response to the Unix pandemic that has swept academia and government, to the endlessly hyped panaceas offered to the MIS, and to the PC explosion that has brought computer terminology to a hugely bewildered, lay audience.' The original dictionary, a pastiche of Ambrose Bierce's famous work, parried chiefly the mainframe and mini-folklore of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. This revision adds over 550 new entries and enhances many of the original definitions. Key targets are a host of new follies crying out for cynical lexicography including: the GUI-Phooey iconoclasts, object orienteering and the piping of BLObs down the Clinton-Gore InfoPike.
