Artificial Life: A Report from the Frontier Where Computers Meet Biology by Steven Levy, ISBN 0679743898

$20.16

This enthralling book alerts us to nothing less than the existence of new varieties of life. Some of these species can move and eat, see, reproduce, and die. Some behave like birds or ants. One such life form may turn out to be our best weapon in the war against AIDS.
What these species have in common is that they exist inside computers, their DNA is digital, and they have come into being not through God's agency but through the efforts of a generation of scientists who seek to create life in silico.
But even as it introduces us to these brilliant heretics and unravels the intricacies of their work.

Quantum Computation & Information by Iaac L. Chuang, ISBN 0521635039

Nielsen and Chuang ask the question: What are the ultimate physical limits to computation and communication? They then go on to describe what a quantum computer is, how it can be used to solve problems faster than familiar "classical" computers, and the real-world implementation of quantum computers. Their book concludes with an explanation of how quantum states can be used to perform remarkable feats of communication, and of how it is possible to protect quantum states against the effects of noise. 91 line diagrams.

Thin Clients Clearly Explained by Joseph T. Sinclair, ISBN 012645535X

A thin client is a Network Computer that runs Windows programs, providing the infrastructure that enables an Intranet to reach its full potential. The benefits of thin client computers are the comparatively low cost and the ability to manage these machines centrally, providing convenience and efficiency. Employees who haven't used computers before can use thin clients for email and to access corporate publishing through a Web browser. Employees who need computers but don't use them intensively can use thin clients to access corporate databases and corporate publishing, for email, for word processing, and even for GroupWare. This is a straightforward book that will be useful to officers, executives, supervisors, and many others who wish to implement and use thin clients on an Intranet.

When God Was a Woman

Here, archaeologically documented is the story of the religion of the Goddess. Known by many names, she reigned supreme in the Near and Middle East. How did the change in women's roles come about? By documenting the wholesale rewriting of myth and religious dogmans, Stone details an ancient conspiracy that laid the foundation for one of culture's greatest shams--the legend of Adam and fallen Eve.
