This edition features George Orwell's best known novels – 1984 and Animal Farm – with an introduction by Christopher Hitchens. In 1984, London is a grim city where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind.  Winston Smith joins a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be.Animal Farm is Orwell's classic satire of the Russian Revolution -- an account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. But are they?

Millî Mücadele sırasında Orta Anadolu'da bir köy. Tanzimat aydınının sosyo-psikolojik özelliklerinin uzantılarını taşıyan Ahmet Celal. Kendini kurtarıcı olarak gören, halkı eğitmeyi (ya da adam etmeyi) görev edinmiş, kafasında yarattığı gerçekle yaşanan gerçeğin çatışması sonucu "yaban"laşan tipik aydın.Yirminci yüzyılın ilk yarısında büyük bir üretkenlikle dergilere yazdığı şiir, öykü, makale ve eleştri türü yazılarla Türk edebiyatı sahnesine adımını atan Yakup Kadri Karaosmanoğlu, romanları, hikayeleri, denemeleri, oyunları ve anılarıyla, en önemli edeiyatçılarımız arasında yer alır. Üslup özellikleri bakımından Yakup Kadri'nin 1910'dan 1974'e dek verdiği eserler Türkçe'nin geçirdiği bütün evreleri yansıtır. Eserlerinin konu ve fikir zenginliği de dil özelliklerinin çeşitliliğinden aşağı kalmaz. Yakup Kadri'nin Fransız edebiyatı etkisinde başlayan yazarlığı, 1920'lerden sonra özgün bir sese kavuşarak siyasi ve sosyolojik konulara, tarihe, dönem çatışmalarına ve birey psikolojisi irdelemelerine yönelir. Fecr-i Ati'den yetişmiş ama bunu izleyen elli yıl boyunca toplumsal koşullar, tarihi süreçler ve bireysel portreleri romanın dokusuna işlemek için roman tekniğiyle de boğuşmuş bir yazar olan Karaosmanoğlu'nun eserleri, hala tüketilmemiş ayrıntılarının tartışılıp incelenmesi gereken zengin bir "panoroma"dır.

What are the jobs of the future? How many will there be? And who will have them? We might imagine—and hope—that today's industrial revolution will unfold like the last: even as some jobs are eliminated, more will be created to deal with the new innovations of a new era. In Rise of the Robots, Silicon Valley entrepreneur Martin Ford argues that this is absolutely not the case. As technology continues to accelerate and machines begin taking care of themselves, fewer people will be necessary. Artificial intelligence is already well on its way to making “good jobs” obsolete: many paralegals, journalists, office workers, and even computer programmers are poised to be replaced by robots and smart software. As progress continues, blue and white collar jobs alike will evaporate, squeezing working- and middle-class families ever further. At the same time, households are under assault from exploding costs, especially from the two major industries—education and health care—that, so far, have not been transformed by information technology. The result could well be massive unemployment and inequality as well as the implosion of the consumer economy itself.In Rise of the Robots, Ford details what machine intelligence and robotics can accomplish, and implores employers, scholars, and policy makers alike to face the implications. The past solutions to technological disruption, especially more training and education, aren't going to work, and we must decide, now, whether the future will see broad-based prosperity or catastrophic levels of inequality and economic insecurity. Rise of the Robots is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand what accelerating technology means for their own economic prospects—not to mention those of their children—as well as for society as a whole.

Thrown in prison for a crime he has not committed, Edmond Dantes is confined to the grim fortress of If. There he learns of a great hoard of treasure hidden on the Isle of Monte Cristo and he becomes determined not only to escape, but also to unearth the treasure and use it to plot the destruction of the three men responsible for his incarceration. Dumas’ epic tale of suffering and retribution, inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment, was a huge popular success when it was first serialized in the 1840s.Robin Buss’s lively English translation is complete and unabridged, and remains faithful to the style of Dumas’s original. This edition includes an introduction, explanatory notes and suggestions for further reading.

A Tale of Two Cities is Charles Dickens’s great historical novel, set against the violent upheaval of the French Revolution. The most famous and perhaps the most popular of his works, it compresses an event of immense complexity to the scale of a family history, with a cast of characters that includes a bloodthirsty ogress and an antihero as believably flawed as any in modern fiction. Though the least typical of the author’s novels, A Tale of Two Cities still underscores many of his enduring themes—imprisonment, injustice, social anarchy, resurrection, and the renunciation that fosters renewal.

This title covers a broad range of algorithms in depth, yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a unit of study. The algorithms are described in English and in a pseudocode designed to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming. The explanations have been kept elementary without sacrificing depth of coverage or mathematical rigor.
