Y Si...? Una Increible Forma de Percibir La Realidad

Resumen del Libro

"Some things are so huge or so old that it's hard to wrap your mind around them. But what if we took these big, hard-to-imagine objects and events and compared them to things we can see, feel and touch? Instantly, we'd see our world in a whole new way." So begins this endlessly intriguing guide to better understanding all those really big ideas and numbers children come across on a regular basis. Author David J. Smith has found clever devices to scale down everything from time lines (the history of Earth compressed into one year), to quantities (all the wealth in the world divided into one hundred coins), to size differences (the planets shown as different types of balls). Accompanying each description is a kid-friendly drawing by illustrator Steve Adams that visually reinforces the concept. An excellent classroom reference that can be reached for again and again when studying scale and measurement in math, and also for any number of applications in social studies, science and language arts.

¿A que no sabes ...? : curso de perfeccionamiento de español para extranjeros. [Hauptband]

Este libro, resultado de un proceso de experimentación diaria a lo largo de varios años de docencia en la Escuela Oficial de Idiomas de Barcelona, está concebido como un curso de perfeccionamento de español para extranjeros, con la intención de paliar la escasez de material ofrecido a los profesores que, si bien afecta a todos los niveles, resulta especialmente pobre en lo que atañe a los cursos superiores. Esperamos, pues, que nuestra aportación contribuya a llenar una parte de ese vacío metodológico. (...) [Fonte: INTRODUCCION, P. 5-6 (trascriz. parz. a cura di G.M.)].

Inteligencia artificial: computadoras y máquinas inteligentes (Artificial Intelligence: Clever Computers and Smart Machines)

For ages, the idea of machines that think and act on their own has gripped scientists, thinkers, and the general public. This book explores the history of artificial intelligence (A.I.), and how science fiction is quickly becoming science fact.
