(In-Stock) Praise for Core Python Programming "The long-awaited second edition of Wesley Chun's Core Python Programming proves to be well worth the wait—its deep and broad coverage and useful exercises will help readers learn and practice good Python." —Alex Martelli, author of Python in a Nutshell and editor of Python Cookbook "There has been lot of good buzz around Wesley Chun's Core Python Programming. It turns out that all the buzz is well earned. I think this is the best book currently available for learning Python. I would recommend Chun's book over Learning Python (O'Reilly), Programming Python (O'Reilly), or The Quick Python Book (Manning)." —David Mertz, Ph.D., IBM DeveloperWorks® "I have been doing a lot of research [on] Python for the past year and have seen a number of positive reviews of your book. The sentiment expressed confirms the opinion that Core Python Programming is now considered the standard introductory text." —Richard Ozaki, Lockheed Martin "Finally, a book good enough to be both a textbook and a reference on the Python language now exists." —Michael Baxter, Linux Journal "Very well written. It is the clearest, friendliest book I have come across yet for explaining Python, and putting it in a wider context. It does not presume a large amount of other experience. It does go into some important Python topics carefully and in depth. Unlike too many beginner books, it never condescends or tortures the reader with childish hide-and-seek prose games. [It] sticks to gaining a solid grasp of Python syntax and structure." —http://python.org bookstore Web site "[If ] I could only own one Python book, it would be Core Python Programming by Wesley Chun. This book manages to cover more topics in more depth than Learning Python but includes it all in one book that also more than adequately covers the core language. [If] you are in the market for just one book about Python, I recommend this book. You will enjoy reading it, including its wry programmer's wit. More importantly, you will learn Python. Even more importantly, you will find it invaluable in helping you in your day-to-day Python programming life. Well done, Mr. Chun!" —Ron Stephens, Python Learning Foundation "I think the best language for beginners is Python, without a doubt. My favorite book is Core Python Programming." —s003apr, MP3Car.com Forums "Personally, I really like Python. It's simple to learn, completely intuitive, amazingly flexible, and pretty darned fast. Python has only just started to claim mindshare in the Windows world, but look for it to start gaining lots of support as people discover it. To learn Python, I'd start with Core Python Programming by Wesley Chun." —Bill Boswell, MCSE, Microsoft Certified Professional Magazine Online "If you learn well from books, I suggest Core Python Programming. It is by far the best I've found. I'm a Python newbie as well and in three months time I've been able to implement Python in projects at work (automating MSOffice, SQL DB stuff, etc.)." —ptonman, Dev Shed Forums "Python is simply a beautiful language.

After all, it usually gets him what he wants—except for Natasha Bellingham. The long-time family friend may be ten years older than he, but so what? He’s plenty old enough to know they belong together. Now all he has to do is convince her. Over the past few years Natasha’s love life has degenerated into a series of bad clichés. Her biological clock is ticking—loudly. As a proven architect with her own house-design company, she’s financially ready for a baby. Who says she needs a permanent man in her life for that? She just needs a “donation”. When Max discovers Natasha’s future plans include artificial insemination, he’s outraged. She wants to get pregnant? No problem. He’s more than willing to volunteer—no turkey basters involved. But there’s one non-negotiable clause: He wants forever. And he intends to do everything in his power—fair and unfair—to make it happen. Warning: This title contains one younger man ready, aimed and hell bent on giving one woman everything she wants. Includes interludes against the wall, in a Jacuzzi, on a car hood and even—shockingly enough—on a bed or two. Oh, and about that porch swing? Yup… | | SEE IT |

Fodor defends and extends the groundbreaking idea that thinking is couched in a symbolic system realized in the brain. This idea is central to the representational theory of mind which Fodor has established as a key reference point in modern philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science. The foundation stone of our present cognitive science is Turing's suggestion that cognitive processes are not associations but computations; and computation requires a language of thought. So the latest on the Language of Thought hypothesis, from its progenitor, promises to be a landmark in the study of the mind. LOT 2 offers a more cogent presentation and a fuller explication of Fodor's distinctive account of the mind, with various intriguing new features. The central role of compositionality in the representational theory of mind is revea | | SEE IT |

