In Once Upon an Algorithm, Martin Erwig explains computation as something that takes place beyond electronic computers, and computer science as the study of systematic problem solving. Erwig points out that many daily activities involve problem solving. Getting up in the morning, for example: You get up, take a shower, get dressed, eat breakfast. This simple daily routine solves a recurring problem through a series of well-defined steps. In computer science, such a routine is called an algorithm.

This 10-part history of mathematics reveals the personalities behind the calculations: the passions and rivalries of mathematicians struggling to get their ideas heard. Professor Marcus du Sautoy shows how these masters of abstraction find a role in the real world and proves that mathematics is the driving force behind modern science.

Neste livro que já se tornou um clássico, David Spiegelhalter — um dos maiores estatísticos da atualidade — combina a visão incomparável de um especialista com o entusiasmo de um aficionado e oferece um verdadeiro guia para explorarmos a arte dessa ciência que é muito mais do que um ramo da matemática. Em A arte da estatística, David Spiegelhalter utiliza a resolução de questões do mundo real como ponto de partida para introduzir conceitos estatísticos, dos simples aos mais complexos, sempre com notório didatismo.

From the end of the 19th century until his death, one of history's most brilliant mathematicians languished in an asylum. The Mystery of the Aleph tells the story of Georg Cantor (1845-1918), a Russian-born German who created set theory, the concept of infinite numbers, and the "continuum...
