Here Comes the Sun is a story of succeeding in the face of adversity, about finding and following a purpose, and the potholes that can bring you unstuck. Suffering from ADHD at school, misunderstood, tormented and bullied for years, Andy McCarthy was unable to find his pack. When he dropped out in Year 10, his prospects weren't good. He had no idea then that his personal drive and dogged determination would lead to incredible success.

Applied Mathematics: A Computational Approach aims to provide a basic and self-contained introduction to Applied Mathematics within a computational environment. The book is aimed at practitioners and researchers interested in modeling real-world applications and verifying the results — guiding readers from the mathematical principles involved through to the completion of the practical, computational task. Important skills for the digital era and the effective utilization of digital systems would include high-level cognitive skills for whom automated operations and routine-basis procedures are neither being expected, nor openly proposed for deployment in the most recent years. Beyond the average years of schooling, skills complexity, and geographical factors, the prospects for education and training would include appropriate cognitive skills, e.g., active learning, complex problem solving, creativity, critical thinking, strategic thinking, along with the selection and utilization of adequate learning methods. In that manner, a book on Applied Mathematics should overview a number of contents, covering basic notions while providing an enhanced approach to important Calculus subjects. This text is directed to post-secondary readers, or university students in the initial years, being the required concepts and tools introduced as needed. With a computational approach aiming at the understanding of new situations, creative problem-solving, and decision-making, the experimental focus is supported either in the analytical confirmation of necessary conditions or in the visual verification of sufficient conditions. It is thus envisaged the book can be effective for students of STEM fields, Economics and Management Science, Social Sciences and Humanities, and for readers interested in a computational point of view.

Fine-tune your marketing research with this cutting-edge statistical toolkit. Bayesian Statistics and Marketing illustrates the potential for applying a Bayesian approach to some of the most challenging and important problems in marketing. Analyzing household and consumer data, predicting product performance, and custom-targeting campaigns are only a few of the areas in which Bayesian approaches promise revolutionary results. This book provides a comprehensive, accessible overview of this subject essential for any statistically informed marketing researcher or practitioner. Economists and other social scientists will find a comprehensive treatment of many Bayesian methods that are central to the problems in social science more generally. This includes a practical approach to computationally challenging problems in random coefficient models, non-parametrics, and the problems of endogeneity. Discussion of modern statistical software, including an introduction to the R package bayesm, which implements all models incorporated here. Bayesian Statistics and Marketing is ideal for advanced students and researchers in marketing, business, and economics departments, as well as for any statistically savvy marketing practitioner.

Unlike the structured world of Computer Science, biology is complex, evolving, and often lacks clean abstract models. This book aims to serve as a guide for computer scientists who need to understand cell biology, breaking the field into three parts: biological mechanics, experimental methods, and language/nomenclature. While biological mechanics, which investigates cellular-level details, is covered by many texts, this book also focuses on experimental methods – how biologists conduct experiments and gather data - and on helping the reader understand the language and terminology of biology, which is rich but challenging for non-biologists. A Computer Scientist's Guide to Cell Biology uses a metaphor of biology as a strange land with an unfamiliar language and customs. The goal of the book is to provide a high-level introduction to cell biology, simplifying concepts and relating them to familiar ideas from Computer Science, so that working computer scientists can more effectively understand read recent research papers and results. This Second Edition contains a number of updates, including discussions of CRISPR, advances in DNA Sequencing, and mRNA vaccines. It serves as an easy-to-read travel guide for computer scientists navigating the intricate and sometimes perplexing terrain of cell biology, offering insights into experimental methods and helping bridge the gap between the structured world of Computer Science and the complexities of biological systems. This book is for the many curious souls who are coming into biology from backgrounds in Computer Science, especially the fields of information retrieval, natural language processing (NLP), and/or Machine Learning. One major difference between biology and Computer Science is that in Computer Science, the world we explore is in large part our own creation, and a large part of what we do is make our creation understandable by finding useful abstractions, and then building more complex things by combining these abstractions together. This book is for the many curious souls who are coming into biology from backgrounds in Computer Science, especially the fields of information retrieval, natural language processing (NLP), and/or Machine Learning.
