"The Theory That Would Not Die" How Bayes' Rule Cracked the Enigma Code, Hunted Down Russian Submarines, and Emerged Triumphant from Two Centuries of Controversy" Bayes' rule appears to be a straightforward, one-line theorem: by updating our initial beliefs with objective new information, we get a new and improved belief. To its adherents, it is an elegant statement about learning from experience. To its opponents, it is subjectivity run amok. In the first-ever account of Bayes' rule for general readers, Sharon Bertsch McGrayne explores this controversial theorem and the human obsessions surrounding it. She traces its discovery by an amateur mathematician in the 1740s through its development into roughly its modern form by French scientist Pierre Simon Laplace. She reveals why respected statisticians rendered it professionally taboo for 150 years%mdashat the same time that practitioners relied on it to solve crises involving great uncertainty and scanty information, even breaking Germany's Enigma code during World War II, and explains how the advent of off-the-shelf computer technology in the 1980s proved to be a game-changer. Today, Bayes' rule is used everywhere from DNA de-coding to Homeland Security. Sharon Bertsch McGrayne is the author of numerous books, including Nobel Prize Women in Science: Their Lives, Struggles, and Momentous Discoveries and Prometheans in the Lab: Chemistry and the Making of the Modern World.

Two bold young neuroscientists have initiated a revolution in the scientific study of sexual attraction. Before Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam, the only researcher to systematically investigate sexual desires was Alfred Kinsey, who surveyed 18000 middle-class Caucasians in the 1950s. But Ogas and Gaddam have studied the secret sexual behavior of more than a hundred million men and women around the world. Their method? They observed what people do within the anonymity of the Internet. www.billionwickedthoughts.com From: AtGoogleTalks Views: 14284 0 ratings Time: 48:48 More in Education

We're giving away a limited number of copies of the book before the talk. Here are a few brief reviews: "A brilliant tour through the iconography and literature of America's grandest corporate dreamtime, the Space Age." %mdashWilliam Gibson, author of Neuromancer and Pattern Recognition "I wish I had this book when I started Mad Men. This is exactly what I look for, a concise visual-historical reference of mid-century advertising. Megan Prelinger has uniquely and beautifully taken us on a trip back to space." %mdashGay Perello, Prop Master for Mad Men "Stupendous." %mdashJonathan Lethem, author of Motherless Brooklyn and The Fortress of Solitude "To the author of this remarkable work must go well-deserved laurels for rescuing rocket/space ad artwork from virtual obscurity. Megan Prelinger's book is a treasure that should find a worldwide readership of space historians, lovers of space art, and all who seek to understand the evolution of humanity's transition to a space-faring species." %mdashFred Ordway, former member of the Wernher von Braun rocket team and consultant to Stanley Kubrick for 2001: A Space Odyssey From: AtGoogleTalks Views: 1205 11 ratings Time: 38:17 More in Education

What is global leadership? It turns out that companies around the world are missing a key point: that global leadership is distinctly different from the leadership skills needed in a hierarchical, command-and-control domestic operation. The global economy requires a new set of leadership skills-vertical, cross-functional and across cultures and nationalities-that were not as critical even a decade ago. In What Is Global Leadership?, the authors draw on cutting-edge research conducted by Aperian Global, as well as first-hand interviews with successful global leaders, which highlights 10 key behaviors critical to international settings. Whether one is leading an entire organization, a business unit or a geographically dispersed team, this essential guide provides an important resource for developing global leadership talent.

Stan Slap spoke to Googlers in Mountain View on August 2, 2011 about his new book Bury My Heart at Conference Room B: The Unbeatable Impact of Truly Committed Managers. About the book: "The notion that values matter----in the workplace as well as at home----is certainly not new to the ranks of management gurus and corporate leaders. What is novel in consultant Slap's first book is his passion for the subject, which bleeds from every page, and his easy-to-use framework for identifying and promoting values throughout the business world. Setting the stage, first, involves explaining the business case for values: why everyone must live his or her personal values in the workplace and which companies adhere to that philosophy. In sidebars, Slap tells the stories of EMC, HP, Rhino Records, SAS, Quad/Graphics, and others that showcase the bottom-line impact of managerial emotional commitment. Next, then, are the value exercises: the list and definition of 50 values and the winnowing to 10, 5, and, finally, 3. As to be expected, the author leads us to organizational implementation, focusing on the selling of values to staff and, ultimately, to the C-suite. In a passion-infused narrative, Slap gives every manager the tools to change. Now, if it will only stick!" --Barbara Jacobs from Booklist Bury My Heart at Conference Room B is available as an ebook on the Google eBookstore: books.google.com From: AtGoogleTalks Views: 467 6 ratings Time: 51:46 More in People & Blogs

Brewmasters@Google: Shane Welch
Shane Welch is the founder and brewmaster of Sixpoint Craft Ales. Originally from Milwaukee, he got his start in college, where he realized his taste for flavorful beer could only be quenched by brewing it himself. With his background in math and chemistry, he constructed a "mini-brewery" in his basement and began experimenting. By the age of 20, he was sufficiently bored of academia and obsessed with beer making that he left college and landed a job as a brewer's apprentice at Angelic Brewing Company in Wisconsin. A few years later he ventured out on his own, and in 2004 opened Sixpoint Craft Ales in Red Hook, Brooklyn, where the brewery and local community have since developed a strong bond. Despite its growing success (their production essentially following Moore's Law and doubling every year), Shane remains true to Sixpoint's grassroots ethos and his own homebrewing roots by continuing to experiment and create innovative beers that are at the forefront of the revolution in craft beers going on today. For more info, see this article from the NY Times about the recent explosion of breweries in Brooklyn. www.nytimes.com Also, this interview with Shane from Timeout NY about Sixpoint's new line of cans. newyork.timeout.com Hosted by Bryan Blatt Directed by Lee Stimmel From: AtGoogleTalks Views: 13218 142 ratings Time: 01:21:27 More in Science & Technology

"Analyzing Social Media Networks with NodeXL" When information visualization is smoothly integrated with statistical techniques users can make important discoveries and bold decisions. Our 20-year history in coupling direct manipulation principles with dynamic queries, coordinated multiple windows, tree-maps, time-box selectors, and other innovations has produced academic and commercial success stories such as www.Spotfire.com and www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/treemap-history. Now we've turned to the difficult problem of network analysis and visualization. The free, open-source NodeXL (www.codeplex.com/nodexl) demonstrates novel approaches to importing network data (email, website, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, etc.), applying metrics, performing clustering, and then giving rich controls over network layouts to support exploration and presentation.
