Weighting Evidence in Language and Literature
by Barron BrainerdIn recent years, there has been a tremendous development in the area of quantitative and statistical analysis of linguistic and literary data, generated, no doubt, by extensive advances in computer technology and their relatively easy availability to scholars. However, except for a few rather specialized examples, there has been no truly introductory text in statistics and quantitative analysis devoted to the needs of language scholars. This work was written especially to fill the gap. It introduces a mathematically naïve reader to those statistical tools which are applicable in modern quantitative text and language analysis, and does this in terms of simple examples dealing exclusively with language and literature. Exercises are included throughout.
Weise statt Smart: Intelligentes Wohnen auf der nächsten Stufe
by Gerhard LeitnerDer Smarthome Sektor boomt, dennoch ist eine flächendeckenden Verbreitung nicht absehbar. Die entsprechende technische Basis ist zwar vorhanden, es sind aber sowohl technische als auch sozio- und psychologische Faktoren, die die Mehrheit der potenziellen Nutzer davor zurückschrecken lassen, sich ein Smart Home anzuschaffen. Beispiele dafür sind die fehlende Interoperabilität am Markt verfügbarer Systeme, eine bestehende Technikskepsis mit Befürchtungen die Kontrolle zu verlieren, aber auch im Sinne von Überwachung, dem Schutz von Daten und Privatsphäre oder aber die Kosten/Nutzen-Analyse. Das Buch soll aus der Perspektive einer ganzheitlich betrachteten „User Experience“ Möglichkeiten aufzeigen, zukünftig individuelle und maßgeschneiderte Smarthome Lösungen zu erhalten – im Sinne einer feingranularen Abstufung anstelle eines Alles-oder-Nichts-Prinzips.
WEIZAC: An Israeli Pioneering Adventure in Electronic Computing (SpringerBriefs in History of Science and Technology)
by Leo Corry Raya LeviathanThe book tells the unique story of WEIZAC, an early computer built by a “new nation” in the early 1950s.

The book draws on a wealth of documents and historical insights to reveal the processes and powers that led to the successful completion of the project and, as well as its actual impact on scientific activities in Israel, and on the rise of a local computing community.Based on archival data, the book shows how a synergy of personal dedication together with an organizational and national mission that links the Zionist vision with science and technology for the Jewish people helped to achieve a well-defined goal.The book offers intriguing insights and refreshing perspectives to all readers interested in the Zionist movement or in the history of computing.

Welcome to the Machine: Science, Surveillance and the Culture of Control
by Derrick Jensen George Draffan[Back Cover[ Tiny ID chips track every car, shirt, and razor blade purchased from corporate manufacturers. Governments and multinational corporations gather information on every citizen's race, family life, credit record, buying preferences, employment history, favorite TV shows, telephone conversations-and can surreptitiously peruse e-mails. Exoskeleton armor makes soldiers invincible, while mind-altering drugs make them incapable of remorse. In Welcome to the Machine, award-winning authors Derrick Jensen and George Draffan reveal the modern culture of the machine, where corporate might makes technology right, government money feeds the greed for mad science, and absolute surveillance leads to absolute control. Through meticulous research and fiercely personal narrative, Jensen and Draffan move beyond journalism and expose to question our civilization's very mode of existence. Welcome to the Machine challenges our submission to the institutions and technologies built to rob us of all that makes us human-our connection to the land, our kinship with one another, our place in the living world.
