![]() An Unfortunate Coincidence: A Mother's Life inside the Autism Controversy By Julie Obradovic 2016 | 284 Pages | ISBN: 1510704620 | EPUB | 1 MB In her poignant account, Julie Obradovic discusses her heart-rending struggle with her daughter's autism and her subsequent quest for answers. She reveals the feelings of depression and helplessness brought on by the diagnosis and her initial inability to find help. Unwilling to give up, however, Obradovic began fighting, finding a treatment for her daughter and going on to campaign on behalf of others. An Unfortunate Coincidence is the result of this fight. The account takes its readers through the political, historical, and scientific developments behind the greatest medical controversy of our time, including:The findings of the vaccine injury compensation programInvestigations of CDC fraud and the subsequent congressional hearings and findingsThe identical symptoms of autism and mercury poisoningEyewitness reports of families and educatorsThe author's struggle to present her point of view and the backlash intended to silence itUltimately, An Unfortunate Coincidence will ask the readers to take a closer look at the evidence uncovered by ten years of research and decide just how many coincidence claims they are willing to accept. ![]() An Introduction to Statistics with Python: With Applications in the Life Sciences English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030973700 | 352 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 71 MB Now in its second edition, this textbook provides an introduction to Python and its use for statistical data analysis. It covers common statistical tests for continuous, discrete and categorical data, as well as linear regression analysis and topics from survival analysis and Bayesian statistics. ![]() An Introduction to Network Programming with Java: Java 7 Compatible by Jan Graba English | PDF | 2013 | 389 Pages | ISBN : 1447152530 | 4.2 MB Since the second edition of this text, the use of the Internet and networks generally has continued to expand at a phenomenal rate. This has led to both an increase in demand for network software and to improvements in the technology used to run such networks, with the latter naturally leading to changes in the former. During this time, the Java libraries have been updated to keep up with the new developments in network technology, so that the Java programming language continues to be one of the mainstays of network software development. ![]() An Integrated Approach to Software Engineering by Pankaj Jalote English | PDF | 1997 | 508 Pages | ISBN : 0387948996 | 67.2 MB A lot has changed in the fast-moving area of software engineering since the first edition of this book came out. However, two particularly dominant trends are clearly discernible: focus on software processes and object-orientation. A lot more attention is now given to software processes because process improvement is con sidered one of the basic mechanisms for improving quality and productivity. And the object-oriented approach is considered by many one of the best hopes for solving some of the problems faced by software developers. ![]() An Accidental Brexit: New EU and Transatlantic Economic Perspectives by Paul J.J. Welfens English | PDF | 2017 | 451 Pages | ISBN : 3319582704 | 6.3 MB This book analyzes how the EU referendum in the United Kingdom came to pass and what the foreseeable consequences are for the UK, Europe, US and world economy. The Brexit decision represents a momentous event for Europe, which weakens the EU and shifts the global balance of power. Welfens argues the EU has lost its appeal and is not in keeping with the twenty-first century, which is being shaped by Asia and digital innovations. ![]() Paul Burstein, "American Public Opinion, Advocacy, and Policy in Congress: What the Public Wants and What It Gets" English | 2014 | ISBN: 1107684250, 1107040205 | PDF | pages: 241 | 1.5 mb Between one election and the next, members of Congress introduce thousands of bills. What determines which become law? Is it the public? Do we have government "of the people, by the people, for the people?" Or is it those who have the resources to organize and pressure government who get what they want? In the first study ever of a random sample of policy proposals, Paul Burstein finds that the public can get what it wants - but mainly on the few issues that attract its attention. Does this mean organized interests get what they want? Not necessarily - on most issues there is so little political activity that it hardly matters. Politics may be less of a battle between the public and organized interests than a struggle for attention. American society is so much more complex than it was when the Constitution was written that we may need to reconsider what it means, in fact, to be a democracy. ![]() American Literature Before 1880 By Robert Lawson-Peebles 2003 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 0582495229 | PDF | 4 MB American Literature Before 1880 attempts to place its subject in the broadest possible international perspective. It begins with Homer looking westward, and ends with Henry James crossing the Atlantic eastwards. In between, the book examines the projection of images of the East onto an as-yet unrecognised West; the cultural consequences of Viking, Colombian, and then English migration to America; the growth and independence of the British American colonies; the key writers of the new Republic; and the development of the culture of the United States before and after the Civil War. It is intended both as an introduction for undergraduates to the richness and variety of American Literature, and as a contribution to the debate about its distinctive nature. The book therefore begins with a lengthy survey of earlier histories of American Literature. ![]() Jerome A. Greene, Thomas Powers, "American Carnage: Wounded Knee, 1890" English | 2014 | ISBN: 0806144483, 0806169060 | PDF | pages: 618 | 311.7 mb As the year 1890 wound to a close, a band of more than three hundred Lakota Sioux Indians led by Chief Big Foot made their way toward South Dakota's Pine Ridge Reservation to join other Lakotas seeking peace. Fearing that Big Foot's band was headed instead to join "hostile" Lakotas, U.S. troops surrounded the group on Wounded Knee Creek. Tensions mounted, and on the morning of December 29, as the Lakotas prepared to give up their arms, disaster struck. Accounts vary on what triggered the violence as Indians and soldiers unleashed thunderous gunfire at each other, but the consequences were horrific: some 200 innocent Lakota men, women, and children were slaughtered. American Carnage-the first comprehensive account of Wounded Knee to appear in more than fifty years-explores the complex events preceding the tragedy, the killings, and their troubled legacy. ![]() Algebraic Design Theory and Hadamard Matrices: ADTHM, Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, July 2014 by Charles J. Colbourn English | PDF | 2015 | 261 Pages | ISBN : 3319177281 | 2.3 MB This volume develops the depth and breadth of the mathematics underlying the construction and analysis of Hadamard matrices, and their use in the construction of combinatorial designs. At the same time, it pursues current research in their numerous applications in security and cryptography, quantum information, and communications. Bridges among diverse mathematical threads and extensive applications make this an invaluable source for understanding both the current state of the art and future directions. ![]() Algebra, Arithmetic, Numbers and Numerations: A Mathematics Book for High Schools and Colleges by Kingsley Augustine English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BC1VRF8Y | 216 pages | PDF | 1.72 Mb The topics of this book are listed below.
