Solving ODEs with MATLAB By L. F. Shampine, I. Gladwell, S. Thompson
Publisher: Cambridge University Press 2003 | 272 Pages | ISBN: 0521824044 | PDF | 1 MB



This book is a text for a one-semester course for upper-level undergraduates and beginning graduate students in engineering, science, and mathematics. Prerequisites are a first course in the theory of ODEs and a survey course in numerical analysis, in addition to specific programming experience, preferably in MATLAB, and knowledge of elementary matrix theory. Professionals will also find that this useful concise reference contains reviews of technical issues and realistic and detailed examples. The programs for the examples are supplied on the accompanying web site and can serve as templates for solving other problems. Each chapter begins with a discussion of the "facts of life" for the problem, mainly by means of examples. Numerical methods for the problem are then developed, but only those methods most widely used. The treatment of each method is brief and technical issues are minimized, but all the issues important in practice and for understaning the codes are discussed. The last part of each chapter is a tutorial that shows how to solve problems by means of small, but realistic, examples.

Optics: learning by computing with examples using MathCAD By Karl Dieter Moeller
Publisher: Springer 2002 | 464 Pages | ISBN: 0387953604 | PDF | 11 MB



This book is intended for a one semester course in optics for juniors and seniors in science and engineering; it uses Mathcad(R) scripts to provide a simulated laboratory where students can learn by exploration and discovery instead of passive absorption.
The text covers all the standard topics of a traditional optics course, including: geometrical optics and aberration, interference and diffraction, coherence, Maxwell's equations, wave guides and propagating modes, blackbody radiation, atomic emission and lasers, optical properties of materials, Fourier transforms and FT spectroscopy, image formation, and holography. It contains step by step derivations of all basic formulas in geometrical, wave and Fourier optics.
The basic text is supplemented by over 170 Mathcad files, each suggesting programs to solve a particular problem, and each linked to a topic in or application of optics. The computer files are dynamic, allowing the reader to see instantly the effects of changing parameters in the equations. Students are thus encouraged to ask "what...if" questions to asses the physical implications of the formulas.
The book is written for the study of particular projects but can easily be adapted to a variation of related studies. The three-fold arrangement of text, applications, and files makes the book suitable for "self-learning" by by scientists or engineers who would like to refresh their knowledge of optics.

Examining the consequences of Einstein's relativity theory, an original work explores the mystery of time and considers black holes, time warps, time travel, the existence of God, nature of the universe, and humankind's place in the cosmos. 35,000 first printing. Tour.


Summary: About Time someone wrote this book!
Rating: 5

Davies is an excellent author! This is my first read of one of his books and I found it easy to follow and very exciting to read. In fact I have purchased two more of his books and both seem to be of the same high quality of scholarship and easy style. Some of the concepts are tough but only because of our own individual histories and backgrounds. The physics are great, the math, held to a minimum but with enough insight into the math to make sense.

Thank you to the author, who is prolific by the way, and I will be buying even more of your books!

Summary: About Time
Rating: 4

I liked this book. When I read the first pages, I thought that I had chosen the wrong book, but afterwards everything changed. Here you can find a light and clear review of many aspects of time.

It is not perfect, and some times it is not clear what the author means with "time reversal", etc, even if he tries to explain it several times. The theory about the proximity of Doomsday is also quite weak.

In spite of this, you find a clear view of time as it is currently known by science. I have not found many new ideas, but in general they are well structured and consolidates what you have read separately in many other books. Apart from that, it has good rhythm, and it is easy to read and understand.



Summary: Entertaining, informative and very well written.
Rating: 5

This, as the title states, is a book about time; all the possible aspects of time, from that of the Greek philosophers, through Newton's idea of time, to Einstein's relativistic view of time and beyond. The book is a blend of philosophy, physics and physiology, but heaviest on the physics aspects of time. Everyone thinks that they know what time is, but on closer examination it is not so clear what time actually is. Is it an illusion or just the interval between events? Does it flow, or is it only perceived to do so? Does time always run forward, or can it run backwards? What is imaginary time, or quantum time? Did time start at the instant of the big bang? What does time look like in a black hole? How does the brain perceive time?

