The Jehovah Contract
Kopubco | ISBN 0977764907 | March 2006 | HTML | 276 Pages | 130 KB
Self-consciously styled after a hard-boiled detective novel, this is a most unusual and entertaining work of satirical SF. An assassin by trade, Dell Ammo works in a bombed-out section of Los Angeles that has been irradiated by a nuclear explosion. Terminally ill, Ammo is offered immortality by a millionaire evangelist if he will do one job: kill God. Accepting the assignment, Ammo embarks on a bizarre hunt through postnuclear L.A., assisted by Ann Perrine, a woman claiming to be an accountant but whose skills are considerably more interesting, and a nymphet with powerful, sexually telepathic abilities. In his search for God, Ammo encounters a powerful group of clerics eager to protect God, the source of their power, whether he exists or not. In other hands this could be pretentiously silly, but Koman carries it off with wit and energy

Springer; 1 edition (March 5, 2007) | ISBN: 140205694X | 372 pages | PDF | 4,4 Mb
Case-based reasoning (CBR) has received a great deal of attention in recent years and has established itself as a core methodology in the field of artificial intelligence. The key idea of CBR is to tackle new problems by referring to similar problems that have already been solved in the past. More precisely, CBR proceeds from individual experiences in the form of cases. The generalization beyond these experiences typically relies on a kind of regularity assumption demanding that 'similar problems have similar solutions'.

Leonid V. Azaroff, "Physics over Easy: Breakfast with Beth and Physics"
World Scientific | May 1996 | ISBN: 9810223579 | PDF | 12 MB | 247 pages
In easy-to-follow conversational language, this book reveals the mysteries of physics and tells about the physicists who made it possible, from the discovery of the laws of gravity by Isaac Newton and the construction of the first electric battery by Alessandro Volta, to the present century's development of solid-state electronics, nuclear arms and nuclear reactors, lasers, etc. The evolution of physics during four centuries is related in sixteen conversations that actually took place between the author, a professor of physics, and his wife, an intelligent listener not familiar with the subject. By asking questions and interjecting her own observations, she insists on sufficient clarity in the presentation so as to make the somewhat difficult seeming topics clearly understandable.

A Prástaro, "Quantized Partial Differential Equations"
World Scientific | April 2004 | ISBN: 9812387641 | PDF | 20 Mb | 493 pages
This book presents, for the first time, a systematic formulation of the geometric theory of noncommutative PDE’s which is suitable enough to be used for a mathematical description of quantum dynamics and quantum field theory. A geometric theory of supersymmetric quantum PDE’s is also considered, in order to describe quantum supergravity. Covariant and canonical quantizations of (super) PDE’s are shown to be founded on the geometric theory of PDE’s and to produce quantum (super) PDE’s by means of functors from the category of commutative (super) PDE’s to the category of quantum (super) PDE’s. Global properties of solutions to (super) (commutative) PDE’s are obtained by means of their integral bordism groups.

This is an introductory textbook on the geometrical theory of dynamical systems, fluid flows, and certain integrable systems. The subjects are interdisciplinary and extend from mathematics, mechanics and physics to mechanical engineering, and the approach is very fundamental. The underlying concepts are based on differential geometry and theory of Lie groups in the mathematical aspect, and on transformation symmetries and gauge theory in the physical aspect. A great deal of effort has been directed toward making the description elementary, clear and concise, so that beginners will have easy access to the topics.

Gilbert Chauvet, "The Mathematical Nature Of The Living World: The Power Of Integration"
World Scientific | October 2004 | ISBN-10: 9812388192 | PDF | 3 Mb | 291 pages
The topic of the book � a theory of functional biology that incorporates the fundamental principles underlying the functioning of living organisms � is clearly appropriate as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the discovery by Watson and Crick of the structure of the DNA molecule. 'The Mathematical Nature of the Living World: The Power of Integration' is here to remind us that the world of biology is anchored in the world of mathematics and physics, and that, to understand the living world, we need to incorporate the laws of the nonliving matter. In particular, an important emphasis of the book concerns the relationships between structure and function, a point so well illustrated by the work of Watson and Crick. A nice aspect of Chauvet’s book is that he does place his work and his approach in a general framework and historical background of the work performed by pioneers in a variety of fields ranging from physics to biology. As such, the book should be of general interest to a wide range of readers, from college students interested in integrating biology with physics and mathematics, to general readers curious to know more about the differences between the living world and the nonliving matter, to professional scientists and teachers concerned with more specific questions regarding relationships between structure and function in biology.
