In 1959 C. P. Snow delivered his now-famous Rede Lecture, 'The Two Cultures,' a reflection on the academy based on the premise that intellectual life was divided into two cultures: the arts and humanities on one side and science on the other. Since then, a third culture, generally termed 'social science' and comprised of fields such as sociology, political science, economics, a...(展开全部)

Cascading Style Sheets, better known as CSS, is one of the foundational technologies that drives the Web. CSS lets you precisely specify the visual design of a web page or web app, from the structural layout of elements on the page to their individual look and feel. If you are like most web developers, you know just enough CSS to get by. You can do basic styling and layout, but...(展开全部)

One of the fruits of the Scientific Revolution was the idea of a social science - a science of government, of individual behavior, and of society - that would operate in ways comparable to the newly triumphant natural sciences. Thus was set in motion a long and often convoluted chain of two-way interactions that still have implications for both scholarship and public policy. Th...(展开全部)

The core of this book consists of two long essays. The first focuses on the role of analogies as linking factors between the two realms. Examples are drawn from the physics of rational mechanics and energy physics and from the biology of cell theory. The second essay looks closely at the relations between the natural and the social sciences in the period of the Scientific Revol...(展开全部)

Learn Python The Hard Way is a book I wrote to teach programming to people who do not know how to code. It assumes you are probably a power user of your computer, and then takes you from nothing to programming simple games. After reading my book you should be ready for many of the other programming books out there.
