“It is relatively discursive and easy to read, with
each chapter telling a coherent story, and it highlights the key concepts and
ideas, examining a few models in detail and using worked numerical examples as
well as visualisations and illustrations … . makes an excellent entry to the
broader mathematics of fractals and chaos, especially for students who are
curious about the details as well as the core concepts but don’t want to get
bogged down in formal mathematics.” (Danny Yee, Danny Yee’s Book reviews, February,
2016)
"It is one of the
best introductions to chaos and fractals around. … Unlike some other books on
fractals, it can be read by non-specialists … . The book is beautifully
produced and well illustrated so it is a pleasure to read." (Hugh
Williams, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 90 (5l9), 2006)"The first edition of this
vast introduction to chaos and fractals appeared in 1992. This new edition is
virtually identical to the original except for some material … . the book is …
a wonderful tour of a fascinating area of mathematics, and now the reader can
take this tour while carrying around a slimmer (but still hefty) volume. … The
authors have a friendly conversational style … . This is a great book … ."
(Raymond N. Greenwell, MathDL, May, 2005)"Chaos and
Fractals: New Frontiers of Science is an amazing introduction to the ideas of
fractal geometry and chaotic dynamics … . The authors have done a tremendous
job in explaining quite difficult concepts in an elegant and simple way … . I
enjoyed this book tremendously – the authors have put in a tremendous amount of
work in making a vast and interesting subject accessible … . I wholeheartedly
recommend this book to anyone with even a passing interest in the subject
matter." (Dr. S. Virmani, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 46 (6), 2005)"There appeared
many books in the 1980’s and early 1990’s that … required only a limited
mathematical background to understand. They made the fractals, chaos and the
Mandelbrot and Julia sets quite popular … . The … book that is under review
here is one of these popular books. … The book will remain what it has been so
far: an outstanding book that contains all you ever wanted to know about
fractals and chaos accessible to all levels of mathematically skilled."
(Bulletin of the Belgian Mathematical Society, Vol. 12 (3), 2005)"The book is
written for everyone who wants to learn details of chaos theory and fractal
geometry, also for readers who have not much knowledge of technical
mathematics. In the fourteen chapters the central ideas and concepts of chaos
and fractals are developed … ." (F. Haslinger, Monatshefte für Mathematik,
Vol. 144 (4), 2005)"This is the second
… edition of what has been a bestseller since its first publication in 1992. …
All the laudatory comments heard twelve years ago about this fascinating book
remain entirely valid. No one has succeeded in better presenting … . the
presentation has not aged at all – the comprehensiveness of the underlying
mathematics and the illustrative power of the figures has never been surpassed.
Twelve years after its first edition this book remains a must buy." (André
Hautot, Physicalia, Vol. 57 (3), 2005)"Numerous books
have appeared in recent years that either explore the beauty of fractal art,
describe techniques for its creation, or investigate some aspect of the related
field of chaotic behavior. The present work attempts to accomplish all three
goals in one huge volume...the authors should be applauded for their ambitions
undertaking."&nbsp;Mathematical Reviews













"This book …
contains all one ever wanted to know about fractals, and more. Written by–next
to Mandelbrot–the greatest popularizer of the concept of fractal geometry … It
contains a wealth of information on nearly every angle of the topic... I enjoyed
reading the book for its lucid approach, its attempt at completeness, and
especially, for the large number of illustrative figures and pictures."&nbsp;Zentralblatt

“In her study of
women’s life writing in manuscript and in print, Amy Culley persuasively argues
for a rethinking of the theory and practice of self- representation in the late
eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. … Engaging throughout with existing
scholarship, this is an innovative and incisive study which significantly
advances our understanding of women’s life writing.” (Anna M. Fitzer, Sharp
News, Vol. 24 (4), 2015)"This book productively deploys the more capacious conceptual model of life-writing to take account of the diverse ways in which women narrated their lives, through print and manuscript, emphasising themes of community, textual sociability and generational interaction. There is no book that applies the methodology of 'life- writing studies' to 18th and 19th century women in this way. The book has a number of interdisciplinary strengths, appealing to scholars in history, gender studies, literary studies, French Revolution studies, celebrity studies and life writing studies." Elizabeth Eger, Kings College London, UK

"Life writing has fresh theory, which Culley uses thoughtfully and imaginatively in tandem with scholarship on 18th-century lives, letters, journals and travel writing... With all its case studies, the book makes a convincing case for seeing women's life writing as outward-looking, even if its insistence on relationality raises an unfashionable question: did none of these women ever shut the door and breathe a sigh of relief that on paper they could be or invent themselves? The egalitarianism of life writing has been very beneficial to literary studies, and Culley's sympathetic readings show how. I wonder, though, whether the updating of models of relationships from circles to social networks projects our own remodelling of relationships in social media: this is the LinkedIn version of self. No wonder it's persuasive." Clare Brant, Times Higher Education

"A carefully constructed and warm-hearted study... Culley believes the women she has studied were intending something very different: creating a communal memory, a collective history, blurring genres of biography and autobiography and of aural record and literary text. For them, life writing was not about individual expression, but the recording of communal experience for the benefit of posterity." Kate Chisholm, Times Literary Supplement

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 14th
International Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing,
LCPC 2001, held in Lexington, KY, USA, in August 1-3, 2001. The 28 revised
full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing
and improvement. All current issues in parallel processing are addressed,
in particular compiler optimization, HP Java programming, power-aware parallel
architectures, high performance applications, power management of mobile
computers, data distribution, shared memory systems, load balancing, garbage
collection, parallel components, job scheduling, dynamic parallelization,
cache optimization, specification, and dataflow analysis.

From the reviews:“This book describes how transportation planning and traffic engineering principles relate to the functional design of freeway ITS (intelligent transportation systems) equipment selection and locations. The well-written work is easy to understand and includes many valuable tables, charts, examples, and photographs. Gordon has provided a good introduction to freeway performance characteristics and guidance on incident management. … Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty, and professionals.” (W. J. Sproule, Choice, Vol. 47 (8), April, 2010)
