The Technical (T)error
The Technical (T)Error is a book that transports you to the new age of technology we live in. It delves into an era where everything is effortlessly available and easily accessible. The book highlights the comfort that progressive programming and day-to-day tech upgrades have brought into our lives. But, on the flip side, it also emphasizes how our excessive reliance on technology has rendered our minds less productive, our hearts devoid of emotions, and the human connections fading with each passing day.
Has this tech-savvy world taken a lot from us as humans? Or is it really the way, as technology suggests, for the betterment of society? Technology has always come with a question mark for me – has it been a curse or a boon to society? The interesting aspect is that, without actively seeking answers, we humans have consistently embraced technological advancements with open arms, often without pondering the potential repercussions.
The book makes us think – whether technology has been correctly used as a tool as it is meant to be, or whether we are posing threats to ourselves through over-dependency, ultimately leading to nothing but termination.
The addiction to technology, often under the guise of making life simple, reaches a point of no return, and, unfortunately, there is no rehab for it. And that’s not all; the additional threats associated with this rapidly evolving technology compel us to reflect on the wisdom of our esteemed predecessors who said, ‘Nothing comes easy, and there are no shortcuts to success.’ Isn’t this contrary to today’s lifestyle, largely due to these tech gizmos?
To think is our right, and we should know what and how much is right.Read more

Java Distributed Computing (Java Series)
Distributed computing and Java go together naturally. As the first language designed from the bottom up with networking in mind, Java makes it very easy for computers to cooperate. Even the simplest applet running in a browser is a distributed application, if you think about it. The client running the browser downloads and executes code that is delivered by some other system. But even this simple applet wouldn’t be possible without Java’s guarantees of portability and security: the applet can run on any platform, and can’t sabotage its host.Of course, when we think of distributed computing, we usually think of applications more complex than a client and server communicating with the same protocol. We usually think in terms of programs that make remote procedure calls, access remote databases, and collaborate with others to produce a single result. Java Distributed Computing discusses how to design and write such applications. It covers Java’s RMI (Remote Method Invocation) facility and CORBA, but it doesn’t stop there; it tells you how to design your own protocols to build message passing systems and discusses how to use Java’s security facilities, how to write multithreaded servers, and more. It pays special attention to distributed data systems, collaboration, and applications that have high bandwidth requirements.In the future, distributed computing can only become more important.Java Distributed Computing provides a broad introduction to the problems you’ll face and the solutions you’ll find as you write distributed computing applications.Topics covered in Java Distributed Computing:
- Introduction to Distributed Computing
- Networking Basics
- Distributed Objects (Overview of CORBA and RMI)
- Threads
- Security
- Message Passing Systems
- Distributed Data Systems (Databases)
- Bandwidth Limited Applications

A New History of Modern Computing (History of Computing)
How the computer became universal.Over the past fifty years, the computer has been transformed from a hulking scientific supertool and data processing workhorse, remote from the experiences of ordinary people, to a diverse family of devices that billions rely on to play games, shop, stream music and movies, communicate, and count their steps. In A New History of Modern Computing, Thomas Haigh and Paul Ceruzzi trace these changes. A comprehensive reimagining of Ceruzzi’s A History of Modern Computing, this new volume uses each chapter to recount one such transformation, describing how a particular community of users and producers remade the computer into something new.
Haigh and Ceruzzi ground their accounts of these computing revolutions in the longer and deeper history of computing technology. They begin with the story of the 1945 ENIAC computer, which introduced the vocabulary of “programs” and “programming,” and proceed through email, pocket calculators, personal computers, the World Wide Web, videogames, smart phones, and our current world of computers everywhere–in phones, cars, appliances, watches, and more. Finally, they consider the Tesla Model S as an object that simultaneously embodies many strands of computing.

