Mathematical Intelligence Bok
There's so much talk about the threat posed by intelligent machines that it sometimes seems as though we should surrender to our robot overlords. But Junaid Mubeen isn't ready to throw in the towel just yet. As far as he is concerned, we have the creative edge over machines, because of a remarkable system of thought that humans have developed over the millennia. It's familiar to us all, but often badly taught in schools and misrepresented in popular discourse - maths. Computers are, of course, brilliant at totting up sums, pattern-seeking and performing mindless tasks of, well, computation. For all things calculation, machines reign supreme. But Junaid identifies seven areas of intelligence where humans can retain a crucial edge. And in exploring these areas, he opens up a fascinating world where we can develop our uniquely human mathematical superpowers.

The Secret Lives Of Numbers Bok
<p><b>A revisionist, completely accessible and radically inclusive history of maths<br/><br/>'Lively, satisfying, good at explaining difficult concepts' <i>The Sunday Times</i></b><br/><br/>Mathematics shapes almost everything we do. But despite its reputation as the study of fundamental truths, the stories we have been told about it are wrong. In <i>The Secret Lives of Numbers</i>, historian Kate Kitagawa and journalist Timothy Revell introduce readers to the mathematical boundary-smashers who have been erased by history because of their race, gender or nationality.<br/><br/>From the brilliant Arabic scholars of the ninth-century House of Wisdom, and the pioneering African American mathematicians of the twentieth century, to the 'lady computers' around the world who revolutionised our knowledge of the night sky, we meet these fascinating trailblazers and see how they contributed to our global knowledge today.<br/><br/>This revisionist, completely accessible and radically inclusive history of mathematics is as entertaining as it is important.</p>

Counter-intelligence Bok
<p> <strong>From the codebreakers and problem solvers, to the engineers, mathematicians and other problem-solvers - what the secret world can teach us about performance and creativity </strong> </p> <p>How do you hire smart people who can work together to prevent terrorist attacks and decode encrypted technology?</p> <p>How do you come up with creative, counterintuitive solutions to solve major global problems?</p> <p>How do you provide the right environment for these people to thrive and work at their best when under immense pressure?</p> <p>Written by <strong>Robert Hannigan</strong>, the former Director of GCHQ, this book explores the role of the counter-intelligence services in history and today's world - from the codebreakers and problem solvers, to innovation and creativity, secrecy and transparency and the global tech community. It will trace the history of counter-intelligence - from the early days of Bletchley Park, to the ongoing work of GCHQ - while reflecting on some of the unique characteristics of the engineers, mathematicians and other problem-solvers that make up the world's intelligence community.</p> <p>An exhaustive and authoritative account of the history of counter-intelligence from Bletchley Park to modern day GCHQ, this brilliant and unique book will appeal to business readers, history readers and fans of smart thinking and big ideas around the world.</p>
