101 Things to Do in a Shed $0.01 Not so long ago, that old shed behind the house was where our fathers and grandfathers found things to do. Whether they were busy building a birdhouse or staining a door, they puttered for hours to the background sounds of baseball on the transistor. The numbing allure of Game Boys and cable television has changed all that, but 101 Things to Do in a Shed is Robert Beattie’s irresistible enticement to get fathers and sons off the couch to bond once again with hammer and nails in that largely forgotten backyard sanctuary. Nostalgically designed with a newsprint interior, this richly illustrated how-to book allows novices and veterans alike to construct everything from a kite to a kaleidoscope, a worm hotel to a woodturning lathe. Through clear illustrations and detailed instructions, the book describes how to build each project, also providing information on hand tool techniques and a glossary of technical terms. Chock-full of fun ideas for father-and-son activities, 101 Things to Do in a Shed may appeal to Dad so much he wants to keep it to himself! |

ASP.Net Kick Start $34.99 Visual Studio .NEt is the premier development environment for creating .NET applications. The environment includes specialized tools for working with databases, XML files, and XML Web services. Building applications with Visual Studio .NET is a very different experience than building ASP.NET applications with a standard text editor. Visual Studio .NET performs a lot of invisible work in the background, and the environment makes a number of assumptions about the best way to build applications. It is difficult for even an experienced ASP.NET developer to use Visual Studio .NET effectively without any guidance. This book helps readers understand and begin using this complicated environment. |

An Empty House $14.92 A story of contemporary Chile by one of its most prominent novelists, An Empty House depicts the dissolution of an upper-middle-class family against a chilling background of exile, return, and discovery. The stark and moving narrative suggests the enormity of the horrors perpetrated in Chile over the last decades, horrors that resonate through the culture to this day. Cecilia and Manuel accept her father’s gift of a house, in hope of repairing their unraveling marriage along with the badly scarred building. Instead, the couple’s efforts expose the horrifying truth about the building–and reveal the subtle strands of complicity, responsibility, and indifference that bind them to each other, their country, and its dark past.With its deftly drawn characters, play of ideas, and vivid dialogue, An Empty House gives English-speaking readers a memorable portrait of Chile today: honest, brutally realistic, but with a redemptive touch of lyricism and hope. |

An Introduction to Algebraic Geometry and Algebraic Groups $104.49 An accessible text introducing algebraic geometry and algebraic groups at advanced undergraduate and early graduate level, this book develops the language of algebraic geometry from scratch and uses it to set up the theory of affine algebraic geometries from first principles. Building on the background material from algebraic geometry and algebraic groups, the text provides an introduction to more advanced and specialised material. An example is the representation theory of finite groups and Lie type. The text covers the conjugacy of borel subgroups and maximal tori, the theory of algebraic groups with a BN-pair, a thorough treatment of Frobenius maps on affine varieties and algebraic groups, zeta functions, and Lefschetz numbers for varieties over finite fields. Experts in the field will enjoy some of the new proofs. The text uses algebraic groups as the main examples, including worked out examples, instructuve exercises, as well as bibliographical and historical remarks. |

Analog Design for Cmos Vlsi Systems $275 Analog Design for CMOS VLSI Systems is a comprehensive text that offers a detailed study of the background principles and the analog design techniques for CMOS-VLSI implementation. The book covers the physical operation and the modelling of MOS transistors. Discusses the key features of integrated passive components and studies basic building blocks and voltage and current references before considering in great details the design of op-amps and comparators. The book is primarily intended for use as a graduate-level textbook and for practising engineers. It is expected that the reader should be familiar with the concepts taught in basic introductory courses in analog circuits. Relying on that proper background knowledge the book presents the material on an intuitive basis with a minimum use of mathematical quantitative analysis. Therefore, the insight induced by the book will favour that kind of knowledge gathering required for the design of high-performance analog circuits. The book favours this important process with a number of inserts providing hints or advises on key features of the topic studied. An interesting peculiarity of the book is the use of numbers. The equations describing the circuit operation are guidelines for the designer. It is important to assess performances in a quantitative way. To achieve this target the book provides a number of examples on computer simulations using Spice. Moreover, in order to acquire the feeling of the technological progress, three different hypothetical technologies are addressed and used. Detailed examples and the many problems make Analog Design for CMOS VLSI Systems a comprehensive textbook for a graduate-level course on analog circuitdesign. Moreover, the book will efficiently serve the practical needs of a wide range of circuit design and system design engineers. |
