› Find signed collectible books: 'The Com and Com+ Programming Primer'
Besides being one of the most readable and understandable guides to the Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) (and related technologies) ever written, Alan Gordon's The COM and COM+ Programming Primer also gives today's COM developer an up-to-the-minute guide to COM+, including excellent hands-on demonstrations of installing and deploying COM+ objects.
The best thing about this text has to be the author's extremely engaging writing style and clear explanations of thorny COM concepts, like interfaces, GUIDs, and other nuts-and-bolts issues that help make Microsoft's component standard tough-going for beginners. An experienced educator, the author makes use of clear examples and analogies--for instance, describing COM as a "software bus" where components can be shared across applications and projects. If you've been baffled by other books on COM, this book's easygoing presentation may do the trick. It also helps that the text traces each slippery term in the Microsoft COM marketing arsenal. It shows how labels like "OLE," "COM," and "ActiveX" have changed over the years.
After a comprehensive tour of the basics, The COM and COM+ Programming Primer turns toward distributed COM (DCOM) and then onto today's COM+. Several useful tutorials explain building COM objects using Visual C++, including using ATL wizards. When it comes to COM+, the text shows how built-in transactions, object pooling, and queued components can be used to create more scalable and reliable distributed applications. With plenty of screenshots detailing how to install and configure COM+ components, this book will let readers get going with COM+ in their own projects.
The COM and COM+ Programming Primer shows how basic COM has evolved into today's COM+ standard--not by getting rid of the basics, but by enhancing an already capable component standard with new middle-tier resources. This title provides an excellent introduction to basic COM for anyone new to this standard, and provides the latest on COM+--which will help more experienced readers take their skills to the next level. --Richard Dragan

Aimed at those with some previous Java experience, Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages covers all you need to know to create effective Web applications using server-side Java. Combining plenty of practical advice with detailed information on these APIs, this book provides both the necessary background on Web programming and guidance on using Java effectively to power your Web site.
Similar in spirit to the author's previous title, Core Web Programming, which covered the disparate tools and technologies for successful Web development centered on Java/CGI/JavaScript, this book covers all the APIs and standards you'll need to work with today's Java 2 standard. This means a solid tour of servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs) as well as related standards such as HTML forms and JDBC for database programming. The book takes a hands-on approach and includes tips for installing and configuring today's Java platforms (including Apache's free Tomcat servlet package).
For sample programs, this text shows off an e-commerce online travel Web application, as well as more theoretical (but still interesting) examples using large prime numbers. The author--a physicist and accomplished teacher--uses many of his skills in this lively and effective presentation.
The second half of the book explains JSPs (they make it easier to use servlets with embedded Java statements in HTML). A standout chapter here explains how to combine servlets with JSPs to create maintainable Web sites with plenty of dynamic content. Sections on database programming with JDBC are supplemented by a discussion of connection pooling (including a custom class for better performance).
With its tour of the essential APIs and design techniques, Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages delivers what every programmer needs to know to use Java effectively for the Internet. It's a great choice for anyone who wants to take advantage of the latest standards from Sun for serious Java Web development. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered: Overview of Java servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs), servlets vs. CGI and ASPs, survey of servlet products, installation and configuration hints, using packages with servlets, the servlet life cycle, initialization parameters, debugging tips, HTML form basics, submitting and processing form variables, HTTP request and response headers, standard CGI variables, HTTP status codes, using cookies, session tracking with servlets, e-commerce example, JSP scripting elements and attributes, including files, using applets, JavaBeans and tag libraries with JSPs, strategies for combining servlets and JSPs effectively, database and JDBC tutorial, and connecting pooling.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Understanding By Design'
*Winner of a 1999 EdPress Distinguished Achievement Award! *What is understanding and how does it differ from knowing? What do we want students to understand and be able to do? What enduring knowledge is worth understanding? How will we know that students truly understand and can apply knowledge in a meaningful way? How can we design our courses and units to emphasize understanding and "uncoverage" rather than "coverage"? Understanding by Design explores these questions and provides practical solutions for the teacher-designer. The book opens by analyzing the logic of backward design as an alternative to coverage and activity-oriented plans. Though backward from habit, this approach brings more focus and coherence to instruction. The text proposes a multifaceted approach, with the six "facets" of understanding. The facets combine with backward design to provide a powerful, practical framework for designing curriculum, assessment, and instruction. [via]

The first volume of Unix Network Programming, Networking APIs: Sockets and XTI covers just about everything you need to know to get your applications to talk to other computers on a network. In this second volume, W. Richard Stevens discusses what you need to know to get your applications to talk to other applications running on your computer. There's a big difference, and Stevens covers it well.
Stevens introduces the reader to the internal structures of Posix interprocess communication (IPC) and System V (SysV) IPC; pipes and first in, first outs (FIFOs); message queues; how to lock and unlock files and records; semaphores; shared memory; and remote procedure calls (RPCs). He explains the difference between the Posix and SysV implementations of semaphores, message queues, and shared memory. There are also plenty of notes and examples for the reader.
This book is invaluable for programmers because it explains all of those little "gotchas" that always seem to pop up. In addition, the explanations of the differences between Posix IPC and SysV IPC really help readers decide which version they'd like to use for their applications. --Doug Beaver [via]
