Beatitudes to the Apostles' Creed, this is a guidebook for anyone
who wants to integrate the basics of the faith into their daily
life. This second book of the Come & See Series sheds light on

the Beatitudes, and the Corporal Works of Mercy. A Faith You Can
Live With is unique and inviting, building a practical foundation
for an authentic, lived spirituality. The basics are covered in
plain and simple language-perfectly suited for RCIA, adult
education groups, retreat centers, returning Catholics, and anyone
who is looking for a sound and usable guide that will both inform
and renew.
Discrete Mathematics Using a Computer offers a new, "hands-on"
approach to teaching Discrete Mathematics. Using software that is
freely available on Mac, PC and Unix platforms, the functional
language Haskell allows students to experiment with mathematical
notations and concepts -- a practical approach that provides
students with instant feedback and allows lecturers to monitor
progress easily.
This second edition of the successful textbook contains
significant additional material on the applications of formal
methods to practical programming problems. There are more examples
of induction proofs on small programs, as well as a new chapter
showing how a mathematical approach can be used to motivate AVL
trees, an important and complex data structure.
Designed for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students, the book
is also well suited for self-study. No prior knowledge of
functional programming is required; everything the student needs is
either provided or can be picked up easily as they go along.
Key features include:
- Numerous exercises and examples
- A web page with software tools and additional practice
problems, solutions, and explanations, as well as course
slides
- Suggestions for further reading
Complete with an accompanying instructor's guide, available via
the web, this volume is intended as the primary teaching text for
Discrete Mathematics courses, but will also provide useful reading
for Conversion Masters and Formal Methods courses.

Nostalgia for the Future is the first collection in English of the
writings and interviews of Luigi Nono (1924-1990). One of the most
prominent figures in the development of new music after World War
II, he is renowned for both his compositions and his utopian views.
His many essays and lectures reveal an artist at the center of the
analytical, theoretical, critical, and political debates of the
time. This selection of Nono's most significant essays, articles,
and interviews covers his entire career (1948-1989), faithfully
mirroring the interests, orientations, continuities, and fractures
of a complex and unique personality. His writings illuminate his
intensive involvements with theatre, painting, literature,
politics, science, and even mysticism. Nono's words make vividly
evident his restless quest for the transformative possibilities of
a radical musical experience, one that is at the same time
profoundly engaged with its performers and spaces, its audiences,
and its human and social motivations and ramifications.
