Data structures and algorithms are among the most important inventions of the last 50 years, and they are fundamental tools software engineers need to know.

International Finance Theory and Policy is built on Steve Suranovic's belief that to understand the international economy, students need to learn how economic models are applied to real world problems. It is true what they say, that "economists do it with models." That's because economic models provide insights about the world that are simply not obtainable solely by discussion of the issues. International Finance Theory and Policy develops a unified...

She proposes that we turn to contemplative education practices that...
