The "great divide" between the approaches of systems developers and those of the social scientists to computer supported cooperative work has been vigorously debated in the systems development literature. In spite of their differences in style, the two groups have been cooperating more and more in the last decade, as the "people problems" associated with computing become increasingly evident to everyone. This book is the first to address directly the problem of how to bridge the divide. It offers an exciting overview of the cutting edge of research and theory, and will constitute a solid foundation for the rapidly coalescing field of social informatics.

Grokking Algorithms is a book that aims to help readers understand the fundamental concepts of computer science algorithms. It covers various algorithms and data structures, including searching, sorting, graph algorithms, dynamic programming, and more. The book presents the concepts clearly and concisely, with plenty of illustrations and examples to help readers grasp the ideas. It also includes exercises and challenges at the end of each chapter to help readers test their understanding and apply their knowledge. Grokking Algorithms aims to give readers a solid foundation in computer science algorithms and to help them develop the skills and confidence to tackle complex problems using algorithms. It is an excellent resource for computer science students, software engineers, and anyone interested in learning algorithms and data structures.

This book will help you better understand how algorithms work and how to apply them effectively in your daily lif

Effective Methods and Functions of Grokking Algorithms

What is grokking algorithms? A new kind of algorithm? A new way of doing data science? No. The official definition of grokking is "To understand profoundly through intuition or empathy." It also means "to empathize or communicate sympathetically (with); also, to experience enjoyment." In short, it's all about learning algorithms in a way that they are part of you, not just memorizing what to do. To grok means to learn in such a way that your view of programming is changed forever. I will walk you through some of the most popular algorithms in an easy-to-understand way that ensures you truly understand them and become fully immersed in them. So much so that when you've finished the book, you'll be excited to go out and learn more.

This book is the first to directly address the question of how to bridge what has been termed the "great divide" between the approaches of systems developers and those of social scientists to computer supported cooperative work--a question that has been vigorously debated in the systems development literature. Traditionally, developers have been trained in formal methods and oriented to engineering and formal theoretical problems; many social scientists in the CSCW field come from humanistic traditions in which results are reported in a narrative mode. In spite of their differences in style, the two groups have been cooperating more and more in the last decade, as the "people problems" associated with computing become increasingly evident to everyone. The authors have been encouraged to examine, rigorously and in depth, the theoretical basis of CSCW. With contributions from field leaders in the United Kingdom, France, Scandinavia, Mexico, and the United States, this volume offers an exciting overview of the cutting edge of research and theory. It constitutes a solid foundation for the rapidly coalescing field of social informatics. Divided into three parts, this volume covers social theory, design theory, and the sociotechnical system with respect to CSCW. The first set of chapters looks at ways of rethinking basic social categories with the development of distributed collaborative computing technology--concepts of the group, technology, information, user, and text. The next section concentrates more on the lessons that can be learned at the design stage given that one wants to build a CSCW system incorporating these insights--what kind of work does one need to do and how is understanding of design affected? The final part looks at the integration of social and technical in the operation of working sociotechnical systems. Collectively the contributors make the argument that the social and technical are irremediably linked in practice and so the "great divide" not only should be a thing of the past, it should never have existed in the first place.

"The purpose of the writer in compiling this text-book has been so to set forth the succession of schools and systems of philosophy as to accord to Scholasticism a presentation in some degree adequate to its importance in the history of speculative thought"--Preface.

Accrington Pals is being re-released due to popular demand after being out of stock for sometime. The first book to be published in the now highly acclaimed Pals series. The Accrington Pals were the most famous of all the battalions, based upon research in local and national archives, and interviews with the battalion's handful of survivors, their many relations and descendants, it contains a great number of hitherto-unpublished eye-witnessed accounts and photographs. Accrington Pals will appeal to all those interested in the Great War, together with anyone in and around the Accrington area with an interest in family history.
