Tento autor čerpá z kořenů jižanského jihu, kde vyrůstal a kde na něj dodnes dohlížejí nezdolní dospělí z jeho mládí. Jeho dílo odráží jejich nepřemoženého ducha a nezdolnost. Pohybuje se v širokém spektru témat, ale vždy se vrací k tomuto silnému vlivu.
Indian labor was vital to the early economic development of the Los Angeles region. This first volume in the series Before Gold: California under Spain and Mexico explores for the first time Native contributions to early Southern California.
In addition to coverage of univariate interpolation and approximation, the text includes material on multivariate interpolation and multivariate numerical integration, a generalization of the Bernstein polynomials that has not previously appeared in book form, and a greater coverage of Peano kernel theory than is found in most textbooks. There are many worked examples and each section ends with a number of carefully selected problems that extend the student's understanding of the text. The author is well known for his clarity of writing and his many contributions as a researcher in approximation theory.
George Hill was just sixteen when he enlisted into the army. After only a few weeks in France, he was in the midst of St Quentin and the full horrors of trench warfare. After several months at the front, he was gassed and spent the last days of the war in a field hospital. This book is the harrowing story based on his experiences.
