"Arguably the strangest (yet coolest) concept record in the Discos Fuentes catalog, this compendium of trippy tropical madness masquerading as "international" cumbias features the venerable Argentinian showbiz couple Tita Duval and Roberto Rey. Dominga Salazar Azula (1924-2008), aka Tita Duval, was an Argentinian-born accordionist, saxophonist, and singer based in Medellín, Colombia. She was also enamored of the tropical genres from Colombia's coastal regions; she was equally lauded for her abilities interpreting both her native tango as well as the cumbia of her immigrant home, a skill perhaps as unprecedented and unique as it was improbable. Recorded with her husband Rey (Adán Azula), the well-known Argentinian music impresario who had also emigrated to Colombia, Cumbias Internacionales was an attempt to fuse hippie pop sensibilities with the tropical music for which Duval was famous. The album combines a mix of Afro rhythms, social commentary, and psychedelic instrumentation such as the electric Varitone sax, echo-drenched flute, Mellotron, and spacey organ, which transport the proceedings to another level. The record starts out innocently enough with the thoroughly Colombian "Oye Mi Cumbia", albeit with a processed electronic reed section, but the tunes get weirder from there with "Safari, Safari", pseudo-psychedelic disco-Afrobeat cumbia with heavily-accented English lyrics. The amazingness continues with "The Poor man" ('El Hombre Pobre') fighting for justice, over a loping reggae/porro hybrid, with drum breaks bringing to mind American funk! This is followed by a boogaloo, "Zombie Rock". The side finishes out with a jam of epic proportions that has to be heard to be believed; it morphs into another mix of cumbia and soul, complete with Stax horns stabs. Side B kicks off with, the thumping Afro-funk burner "Batukacuto"? with a floating pied-piper flute. Tita Duval herself brings us back to Earth with "Cumbia mujer", which she sings in a sweet voice. Then comes surely the weirdest version of "My Way" featuring Tita's echo-drenched warbling. We end on an up note with the most traditional-sounding tune, "Claudia." Which combines cumbia lyrics and costeño-style clarinet with merengue beats and Varitone; indescribably delicious. A satisfying trip to be sure, but still a head-scratcher. In retrospect, the album is a hip, exotic, experimental Afro-psychedelic brew that's even more mind-blowing when you consider Duval was 50 and her husband 60 at the time it was recorded." -Pablo Yglesias aka DJ Bongohead. Presented in facsimile artwork and pressed on 180 gram vinyl.

Ok content, not great explanations (2.5 our of 5 stars)
Format: Paperback
I found the contents of this book to be simply ok: either too simple, or the more complicated algorithms and concepts would not be as carefully explained as they should have been. It is not a terrible book, but it feels as though the author did not go over many drafts/iterations of this work.

An Excellent Self-Discovery Approach to Learning Algorithms
Format: Paperback
I have an Ivy League Master's Degree in Computer Science although it was accomplished 35 years ago. Of course, I had to complete an ACM-type course in Algorithms and Data Structures on the undergraduate and graduate level and managed to by rote accomplish enough to satisfy these courses. But until seeing this great book I never had the feeling of gaining an understanding of the approach to learning and building algorithms and the extent to which it is an important component of all programs. By a journey of guided self-discovery the author shows, not only the necessity of algorithms and their canonical forms, but a path to understanding the construction of algorithms to accomplish common and not so common practical problems. These range from the simple to understand, e.g. implementing Russian Peasant Multiplication, to advanced and up to date topics like Machine Learning. The highest praise I can give this book is that as a journey of guided self-discovery it produces an understanding in the reader of the process of constructing and understanding these algorithms and their place in all programming.

Easy to understand, makes algorithms exciting again!
Format: Kindle
Dive Into Algorithms speaks to me directly as a very intrepid beginner myself. I was given another "learn Python" book several years ago and it languishes on a shelf undisturbed to this day. Dive Into Algorithms had me hooked by the first parfait recipe. Mr. Tuckfield explains concepts in such a way that any student can learn something. The history, physics, cooking, and math lessons teach us that algorithms are everywhere, and they're not big scary 'big data' monsters out to ruin us. Instead, they're tools to help understand the world around us. This book has made me excited about programming again. Thank you.

Don't buy. Author's okay effort to publish what seems like a rough draft.
Format: Paperback
Poorly written, unnecessarily complex wording to code introduction/explanations, and path to solutions (cover to cover of the book) are the most bizarre of choices. Excessively wordy and dramatic (i.e. "let me tell you the entire history of human kind before we dive into anything programming/problem solving related." ). Either he's new to publishing or programming, or both. PASS.
