    Book Description 
    Have you always wondered how it is that a machine understands what you are saying? Did you wonder how Siri or Alexa always knows exactly what to show you when you ask them something? If you did, you have come to the right place. 
    Machines are able to interpret and understand human beings and also interpret the data that is fed to them because of artificial intelligence. So, what is artificial intelligence? If you have been reading the basics, you will know that artificial intelligence is a human being’s attempt to make a machine smart enough to handle processes that a human being would normally do. It is not easy to do this, since you will need to understand the system and also learn the required programming languages to instruct the computer to behave in the required manner. 
    Before you delve into the world of artificial intelligence, it is important for you to understand the basics so you know what to expect. Over the course of this book, you will gather information about: 
    ●      What artificial intelligence is 
    ●      The principles of artificial intelligence 
    ●      Subjects involved in artificial intelligence 
    ●      Some basic concepts used in artificial intelligence 
    ●      How machines learn 
    ●      The different types of data and how the data is sourced 
    ●      Applications of AI in the modern world 
    You will also gather information on how you can train machines to interpret data and provide the required output. Regardless of whether you are an amateur or an expert, you can use this book to guide you through the basics of artificial intelligence.

    The Adventures of Lightfoot the Deer is another set of children’s stories by the conservationist, Thornton W. Burgess. More serious than some of Burgess' other children's books, much of this book chronicles the tense predator-prey relationship of a human hunter and Lightfoot the Deer during the autumn hunting season. Later, Lightfoot discovers a hunt of a different kind. (Summary by Jill Engle)

    A scientist recounts his global adventure documenting trilobite fossils in this full-color book perfect for armchair paleontologists. 
     
    Distant relatives of modern lobsters, horseshoe crabs, and spiders, trilobites swam the planet’s prehistoric seas for 300 million years, from the Lower Cambrian to the end of the Permian eras—and they did so very capably. Trilobite fossils have been unearthed on every continent, with more than 20,000 species identified by science. One of the most arresting animals of our pre-dinosaur world, trilobites are also favorites among the fossil collectors of today, their crystalline eyes often the catalyst for a lifetime of paleontological devotion. And there is no collector more devoted—or more venerated—than Riccardo Levi-Setti. With The Trilobite Book, a much-anticipated follow-up to his classic Trilobites, Levi-Setti brings us a glorious and revealing guide to these surreal arthropods of ancient Earth. 
     
    Featuring specimens from Bohemia to Newfoundland, California to the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, and Wales to the Anti-Atlas Mountains of Morocco, Levi-Setti’s magnificent book reanimates these “butterflies of the seas” in 235 astonishing full-color photographs. All original, Levi-Setti’s images serve as the jumping-off point for tales of his global quests in search of these highly sought-after fossils; for discussions of their mineralogical origins, as revealed by their color; and for unraveling the role of the now-extinct trilobites in our planetary history. 
     
    Sure to enthrall paleontologists with its scientific insights and amateur enthusiasts with its beautiful and informative images, The Trilobite Book combines the best of science, technology, aesthetics, and personal adventure. It will inspire new collectors for eras to come. 
     
    Praise for The Trilobite Book 
     
    “[The Trilobite Book]marries the intertwined story of [Levi-Setti’s] global hunt for specimens and trilobites’ place in prehistory with 235 superb color photographs of select fossils. Perhaps most astounding is the array found by Arkadiy Evdokimov in Russia: their preservation is exquisite, down to the rococo flourishes of curving spines and protuberant, complex eyes.” —Barbara Kiser, Nature 
     
    “This gorgeous, well-researched book is a must-have for anyone interested in these prehistoric creatures.” —Carla Sinclair, Boing Boing

    Consider Facebook—it's human contact, only easier to engage with and easier to avoid. Developing technology promises closeness. Sometimes it delivers, but much of our modern life leaves us less connected with people and more connected to simulations of them.In Alone Together, MIT technology and society professor Sherry Turkle explores the power of our new tools and toys to dramatically alter our social lives. It's a nuanced exploration of what we are looking for—and sacrificing—in a world of electronic companions and social networking tools, and an argument that, despite the hand-waving of today's self-described prophets of the future, it will be the next generation who will chart the path between isolation and connectivity.
