This book is great for children of all ages, and sends a great message to our little ones. The Cliff Notes book is not a quick fix, but it is the best guide out there - a guide - as it says .. My just-finished-kindergartener who attends a Spanish Immersion school is loving books where she can LEARN as she reads to us. Sofia showed determination and perseverance in completing the task her aunt gave her.Grace Lee's illustrations are colorful and full of details your child will enjoy .As I finished the story, I thought, with all the unfinished books in the secret library, this book could be the first of many unfinished stories that Sofia will finish. I borrowed this, along with several similar books from the library to prepare for giving birth in about two months. I was hooked from page one and read it withing 2 days. If you are not getting a good score, it is probably because you are not following the strategies exactly and cutting corners. In addition, the illustrations are cheap, cartoonish, and often as ambiguous as the writing. This book has now been read over and over and over. I bought this for a 6th grade student that had a lot of trouble re-telling stories. Great book! Having lived and worked in New York City for over 60 years, I experienced this story first hand in real-time via theoccasional
"The book is written in a clear style, with a sufficient number of figures illustrating the algorithms .This new insight into complex problems of the brain, as well as the proposed methodology, makes the book highly readable and interesting." --Computing Reviews"The author shows that the proposed neuroidal model supports the cognitive activities he identifies. It provides a good structure to explore the functions of the mind still further." -- IEEE Spectrum"Although there are many books today dealing with a simple neuronal model based on the weighted sum principle, this one rises above these others in providing an explanation of cognitive functions." --Choice. Leslie G. Valiant, Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, Harvard UniversityIn this groundbreaking work, computer scientist Leslie G. Valiant details a promising new computational approach to studying the intricate workings of the human brain. While embracing the now classic theories of McCulloch and Pitts, the neuroidal model also accommodates state information in the neurons, more flexible timing mechanisms, a variety of assumptions about interconnectivity, and the possibility that different areas perform different functions. Valiant proposes a "neuroidal model" that serves as a vehicle to explore these fascinating questions. Focusing on the brain's enigmatic ability to access a massive store of accumulated information very quickly during reasoning processes, the author asks how such feats are possible given the extreme constraints imposed by the brain's finite number of neurons, their limited speed of communication, and their restricted interconnectivity. Requiring no specialized knowledge, Circuits of the Mind, masterfully offers an exciting new approach to brain science for students and researchers in computer science, neurobiology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science.. The theory also provides a quantitative explanation of how randomly pl
