Python for Accounting and Finance
Python for Accounting and Finance: A Mind-Mapping Approach is an innovative textbook written for accounting and finance students and professionals with no prior coding experience. It introduces Python programming through a mind mapping approach that presents complex concepts in a clear and structured way to support understanding and retention.The book is organised into four parts: Python Basics, Data Analysis and Visualisation, Automation, and Machine Learning. It places programming within practical accounting and finance contexts so that learners can see the direct application of coding in their field. The textbook uses mind maps as a core instructional method. These visual diagrams show programming concepts and their connections, helping learners to understand, organise and recall information, particularly those who learn through visual representation.Enhanced with Google Colab notebooks, this book creates a highly supportive learning experience, equipping students of accounting and finance with essential programming skills for their speciality.

Head First Python
What will you learn from this book? Want to learn the Python language without slogging your way through how-to manuals? With Head First Python, you'll quickly grasp Python's fundamentals by working with built-in data structures and functions. You'll build your very own web app, which--once it's ready for prime time--runs in the cloud. You'll learn how to wrangle data with Python, scrape data from the web, feed data to pandas, and interact with databases. This third edition is a complete learning experience that will help you become a bona fide Python programmer in no time. What's so special about this book? If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect: a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven't, you're in for a treat. With this book, you'll learn Python through a multisensory experience that engages your mind--rather than a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.

Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy
Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy acts as a resource for science and engineering students or faculty who would like to see how a diverse selection of topics can be analyzed and simulated using Python programs. The book also provides Python solutions that can be learned from and modified as needed. The book is mainly aimed at undergraduates, but since many science students and faculty have limited exposure to scientific programming, having a collection of examples that address curve-fitting, Fast Fourier Transforms, image photometry and image alignment, and many others could be very helpful not just for learning from, but also to support classroom projects and demonstrations.Key Features:Features tutorials using Python for non-computer science students and faculty involved with scientific programmingContains complete scientific programming examples for teaching and academic projectsPresents detailed Python solutions for Physics and Astronomy topics, not normally covered in depth, because they would be too time-consumingPurchasers of the book can access the accompanying computer code via the Instructor Resources Download Hub.

Andre Messager
Despite the immense popularity of his works for musical theater in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Andre Messager has, to a large extent, been neglected by contemporary musicologists and musicians outside France. This book offers a new appraisal of Messager's life and work, correcting errors perpetuated in previous bibliographies, and documenting the broad scope of his contributions as a composer, conductor, and artistic director of several of the great operatic companies of Paris and London.A biographical sketch, the first ever written in English, is followed by a comprehensive list of works that supplies details of first performances, their publication, and principal reviews. The list covers songs and instrumental compositions, as well as operettas and other works for the stage. The bibliography lists not only titles that deal specifically with Messager but also a number of general works that may prove useful in the study of the period in which Messager lived and worked. Archival materials are listed together with more generally available printed sources. The volume includes a discography, appendices, and an index. Providing comprehensive, up-to-date information in a convenient format, this bio-bibliography will be a valuable research tool for studies of French music of the period.

Advanced Data Science and Analytics with Python
The second edition of Advanced Data Science and Analytics with Python reflects the rapid transformation of artificial intelligence in recent years. While preserving its practical, modular structure, this edition significantly expands coverage of the techniques shaping modern AI practice.The deep learning chapter has been substantially broadened to include reinforcement learning and generative adversarial networks, alongside a fully developed exploration of transformer architectures. Generative AI now takes centre stage, with dedicated coverage of self-attention, BERT, GPT, large language model evaluation and API-based interaction. Emerging agentic systems are introduced as part of the evolving AI landscape. Natural language processing has been enhanced with word embeddings, contextual representations and vector search, while network analysis now includes graph representation learning and embedding techniques. The chapter on data product deployment has been strengthened with modern Core ML workflows and new coverage of on-device Foundation Models, bridging experimentation and production.Fully updated for the contemporary Python ecosystem, this edition equips practitioners with the tools and architectural understanding required to design, build and deploy intelligent systems in today’s AI-driven world.

Andrew Lang
In a remarkable literary career, Andrew Lang challenged the increasing specialism that accompanied the advance of modernity and science in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, authoring an extraordinary body of rigorous, scholarly works in the fields of social anthropology, folklore, Homeric studies, history, and religion, while simultaneously turning out novels, poems for periodicals, and inexhaustible columns of prose journalism to make money. He was widelyregarded as one of the most influential men of letters and reviewers of his day. He was a founding member and later President of the Folklore Society, and, with his wife, helped transform the taste in children's literature with their anthologized fairy stories for young people. G. K. Chesterton,paying tribute on Lang's death in 1912 to the scale and diversity of his legacy to the humanities, compared him to a 'kind of Indian god with a hundred hands'. Drawing on a wealth of unpublished correspondence and new sources of information, this first full biography of Lang documents in compelling detail his double existence as a scholar and journalist, the intellectual impact of his cross-disciplinary approach to learning and writing, and the critical controversies he courted as a writer and thinker to advance knowledge in the human sciences. The book also throws new light on Lang's personal life: on the uncomfortable legacy of his grandfather,whose notorious part in the Sutherland Clearances earlier in the century left its mark on the family; on the enduring influence on him of his early Scottish education and its generalist traditions of learning; and on his friendships with fellow writers, among them Robert Louis Stevenson, Henry James,Rider Haggard, Edmund Gosse, Rhoda Broughton, and William Henley. The result is a fascinating portrait of a man who lived one of the most productive lives in literature, sought to make knowledge available to everyone, and bridged, as no other, the university and the literary world, the proverbial 'Grub Street and the ivory tower'.
