Complexity and Real Computation

Complexity and Real Computation

1997

Computational complexity theory provides a framework for understanding the cost of solving computational problems, as measured by the requirement for resources such as time and space. The objects of study are algorithms defined within a formal model of computation. Upper bounds on the computational complexity of a problem are usually derived by constructing and analyzing specific algorithms. Meaningful lower bounds on computational complexity are harder to come by, and are not available for most problems of interest. The dominant approach in complexity theory is to consider algorithms as oper­ ating on finite strings of symbols from a finite alphabet. Such strings may represent various discrete objects such as integers or algebraic expressions, but cannot rep­ resent real or complex numbers, unless the numbers are rounded to approximate values from a discrete set. A major concern of the theory is the number of com­ putation steps required to solve a problem, as a function of the length of the input string.

Lenore Marshall’s extraordinary poems observe our relationship with nature under the duress of human progress. Plaintive and frightening, Marshall’s voice is also one of hope: it exemplifies a woman of strong conscience who supported world peace in poems that earned her prominence in the unique mid-twentieth century milieu of bohemian and activist culture.
Magical Moments of Change

Magical Moments of Change

Lenore Terr

WW Norton Co

sidottu
Terr presents highly effective child psychotherapeutic styles and techniques and demonstrates them in three ways: by relating “moments” from at least six of her own cases; by conveying and comparing “moments” from 33 of her distinguished colleagues’ cases; and by watching her “wild child” patient, little Cammie, develop her own eight “magical moments” over a period of fifteen years. These “moments” are rare. But by pooling them together, or by looking at how they develop over a long period of time in a single individual, readers are able to achieve further understanding of the process of change in child and adolescent psychotherapy.

This 1996 book is a history of health and disease in colonial Malaya from colonisation to the outbreak of World War II. This was a period marked by dramatic economic expansion, rapid population growth and changes in patterns of infection. Drawing on the contrasting environments created by colonial capitalism, the book emphasises the role of medicine in legitimating colonial presence and shows that the ill-health of individual populations was directly related to their social and political climate. Viewing colonial Malaya through a series of complex lenses, the book integrates social and material history, historical epidemiology and demography, as well as theories of political economy, feminism and postcolonialism. In doing so, it offers a compelling account of the history of disease and changing health status under colonialism.
