Further, important contributions come from the philosopher Daniel Dennett, the Turing biographer Andrew Hodges, and from the distinguished logician Martin Davis, who provides a first critical essay on an emerging and controversial field termed "hypercomputation".

The “refreshing . . . laugh-out-loud” #1 New York Times bestseller about life in the suburbs that was adapted into a classic film comedy (Kirkus Reviews). One day, Tony Award–winning playwright Jean Kerr packed up her four kids (and husband, Walter, one of Broadway’s sharpest critics), and left New York City. They moved to a faraway part of the world that promised a grassy utopia where daisies grew wild and homes were described as neo-gingerbread. In this collection of “wryly observant” essays, Kerr chronicles her new life in this strange land called Larchmont (TheWashington Post). It sounds like bliss—no more cramped apartments and nightmarish after-theater cocktail parties where the martinis were never dry enough. Now she has her very own washer/dryer, a garden, choice seats at the hottest new third-grade school plays (low overhead but they’ll never recoup their losses), and a fresh new kind of lunacy. In Please Don’t Eat the Daisies “Jean Kerr cooks with laughing gas” as she explores the everyday absurdities, anxieties, and joys of marriage, family, friends, home decorating, and maintaining a career—but this time with a garage! (Time).

Daisies at Dawn is a collection of poetry about different emotions; from feeling hopeful, sad, fearful to overwhelming anxiety. About the experience of sadness, heartbreak, healing and love. The book is divided into seven chapters, and each chapter serves a different purpose. Daisies at Dawn takes readers through a journey of bittersweet moments in life and finds a chance of new beginning if you have faith and hope. Their petals may have wilted, their stems may not stand as tall, their leaves may have fallen off, and they may not be picked from the garden. But daisies bloom at dawn, and each time when the sky cries. They remind me that beauty is present, in all creations that exist, in difference and in imperfection. They remind me of hopes and new beginnings, and sprinkle happiness in my life.
