The city was cloaked in darkness, its streets illuminated only by the dim glow of streetlights. Shadows danced along the alleyways, hiding secrets and whispers of danger. In the heart of the metropolis, a new criminal organization was silently taking root-a dangerous force that would test the limits of justice and challenge the resolve of those who fought against corruption. It began with a single encrypted code-a message delivered to Detective Sarah Collins. Its origins were unknown, its purpose shrouded in mystery. But Sarah, a seasoned investigator with a deep-rooted commitment to justice, recognized the significance of the code. It was a call to arms, a warning that the battle was far from over. As Sarah delved into the intricate patterns of the code, she could sense the weight of the unseen adversary, lurking in the shadows, waiting to strike. The code hinted at an organization more elusive, more cunning than anything she had encountered before. It whispered of an imminent threat, a darkness that threatened to engulf the city and the lives of the innocent. Sarah's past battles had left scars-both visible and unseen-but they had also forged her into a relentless seeker of truth. She had faced unimaginable dangers, unraveled complex conspiracies, and exposed the darkest corners of society. The scars she carried were not just reminders of her own struggles, but also reminders of the lives she had touched and the victories she had achieved. And now, as she stood on the precipice of a new investigation, Sarah knew that her journey was not yet complete. The encrypted code before her was a testament to the resilience of evil, an echo of the ongoing battle for justice. The fight against crime and corruption had become ingrained in her very being-a flame that burned bright, driving her forward, even in the face of the unknown.

In this book lies a key for decoding modern medical terminology, a living language that, despite some quirks, is best approached as an ordered system. Rather than presenting a mere list of word elements to be absorbed through rote memorization, The Hippocrates Code offers a thorough, linguistically-centered explanation of the rules of the terminological game, both for the language of medicine and for scientific vocabulary in general. Its careful exposition of Latin and Greek linguistic principles—along with a healthy dose of innovative exercises—empowers students to successfully employ the word elements that are the building blocks of modern medical terminology. Along the way, fascinating discussions of the practice of medicine in the ancient world provide an integral aid to the understanding of medical vocabulary. Code-breakers drawn to language, history, and medicine will be as stimulated as they are enlightened. The Hippocrates Code features: Twenty-eight chapters covering the principles behind the formation of medical vocabulary derived from Latin and Greek, complete with a rich harvest of the most useful prefixes, suffixes, and bases Detailed anatomical diagrams paired with an etymological tour of the human body Selected readings from ancient medical writers, with commentaries that compare and contrast medical practices in antiquity with those of the present day An abundant array of diverse and often ingenious exercises that require critical thinking about the application of word elements. For additional vocabulary practice, exercises, pronunciation aids, and much more The Hippocrates Code companion website: www.hippocratescode.com

Originally published in England and cowritten with her father, "In Code" is "a wonderfully moving story about the thrill of the mathematical chase" ("Nature") and "a paean to intellectual adventure" ("Times Educational Supplement"). A memoir in mathematics, it is all about how a girl next door became an award-winning mathematician. photo insert.

Introducing "Cracking the Code: Unraveling the Secrets of Lost Civilizations," a compelling journey into the mysteries of ancient societies. This meticulously researched book invites you on an adventure through time, decoding the enigmas left behind by civilizations long gone. Within the pages of "Cracking the Code," you'll discover:

Assembly is a low-level programming language that's one step above a computer's native machine language. Although assembly language is commonly used for writing device drivers, emulators, and video games, many programmers find its somewhat unfriendly syntax intimidating to learn and use. Since 1996, Randall Hyde's The Art of Assembly Language has provided a comprehensive, plain-English, and patient introduction to 32-bit x86 assembly for non-assembly programmers. Hyde's primary teaching tool, High Level Assembler (or HLA), incorporates many of the features found in high-level languages (like C, C++, and Java) to help you quickly grasp basic assembly concepts. HLA lets you write true low-level code while enjoying the benefits of high-level language programming. As you read The Art of Assembly Language, you'll learn the low-level theory fundamental to computer science and turn that understanding into real, functional code. You'll learn how to: –Edit, compile, and run HLA programs –Declare and use constants, scalar variables, pointers, arrays, structures, unions, and namespaces –Translate arithmetic expressions (integer and floating point) –Convert high-level control structures This much anticipated second edition of The Art of Assembly Language has been updated to reflect recent changes to HLA and to support Linux, Mac OS X, and FreeBSD. Whether you're new to programming or you have experience with high-level languages, The Art of Assembly Language, 2nd Edition is your essential guide to learning this complex, low-level language.