To the ancient Greeks time was a mystery, to Newton time was absolute and to Einstein it is relative to the observer. All these are subjects (and much more) that are discussed in the book; discussed in a very literate and highly entertaining manner. This is not, however, a physics text, although much of it is concerned with the physics of time. There are no equations and only the results of relativity theory, quantum mechanics and cosmology are discussed, not the details. Nonetheless, it brings time to life (to use the sort of analogy that is discussed in the book) in a way that the details of a physics text cannot. I highly recommend this book to students and to anyone who wants their perception of the most basic aspect of consciousness challenged. Read this book and you will never perceive time in quite the same way again.

Construction Contract Claims

Construction Contract Claims

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

R.W. Thomas, "Construction Contract Claims"
Palgrave Macmillan | 2001 | ISBN: 0333930800 | 336 pages | PDF | 7 MB

Claims in construction contracts are on the increase. As more emphasis is put on time and money, many contracts get off to a bad start because of lack of pre-planning or just bad advice on the method of procurement of form of contract to be used. Both the initiator and recipient of claims are often partially responsible for claim situations escalating into expensive disputes. Many disputes can be avoided or settled amicably if the parties to them recognise the fundamental causes of claims and how they should be addressed. This book confronts all of the difficult problems that arise in claims situations in the UK and internationally. Extensive reference to UK and international case law and a systematic approach to various types of claims assisted by helpful and explanatory diagrams makes this book second to none as a 'trouble shooting' guide to presentation of, response to, and negotiation and settlement of claims. In addition to the general principles of law and contract in the UK and internationally and how they relate to construction claims, there are a number of examples which are specific to a wide range of UK, international and foreign forms of contract. The latest FIDIC international forms of contract and their problems are featured and some important pitfalls and comparisons with the Engineering and Construction Contract (NEC) add a new dimension to this edition. The author's extensive experience of the legal and practical aspects of construction law and claims in over 30 countries with diverse laws and legal codes is evident in this book. It is essential reading for those wishing to fully understand this important field so that they are better prepared to deal with the problems which arise with confidence and success. A graduate of the University of Aston, Reg Thomas has extensive experience in many aspects of construction in the UK and internationally. He has held senior posts in lecturing in Jamaica and Hong Kong. He is a former contracts director of the Shui On Group of Companies in Hong Kong. Reg joined James R. Knowles in 1986, where, after a number of years in overseas postings he pioneered the international growth of the company. He organised, supervised and executed a number of complex international construction claims in all sectors of building, shipbuilding and engineering and he earned and international reputation in construction claims and as a lecturer on diverse subjects. Since retiring from James R. Knowles at the end of 1998, Reg has continued to provide consultancy services to the Group and remains a director of a number of the Group's overseas companies.




Summary: An Essential book for any construction man
Rating: 5

Before read this book I was in badly need to know how should I start build up my claim .However I have 26 years experience in construction I found a lot of difficulties to organize my claim.
Now after I read this book it looks like a peace of cake to build any type of claim in construction because this book simply seems as guideline for me.

The Gale Encyclopedia of Alternative Medicine - 4 Volume set by Jacqueline L. Longe (Repost)
Publisher: Gacl; 2 edition (December 2004) | ISBN: 0787674249 | Pages: 2000 | PDF | 104 MB

The fact that some alternative health treatments are now covered by health insurance is proof that they have entered the mainstream. The second edition of this set is "a one-stop source for alternative medical information" containing more than 800 articles covering 150 therapies, 275 diseases and conditions, and 300 herbs and other remedies. Alternative health practitioners, educators, pharmacists, and medical writers wrote the alphabetical, signed articles. All entries have resource lists of books, articles, and organizations, and many are illustrated with black-and-white photographs. Sidebars with biographies of leaders in the field, such as Edward Bach, Deepak Chopra, and David Palmer, are a new feature. A photo gallery of color plates of medicinal plants appears in each volume. Many entries have sidebars containing glossaries of key terms.

