A Long Walk to Freedom

A Long Walk to Freedom
Abacus | Pages: 784 |1995-10-12 | ISBN: 0349106533 | 2 MB

INTRO: This is the first book of this size that I have read about S. Africa. Having many relatives from S. Africa , I've heard the white side of the story about post-apartheid atrocities and unfairness, but this is the first history I've read of the history before 1994. This book really is fascinating in seeing the black perspective of the problem as well as chronologically laying out the evolution of the struggle.

BODY: An important thing to keep in mind is that this book is written by Nelson Mandela himself who is not a partial bystander. Many times in fact, the book reads like a training manual for aspiring revolutionaries. While the history of the book is not in question, you need to understand that he paints them in a very specific light. At the end of the book, you hear nothing about any killings on behalf of the ANC only about the killings which were done to them. Another example of the political agenda of this book is near the beginning when Nelson Mandela makes the statement that the tribal politics that existed before the white man was "democracy in it's purest form".

CONCLUSION: You should enjoy this book and admire Nelson Mandela for his lifetime of sacrifice and devotion to racial equality. However, don't place all your eggs in one basket and realize that there is more to the story than that of the radical revolutionary Mandela's. This book has inspired me to look further into S. Africa's present and past history.

How Computers Work: Processor and Main Memory

 

Roger Young “How Computers Work: Processor and Main Memory"
1st Books Library | 2002-08-01 | ISBN: 1403325820 | 152 pages | PDF | 1,1 Mb

The book is as simple as possible and aimed at a non-technical audience with absolutely no knowledge of computers or electronics, but it is an electrical engineering text. A typical page consists of a circuit diagram (or program) and a paragraph or two of explanation. The book begins with a VERY simple circuit and continues to a very complex circuit (a computer) while explaining everything. Everything has been made as simple as possible while leaving nothing out. Eighty-four circuit diagrams and some timing diagrams and short programs make every point clear.
Computers are the most complex machines that have ever been created. This is the first book to make it possible for ordinary people to understand precisely how the processor, the main and most complex part of a computer, works. In fact, it completely explains the operation of a complete, though simple, computer.
Relays, which are explained, are used in the circuitry instead of transistors for simplicity, though transistors are mentioned.
Did you ever wonder what a bit, a latch, a word (of memory), a data bus, an address bus, a memory, a register, a processor, a timing diagram, a clock (of a processor), an instruction, or machine code is? Though most explanations of how computers work are a lot of analogies or require a background in electrical engineering, this book will tell you precisely what each of them is and how each of them works without requiring any previous knowledge of computers or electronics.

Description:

'Listen, I'm not a bad person. I'm a doctor. One of the reasons I wanted to become a doctor was because I thought it would be a good - as in Good rather than exciting or well-paid or glamorous - thing to do … Anyway, I'm a good person, a doctor, and I'm lying in a hotel bed with a man I don't really know very well called Stephen, and I've just asked my husband for a divorce.'

According to her own complex moral calculations, Katie Carr has earned her affair. She's a doctor, after all, and doctors are decent people, and on top of that her husband David is the self-styled Angriest Man in Holloway. When David suddenly becomes good, however - properly, maddeningly, give-away-all-his-money good - Katie's sums no longer add up, and she is forced to ask herself some very hard questions …

Nick Hornby's brilliant third novel offers a painfully funny account of modern marriage and parenthood, and asks that most difficult of questions: what does it mean to be good?

What The Critics Say

'Hilarious, sophisticated, compulsive'
Sunday Times

'Vintage Nick Hornby. Very funny and very clever, and packed with wit and brilliance'
Spectator

'Pins you in your armchair and won't let you go. Eating, drinking, bathing - all took second place while I was reading the book. How to be Good? How to be bloody marvellous, more like'
Mail on Sunday

'The writing is so funny, and the set-pieces so brilliant … This is Hornby's best book since Fever Pitch'
Lynne Truss, The Times

'A bitingly clever novel of ideas, on a subject almost nobody else has written about - how would a totally good person get on in the modern world?'
John Carey, Sunday Times

'I loved this book'
Julie Burchill, Mail on Sunday

Frances Barber is the voice of wife, mother, doctor and all-round good person, Katie Carr in the audiobook of How to be Good. Here she tells us about the experience. ~ Read more...

Asteroids, Meteorites and Comets (Solar System)

 
Asteroids, Meteorites and Comets (Solar System)
Facts on File | Pages: 192 | 2006-03-28 | ISBN: 081605195X | 8 MB

As the title indicates, the Elkins-Tanton monograph is an introductory text on asteroids, comets and meteorites. The text also includes discussions of moons, planetary impacts and space mission to investigate comets and asteroids. The seven chapters and three appendices are illuminated with detailed gray-scale graphics and diagrams as well as high-resolution black and white photos of moons, comets and other celestial bodies. These are augmented by eight pages of good quality color images in the center of the book. Scientific and astronomical facts and data are presented in clearly readable tabular format throughout the text. While some mathematical concepts and formulas are presented in context, this book is not a text on celestial mechanics. The text incorporates a number of valuable features including an extensive index, bibliography, glossary, a list of Internet resources and astronomical societies.
