An Introduction to 3D Computer Vision Techniques and Algorithms $129.99 Computer vision encompasses the construction of integrated vision systems and the application of vision to problems of real-world importance. The process of creating 3D models is still rather difficult, requiring mechanical measurement of the camera positions or manual alignment of partial 3D views of a scene. However using algorithms, it is possible to take a collection of stereo-pair images of a scene and then automatically produce a photo-realistic, geometrically accurate digital 3D model.This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the methods, theories and algorithms of 3D computer vision. Almost every theoretical issue is underpinned with practical implementation or a working algorithm using pseudo-code and complete code written in C++ and MatLab®. There is the additional clarification of an accompanying website with downloadable software, case studies and exercises. Organised in three parts, Cyganek and Siebert give a brief history of vision research, and subsequently:  present basic low-level image processing operations for image matching, including a separate chapter on image matching algorithms;explain scale-space vision, as well as space reconstruction and multiview integration;demonstrate a variety of practical applications for 3D surface imaging and analysis;provide concise appendices on topics such as the basics of projective geometry and tensor calculus for image processing, distortion and noise in images plus image warping procedures.An Introduction to 3D Computer Vision Algorithms and Techniques is a valuable reference for practitioners and programmers working in 3D computer vision, image processing and analysis as well as computer visualisation. It would also be of interest to advanced students and researchers in the fields of engineering, computer science, clinical photography, robotics, graphics and mathematics.

Consuming History: Historians and Heritage in Contemporary Popular Culture $26.29 Non-academic history – ‘public history’ – is a complex, dynamic entity which impacts on the popular understanding of the past at all levels. In Consuming History, Jerome de Groot examines how society consumes history and how a reading of this consumption can help us understand popular culture and issues of representation. This book analyzes a wide range of cultural entities – from computer games to daytime television, from blockbuster fictional narratives such as Da Vinci Code to DNA genealogical tools – to analyze how history works in contemporary popular culture. Jerome de Groot probes how museums have responded to the heritage debate and the way in which new technologies have brought about a shift in access to history, from online game playing to internet genealogy. He discusses the often conflicted relationship between ‘public’ and academic history, and raises important questions about the theory and practice of history as a discipline. Whilst mainly focussing on the UK, the book also compares the experiences of the USA, France and Germany. Consuming History is an important and engaging analysis of the social consumption of history and offers an essential path through the debates for readers interested in history, cultural studies and the media.

Programming The Universe: A Quantum Computer Scientist Takes on the Cosmos $7.49 <p>The universe is made of bits. The way in which the universe registers and processes information determines what it is and how it behaves. It has been known for more than a century that every piece of the universe – every electron, atom, and molecule – registers bits of information. It is only in the last ten years, however, with the discovery and development of quantum computers, that scientists have gained a fundamental understanding of just how that information is registered and processed. </p><p> </p><p> Seth Lloyd calls this fundamental understanding of the universe in terms of information processing ‘the computational universe’, and the purpose of this book is to show how the programmed, computational universe works. Starting from basic concepts of physics, <i>Programming the Universe</i> shows how all physical systems register information. It gives an accessible account of how information is stored and processed at the level of electrons, atoms, and molecules. </p><p> </p><p> It shows how the information processing power of the universe can be harnessed to build quantum computers and explains how the universe itself behaves like a gigantic computer, transforming and processing information. It traces the history of information processing from the big bang to the present day, and reveals how the computational ability of the universe promotes the evolution of complex structures such as life. <i>Programming the Universe</i> is the story of the universe and the bits it is made of.</p>

A Textual History of the King James Bible $125 “David Norton has recently re-edited the King James Bible for Cambridge University and this book arises from his intensive work on that project. He reveals here how the text of the most important Bible in the English language was made, and how it was changed by printers and editors until it became the text we know today in 1769. Using material as diverse as the manuscripts of the original translators, and the results of extensive computer collation of electronically held texts, Norton has produced a scholarly edition of the King James Bible that will restore the authority of the 1611 translation. This book includes the bible’s fascinating background, Norton’s editorial principles and substantial lists and tables of variant readings. It will be indispensable to scholars of the English Bible, literature, and publishing history. A website with additional resources (www.cambridge.org/kjv) will be available one month prior to publication.”

TypeSense: Making Sense of Type on the Computer, Third Edition $32 For undergraduate courses in Typography, Typographic Design, Publication Design, and Desktop Publishing in design curricula.TypeSense makes understanding type easier by taking readers from the broadest decisions, made first in a document or design, to the detailed decisions, made later in the design’s development.Susan G. Wheeler’s enduring fascination with typefaces-the beautiful shapes, diverse styles, and the typographic artwork created from them is something she enjoys sharing with others. Working with type, however, can be daunting for beginning design and typography students or new publication design students. All the details, rules, stylistic variations, and interrelationships feel overwhelming at first.  After realizing there were no texts at the intermediate level on the market that addressed the issue as comprehensively as she wanted (history, typesetting, typography design, and publication design) and presented typographic documents and designs from the initial research through to their conclusion.  Typesense fills the need for such a text.

The Code Book The Secret History Of Codes And Code-Breaking $13.79 The science of secrecy from ancient egypt to quantum cryptography. From the best-selling author of Fermats Last Theorem The Code Book is a history of mans urge to uncover the secrets of codes from Egyptian puzzles to modern-day computer encryptions. As in Fermats Last Theorem Simon Singh brings life to an astonishing story of puzzles codes languages and riddles that reveals mans continual pursuit to disguise and uncover and to work out the secret languages of others. Codes have influenced events throughout history both in the stories of those who make them and those who break them. The betrayal of Mary Queen of Scots and the cracking of the enigma code that helped the Allies in World War II are major episodes in a continuing history of cryptography. In addition to stories of intrigue and warfare Simon Singh also investigates other codes the unravelling of genes the rediscovery of ancient languages and most tantalisingly the Beale ciphers an unbroken code that could hold the key to a $20 million treasure.

The Information: A History, a Theory, a Flood $9.99 James Gleick, the author of the best sellers Chaos and Genius, now brings us a work just as astonishing and masterly: a revelatory chronicle and meditation that shows how information has become the modern era"s defining quality-the blood, the fuel, the vital principle of our world. The story of information begins in a time profoundly unlike our own, when every thought and utterance vanishes as soon as it is born. From the invention of scripts and alphabets to the long-misunderstood talking drums of Africa, Gleick tells the story of information technologies that changed the very nature of human consciousness. He provides portraits of the key figures contributing to the inexorable development of our modern understanding of information: Charles Babbage, the idiosyncratic inventor of the first great mechanical computer; Ada Byron, the brilliant and doomed daughter of the poet, who became the first true programmer; pivotal figures like Samuel Morse and Alan Turing; and Claude Shannon, the creator of information theory itself. And then the information age arrives. Citizens of this world become experts willy-nilly: aficionados of bits and bytes. And we sometimes feel we are drowning, swept by a deluge of signs and signals, news and images, blogs and tweets. The Information is the story of how we got here and where we are heading. From the Hardcover edition.
