From the reviews:“There are two general approaches to computation: using computation as a numerical tool to approximate answers or using a computer algebra system to provide exact mathematical answers by symbolic manipulation. This book explores the second of these approaches, using the computer algebra system Mathematica. … Though this work does teach students how to use Mathematica, it does so with the goal of providing new insights into basic mathematics, which can then be applied to more advanced mathematics. … Summing Up: Recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates.” (D. Z. Spicer, Choice, Vol. 50 (7), March, 2013)“Three main chapters form the core of the book. In the first chapter, the authors talk about using a computer algebra system like Mathematica for problems in number theory … . Chapters 2 and 3 are devoted to calculus and linear algebra, respectively. … The mathematical content of the chapters is … elementary and written in a style easily understandable by nonspecialists. … a very good introduction for beginners to this interesting and important topic.” (Kai Diethelm, ACM Computing Reviews, March, 2013)

&#8220;Far more gripping than any novel of espionage I can remember.&#8221; &#8212;Graham Greene&#8220;To this day I am convinced that he was not an ideologue. Spying was just his way of being above lesser mortals.&#8221; &#8212;Nigel West &#8220;Addictive . . . highly polished . . . written with style and a feline sense of irony, making it a much better read than any of the other Philby literature.&#8221; &#8212;The Guardian&#8220;Philby has no home, no women, no faith. Behind the inbred upper-class arrogance, the taste for adventure, lies the self-hate of a vain misfit for whom nothing will ever be worthy of his loyalty. In the last instance, Philby is driven by the incurable drug of deceit itself.&#8221; &#8212;John le Carr&#233;

Colley shows how the stories of British captives helped shape the literature, politics and public opinion of the time.&#8221; &#8212;The Washington Post Book World &#8220;This is a scholarly book that deserves a popular success, and what it amounts to is a revisionist history of the British empire itself. . . . provocative and indeed brilliant.&#8221; &#8212;The Boston Globe&#8220;This is the kind of history book that could not have been written a generation ago . . .

Captives

"Most of what is known about Low is standard fare gleaned from Girl Scout handbooks and reference books. Yet, as this sprightly biography shows, she was a genuine character: colorful, with a great zest for living. Strong of character and used to having her own way, she had a sharp wit and loved to play pranks on her family and friends. The essence of brief biography, this is cozy, full of homey tidbits, and just right in appeal to today's children."
