”The trouble with machines is people.”: The computer as icon in post-war America: 1946–1970. $49.99 This dissertation examines the changing interface between media culture and computer technology from 1946 to 1970 as a reflection of post-war and cold war anxieties about the future of American individualism and masculinity. It is an interdisciplinary study with a methodological and theoretical grounding in cultural studies, history, technology studies and media studies. Through a close reading of print and visual media artifacts (including films), along with oral history accounts of people who helped introduce computer technology to a broad national audience, I focus on how the images and metaphors deployed to create a concrete idea of computers in the minds of consumers served to reinforce traditional national narratives concerning masculinity, American exceptionalism, power, and class privilege. During a period when computer consumption was restricted to the military and corporate industry, rhetorical strategies used to describe computers as artifacts involved associations with things and ideas already common knowledge to readers and viewers. Chapter One focuses on the initial framing of computer technology and the introduction of metaphors of intelligence during the American presidential election of 1952. Chapter Two chronicles the development of chess playing computer programs and the link between computers and Cold War totalitarianism. Chapter Three explores notions of masculinity and femininity projected upon computers in American cinema and television of the 1950′s and 1960′s. Chapter Four discusses how the metaphorical associations of the 1950′s and their successful conflation of tradition, nature, and technology, were complicated—and to some extent, contested—by the student movements of the 1960′s that sought to redefine ideas of culture, class, and gender through acts of public protest while recasting the computer as an icon of a corrupt and failing state. |

After a decade of war, disillusionment of the government, advances in civil rights, and disco, Americans became status seekers and shopaholics and the Me generation was born. Twelve narrative chapters describe the decade of decedence and its impact on popular culture including: the AIDS epidemic, preppies, Miami Vice, the Rubik’s Cube, E.T., hair bands, the advent of the personal computer, malls, Ronald Reagan, Pac-Man, Cheers, Stephen King, Michael Jackson, the shuttle Challenger explosion, Bonfire of the Vanities, music videos, Roseanne, the power suit, Less Than Zero, rap music, and The Cosby Show, among many others.Chapters on Everyday America and the World of Youth describe the important changes in American society, from Ronald Reagan’s War on Drugs, to latch-key kids, to Black Monday. The following ten chapters explore the many aspects of popular culture-everything from advertising to fashion, literature to music, travel to the visual arts-that influenced Americans in the eighties. Supplemental resources include a timeline of important events, an extensive bibliography for further reading and a subject index. |

A Better Pencil : Readers, Writers, and the Digital Revolution $18.95 Computers, now the writer’s tool of choice, are still blamed by skeptics for a variety of ills, from speeding writing up to the point of recklessness, to complicating or trivializing the writing process, to destroying the English language itself. A Better Pencil puts our complex, still-evolving hate-love relationship with computers and the internet into perspective, describing how the digital revolution influences our reading and writing practices, and how the latest technologies differ from what came before. The book explores our use of computers as writing tools in light of the history of communication technology, a history of how we love, fear, and actually use our writing technologies–not just computers, but also typewriters, pencils, and clay tablets. Dennis Baron shows that virtually all writing implements–and even writing itself–were greeted at first with anxiety and outrage: the printing press disrupted the “almost spiritual connection” between the writer and the page; the typewriter was “impersonal and noisy” and would “destroy the art of handwriting.” Both pencils and computers were created for tasks that had nothing to do with writing. Pencils, crafted by woodworkers for marking up their boards, were quickly repurposed by writers and artists. The computer crunched numbers, not words, until writers saw it as the next writing machine. Baron also explores the new genres that the computer has launched: email, the instant message, the web page, the blog, social-networking pages like MySpace and Facebook, and communally-generated texts like Wikipedia and the Urban Dictionary, not to mention YouTube. Here then is a fascinating history of our tangled dealings with a wide range of writing instruments, from ancient papyrus to the modern laptop. With dozens of illustrations and many colorful anecdotes, the book will enthrall anyone interested in language, literacy, or writing. |

