|
An unusual and original work of fantasy from the acclaimed author of Tea with |
|
the Black Dragon. A contemporary man, John Thornburn (a meek, non-violent and |
|
unpredictable artist) and woman, Derval (his tough, confrontational, strong |
|
and warrior-like lover) time travel to ancient Ireland to avenge a Viking |
|
attack. Packed with fascinating details of historical time and place in Irish |
|
history and delicately balanced on the border between realism and fantasy, the |
|
story centers around one of the most famous and beautiful illuminated |
|
manuscripts in history, the legendary but entirely real Book of Kells. Celtic |
|
history blends with magical fantasy for a strange and immersive tale of |
|
adventure.</p> |

|
Version 5.0 of the Java 2 Standard Edition SDK is the most important upgrade |
|
since Java first appeared a decade ago. With Java 5.0, you'll not only find |
|
substantial changes in the platform, but to the language itself-something that |
|
developers of Java took five years to complete. The main goal of Java 5.0 is |
|
to make it easier for you to develop safe, powerful code, but none of these |
|
improvements makes Java any easier to learn, even if you've programmed with |
|
Java for years. And that means our bestselling hands-on tutorial takes on even |
|
greater significance."Learning Java" is the most widely sought introduction to |
|
the programming language that's changed the way we think about computing. Our |
|
updated third edition takes an objective, no-nonsense approach to the new |
|
features in Java 5.0, some of which are drastically different from the way |
|
things were done in any previous versions. The most essential change is the |
|
addition of "generics," a feature that allows developers to write, test, and |
|
deploy code once, and then reuse the code again and again for different data |
|
types. The beauty of generics is that more problems will be caught during |
|
development, and "Learning Java" will show you exactly how it's done.Java 5.0 |
|
also adds more than 1,000 new classes to the Java library. That means 1,000 |
|
new things you can do without having to program it in yourself. That's a huge |
|
change. With our book's practical examples, you'll come up to speed quickly on |
|
this and other new features such as loops and threads. The new edition also |
|
includes an introduction to Eclipse, the open source IDE that is growing in |
|
popularity. "Learning Java," 3rd Edition addresses all of the important uses |
|
of Java, such as web applications, servlets, and XML that are increasingly |
|
driving enterprise applications.</p> |

|
In the Beginning: Science Faces God in the Book of Genesis. The beginning of |
|
time. The origin of life. In our Western civilization, there are two |
|
influential accounts of beginnings. One is the biblical account, compiled more |
|
than two thousand years ago by Judean writers who based much of their thinking |
|
on the Babylonian astronomical lore of the day. The other is the account of |
|
modern science, which, in the last century, has slowly built up a coherent |
|
picture of how it all began. Both represent the best thinking of their times, |
|
and in this line-by-line annotation of the first eleven chapters of Genesis, |
|
Isaac Asimov carefully and evenhandedly compares the two accounts, pointing |
|
out where they are similar and where they are different.</p> |

Elena Martinez has street smarts, the ability for perfect recall, and a |
|
deadline: if she doesn’t find a job before she turns eighteen, she’ll be |
|
homeless. But then she gets an unexpected offer from Aether Corporation, the |
|
powerful Los Angeles tech giant. Along with four other recruits—Adam, Chris, |
|
Trent, and Zoe—Elena is being sent on a secret mission to bring back data from |
|
the future. All they have to do is get Aether the information they need, and |
|
the five of them will be set for life. It’s an offer Elena can’t refuse.</p> |
