    The focus of this text is to solve real-world problems using the latest AI techniques. Intelligent systems like expert systems, fuzzy systems, artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms and ant colony systems are discussed in detail with case studies to facilitate in- depth understanding. Since the ultimate goal of AI is the construction of programs to solve problems, an entire chapter has been devoted to the programming languages used in AI problem solving. The theory is well supported by a large number of illustrations and end-chapter exercises. With its comprehensive coverage of the subject in a clear and concise manner this text would be extremely useful not only for undergraduate students, but also to postgraduate students.

    Working out the design of a machine as a whole, or its components, usually involvesthe use of several formulae, graphs, standard tables and other relevant data. Availability of all such information in one handbook not only eliminates the unnecessary task ot remembering the required formulae and equations, but also helps design engineers to solve the problems in machine design quickly and efficiently.This handbook has been prepared keeping these basics in mind. References have been made to several standard textbooks on machine design while compiling the data of this book. In the preparation of the fourth edition, most of the chapters and topics have been upgraded and improved by adding additional information on current design.

    It is ideal for students preparing to take the state civil service examinations or any other competitive exams where Indian history is a subject of relevance.The first section begins by looking at the pre-historic cultures in India and goes on to discuss the Indus valley civilization and the Mauryan empire. The second section, on medieval India, looks at significant developments post Gupta dynasty and the rise and fall of the Mughal empire. The third section is on modern India, which majorly focuses on the advent of British rule in the country and the Indian struggle for independence.Each section in the book begins with a brief overview of the period represented through a chronological timeline. A separate section on revision is given at the end, followed by a series of model test papers for self-evaluation.About Krishna ReddyKrishna Reddy has also authored Bharat Ka Itihas and General Knowledge Digest 2010.

    Mining there, as everywhere, was not an easy life, but regardless of the risk, there was something about being underground, the lure of hitting a deep vein of silver. The promise of good money and the intense bonds of friendship brought men back year after year. Mining is about being a man and a fighter in a job where tomorrow always brings the hope of a big score. On May 2, 1972, 174 miners entered Sunshine Mine on their daily quest for silver. Aboveground, safety engineer Bob Launhardt sat in his office, filing his usual mountain of federal and state paperwork. From his office window he could see the air shafts that fed fresh air into the mine, more than a mile below the surface. The air shafts usually emitted only tiny coughs of exhaust; unlike dangerously combustible coal mines, Sunshine was a fireproof hardrock mine, nothing but cold, dripping wet stone. There were many safety concerns at Sunshine, but fire wasn’t one of them. The men and the company swore the mine was unburnable, so when thick black smoke began pouring from one of the air shafts, Launhardt was as amazed as he was alarmed. When the alarm sounded, less than half of the dayshift was able to return to the surface. The others were trapped underground, too deep in the mine to escape. Scores of miners died almost immediately, frozen in place as they drilled, ate lunch, napped, or chatted. No one knew what was burning or where the smoke had come from. But in one of the deepest corners of the mine, Ron Flory and Tom Wilkinson were left alone and in total darkness, surviving off a trickle of fresh air from a borehole. The miners’ families waited and prayed, while Launhardt, reeling from the shock of losing so many men on his watch, refused to close up the mine or give up the search until he could be sure that no one was left underground.In The Deep Dark, Gregg Olsen looks beyond the intensely suspenseful story of the fire and rescue to the wounded heart of Kellogg, a quintessential company town that has never recovered from its loss. A vivid and haunting chapter in the history of working-class America, this is one of the great rescue stories of the twentieth century.From the Hardcover edition.

    Williams any rock used as building material can tell a fascinating story. All he has to do is look at building stone in any urban center to find a range of rocks equal to any assembled by plate tectonics. In Stories in Stone, he takes you on his explorations to find 3.5-billion-year-old rock that looks like swirled pink and black taffy, a gas station made of petrified wood, and a Florida fort that has withstood 300 years of attacks and hurricanes, despite being made of a stone that has the consistency of a granola bar.In Stories in Stone, Williams also weaves in the cultural history of stone. He shows why a white, fossil-rich limestone from Indiana became the only building stone to be used in all 50 states; how in 1825, the construction of the Bunker Hill Monument led to America's first commercial railroad; and why when the same kind of marble used by Michelangelo was used on a Chicago skyscraper it warped so much after 19 years that all 44,000 panels of the stone had to be replaced. A love letter to building stone, from New England brownstone and Morton Gneiss of Minnsota to the limestone of Salem, Indiana; from granite and travertine to Carrara marble, David Willilams brings to life the stones you will see in the structures of every city, large and small. After reading his book, you will forever look at stone buildings with new eyes.

Overcoming addiction is tough and, with opiates, many find it nearly impossible. Overdose deaths from prescription painkillers have more than quadrupled over the last fifteen years, and this is just a fraction of the problem. In fact, with prescription opiate addiction now shown to be a gateway drug to heroin, the issue is only getting worse. Last year alone, 11.5 million Americans abused some type of opioid, and more than 660,000 have used heroin in the past year. If you or someone you love is addicted to opiates, Opiate Addiction , now in its 6th Edition, offers a powerful message balanced with both useful information and hope for a way out from its stifling grip. There is no doubt that addiction is a cunning and cruel disease that robs its victims of nearly everything. Those suffering from opiate addiction are often baffled by its effects on their lives and the devastation that can be wrought in such a short period of time. Loved ones feel helpless and hopeless as they are forced to stand by and watch as someone they care about erodes before their eyes. Are you looking to move beyond addiction? With a clear approach to providing hard facts and drawing on her own history of opiate addiction and recovery, author Taite Adams is able to give the opiate addict or their loved ones answers to many questions, allay common fears, and provide a clear direction for a way out. Some of the areas that are addressed in detail are: The Opiate Addiction Epidemic What are Opiates and How They Work Pain Pills and Painkiller Addiction Prescription Drug Abuse and Chronic Pain Heroin Addiction Opiate Maintenance Drugs and Substitution Therapy Opiate Addiction as a Disease A Way Out for the Opiate Addict Managing Opiate Detox Going to Treatment for Opiate Addiction and Much More Whether just coming to terms with the idea that there is a "problem", looking for opiate detox help, or considering going to treatment, opiate and heroin addiction help is available in many forms and Opiate Addiction is an invaluable tool to get your questions answered about overcoming addiction and help you move one step closer to freedom and to a better way of life. 6th Edition Released January 10, 2018.
