Java Programming 24-Hour Trainer (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)

Wrox Press, 2011

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to notice the recent serious decline in the publishing of computer books, to say nothing of computer magazines. I enjoy reading books about software and visit the nearby Barnes and Noble at least twice a month. During the last three years the number of bookcases dedicated to computer books...

Logic of Analog and Digital Machines

Nova Press, 2010

Computer Science is a very young discipline compared to most others. Alan Turing published the seminal paper of the field in 1936. Around the same time, the militaries in Germany, UK, and US commissioned the first digital electronic computer projects. One of these, the Colossus at Bletchley Park in the UK, was used to break the...

Software Abstractions: Logic, Language, and Analysis

MIT Press, 2012

As a programmer working for Logica UK in London in the mid-1980’s, I became a passionate advocate of formal methods. Extrapolating from small successes with VDM and JSP, I was sure that widespread use of formal methods would bring an end to the software crisis.

One approach especially intrigued me. John Guttag and Jim...

AutoCAD 2011 Tutor for Engineering Graphics

Autodesk Press, 2010

Engineering graphics is the process of defining an object graphically before it is constructed and used by consumers. Previously, this process for producing a drawing involved the use of drawing aids such as pencils, ink pens, triangles, T-squares, and so forth to place an idea on paper before making changes and producing blue-line...

Ferrets For Dummies

For Dummies, 2007

When I graduated from veterinary school and started my career in 1976 I didn’t know anyone who kept a ferret for a pet much less had I ever seen one other than in pictures. My only experience with them was in an undergraduate ethology class where I watched a 30-minute video of the behavior of the European polecat, and I...

Implementing Responsive Design: Building sites for an anywhere, everywhere web (Voices That Matter)

New Riders Publishing, 2012

A few years back, photography legend Chase Jarvis smartly observed that “the best camera is the one that’s with you.” It was a mildly shocking assertion at the time, but it rings true: the perfect shot is rarely planned. Rather, it sneaks up on you.

Perhaps the light is perfectly...

ATDD by Example: A Practical Guide to Acceptance Test-Driven Development

Addison Wesley, 2012

There is a curious symmetry to the way this book presents Acceptance Test- Driven Development and the way software is developed with ATDD. Just as there is an art to picking the specific examples of program behavior that will elicit the correct general behavior for the system, there is an art to picking specific examples of a...

Less Than Zero: The Case for a Falling Price Level in a Growing Economy (Hobart Papers)

Coronet Books Inc, 1997

One of main features of the 'counter-revolution' in economics which has resulted in the revival of classical liberal ideas has been a change in views about government's ability to control the economy.

Liars and Outliers: Enabling the Trust that Society Needs to Thrive

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

Just today, a stranger came to my door claiming he was here to unclog a bathroom drain. I let him into my house without verifying his identity, and not only did he repair the drain, he also took off his shoes so he wouldn’t track mud on my floors. When he was done, I gave him a piece of paper that asked my bank to give him some money....
