Book Peru s Indian Peoples and the Challenge of Spanish Conquest

Download or read book Peru s Indian Peoples and the Challenge of Spanish Conquest written by Steve J. Stern and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of Peru's Indian Peoples and the Challenge of Spanish Conquest includes Stern's 1992 reflections on the ten years of historical interpretation that have passed since the book's original publication--setting his analysis of Huamanga in a larger perspective. "This book is a monument to both scholarship and comprehension, comparable in its treatment of the indigenous peoples after the conquest only to that of Charles Gibson for the Aztecs, and perhaps the best volume read by this reviewer in several years."--Frederick P. Bowser, American Historical Review "Peru's Indian Peoples and the Challenge of Spanish Conquest is clearly indispensable reading for Andeanists and highly recommended to ethnohistorians generally. In technical respects it is a job done right, and conceptually it stands out as a handsome example of anthropology and history woven into one tight fabric of inquiry."--Frank Salomon, Ethnohistory

Download or read book A People s Contest written by Phillip Shaw Paludan and published by HarperCollins Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A People's Contest" explores the interrelationships between the two great events of nineteenth-century America: the Civil War and the Industrial Revolution. It describes how the North redefined itself as a modern nation through the war and the vast economic and social changes that accompanied it. Much of the story is told through the lives and writings of individuals, many of them little known and some -- Walt Whitman, Herman Melville, and Emily Dickinson -- familiar to us all. The book weaves together insights drawn from literature, economics, diplomacy, law, and religion to place the war in the context of the larger transformations of the age and show why it remains the nation's most compelling experience. -- From publisher's description.

Download or read book Programming Challenges written by Steven S Skiena and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many distinct pleasures associated with computer programming. Craftsmanship has its quiet rewards, the satisfaction that comes from building a useful object and making it work. Excitement arrives with the flash of insight that cracks a previously intractable problem. The spiritual quest for elegance can turn the hacker into an artist. There are pleasures in parsimony, in squeezing the last drop of performance out of clever algorithms and tight coding. The games, puzzles, and challenges of problems from international programming competitions are a great way to experience these pleasures while improving your algorithmic and coding skills. This book contains over 100 problems that have appeared in previous programming contests, along with discussions of the theory and ideas necessary to attack them. Instant online grading for all of these problems is available from two WWW robot judging sites. Combining this book with a judge gives an exciting new way to challenge and improve your programming skills. This book can be used for self-study, for teaching innovative courses in algorithms and programming, and in training for international competition. The problems in this book have been selected from over 1,000 programming problems at the Universidad de Valladolid online judge. The judge has ruled on well over one million submissions from 27,000 registered users around the world to date. We have taken only the best of the best, the most fun, exciting, and interesting problems available.
