A Group of Noble Dames

Thomas Hardy

A group of "local historians" of men comes together and tells each other stories about women from the past. All stories are connected with love, marriage to the wrong person and illegitimate children. This says a lot about how women looked at that time. Even those in abundance had very little influence and were often convicted of using it when they had a chance.

A gwiazdy wszystko widziały

Tamara Reznikova

Młoda kobieta, nie mogąc poradzić sobie z problemami, które ją spotkały, zostawiła dwumiesięczną córkę bezdzietnemu małżeństwu na werandzie domu w Gruzji. Zostawiając jedno, zabrała drugie maleństwo ze sobą do Rosji, mając nadzieję, że ten sekret nigdy nie zostanie ujawniony. Kobieta nie podejrzewała, jakie piętno pozostawiła jej przyszłemu losowi i życiu jej córek. Minęło trzydzieści pięć lat, zanim bliźniaczki Svetlana i Tamara po raz pierwszy się zobaczyły. Tamara Reznikova urodziła się w słonecznej Gruzji. Gdy miała dwa miesiące, matka przywiozła ją do Rosji. Położone na południu kraju uzdrowiskowe miasto Anapa pokochała na zawsze.

Podczas licznych podróży Tamara spotykała różnych ludzi. Na podstawie ich życiowych historii zaczęła pisać powieści i opowiadania o drodze człowieka do Boga.  

A Handbook of Mathematical Models with Python. Elevate your machine learning projects with NetworkX, PuLP, and linalg

Dr. Ranja Sarkar

Mathematical modeling is the art of transforming a business problem into a well-defined mathematical formulation. Its emphasis on interpretability is particularly crucial when deploying a model to support high-stake decisions in sensitive sectors like pharmaceuticals and healthcare.Through this book, you’ll gain a firm grasp of the foundational mathematics underpinning various machine learning algorithms. Equipped with this knowledge, you can modify algorithms to suit your business problem. Starting with the basic theory and concepts of mathematical modeling, you’ll explore an array of mathematical tools that will empower you to extract insights and understand the data better, which in turn will aid in making optimal, data-driven decisions. The book allows you to explore mathematical optimization and its wide range of applications, and concludes by highlighting the synergetic value derived from blending mathematical models with machine learning.Ultimately, you’ll be able to apply everything you’ve learned to choose the most fitting methodologies for the business problems you encounter.

George Griffiths

George Griffiths became famous for the first novels about interplanetary travel. Lenox, Earl of Redgrave, made the greatest scientific discovery in the history of the world: a flying ship, capable of escaping from the gravity of the Earth and rising to the stars. Lenox steals his sweetheart, because she is going to marry the one she doesnt love. He stole her and brought her out of this world literally. This adventure promises to be interesting.

A Horses Tale

Mark Twain

It was interesting how Twain switched between stories. For example, a horse started a story from a first-person perspective. At first, people told, then letters told about past events, often to characters who do not participate in the events of history, and, finally, animals told other animals about the dialogue.

A House to Let

Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell, Adelaide Ann Procter

A House to Let is a novella originally published in 1858 by Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Elizabeth Gaskell and Adelaide Anne Procter. Each of the contributors wrote a chapter (stories within a story, and in the case of Adelaide Anne Procter, as a story in verse) and the whole was edited by Dickens, making it fit together seamlessly as a whole. This novella is a composite tale of mystery and intrigue set amid the dark streets of Victorian London. It is about a house that has remained vacant for several years which as come to the notice of an elderly woman named Sophonisba. She wants to know why the house is vacant, which is what the various chapters set out to explain, through the histories of various tenants. A House of Let is a seriously underrated novella that captures the mystery and humor of a fabulous story of bygone days.