A Course on Mathematical Logic $54.95 This is a short, distinctive, modern, and motivated introduction to mathematical logic for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics and computer science. Any mathematician who is interested in knowing what logic is concerned with and who would like to learn Gödel’s incompleteness theorems should find this book particularly convenient. The treatment is thoroughly mathematical, and the entire subject has been approached like a branch of mathematics. Serious efforts have been made to make the book suitable for the classroom as well as for self-reading. The book does not strive to be a comprehensive encyclopedia of logic. Still, it gives essentially all the basic concepts and results in mathematical logic. The book prepares students to branch out in several areas of mathematics related to foundations and computability such as logic, axiomatic set theory, model theory, recursion theory, and computability. The main prerequisite for this book is the willingness to work at a reasonable level of mathematical rigor and generality.Shashi Mohan Srivastava is a Professor at the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, India. He is also the author of A Course on Borel Sets, GTM 180. |

A Deeper, Darker Truth $17.3 In the late 1980s, Tom Wilson, a retired research and development engineer with US Steel Corporation, designed a state-of-the-art image processing and computer analysis system using technology already employed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. In doing so, he perfected a method (based solely on the physics of light) that could extract information from materials and images that were beyond human visual capabilities. Tom could, for example, detect flaws in a steel plate. This accepted methodology allowed him to serve as a consulting technical expert in criminal law cases where his image processing was accepted as hard evidence in American courts of law. For more than a decade, Tom Wilson applied his computer image processing system to countless images of the Kennedy assassination. He stripped away layers of information to reveal truths that had never before been known. Some of his findings include: o Shooters behind the picket fence on the grassy knoll. o Alteration of the Zapruder film. o Fakery of the Oswald backyard photographs. o An individual in the “sniper’s window” of the Texas School Book Depository who was not Lee Harvey Oswald. o An exit wound in the back of President Kennedy’s head (just as the doctors who attended the President at Parkland Hospital had described.) o Exact location of the final and fatal head shot. o Alteration of autopsy x-rays and photographs contained in the National Archives. Reading like a mesmerizing whodunit murder mystery, A Deeper, Darker Truth chronicles Tom Wilson’s evolving series of startling discoveries that show President Kennedy was assassinated by a group of assassins on November 22, 1963. |

A Future Wilderness: The Journey of Heaven and Earth $21.48 Gnak Chopinsky was making news in the academic world with his thesis in habitology. It was a challenge to the renown Dr. J. P. Innocae to compete with such a young scholar. The lead position coordinating navigational systems being developed by the intersolar colloqium was at stake. A rare glimpse of the genius that encapsulates the behavior of mankind’s future in deep space is shown. The journey has an exceptional tail to give us. We may take for granted everyday a world of research and development mystifying people. The scientific community struggles with the same human nature that drives each of us. When the minds of science get together to develope technology for the betterment of humanity, we seldom get to go on the inside of that research. These stories are of the people that brainstorm about our future, and what they intend to do. StationNT5Bmedia artist Hanna Smith said “design pictures for the interior of the book were fascinating. They have a strikingly close resemblance to real science illustrations.” Unlike his previous book, “A Modern Wilderness – Memoirs, Legends, and Rural 21st Century America”, which is an easy read, this book may be considered challenging and includes some technically difficult reading.. The understanding of computers is not required to enjoy this book, but would probably help. Some examples of computer flow languages are in the action of space vessels exploring deep space. No offensive language is used in the “wilderness” books. They can be read out of sequence. Timeline is spread so readers understand chain of events. Critics have extrapolated an enthusiasm by generations of computer electronic savvy gamersthoroughly enjoying technical aspects of “A Future Wilderness: The Journey of Heaven and Earth”.

A Mathematical Structure for Emergent Computation $116 An understanding of emergent computation requires a profound revision of the most fundamental ideas. A noticeable attempt of such a rethinking is a world view in which natural systems are seen not as separate entities but as integrated parts of a unified whole. The book for the first time presents such a mathematical structure, which remarkably is based on integers as the single concept. As integers are considered to be the most fundamental entities irreducible to something simpler, this makes the mathematical structure a final theory, and thus we do not have to look for its explanation in terms of deeper concepts. The book is not only applicable to models of computation and optimization but also has scientific consequences, as it contributes to a rethinking of the most fundamental ideas about nature. Audience: The book is written at a level suitable for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students as well as research workers and practitioners in computer science information technology, mathematics and physics. The book is suitable as a reference or as supplementary reading material for an advanced graduate course. Only a basic knowledge of calculus is required. |