How quickly can you prove that 54, 879, 654 + 52, 418, 793 = 107, 298, 447? How about instantly shouting out the square of 35? Best of all, you can do it without having to create a math problem – just yell the answer out! If math scares you, fear it no more. If math excites you, come along and learn even more. You will be entertained as you learn new ways to explore math. Prerequisite: Must be able to add and multiply single digits from one through nine. MATH 4 2-DAY IS A JOURNEY! It is a collective work from a course, titled Math-A-Nation, that is taught over six Saturdays to intellectually gifted children, grades 4 to 8. This popular course, which is the basis of the book, has been offered through the Super Saturday Program, here in Cincinnati for almost thirty years. This program, offered by PAGE – a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, serves the best and brightest young minds in the region, on a campus of the University of Cincinnati. Both students and their parents have grown to love the Math-A-Nation course and have helped add to and polish its content over the years. Parent and student feedback always mentions that these math topics and techniques are not available to them through traditional educational channels. Overall, this book was written to insure that my children, and yours, are equipped with these important math concepts for mental training designed to insure their preparation in the modern competitive world. Parents tell me that this “math thinking” helps their children acquire a mental edge. In turn, this mental edge, allows them to excel in their math and science studies, and also prepares them for advance problem solving in the real world. The methods discussed in this book can be used by anyone interested in developing their mental math skills. Also included is a lot of fun and knowledge about the history, people, and development of mathematics. Even the book title, “Math 4 2-Day, ” was developed to offer the reader a challenge in mathematics. (See Preface for additional information.) The book offers more than simple math tricks and tips. It gives insight into the world of mathematics like no other book. It offers in-depth coverage of subjects like Fibonacci, Palindrome Numbers, World of Primes, Enormous Numbers, and Möbius Objects. It even offers methods of doing math in ways that are often no taught in school. It demonstrates methods for rapid multiplication, avoiding careless math errors, tips for solving word and logic problems, using addition to solve subtraction, rapid methods for finding Least Common Denominator and Greatest Common Factor of fractions, and so much more. It even offers loads of calculator tricks and bits of fun with mathematics. It even has end of day topics - like how to create a money shirt from a $1.00 dollar bill or working with optical illusions. | | SEE IT |

(In-Stock) Moon People 2 This story is about the space Adventures of 1st Science Officer Captain David Braymer and his transition from the Lunar Base 1 base station to his new home the Powleens traded them called the Aurora, a spaceship that looks like a Moon also known as "Goddess of The Dawn" it is 10 kilometers in diameter and with light speed capability. It’s the size of a small city.It has everything a small city would have like two hospitals and restaurants and shopping malls all over the ship. Captain Braymer also has a romantic attachment to a young lady by the name of Lieutenant Heather Courtney who is an Officers Aid.They have a few out of the ordinary experiences that they do not forget any time soon. And our new friends the Powleens have advanced us centuries ahead of our time. They also traded us for five of their newest ships in their space fleet all with light speed capability with all of their weapons in tacked. They traded us for all kinds of their gadgetry´s and even some of their food. That’s what they do go all over the Galaxy looking for friends and ultimate knowledge and trade with everyone they can find.Commander Braymer also has a mission to do a genesis on Mars that turns out surprisingly good with a few added benefits. One of the benefits was discovering a lot of Martian people and animals in a Noah ark kind of setup that has been frozen for over 100, 000 years in life support chambers. They were all brought back to life again. There were many discoveries’ not to mention all of the futuristic weapons they find with aircraft all superior to anything at present by anyone. And nobody expected the Martians to have special mental powers like telekinetic and telekinesis and all sorts of mental telepathy powers like mind transference and the power to levitate in the air. Well everything was going pretty smooth until Galactic war breaks out all over the universe and the final Battle happens in our solar system. It was Earth with the Powleen people and also the Martians against the snake looking people called the Arcons and their friends the Thracians who resemble dog like people with sharp claws. There were crashed ships all over our planets and their moons in our solar system. It was the Battle of all Battles. It decided the control of our Galaxy. If you think all of this sounds good wait till you read the book, its action packed from start to finish. I know you will enjoy Moon People Trilogy. It’s some of my best work. And don’t worry some day you just might see something that resembles “Moon People 3”coming to your local Book store near you. Thank you and God Bless. Dale M.Courtney Author | | SEE IT |