The entries for therapies (Acupuncture, Rolfing) discuss origins, benefits, precautions, side effects, and research and general acceptance. Those covering herbs and other remedies (Gotu kola, Saw palmetto) describe general use, preparations, precautions, side effects, and interactions. Information about diseases and conditions covers definitions, descriptions, causes and symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, allopathic treatment, expected results, and prevention. Cross-references make locating relevant material easy. The articles are written in lay language, so they are easy to read and understand.

The second edition has a glossary and an expanded organization list that includes mainstream organizations such as the American Medical Association. It also has information about the efficacy of the various treatments based on research conducted at institutions such as the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health. Controversial topics, such as the link between childhood vaccines and autism, are covered, but the article on vaccines does not include a citation for the information on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Web site citing studies that show no evidence for this.

Recorded Books | English | Duration approx 10:24 hours | FhG MPEG 1 Layer III 48 Kbps | CBR | 44100Hz, 16-bit | Mono | Audio Book | 207 Mb


I found this during an Internet trawl, it purports to be an unabridged reading of The Google story, as far as I can make out it is so.

The book

Social phenomena happen, and the historians follow. So it goes with Google, the latest star shooting through the universe of trend-setting businesses. This company has even entered our popular lexicon: as many note, "Google" has moved beyond noun to verb, becoming an action which most tech-savvy citizens at the turn of the twenty-first century recognize and in fact do, on a daily basis. It's this wide societal impact that fascinated authors David Vise and Mark Malseed, who came to the book with well-established reputations in investigative reporting. Vise authored the bestselling The Bureau and the Mole, and Malseed contributed significantly to two Bob Woodward books, Bush at War and Plan of Attack. The kind of voluminous research and behind-the-scenes insight in which both writers specialize, and on which their earlier books rested, comes through in The Google Story.
The strength of the book comes from its command of many small details, and its focus on the human side of the Google story, as opposed to the merely academic one. Some may prefer a dryer, more analytic approach to Google's impact on the Internet, like The Search or books that tilt more heavily towards bits and bytes on the spectrum between technology and business, like The Singularity is Near. Those wanting to understand the motivations and personal growth of founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin and CEO Eric Schmidt, however, will enjoy this book. Vise and Malseed interviewed over 150 people, including numerous Google employees, Wall Street analysts, Stanford professors, venture capitalists, even Larry Page's Cub Scout leader, and their comprehensiveness shows.

As the narrative unfolds, readers learn how Google grew out of the intellectually fertile and not particularly directed friendship between Page and Brin; how the founders attempted to peddle early versions of their search technology to different Silicon Valley firms for $1 million; how Larry and Sergey celebrated their first investor's check with breakfast at Burger King; how the pair initially housed their company in a Palo Alto office, then eventually moved to a futuristic campus dubbed the "Googleplex"; how the company found its financial footing through keyword-targeted Web ads; how various products like Google News, Froogle, and others were cooked up by an inventive staff; how Brin and Page proved their mettle as tough businessmen through negotiations with AOL Europe and their controversial IPO process, among other instances; and how the company's vision for itself continues to grow, such as geographic expansion to China and cooperation with Craig Venter on the Human Genome Project.

Like the company it profiles, The Google Story is a bit of a wild ride, and fun, too. Its first appendix lists 23 "tips" which readers can use to get more utility out of Google. The second contains the intelligence test which Google Research offers to prospective job applicants, and shows the sometimes zany methods of this most unusual business. Through it all, Vise and Malseed synthesize a variety of fascinating anecdotes and speculation about Google, and readers seeking a first draft of the history of the company will enjoy an easy read.


The authors

David A. Vise, a journalist and author for over 20 years, is now a Senior Advisor to New Mountain Capital, a New York-based investment firm, and New Mountain Vantage, its public equity fund. He won a Pulitzer Prize in 1990 while working as a business reporter for the Washington Post. He has authored or co-authored four books, including The Bureau and the Mole (2002) (about FBI agent and convicted spy Robert Hanssen) and The Google Story (2006), a national bestseller published in more than two dozen languages. He wrote an updated edition published in September 2008. Vise received an MBA from Penn's Wharton School of Business. The school named him to a list of 125 influential alumni on its 125th anniversary and honored him with The Joseph Wharton Award for career achievement and community service. He holds an honorary Doctorate of Literary Letters from Cumberland University and studied at the London School of Economics

