Hardback. Condition: New. In May 1958, one of the world's largest motor manufacturers unveiled a diminutive two-seater that would take the world by storm. Small in stature yet able to punch well above its weight, the Austin-Healey Sprite rapidly gained an enthusiastic following among keen drivers, as well as an impressive record in competition. Being neither expensive nor exotic, for many motorists the Sprite opened the door to sports car ownership and, in so doing, its commercial success was almost guaranteed. With over 250 photographs, this book includes: the genesis of the Sprite, from the Austin Seven and pre-war MG Midget, via Donald Healey's Riley- and Nash-engined models, to the Austin A30, A90 Atlantic and Healey Hundred. The development, launch and market reception is covered along with details of the evolution from Mk I to Mk IV, including the Frogeye and restyled ADO 41. Rallies, racing and record breaking details are given as well as information on modifications, special-bodied variants, replicas and finally, buying and restoring a Sprite today. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In an age where artificial intelligence and machine learning permeate every aspect of our lives, a new form of social stratification has quietly emerged. "The New Caste System: How Algorithms Decide Your Future" exposes the invisible digital hierarchy that determines who gets hired, who receives loans, who gains admission to universities, and who faces scrutiny from law enforcement. This groundbreaking examination reveals how algorithmic decision-making systems, originally designed to eliminate human bias, have instead codified and amplified existing inequalities while creating entirely new forms of discrimination. From credit scoring algorithms that perpetuate racial disparities to hiring software that screens out qualified candidates based on zip codes, the digital revolution has birthed a caste system more pervasive and insidious than any in human history.This book uncovers the hidden mechanisms that sort people into digital categories before they even know they're being evaluated. You'll discover how your online behavior, purchasing patterns, social connections, and even your smartphone's sensors contribute to algorithmic profiles that follow you through life, shaping opportunities and limitations in ways both subtle and profound. The author takes readers inside the black box of algorithmic governance, explaining complex technical concepts in accessible language while revealing the human consequences of automated decision-making. From the teenager denied college admission due to her neighborhood's crime statistics to the qualified job applicant rejected by resume-scanning software, these stories illuminate how algorithmic bias operates in the shadows of our digital society.More than just an expose, this book serves as a call to action, providing practical strategies for individuals to protect themselves from algorithmic discrimination while advocating for systemic reforms that could reshape how we deploy artificial intelligence in society. As algorithms increasingly determine life outcomes, understanding and challenging the new caste system becomes essential for anyone who values fairness, opportunity, and human dignity in the digital age. This urgent and eye-opening work will fundamentally change how you think about technology, inequality, and the future of human agency in an algorithm-driven world. This item is printed on demand.
