Dionne Warwick made her singing debut in church at the request of
her grandfather, the Reverend Elzae Warrick, when she was six years
old. No one knew then that she would become an international music
legend, but what she knew--as words of wisdom passed down from her
grandfather--was that "if you can think it, you can do it." And she
did it. Dionne released the first of more than fifty-six charted
hits in 1962 with "Don't Make Me Over," followed by "Anyone Who Had
a Heart," "Walk On By," "I Say a Little Prayer," "Alfie," and "A
House Is Not a Home," to name a few. She received her first Grammy
in 1968 for "Do You Know the Way to San Jose" and later recorded
the classic hit "That's What Friends Are For." She was considered
the voice of Burt Bacharach/Hal David compositions, and the rest is
here, in her first autobiography. Dionne tells the stories of her
life from her childhood in East Orange, New Jersey, in a two-family
home with her parents, brother, and sister, to now, as she
celebrates her fiftieth year in show business.
She came by her musical gifts honestly. Her mother, Lee Drinkard
Warrick, was a founding member of the legendary Drinkard Jubilairs,
which included her mother's siblings Cissy, Marie, Annie, Nick, and
Larry. Cissy went on to become a celebrated recording artist in her
own right; she lived in the Warrick household, got married, and
later gave birth to one of the most popular singers of our time,
Whitney Houston. Dionne went on to start her own gospel group with
her sister, Dee Dee, called the Gospelaires. Her father, once a
Pullman porter, became an accountant, went on to promote gospel
records for Hob Records, and wrote a book on gospel music. She
attributes her strong family, who are faithful and industrious
Christians, for keeping her grounded and giving her the fortitude,
as well as the talent, to earn her place among world-class
performing artists without losing herself or her soul.
New digital technologies, from AI-fired 'legal tech' tools to
virtual proceedings, are transforming the legal system. But much of
the debate surrounding legal tech has zoomed out to a nebulous
future of 'robo-judges' and 'robo-lawyers.' This volume is an
antidote. Zeroing in on the near- to medium-term, it provides a
concrete, empirically minded synthesis of the impact of new digital
technologies on litigation and access to justice. How far and fast
can legal tech advance given regulatory, organizational, and
technological constraints? How will new technologies affect lawyers
and litigants, and how should procedural rules adapt? How can
technology expand - or curtail - access to justice? And how must
judicial administration change to promote healthy technological
development and open courthouse doors for all? By engaging these
essential questions, this volume helps to map the opportunities and
the perils of a rapidly digitizing legal system - and provides
grounded advice for a sensible path forward.
Can machine learning techniques solve our computer security
problems and finally put an end to the cat-and-mouse game between
attackers and defenders? Or is this hope merely hype? Now you can
dive into the science and answer this question for yourself. With
this practical guide, you’ll explore ways to apply machine
learning to security issues such as intrusion detection, malware
classification, and network analysis. Machine learning and security
specialists Clarence Chio and David Freeman provide a framework for
discussing the marriage of these two fields, as well as a toolkit
of machine-learning algorithms that you can apply to an array of
security problems. This book is ideal for security engineers and
data scientists alike. Learn how machine learning has contributed
to the success of modern spam filters Quickly detect anomalies,
including breaches, fraud, and impending system failure Conduct
malware analysis by extracting useful information from computer
binaries Uncover attackers within the network by finding patterns
inside datasets Examine how attackers exploit consumer-facing
websites and app functionality Translate your machine learning
algorithms from the lab to production Understand the threat
attackers pose to machine learning solutions
"The Iron Lady," the definitive Margaret Thatcher biography, is
available just in time for the movie starring Meryl Streep as one
of the most infamous figures in postwar politics.
Whether you love her or hate her, Margaret Thatcher's impact on
twentieth-century history is undeniable. From her humble,
small-town upbringing to her rise to power as the United Kingdom's
first female prime minister, to her dramatic fall from grace after
more than three decades of service, celebrated biographer John
Campbell delves into the story of this fascinating woman's life as
no one has before. The result of more than nine years of meticulous
research, "The Iron Lady" is the only balanced, unvarnished
portrait of Margaret Thatcher, one of the most vital and
controversial political figures of our time.
"In this clearly written volume, Hawke provides enlightening and colorful descriptions of early Colonial Americans and debunks many widely held assumptions about 17th century settlers."--Publishers Weekly
This beautifully illustrated anthology celebrates eighty years
of history and intellectual inquiry at the Institute for Advanced
Study, one of the world's leading centers for theoretical research.
Featuring essays by current and former faculty and members along
with photographs by Serge J-F. Levy, the book captures the spirit
of curiosity, freedom, and comradeship that is a hallmark of this
unique community of scholars.
Founded in 1930 in Princeton, New Jersey, the institute
encourages and supports fundamental research in the sciences and
humanities--the original, often speculative thinking that can
transform how we understand our world. Albert Einstein was among
the first in a long line of brilliant thinkers to be affiliated
with the institute. They include Kurt Godel, George Kennan, J.
Robert Oppenheimer, Erwin Panofsky, Homer A. Thompson, John von
Neumann, and Hermann Weyl. This volume offers an intimate portrait
in words and images of a storied institution that might best be
described as a true academic village. The personal reflections
collected here--written by leading figures from across the
disciplines--bring this exceptional academic institution and its
history vibrantly to life.
The contributors to this anthology are Michael Atiyah, Chantal
David, Freeman Dyson, Jane F. Fulcher, Peter Goddard, Barbara
Kowalzig, Wolf Lepenies, Paul Moravec, Joan Wallach Scott, and
David H. Weinberg."
Drawing on a wide and rich array of sources, this book explores the
nature and extent of Dutch trade and commerce in the Rio de la
Plata during three decades of the least-studied century (1650-1750)
of Spain's rule in the Americas. In doing so, it raises important
questions about trade in colonial South America and how it was
impacted by the Dutch, suggesting that these transactions were
carried out within the confines of the law, contradicting common
beliefs among scholars that this trading was not regulated. The
book contributes to a growing literature on contraband trade,
administration, networks, and corruption while challenging
narratives of exclusively Spanish influence on the Americas.