A Parents’ Guide to Avoiding the Superbaby Syndrome $4.99 Most parents share the same basic goals for their offspring. First, “I want my baby to be happy and healthy;” and second, “I want my baby to make the best of her potential.” The composition of health and happiness is not an issue for extensive argument. On the other hand, what constitutes making the most of a little person’s potential is an endless source of discussion and disagreement.A major problem is that many parents have a tendency to be too particular as they pursue this topic. By focusing so closely on the content of their child’s achievements, they miss what early education is all about. Whether it is basic capacities like reciting the alphabet, counting to 100 and categorizing shapes and colors, or amazing precocities like playing the piano, reading and writing poetry and operating a personal computer, paying too much attention to specific skills often means ignoring (or at least interfering with) what is really essential.There is plenty of evidence to suggest that if you use a variety of elaborate and expensive procedures, you can teach an infant or toddler to do just about anything. There are graduates of special programs who can recite Shakespeare well before their third birthdays, or play tiny violins quite proficiently while still in diapers.However, there is no evidence to suggest that programs designed to produce such precocities provide any lasting educational advantage. In fact, while serious, systematic scientific instruction of this sort may produce immediately remarkable results, the evidence is overwhelming that it can be rather counterproductive in the long run.During the first years of life, children are learning all the time, and they are learning to do a lot of different things that may or may not include any or all of the aforementioned activities, but above all else, they are learning how to learn – and much of that they |

A Short Introduction to Intuitionistic Logic $119 Intuitionistic logic is presented here as part of familiar classical logic which allows mechanical extraction of programs from proofs. to make the material more accessible, basic tchniques are presented first for propositional logic; Part II contains extensions to predicate logic. This material provides an introduction and a safe background for reading research literature in logic and computer science as well as advanced monographs. Readers are assumed to be familiar with basic notions of first order logic. One device for making this book short was inventing new proofs of several theorems. The presentation is based on natural deduction. The topics include programming interpretation of intuitionistic logic by simply typed lambda-calculus (Curry-Howard isomorphism), negative translation of classical into intuitionistic logic, normalization of natural deductions, applications to category theory, Kripke models, algebraic and topological semantics, proof-search methods, interpolation theorem. The text developed from materal for several courses taught at Stanford University in 1992-1999. |

A Steel Trap Mind and Other Vignettes $1.49 During the last part of October of this year, 2006, we had a tremendous amount of rain over a period of a week, twenty inches or so. During much of that time the satellite for my computer couldn’t be contacted so I wasn’t able to get on line. Still, I can’t stay away from my computer. I finished up my last novel, Warp Point then began looking through some old files I had kept that were in a different word processing program. I had never been able to access them before, but while fooling around, I finally found the right key. The result? I discovered a few of my long lost humorous stories, plus a little vignette on psi ability. They’ve never been published. All the material I found which I thought readers might enjoy is in the collection here. I have to admit, I got some laugh-out-loud responses from my wife, Betty. I also had to get her permission before publishing one story-but that’s getting ahead of myself. Besides, if you’re like me, you’re wanting the author to quit babbling so you can get on with the reading. So here are the stories. I hope you enjoy them. |

A comparison of the performance of testlet-based computer adaptive tests and multistage tests. $49.99 Computer adaptive testing (CAT) has grown both in research and implementation. Test construction and security issues, however, have led many to reconsider the merits of CAT. Multistage testing (MST) is an alternative adaptive test design that purportedly addresses CAT’s shortcomings. Yet considerably less research has been conducted on MST. Also, most research in adaptive testing has been based on item response theory (IRT). Many tests now make use of testlets—bundles of items administered together, often based on a common stimulus. The use of testlets violates local independence, a fundamental assumptions of IRT. Testlet response theory (TRT) is a relatively new measurement model designed to measure testlet-based tests. Few studies though have examined its use in testlet-based CAT and MST designs.;This dissertation investigated the performance of testlet-based CATs and MSTs measured using the TRT model. The test designs compared included a CAT that is adaptive at the testlet level only (testlet-level CAT), a CAT that is adaptive at both the testlet and item levels (item-level CAT) and a MST design (MST). Test conditions manipulated included test length, item pool size, and examinee ability distribution. Examinee data were generated using TRT-calibrated item parameters based on data from a large-scale reading assessment. The three test designs were evaluated based on measurement effectiveness and exposure control properties.;The study found that all three adaptive test designs yielded similar and good measurement accuracy. Overall, the item-level CAT produced better measurement precision, followed by the MST design. However, the MST and CAT designs yielded better measurement precision at different areas of the ability scale. All three test designs yielded acceptable exposure control properties at the testlet level. At the item level, the testlet-level CAT produced the best overall result. The item-level CAT had less than ideal pool utilization, but was able to |

