Dwight Eisenhower $19.95 He was a boy from Abilene who grew up to command the largest fighting force ever assembled. He rode his military accomplishments all the way to the White House. Dwight D. Eisenhower ran for President with one of the most direct and effective messages in the history of politics: ""I Like Ike."" This simple slogan belies the complexity of the man behind it: people did like Ike, but they didn't know him nearly as well as they thought they did. Going beyond the broad strokes that have long defined his public image, BIOGRAPHY probes the complexities of Eisenhower's personality, details his extraordinary military career and reflects on his time as President, where he was sometimes dismissed as a do nothing but in fact pushed forcefully and effectively for major change in the country. Recordings capture Eisenhower's own words, and the recollections of dozens of friends, colleagues, family members and political insiders add rich dimension to this multi faceted portrait.

Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL, 2nd Edition $34.95 By Hugh E. Williams, David Lane 2nd Edition May 2004 ISBN: 0 596 00543 1 816 pages There are many reasons for serving up dynamic content from a web site:to offer an online shopping site, create customized information pages for users, or just manage a large volume of content through a database. Anyone with a modest knowledge of HTML and web site management can learn to create dynamic content through the PHP programming language and the MySQL database. This book gives you the background and tools to do the job safely and reliably. Web Database Applications with PHP and MySQL, Second Edition thoroughly reflects the needs of real world applications. It goes into detail on such practical issues as validating input (do you know what a proper credit card number looks like?), logging in users, and using templates to give your dynamic web pages a standard look. But this book goes even further. It shows how JavaScript and PHP can be used in tandem to make a user's experience faster and more pleasant. It shows the correct way to handle errors in user input so that a site looks professional. It introduces the vast collection of powerful tools available in the PEAR repository and shows how to use some of the most popular tools. Even while it serves as an introduction to new programmers, the book does not omit critical tasks that web sites require. For instance, every site that allows updates must handle the possibility of multiple users accessing data at the same time. This book explains how to solve the problem in detail with locking. Through a sophisticated sample application Hugh and Dave's Wine Store all the important techniques of dynamic content are introduced. Good design is emphasized, such as dividing logic from presentation. The book introduces PHP 5 and MySQL 4.1 features, while providing techniques that can be used on older versions of the software that are still in widespread use. This new edition has been redesigned around the rich offerings of PEAR. Several of these, including the Template package and the database independent query API, are fully integrated into examples and thorougly described in the text.

Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition $29.95 With more than 700,000 copies sold to date, Java in a Nutshell from O'Reilly is clearly the favorite resource amongst the legion of developers and programmers using Java technology. And now, with the release of the 5.0 version of Java, O'Reilly has given the book that defined the "in a Nutshell" category another impressive tune up. In this latest revision, readers will find Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition does more than just cover the extensive changes implicit in 5.0, the newest version of Java. It's undergone a complete makeover in scope, size, and type of coverage in order to more closely meet the needs to the modern Java programmer. To wit, Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition now places less emphasis on coming to Java from C and C++, and adds more discussion on tools and frameworks. It also offers new code examples to illustrate the working of APIs, and, of course, extensive coverage of Java 5.0. But faithful readers take comfort: it still hasn't lost any of its core elements that made it such a classic to begin with. This handy reference gets right to the heart of the program with an accelerated introduction to the Java programming language and its key APIs ideal for developers wishing to start writing code right away. And, as was the case in previous editions, Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition is once again chock full of poignant tips, techniques, examples, and practical advice. For as long as Java has existed, Java in a Nutshell has helped developers maximize the capabilities of the program's newest versions. And this latest edition is no different.
