"Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer and #1 New York Times bestsellng author Jon Meacham chronicles the life of Abraham Lincoln, charting how - and why- he confronted secession, threats to democracy, and the tragedy of slavery to expand the possibilities of America. A president who governed a country at war with itself has much to teach us in a twenty-first-century moment of polarization and political crisis. Hated and hailed, excoriated and revered, Abraham Lincoln was at the pinnacle of American power when implacable secessionists gave no quarter in a clash of visions bound up with money, race, identity, and faith. In him we can see the possibilities of the presidency as well as its limitations. At once familiar and elusive, Lincoln tends to be seen as the greatest of American presidents - a remote icon - or as a politician driven more by calculation that by confiction. This illuminating new portrait gives us a very human Lincoln - an imperfect man whose moral antislavery commitment, essential to the story of justice in America, began as he grew up in an antislavery Baptist community; who insisted that slavery was a moral evil; and who sought, as he put it, to the right as God gave him to see the right. This book tells the story of Lincoln from his birth on the Kentucky frontier in 1809 to his leadership during the Civil War to his tragic assassination in 1865; his rise, his self-education, his loves, his bouts of depression, his political failures, his deepening faith, and his persistent conviction that slavery must end. In a nation shaped by the courage of the enslaved of the era and by the brave witness of Black Americans, Lincoln's story illustrates the ways and means of politics in a democracy,the roots and durability of racism, and the capacity of conscience to shape events." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In this volume we present the accepted contributions for the 7th European C- ference on Genetic Programming (EuroGP 2004). The conference took place on 5 7 April 2004 in Portugal at the University of Coimbra, in the Department of Mathematics in Pra ca Dom Dinis, located on the hill above the old town. EuroGP is a well-established conference and the sole one exclusively de- ted to Genetic Programming. Previous proceedings have all been published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. EuroGP began as an international wor- hop in Paris, France in 1998 (14 15 April, LNCS 1391). Subsequently the wor- hop was held in G oteborg, Sweden in 1999 (26 27 May, LNCS 1598) and then EuroGP became an annual conference: in 2000 in Edinburgh, UK (15 16 April, LNCS 1802), in 2001 at Lake Como, Italy (18 19 April, LNCS 2038), in 2002 in Kinsale, Ireland (3 5 April, LNCS 2278), and in 2003 in Colchester, UK (14 16 April, LNCS 2610). From the outset, there have always been specialized wor- hops, co-located with EuroGP, focusing on applications of evolutionary al- rithms (LNCS 1468, 1596, 1803, 2037, 2279, and 2611). This year the EvoCOP workshop on combinatorial optimization transformed itself into a conference in its own right, and the two conferences, together with the EvoWorkshops, EvoBIO, EvoIASP, EvoMUSART, EvoSTOC, EvoHOT, and EvoCOMNET, now form one of the largest events dedicated to Evolutionary Computation in Europe.…