Talking about fashion photography is imagining catwalks, photographers, red carpets… However, it is notable how this part of advertising photography has managed to become a genre in itself.
Like advertising photos, taking fashion photographs has certain characteristics and a specific objective: to attract the attention of the general public, stay in their memory and convince them to purchase the item that is being photographed (accessories, clothing, makeup. , etc.). To do this, professional photographers rely on a strategy that involves originality and total control of the staging.
These traits have managed to give great visibility to fashion photography in recent times. For this reason, in this BOOK, we teach you everything you need to know about it: its history, types, materials that you will need to take fashion photos and some tips and recommendations so that you can succeed in this artistic branch of photography.Read more

Introductory Course for Product Photography and Advertising: PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY FOR INSTAGRAM AND OTHER SOCIAL NETWORKS
Product photography plays a very important role in the world of advertising, advertising is understood as the way to publicize a product and generate the desire in the viewer to buy it.
When we talk about product photography we are referring to food, jewelry, drinks, clothing, accessories, medicines, etc. Therefore, the quality standards are the highest, because it is about presenting the best image of that product, but being faithful to its characteristics.
They can be photographs of food, bottles, cars, clothes, furniture, anything that can be sold or displayed. The perception of that object and, therefore, its acceptance in the market will depend on the quality of the photograph. You must keep in mind that the buyer cannot see the object in person: with the photo you must give him as much information as possible and persuade him to buy it. It is not about pressure, but about evoking and helping to sell the product.Read more

ISLAM THE MISUNDERSTOOD RELIGION
As I wrote this book over the years I did not entertain the hope that it would elicit
such a warm reception and appreciation, And when it went to the press over and over
again I thanked God and felt grateful to the readers who took so much interest in the
contents of this book.
I was, however, beginning to feel that in the future this book need not be republished,
For, in my view, we had better no way some thing positive about Islam itself in the
context of the various fields of life it embraces, and the positivity and the supervisory
character that its law enjoys with regard to practical life, as I have attempted in the books
appearing after the present one, instead of limiting our efforts to defending it against the
various doubts given currency to by its enemies in order to confuse and throw us on the
defensive.
But when I read the orientalist Mr. Wilfred Cantwell smith’s book “Islam in Modern
History”, and found that the author had in three places referred to this book of mine in
words so angry and disparaging that came very near to openly calling names. I decided
that the book that had roused the anger of a rancorous crusader to such an extent must
remain in circulation and be published over and over again.
All my thanks are due to Allah; His Grace alone brings succorRead more

Chinese Literature and Culture Volume 15: Xuemo: Imagination and Spirituality
We are very pleased to welcome Xuemo, another prize-winning author, into this new volume of Chinese Literature and Culture, which consists of excerpts of The Curse of Western Xia and excerpts of The Love Letters of Sharwardi in excellent English translation as well as two book reviews: Robert Tindol on the novel Desert Rites and Stephen Rake on the novel Desert Hunters. An author should have character and Xuemo is certainly the type we are looking for. Of all Chinese authors we have translated so far, Xuemo is unique in his spirituality and power of imagination.Unlike many writers who write in formulas that make predictable stories, Xuemo writes in a way that surprises the reader but meanwhile never loses the plot of a spiritual quest.In The Curse of Western Xia, five excerpts of which are published in the present volume, a robber father wants his son to be a robber while the Buddhist mother wants the son to be a monk, and as a result a series of strange stories take place. The novel also has another plot: a love story develops between a beautiful lady burglar and a Buddhist monk and is consummated in the religious practice of dual cultivation. In the words of Prof. Chen Xiaoming speaking to his students, “Xuemo gives a surreal experience by developing his literary narrative as a religious one which accesses and describes the world of evil as in a dream, a world as pale as the winter sun in the western deserts shining onto mud and soil, visible and weak, illusory and real at the same time.”Xuemo is best known for his novels but he is equally accomplished at short stories. Chen Sihe, Professor of Chinese, Fudan University, in “What Is the Best Freeze Frame of Beauty?” (Shanghai Literature) notes: “Xuemo is particularly good at creating epic volumes. When I read Desert Rites and Hunters’ Land, I feel as if I were actually transported to the vast, dry deserts…. On the other hand, his short stories are beautiful, animated and filled with sentiment…” He also notes, “While everything is dark and the reader wonders how the human evils and cruelties come into being and how humans have degenerated into beasts, Xuemo gives us a surprising miracle.”Xuemo’s works form a huge collection. The current volume can only serve as a teaser. If one wants to read more, they will have to find the Goldblatt translations and then wait for new translations.Read more
