Book Description
The memoirs of Australia's premiere rescue dog and foster bro extraordinaire, Pikelet Butterwiggle Stoll. Once a dog without a name on death row (albeit one with extremely good looks and pawfect cheekbones), Pikelet now lives a charmed life in inner-city Sydney with his beloved Ma and Pa, big little brother Patty Cakes and Spinster Sisters Betty and Blanche. How did he go from being a tiny no-name pup with developmental deformities to one of Australia's most recognisable fur faces, with a massive online 'pack' on social media? It all started when someone took a chance on him and saved him from his fate at the pound. Today, Pikelet and his family are proud advocates of pet rescue and 'Adopt, don't shop'. In the four years since Pikelet celebrated his own 'Gotcha Day', he has been foster brother to an extraordinary number of dogs and pups, as well as an unexpected pair of ducklings and one larger-than-life pig. Despite all the hashtags and selfies Pikelet knows how to keep it real, and he documents the highs and lows of pet rescue and foster care, which all pet owners and animal lovers will relate to.

Pages : 400

Book Description
"Cora Bellamy is a woman who thrives on organization. She's successfully run her own dog training business for years, perfectly content with her beloved rescue pitbull as the main man in her life. She's given everything to her business, and her lack of social life (or slobber-free clothes) has been completely worth it. But all that changes when she meets Charlie Gill, the hottest client she's ever had. The only problem? Charlie's taken. Luckily, Cora has a new friend--the sweet, lovably geeky Eli Crawford. More loyal than a retriever, he's always there to help Cora with her problems, including her love life. That's why she's shocked to realize that even as things start heating up with Charlie, there might just be a more-than-friends spark between her and Eli, too. As Cora's life gets more tangled up than a dogwalker's leashes--and as she prepares to audition for a dog-training TV show that may irrevocably change her entire life--she has to figure things out before it all goes straight to the dogs."--

The author of Dirt Music and The Riders captures the urgency of memory and the way an entire life can be shaped by one event from the past in this capsule of connected stories set on the coast of Western Australia. Tim Winton's stunning collection of connected stories is about turnings of all kinds—changes of heart, slow awakenings, nasty surprises and accidents, sudden detours, resolves made or broken. Brothers cease speaking to each other, husbands abandon wives and children, grown men are haunted by childhood fears. People struggle against the weight of their own history and try to reconcile themselves to their place in the world. With extraordinary insight and tenderness, Winton explores the demons and frailties of ordinary people whose lives are not what they had hoped.

The Little Typer

The Little Typer PDF Author: Daniel P. Friedman
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262536439
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 418

Book Description
An introduction to dependent types, demonstrating the most beautiful aspects, one step at a time. A program's type describes its behavior. Dependent types are a first-class part of a language, and are much more powerful than other kinds of types; using just one language for types and programs allows program descriptions to be as powerful as the programs they describe. The Little Typer explains dependent types, beginning with a very small language that looks very much like Scheme and extending it to cover both programming with dependent types and using dependent types for mathematical reasoning. Readers should be familiar with the basics of a Lisp-like programming language, as presented in the first four chapters of The Little Schemer. The first five chapters of The Little Typer provide the needed tools to understand dependent types; the remaining chapters use these tools to build a bridge between mathematics and programming. Readers will learn that tools they know from programming—pairs, lists, functions, and recursion—can also capture patterns of reasoning. The Little Typer does not attempt to teach either practical programming skills or a fully rigorous approach to types. Instead, it demonstrates the most beautiful aspects as simply as possible, one step at a time.