Advanced Debugging Methods $229 Object relationships in modern software systems are becoming increasingly numerous and complex, and program errors due to violations of object relationships are difficult to detect. Programmers need new tools that allow them to explore objects in a large system more efficiently and to detect broken object relationships instantaneously. Such tools incorporate approaches used in such areas as data visualization, pattern matching and extraction, database querying, active databases, and rule-based programming. The query-based debugging approach developed by the author of this book is another powerful yet efficient tool to be added to the developer’s tool chest. Advanced Debugging Methods presents practice and tools for debugging computer programs. This book proposes new powerful approaches that simplify the daunting task of debugging complex software systems. Although debugging has been addressed in numerous research papers, many of its methods have yet to be explored in a book-length format.

Alan Turing’s Automatic Computing Engine $151.98 The mathematical genius Alan Turing (1912-1954) was one of the greatest scientists and thinkers of the 20th century. Now well known for his crucial wartime role in breaking the ENIGMA code, he was the first to conceive of the fundamental principle of the modern computer-the idea of controllinga computing machine’s operations by means of a program of coded instructions, stored in the machine’s ‘memory’. In 1945 Turing drew up his revolutionary design for an electronic computing machine-his Automatic Computing Engine (‘ACE’). A pilot model of the ACE ran its first program in 1950 and theproduction version, the ‘DEUCE’, went on to become a cornerstone of the fledgling British computer industry. The first ‘personal’ computer was based on Turing’s ACE. Alan Turing’s Automatic Computing Engine describes Turing’s struggle to build the modern computer. The first detailed history of Turing’s contributions to computer science, this text is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the computer and the history of mathematics. It containsfirst hand accounts by Turing and by the pioneers of computing who worked with him. As well as relating the story of the invention of the computer, the book clearly describes the hardware and software of the ACE-including the very first computer programs. The book is intended to be accessible toeveryone with an interest in computing, and contains numerous diagrams and illustrations as well as original photographs. The book contains some previously unpublished work by Turing as well as data that has only recently been declassified, and there are in addition chapters describing Turing’s path-breaking research in the fields ofArtificial Intelligence (AI) and Artificial Life (A-Life). The book has an extensivesystem of hyperlinks to The Turing Archive for the History of Computing, an on-line library of digital facsimiles of typewritten documents by Turing and the other scientists who pioneered the electro |

Algebraic Graph Theory $79.13 Algebraic graph theory is a fascinating subject concerned with the interplay between algebra and graph theory. Algebraic tools can be used to give surprising and elegant proofs of graph theoretic facts,and there are many interesting algebraic objects associated with graphs. The authors take an inclusive view of the subject, and present a wide range of topics. These range from standard classics,such as the characterization of line graphs by eigenvalues, to more unusual areas such as geometric embeddings of graphs and the study of graph homomorphisms. The authors’ goal has been to present each topic in a self-contained fashion, presenting the main tools and ideas, with an emphasis on their use in understanding concrete examples. A substantial proportion of the book covers topics that have not appeared in book form before, and as such it provides an accessible introduction to the research literature and to important open questions in modern algebraic graph theory.This book is primarily aimed at graduate students and researchers in graph theory, combinatorics, or discrete mathematics in general.However, all the necessary graph theory is developed from scratch, so the only pre-requisite for reading it is a first course in linear algebra and a small amount of elementary group theory. It should be accessible to motivated upper-level undergraduates.Chris Godsil is a full professor in the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization at the University of Waterloo. His main research interests lie in the interactions between algebra and combinatorics, in particular the application of algebraic techniques to graphs, designs and codes.He has published more than 70 papers in these areas, is a founding editor of “The Journal of Algebraic Combinatorics” and is the author of the book “Algebraic Combinatorics”.Gordon Royle teaches in the Department of Computer Science & Software Engineering at the University of Western Australia.
