El objetivo principal de este libro es que el lector adquiera las bases para un dominio pleno del lenguaje C++. Además de mostrar la sintaxis y uso del lenguaje de una manera gradual y sencilla, se pretende enseñar a programar en C++ de una manera integral, dentro del concepto de desarrollo de un proyecto informático.
Hemos complicado el estudio del pasado al dar mayor importancia a opiniones e intereses nacionalistas, religiosos y morales, relegando el hecho histórico a un segundo plano, subordinándolo a los intereses del sistema que controla nuestra educación. No podemos aceptar esa manipulación, es nuestro deber librarnos de esas falsas verdades culturales por respeto hacia nuestros antepasados. Después de muchos años estudiando Historia, he llegado a la conclusión de que la mejor manera de conocer el pasado es a través de una cronología imparcial y objetiva que coloque cada acontecimiento en su lugar exacto en el tiempo y revele la historia sin manipulaciones ni medias verdades. Cronologías siempre fueron un complemento secundario en los métodos tradicionales de estudio, pero en mis libros constituye el centro de la narrativa, una obra de referencia completa que transcurre año a año, en la medida de lo posible, desde la prehistoria hasta el presente. Para aquellos que prefieran un estudio más detallado, he organizado una segunda cronología, que abarca día a día desde 1789 hasta 1946, dividida en cuatro colecciones.
"A cornerstone of genealogy for the two states, it gives partial genealogies of the settlers, including residence, name and parentage of wife, death dates, and lines of descent almost always to the third generation, and often to the fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh generation." -- Publisher website (December 2008).

At the end of the American Revolution, Elizabeth Freeman was an enslaved widow and mother living in Massachusetts. Hearing the words of the new Massachusetts state constitution which declared liberty and equality for all, she sought the help of a young lawyer named Theodore Sedgwick, later Speaker of the House and one of America's leading Federalist politicians. The lawsuit that she and Sedgwick pursued would bring freedom to her and her daughter, as well as thousands of other enslaved people. After leaving her enslaver's family to work for the family of Theodore Sedgwick, she effectively became the foster mother to his seven children when his wife Pamela became a chronic invalid, enabling Sedgwick to pursue his political career. Two of his sons would credit her with saving their lives. His daughter Catharine Maria Sedgwick, one of the most famous female novelists of the early decades of the nineteenth century, would make her the model for one of her most celebrated heroines. This biography details Elizabeth Freeman's life and the far-reaching influence of her battle for freedom.
Data Structures and Algorithms in Java, Second Edition is designed to be easy to read and understand although the topic itself is complicated. Algorithms are the procedures that software programs use to manipulate data structures. Besides clear and simple example programs, the author includes a workshop as a small demonstration program executable on a Web browser. The programs demonstrate in graphical form what data structures look like and how they operate. In the second edition, the program is rewritten to improve operation and clarify the algorithms, the example programs are revised to work with the latest version of the Java JDK, and questions and exercises will be added at the end of each chapter making the book even more useful. Educational Supplement Suggested solutions to the programming projects found at the end of each chapter are made available to instructors at recognized educational institutions. This educational supplement can be found at www.prenhall.com, in the Instructor Resource Center.
The 11 papers are from two workshops: one in 1995-95 on dictionaries and priority queues, and the other in 1998-99 on near neighbor searches, the fifth and sixth DIMACS Algorithm Implementation Challenges initiated in 1991. They address those challenges with considerations of a practical perfect hashing algorithm, locally lifting the curse of dimensionality for a nearest neighbor search, and other topics. They also discuss methodology for the experimental analysis of algorithms. They are not indexed. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

The last words of Major General John Sedgwick as he strode in front of his men in the open at Spotsylvania were, "What? Men dodging this way for single bullets? What will you do when they open fire along the whole line? Why are you dodging like this? They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance." In an instant, he was struck down by a Confederate sharpshooter from 1,000 yards. Much loved by his men and his comrades in arms, even Robert E. Lee expressed sorrow at the death of an old friend. General George Meade wept and Grant said losing Sedgwick was worse than losing a division. He was wounded several times in battle and was considered a very solid commander. When moved to a new command, his old division presented him with a sword made in Europe costing $1,000. From the Mexican War through his death in 1864, here are the letters of this little-written-about general. Both volumes are presented here with letters to his family and comrades. For the first time, this long-out-of-print book is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. Be sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.
James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851) invented the key forms of American fiction—the Western, the sea tale, the Revolutionary War romance. Furthermore, Cooper turned novel writing from a polite diversion into a paying career. He influenced Herman Melville, Richard Henry Dana, Jr., Francis Parkman, and even Mark Twain—who felt the need to flagellate Cooper for his “literary offenses.” His novels mark the starting point for any history of our environmental conscience. Far from complicit in the cleansings of Native Americans that characterized the era, Cooper’s fictions traced native losses to their economic sources. Perhaps no other American writer stands in greater need of a major reevaluation than Cooper. This is the first treatment of Cooper’s life to be based on full access to his family papers. Cooper’s life, as Franklin relates it, is the story of how, in literature and countless other endeavors, Americans in his period sought to solidify their political and cultural economic independence from Britain and, as the Revolutionary generation died, stipulate what the maturing republic was to become. The first of two volumes, James Fenimore Cooper: The Early Years covers ...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, ICALP'99, held in Prague, Czech Republic, in July 1999. The 56 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 126 submissions; also included are 11 inivited contributions. Among the topics addressed are approximation algorithms, algebra and circuits, concurrency, semantics and rewriting, process algebras, graphs, distributed computing, logic of programs, sorting and searching, automata, nonstandard computing, regular languages, combinatorial optimization, automata and logics, string algorithms, and applied logics.
Although traditional texts present isolated algorithms and data structures, they do not provide a unifying structure and offer little guidance on how to appropriately select among them. Furthermore, these texts furnish little, if any, source code and leave many of the more difficult aspects of the implementation as exercises. A fresh alternative to
