The third edition of Introduction to Computing Systems: From bits
& gates to C/C++ and beyond is designed to give students a
strong foundation of computing early on in their coursework. The
book is in two parts: (a) the underlying structure of a computer,
and (b) programming in two high-level languages and programming
methodology. Taking a bottom-up approach from foundational
concepts, such as how a computer operates, to more high-level
programming languages enables students to understand each concept
while working through the text. This bottom-up approach can lead
students to more conceptual understanding and application with less
memorizing.

The bold, bright colours of India leap off the page in this fresh
and funny picture book retelling of how Ganesha came to help write
the epic poem of Hindu literature, the Mahabharata. Ganesha is just

quite useful after all. With vibrant, graphic illustrations,

What are the origins of the hostile environment for immigrants in
Britain? Drawing on new archival material from the Foreign and
Commonwealth Office, Ian Sanjay Patel retells Britain's recent
history in an often shocking account of state racism that still
resonates today. In a series of post-war immigration laws,
Britain's colonial and Commonwealth citizens from the Caribbean,
Asia and Africa were renamed immigrants. In the late 1960s, British
officials drew upon an imperial vision of the world to contain what
it saw as a vast immigration 'crisis' involving British citizens,
passing legislation to block their entry. As a result, British
citizenship itself was redefined along racial lines, fatally
compromising the Commonwealth and exposing the limits of Britain's
influence in world politics. Combining voices of so-called
immigrants trying to make a home in Britain and the politicians,
diplomats and commentators who were rethinking the nation, Ian
Sanjay Patel excavates the reasons why Britain failed to create a
post-imperial national identity. The reactions of the British state
to post-war immigration reflected the shift in world politics from
empires to decolonization. Despite a new international recognition
of racial equality, Britain's colonial and Commonwealth citizens
were subject to a new regime of immigration control based on race.
From the Windrush generation who came to Britain from the Caribbean
to the South Asians who were forced to migrate from East Africa,
Britain was caught between attempting both to restrict the rights
of its non-white colonial and Commonwealth citizens and redefine
its imperial role in the world. Despite Britain's desire to join
Europe, which eventually occurred in 1973, its post-imperial moment
never arrived, subject to endless deferral and reinvention.
Pixar animator and Academy Award-nominated director Sanjay Patel
(Sanjay's Super Team) brings to life Hinduism's most important gods
and goddesses (and one sacred stone) in fun, full-color
illustrations, each accompanied by a short, lively profile. The
Little Book of Hindu Deities is chock-full of monsters, demons,
noble warriors, and divine divas. Find out why Ganesha has an
elephant's head (his father cut his off!); why Kali, the goddess of
time, is known as the "Black One" (she's a bit goth); and what
"Hare Krishna" really means. "Throw another ingredient in the
American spirituality blender. Pop culture is veering into
Hinduism."--USA Today
