Download or read book Memory in Mind and Culture written by Pascal Boyer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-08 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text introduces students, scholars, and interested educated readers to the issues of human memory broadly considered, encompassing both individual memory, collective remembering by societies, and the construction of history. The book is organised around several major questions: How do memories construct our past? How do we build shared collective memories? How does memory shape history? This volume presents a special perspective, emphasising the role of memory processes in the construction of self-identity, of shared cultural norms and concepts, and of historical awareness. Although the results are fairly new and the techniques suitably modern, the vision itself is of course related to the work of such precursors as Frederic Bartlett and Aleksandr Luria, who in very different ways represent the starting point of a serious psychology of human culture.

Download or read book Pale Blue Dot written by Carl Sagan and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Fascinating . . . memorable . . . revealing . . . perhaps the best of Carl Sagan’s books.”—The Washington Post Book World (front page review) In Cosmos, the late astronomer Carl Sagan cast his gaze over the magnificent mystery of the Universe and made it accessible to millions of people around the world. Now in this stunning sequel, Carl Sagan completes his revolutionary journey through space and time. Future generations will look back on our epoch as the time when the human race finally broke into a radically new frontier—space. In Pale Blue Dot, Sagan traces the spellbinding history of our launch into the cosmos and assesses the future that looms before us as we move out into our own solar system and on to distant galaxies beyond. The exploration and eventual settlement of other worlds is neither a fantasy nor luxury, insists Sagan, but rather a necessary condition for the survival of the human race. “Takes readers far beyond Cosmos . . . Sagan sees humanity’s future in the stars.”—Chicago Tribune

Download or read book NET Design Patterns written by Praseed Pai and published by Packt Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the world of .NET design patterns and bring the benefits that the right patterns can offer to your toolkit today About This Book Dive into the powerful fundamentals of .NET framework for software development The code is explained piece by piece and the application of the pattern is also showcased. This fast-paced guide shows you how to implement the patterns into your existing applications Who This Book Is For This book is for those with familiarity with .NET development who would like to take their skills to the next level and be in the driver's seat when it comes to modern development techniques. Basic object-oriented C# programming experience and an elementary familiarity with the .NET framework library is required. What You Will Learn Put patterns and pattern catalogs into the right perspective Apply patterns for software development under C#/.NET Use GoF and other patterns in real-life development scenarios Be able to enrich your design vocabulary and well articulate your design thoughts Leverage object/functional programming by mixing OOP and FP Understand the reactive programming model using Rx and RxJs Writing compositional code using C# LINQ constructs Be able to implement concurrent/parallel programming techniques using idioms under .NET Avoiding pitfalls when creating compositional, readable, and maintainable code using imperative, functional, and reactive code. In Detail Knowing about design patterns enables developers to improve their code base, promoting code reuse and making their design more robust. This book focuses on the practical aspects of programming in .NET. You will learn about some of the relevant design patterns (and their application) that are most widely used. We start with classic object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques, evaluate parallel programming and concurrency models, enhance implementations by mixing OOP and functional programming, and finally to the reactive programming model where functional programming and OOP are used in synergy to write better code. Throughout this book, we'll show you how to deal with architecture/design techniques, GoF patterns, relevant patterns from other catalogs, functional programming, and reactive programming techniques. After reading this book, you will be able to convincingly leverage these design patterns (factory pattern, builder pattern, prototype pattern, adapter pattern, facade pattern, decorator pattern, observer pattern and so on) for your programs. You will also be able to write fluid functional code in .NET that would leverage concurrency and parallelism! Style and approach This tutorial-based book takes a step-by-step approach. It covers the major patterns and explains them in a detailed manned along with code examples.
