Neuware - A relatable, interactive, and funny exploration of algorithms, those essential building blocks of computer science - and of everyday life - from the author of the wildly popular Bad Arguments.Algorithms -- processes that are made up of unambiguous steps and do something useful -- make up the very foundations of computer science. Yet, they also inform our choices in approaching everyday tasks, from managing a pile of clothes fresh out of the dryer to deciding what music to listen to.With Bad Choices, Ali Almossawi, presents twelve scenes from everyday life that help demonstrate and demystify the fundamental algorithms that drive computer science, bringing these seemingly elusive concepts into the understandable realms of the everyday.Readers will discover how: Matching socks can teach you about search and hash tables Planning trips to the store can demonstrate the value of stacks Deciding what music to listen to shows why link analysis is all-important Crafting a succinct Tweet draws on ideas from compression Making your way through a grocery list helps explain priority queues and traversing graphs And moreAs you better understand algorithms, you'll also discover what makes a method faster and more efficient, helping you become a more nimble, creative problem-solver, ready to face new challenges.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Alejandro Giraldo (illustrator). Hardcover. The creators of An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments return at last with a desperately timely guide to rhetoric.Tens of thousands of demonstrators packed the city's streets on Friday. The actual count was 250,000. Why tens of thousands, then, and not a quarter million?The grocer takes woke orders on its brands from a 17-year-old. The nameless 17-year-old's opinion seems not worth considering. At what age will it be?Rabbits zapped three badgers in an ambush last night, hours after six rabbits in a neighbouring town lost their lives. Were the six rabbits the sole participants in losing their own lives? Those silly rabbits . . .In this adorably illustrated book, old Mr. Rabbit is your guide to these and many more examples of loaded language. He mines real reporting (by respected and rogue media alike) to unmask rhetoric that shifts blame, erases responsibility, dog-whistles, plays on fear, or rewrites history - subtly or shamelessly. It takes a long pair of ears to hear what's left unsaid - but when the very notion of truth is at stake, listening for "spin" makes all the difference.Praise for An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments-'I love this illustrated book of bad arguments. A flawless compendium of flaws.'-Prof. Alice Roberts, anatomist, presenter of the BBC's The Incredible Human JourneyPraise for An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments-'A wonderfully digestible summary of the pitfalls and techniques of argumentation. I can't think of a better way to be taught or reintroduced to these fundamental notions of logical discourse. A delightful little book.'-Aaron Koblin, former Creative Director of the Data Arts team at GooglePraise for An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments-' A handsome newcomer's guide to the world of logic . Almossawi and his McSweeney's-ready artist Giraldo accessibly tackle such classic subjects as circular reasoning, false dilemma, straw man, appeal to ignorance, and genetic fallacy . an attractive, substantive read.'-John Wenzel, Denver Post Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
