NOW A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
A Warning from the Publisher:
Many readers have questions about Lemony Snicket, author of the distressing serial concerning the trials of the charming but unlucky Baudelaire orphans, published under the collective title A Series of Unfortunate Events. Before purchasing, borrowing, or stealing this book, you should be aware that it contains the answers to some of those questions, such as the following:
1. Who is Lemony?
2. Is there a secret organization I should know about?
3. Why does Lemony Snicket spend his time researching and writing distressing books concerning the Baudelaire orphans?
4. Why do all of Lemony Snicket's books contain a sad dedication to a woman named Beatrice?
5. If there's nothing out there, what was that noise?
Our advice to you is that you find a book that answers less upsetting questions than this one. Perhaps your librarian, bookseller, or parole officer can recommend a book that answers the question, "Aren't ponies adorable?"

Описание: A TAR HEEL MARCHES is set against the backdrop of the beginning civil rights movement of the 1960s. It is the true story of a man named, Fred, who struggles to leave the poverty of his Appalachian Mountains to make a new life for himself. In Part I, the author explains how he made the journey to Berea College without financial or emotional support from his family. At Berea, he befriended black students and, through his associations with them, he came to know and experience discrimination and abuse that they had known all their lives. He paints a vivid picture, sometimes hilarious, other times tragic, of life on the Berea campus from 1961-65. In Part II, the author discusses the struggles of students to get permission to go to Montgomery, and then he gives a personal testimony of what it was like to be a part of one of the largest civil rights marches in the history of the country. Chapter by chapter, the reader travels with the Berea group on the journey southward. Step by step, the author takes you on the long march through the streets of Montgomery. This book is a story of hope, justice, and equality. It champions the triumph of the human will to define itself and live in the power of belief that "God Hath Made of One Blood All Peoples of the Earth."

Автор: Berea Anamaria Название: Emergence of Communication in Socio-Biological Networks ISBN: 3319878212 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783319878218 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 46570.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
This book integrates current advances in biology, economics of information and linguistics research through applications using agent-based modeling and social network analysis to develop scenarios of communication and language emergence in the social aspects of biological communications. The book presents a model of communication emergence that can be applied both to human and non-human living organism networks. The model is based on economic concepts and individual behavior fundamental for the study of trust and reputation networks in social science, particularly in economics; it is also based on the theory of the emergence of norms and historical path dependence that has been influential in institutional economics. Also included are mathematical models and code for agent-based models to explore various scenarios of language evolution, as well as a computer application that explores language and communication in biological versus social organisms, and the emergence of various meanings and grammars in human networks.
Emergence of Communication in Socio-Biological Networks offers both a completely novel approach to communication emergence and language evolution and provides a path for the reader to explore various scenarios of language and communication that are not constrained to the human networks alone. By illustrating how computational social science and the complex systems approach can incorporate multiple disciplines and offer an integrated theory-model approach to the evolution of language, the book will be of interest to researchers working with computational linguistics, mathematical linguistics, and complex systems.
