Synopsis

"Programming in Lisp"Delve into the profound world of symbolic computation with "Programming in Lisp," a comprehensive volume that illuminates the power and elegance of one of the oldest yet most influential programming languages. Beginning with the historical evolution of Lisp, the book expertly guides readers through the foundational concepts of symbolic expressions, evaluation models, and the distinctive syntactic features that set Lisp apart. By exploring both major dialects and the interactive development process through the REPL, it establishes a thorough understanding of the language’s philosophical roots and practical strengths.Building on these foundations, "Programming in Lisp" transitions into advanced topics crucial for proficient development, including the intricate design of core data structures, functional paradigms such as closures and recursion, and sophisticated control flow mechanisms. Readers will uncover the depths of Lisp’s metaprogramming capabilities through macro systems, learn object-oriented programming via the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS), and demystify implementation strategies such as memory management, compilation, and performance tuning. Each chapter is structured to not only provide conceptual clarity, but also hands-on expertise through detailed examples and comparative analyses of dialects like Scheme and Clojure.In its final chapters, this book brings Lisp into the modern age by examining its dynamic ecosystem and real-world applications—from artificial intelligence and web development to data science and domain-specific languages. Discussions on cutting-edge research, educational impact, and community-driven innovation prepare readers for the future of Lisp. Whether you are a developer aiming to master Lisp’s expressive power or a computer scientist interested in language design, "Programming in Lisp" stands as an essential, authoritative resource for both exploration and practice.

    You walk the same woodland path every week, past a ring of mushrooms on the lawn and a crust of lichen on an old gravestone, and you have never quite known what you were looking at.
    
    This is the fungal kingdom explained the way a good friend would explain it on that walk. Ten warm, short chapters take you under the forest floor into the mycelial network that trades food between trees, into spore clouds fired like tiny cannons, into lichens living two lives in one body, into ants that farm fungi and fungi that farm ants, and into mushrooms that glow quietly in the night woods. Each chapter closes with one thing you can look for outdoors tomorrow, whether you forage, garden, or simply like knowing what is under your boots.
    
    By the end, the ground reads differently and the smell of rain on soil makes sense. Press play before your next walk, and start noticing.

    Nuclear physics began long before the identification of fundamental particles, with J. J. Thomson's discovery of the electron at the end of the nineteenth century, which implied the existence of a positive charge in the atom to make it neutral. In this Very Short Introduction, Frank Close gives an account of how this area of physics has progressed, including the recognition of how heavy nuclei are built up in the cores of stars and in supernovae, the identification of quarks and gluons, and the development of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Exploring key concepts such as the stability of different configurations of protons and neutrons in nuclei, Frank Close shows how nuclear physics brings the physics of the stars to Earth and provides us with important applications, particularly in medicine.

    Beat the Bots offers science-based creativity techniques that guide you through the writing process to unlock your imagination and create compelling stories that resonate with emotional truth in ways AI can’t match. 
      
    Even though artificial intelligence is based on a technology called “machine learning,” computers can’t learn to be creative—but you can. This book will show you the way. AI is, by definition, derivative, not creative. It can’t bring rational judgment to determine the quality or value of its work. When you bring those capabilities to your writing, your stories will touch readers’ hearts and minds. 
      
    Just as real food is better for us than processed food, and actual social interactions are more meaningful than social media, when it comes to writing your story, artificial intelligence can’t replicate your individual human intelligence, imagination, and sensibility. Technical wizardry can’t tell your story. Only you can do that. Your uniqueness is what separates you from a chatbot, and explains why you can’t be replaced by an algorithm. You’ll succeed because you’re human, not in spite of it. 
      
    Through engaging FAQs, invaluable “Pro Tips,” and “AI Weighs In” revelations, you’ll be able to apply the writing lessons and creativity tactics to all aspects of storytelling, bringing your distinctive vision and voice to your projects in ways AI simply can’t. Thought-provoking, science-based guided exercises challenge you to apply each chapter’s lessons to your own writing. Whether you’re writing a novel, literary nonfiction, or a memoir, you’ll be able to write stories that are fresh and compelling—your stories—and those are the books that publishers want and readers crave. That’s how you’ll beat the bots.

    A revelatory and wide-ranging exploration of HMS Britannic—her life at sea and on the seabed—by the owner of her wreck. 
     
     
     
    Launched in 1914, two years after the ill-fated voyage of her sister ship, RMS Titanic, the Britannic was intended to be superior to her tragic twin in every way. But war intervened and in 1915 she was requisitioned as a hospital ship. Just one year later, while on her way to collect troops wounded in the Balkans campaign, she fell victim to a mine laid by a German U-boat and tragically sank in the middle of the Aegean Sea. 
     
     
     
    There her wreck lay, at a depth of 400 feet, until it was discovered fifty-nine years later by legendary explorer Jacques Cousteau. In 1996 the wreck was bought by the author of this book, Simon Mills. 
     
     
     
    Exploring the Britannic tells the complete story of this enigmatic ship: her construction, launch and life, her fateful last voyage, and the historical findings resulting from the exploration of the well-preserved wreck over a period of forty years. This book finally details how the mysteries surrounding the 100-year-old enigma were laid to rest, and what the future might also hold for her.
