Murder and Mayhem in the Finger Lakes

Murder and Mayhem in the Finger Lakes
R. Marcin, "Murder and Mayhem in the Finger Lakes "
English | ISBN: 1467146145 | 2020 | 160 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The pristine waters of the Finger Lakes inspire tranquility, but the region has not been spared a history of high-profile murders. George Chapman's execution for killing a hostler in a drunken rage drew one of the largest crowds in Seneca County's history. Charles Sprague was the only person from Yates County to be executed and the last person electrocuted at Auburn Prison after shooting a neighbor in a dispute over potatoes. A plea of insanity did not save James Williams from the electric chair after murdering an elderly man and attempting to rape a teenage girl. In the Feedbag Murder, the body of a missing man was found in a canal, and his friend was acquitted of the murder despite confessing to the crime years later. Author R. Marcin explores the gruesome history of homicide in the Finger Lakes.

Morton Feldman Friendship and Mourning in the New York Avant-Garde
Ryan Dohoney, "Morton Feldman: Friendship and Mourning in the New York Avant-Garde"
English | ISBN: 150134546X | 2022 | 232 pages | PDF | 5 MB
Morton Feldman: Friendship and Mourning in the New York Avant-Garde documents the collaborations and conflicts essential to the history of the post-war avant-garde. It offers a study of composer Morton Feldman's associations and friendships with artists like John Cage, Jackson Pollock, Philip Guston, Frank O'Hara, Charlotte Moorman, and others. Arguing that friendship and mourning sustained the collective aesthetics of the New York School, Dohoney has written an emotional and intimate revision of New York modernism from the point of view of Feldman's agonistic community.

Monte Carlo Strategies in Scientific Computing
Monte Carlo Strategies in Scientific Computing by Jun S. Liu
English | PDF | 2004 | 350 Pages | ISBN : 0387763694 | 29.1 MB
This book provides a self-contained and up-to-date treatment of the Monte Carlo method and develops a common framework under which various Monte Carlo techniques can be "standardized" and compared. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the topics and a moderate prerequisite for the reader, this book should be of interest to a broad audience of quantitative researchers such as computational biologists, computer scientists, econometricians, engineers, probabilists, and statisticians. It can also be used as the textbook for a graduate-level course on Monte Carlo methods. Many problems discussed in the alter chapters can be potential thesis topics for masters' or Ph.D. students in statistics or computer science departments.