Mark Malseed, formerly the researcher for Bob Woodward on two consecutive New York Times nonfiction bestsellers, is an investigative journalist and information industry consultant. Following the release of The Google Story, his first book, Malseed has consulted to ChaCha, the leading mobile answers service, on their "Search University" training and education program. He also shares his investigative insights with businesses, organizations and schools in "Google Sleuthing" seminars


The reader

Stephen Hoye is new to the game of audio-books but has been on our narrator radar from the start. After a chance encounter three years ago with producer John Runette—in an elevator in Pasadena, CA—Steve auditioned for Runette, and the resulting audio, RICH DAD, POOR DAD went straight to an Audie Award in 2001. Born and bred in New England, Steve pursued theater in Britain for nearly 20 years and is a graduate of London’s Guildhall and a veteran of London’s West End. After moving to California in the 1990s, Steve took up a new career fundraising for nonprofits and became a commuter and consumer of audiobooks. With his audition for Runette, Steve was pulled back into the performance world and was immediately smitten by the unique demands and satisfactions of audiobook narration. “You get a really good journey in almost every book you do,” he says. Since then Steve’s readings—such as SKINNY DIP by Carl Hiaasen, THE KILLER ANGELS by Michael Shaara, THE GREAT PSYCHEDELIC ARMADILLO PICNIC by Kinky Friedman, and Lance Armstrong’s EVERY SECOND COUNTS—illustrate how he lives in the books he’s recording. He jumps into the sassy-smart dialogue of Hiaasen, the literary gravitas of Shaara’s Gettysburg epic, and the full-throttle energy of Armstrong’s memoir with equal skill. Steve has already managed to record a wide variety of subjects and authors. We can’t call this beginner’s luck, as Steve’s theater experience enabled him to quickly hone essential narrator skills. The luck is with his listeners.

Physics of Ferroelectrics: A Modern Perspective (Topics in Applied Physics)
Publisher: Springer | ISBN: 3540345906 | edition 2007 | PDF | 398 pages | 10,4 mb

During the past two decades, revolutionary breakthroughs have occurred in the understanding of ferroelectric materials, both from the perspective of theory and experiment. First principles approaches, including the Berry phase formulation of ferroelectricity, now allow accurate, quantitative predictions of material properties, and single crystalline thin films are now available for fundamental studies of these materials. In addition, the need for high dielectric constant insulators and nonvolatile memories in semiconductor applications has motivated a renaissance in the investigation of these materials. This book addresses the paradigmatic shifts in understanding brought about by these breakthroughs, including the consideration of novel fabrication methods and nanoscale applications of these materials, and new theoretical methods such as the effective Hamiltonian approach and density functional theory.

The Adobe Photoshop CS4 Layers Book: Harnessing Photoshop's most powerful tool

I am somewhat familiar with Photoshop and its capabilities, but this book really opened my eyes to what can be done with layers and has really changed my work flow when editing images. There is more information here about layers than I thought was possible, and some of the techniques described are pretty advanced, but for now this has become my goto book on Photoshop.

Organic Chemistry (6th Edition) ebook by Leroy "Skip" G Wade


Organic Chemistry (6th Edition)


Organic Chemistry (6th Edition)
By Leroy "Skip" G Wade
Prentice Hall | 6th Edition | February 1, 2005 | ISBN: 9780131478718 / 0131478710
English | 1328 pages | HQ PDF | 169 MB | RS

For two-semester courses in Organic Chemistry taken primarily by science and pre-health majors. Wade, organized around functional groups, is known for his student-oriented approach--he incorporates problem solving help (features in green), orientation features (in blue), and complete discussions of mechanisms (mechanism boxes and key mechanism spreads). As always, he explains concepts without taking the unnecessary short cuts that often lead to misconceptions. Additionally, he integrates up-to-date aspects of spectroscopy, bioorganic chemistry (often through accessible margin notes), and many applications to polymer chemistry throughout. The PH online organic homework system, ACE Organic, provides instructors and students a tool that is created specifically to mimic how students do organic homework-by drawing organic structures. This program provides detailed feedback for incorrect answers to enhance the learning process.
