Summary

What is Ancient Greek Warfare
 
Warfare occurred throughout the history of Ancient Greece, from the Greek Dark Ages onward. The Greek 'Dark Ages' drew to an end as a significant increase in population allowed urbanized culture to be restored, which led to the rise of the city-states (Poleis). These developments ushered in the period of Archaic Greece. They also restored the capability of organized warfare between these Poleis. The fractious nature of Ancient Greek society seems to have made continuous conflict on this larger scale inevitable.

    DESCRIPTION 
    Computers have become an integral part of our education system. Computer Science is now not limited to just teaching definitions and commands. Instead, it helps the learners to understand and appreciate the varied uses of computers and its vast applications.
    Trackpad iPRO (Ver. 4.0) series based on Windows 10 and MS Office 2019 is comprehensively designed as per the new ICSE syllabus. We believe computer education is a hands-on subject and too much of bookish knowledge can take away the pleasure of learning. All these points have been kept in mind while designing this book and to produce the content that is not only appealing but also challenging to the students. 
    
    The topics in the book have been hand picked after extensive research by a team of experts on the subject based on the utility, interest, skill, and basic and trending applications in the global market. We have designed the lessons in such a way that they can be well integrated with other subjects. Step by step approach will make it simple and easy for our students to grasp the concepts. Relevance of the topics was of prime importance throughout the compilation of the book. 
    
    
    Learning is done best when it’s fun-filled and activity-based. To ensure that the content intrigues the students at all times and keeps them interested throughout the course of the book, we have included interesting key features like Student Corner, Tech Funda, Clickipedia, Comp Caution, Reboot, One Touch Learn, Let’s Do It, Crack The Code, Hands-On, Fun In Lab, Teacher’s Corner, Worksheet, Test Sheet, Project, Speech Drill, Supplement Pages and Glossary. 
    
    These features will ensure better learning, assessment, and evaluation and enable children to take their knowledge beyond the classroom. 
    
    Sample questions of Orange Global Olympiad (Cyber) have been included to promote awareness about the national level competition. 
    
    We hope that the book contributes to the progressive development of computer aided education system and prepares our students for all upcoming challenges. We want the children to learn the concepts not only for the purpose of gaining knowledge but also to be able to find their applications. This will enable them to enrich the quality of their lives as well as others’.

    AI has acquired startling new language capabilities in just the past few years. Driven by rapid advances in deep learning, language AI systems are able to write and understand text better than ever before. This trend is enabling new features, products, and entire industries. With this book, listeners will learn practical tools and concepts they need to use these capabilities today. 
     
     
     
    You'll understand how to use pretrained large language models for use cases like copywriting and summarization; create semantic search systems that go beyond keyword matching; and use existing libraries and pretrained models for text classification, search, and clusterings. 
     
     
     
    This book also helps you understand the architecture of Transformer language models that excel at text generation and representation; build advanced LLM pipelines to cluster text documents and explore the topics they cover; build semantic search engines that go beyond keyword search, using methods like dense retrieval and rerankers; explore how generative models can be used, from prompt engineering all the way to retrieval-augmented generation; and gain a deeper understanding of how to train LLMs and optimize them for specific applications using generative model fine-tuning, contrastive fine-tuning, and in-context learning.

    Medical Virology - Viruses and...

    Virology is the branch of microbiology that focuses on the study of viruses, including their structure, classification, replication, pathogenesis, and interactions with hosts. Viruses are unique infectious agents that exist at the boundary between living and non-living entities. Unlike bacteria and other microorganisms, viruses cannot replicate independently; they rely entirely on host cells to reproduce. This dependency makes them significant in the fields of medicine, biotechnology, and public health. 
    The significance of virology has expanded with the emergence of novel viral diseases, pandemics, and the continuous evolution of viral pathogens. From early discoveries of viral infections to the development of vaccines and antiviral therapies, virology has played a crucial role in advancing medical science. The study of viruses extends beyond human health, influencing veterinary medicine, agriculture, and environmental sciences. Understanding the fundamental principles of virology is essential for diagnosing, treating, and preventing viral diseases. 
    Historically, virology began with the discovery of infectious agents that were too small to be seen under a microscope. The first major breakthrough occurred in the late 19th century when Dmitri Ivanovsky and Martinus Beijerinck independently demonstrated that certain infectious agents, later identified as viruses, could pass through filters that trapped bacteria. This led to the realization that viruses were distinct from other microorganisms. The discovery of bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, further expanded the field and paved the way for molecular virology.

    Shepherd’s Sight - A Farming Life

    A restorative and resonant memoir of a year in the life of an aging shepherd 
    		 
    For 50 years, Barbara McLean has tended a flock of Border Leicester sheep on her small Ontario farm, Lambsquarters. In Shepherd’s Sight she shares the crises, pleasures, and challenges of farm life over the course of a year. Now in her 70s, McLean faces a new problem: how much longer she can continue with the physically taxing work that is her central source of meaning and satisfaction.  
    		 
    Through her unsentimental gaze, we witness the highs and heartbreaks of delivering and rearing lambs, the shearing and spinning of wool, the wildlife in the woods (and occasionally in the house), and the garden produce moving from seed to harvest to table. Even after half a century on this land, McLean is still making fresh observations, and she shares them in evocative, elegant prose. As she moves through the calendar year, she also reflects on years past, offering a long view on climate, stewardship, and agriculture. 
    		 
    With its vivid description and absorbing storytelling, Shepherd’s Sight offers an unforgettable glimpse of a life lived on the land.

    I’ve already written a couple of books on prophecy and premonitions including my own experiences. 
    But as an engineer I felt that I really had not fully communicated what I’ve learned about these abilities and how we can apply this knowledge to our lives. 
    Thus the purpose of this book is to be as detailed as I can be about what premonitions are and how you can use them to improve your life and change your probable futures. 
    As an engineer and experiencer of many modes of premonitions and prophecies I feel I have a lot to offer here and want you the reader to benefit from what I’ve learned. 
    Historical prophecies are also covered as are the real source of premonitional abilities, techniques to see your own futures, how far ahead people can see the future, how to use these techniques with a group of people, and much more on the importance of prophecy in our world. 
    The ability to change the direction of your fate is also discussed.
