The word “smart” or “intelligent” has almost become ubiquitous in every field of humanities, sciences and engineering and anything that is embedded with some kind of human intelligence-like feature by using soft computing tools such as neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms and other evolutionary tools, is dubbed as “smart”. Infact I have never been tought that way before. I felt like the author is siting in my room, right next to me, and teaching me. The proof of my words are that I passed 2 tests 1. This book guides you along the way to understand clearly the features of this themes.. If you are not ready yet, then document anyway, anything that will show that it's in the kids better interest to be with you for full custody. This little monograph consists of three brief essays:The Development of the English Watercolor by Evelyn J. Many Americans think we live in a classless society, one big, happy middle class, though the contrary is true (look how suburban subdivisions are divided by house prices, even on signs: the 300-399K development, the 499 and up, the 899K and up, the 100-159 "starter homes", and so on). All tales are colorful, creative, and rooted in "mojo" - a tricky, powerful, and dangerous magic with a West African flavor.This is a diverse collection in that it traverses time to provide stories from the slave ships, the antebellum South, the Jim Crow era, the 1960's and even

Jeanne Fahnestock is Professor of English at the University of MarylandRhetorical Figures in Science breaks new ground in the rhetorical study of scientific argument as the first book to demonstrate how figures of speech other than metaphor have been used to accomplish key conceptual moves in scientific texts. Examples, both verbal and visual, range across disciplines and centuries to reaffirm the positive value of these once widely-taught devices.In a well-crafted argument and a well-exemplified series of chapters, Fahnestock undermines our comfortable sense that, aside from metaphor, the figures can be safely ignored by rhetorical theorists and critics, that the study of such schemes as antithesis, incrementum, gradatio, antimetabole, ploche and polyptoton is the preserve only of pedants."--Quarterly Journal of Speech"Jeanne Fahnestock's book displays a range of erudition not only in the history of science but in the history of rhetoric as wellIt is impossible to provide an adequate review of the wealth of evidence offered in the book. But even readers not familiar with all of the sciences discussed should find sufficient illustrations from other literature to make them grateful to Professor Fahnestock for this illuminating study."--Rhetorica"Fahnestock's own argument is solid, well documented, and convincing, and her book is a significant contribution to the history as well as the rhetoric of science."--ISIS"'Once and for all,' Jeanne Fahnestock argues in her soon-to-be-a-classic book, 'the figures should come out of the c
