Описание: When programmers list their favourite books, Jon Bentley's collection of programming pearls is commonly included among the classics. Just as natural pearls grow from grains of sand that irritate oysters, programming pearls have grown from real problems that have irritated real programmers. With origins beyond solid engineering, in the realm of insight and creativity, Bentley's pearls offer unique and clever solutions to those nagging problems. Illustrated by programs designed as much for fun as for instruction, the book is filled with lucid and witty descriptions of practical programming techniques and fundamental design principles. It is not at all surprising that Programming Pearls has been so highly valued by programmers at every level of experience.
What remains the same in this edition is Bentley's focus on the hard core of programming problems and his delivery of workable solutions to those problems. Whether you are new to Bentley's classic or are revisiting his work for some fresh insight, the book is sure to make your own list of favourites.

Описание:
'When the new century roared, she threw a custard pie in its face. When the cameras rolled, she became a star.' Melia Nord was a phenomenon of the silent movies.
As fast-paced as a police detective - and with whodunnit, colourful characters and enough drama to make a film precursor to L.A. Confidential - Celluloid Peach tells the tale of an ill-fated actress and her star-crossed lover working in the early days of American movies. A riveting fictional story of romance and tragedy, the novel tracks the true history of the dawn of Hollywood, how the film industry moved from small New York City studios to California. Steeped in vivid early 20th century details, crackling dialogue and non-stop action, Celluloid Peach is impossible to put down.
Protagonist Melia Nord is that ultimate shooting star. Her ascent will be as swift as her fall - she can light up the sky and dazzle a continent, but she's fated to a hard landing. Beautiful, wide-eyed, young and innocent, she's also a determined firecracker. Her smile, raw energy and steely confidence soon project her beyond modelling and dancing to the glamorous world of moving pictures and she becomes a legend of the early silver screen.
Enter the mystical and magical world of the internet sensation ME Pearl, the psychic squirrel deity who created the universe and longs to open it up for you
Pearl is a dead squirrel who knows everything. With the aid of her earthly mouthpiece Georgette Spelvin (YouTube's famous "Opossum Lady"), Pearl has been sharing her psychic wisdom with her human disciples for years, delving into topics as varied and complex as love, money, work, health, and etiquette. Once hidden in the delightful corners of the internet for the canniest lurkers and most sacred seekers on the website MEPearl.com, Pearl's cosmology now comes to life in print for the first time ever, revealing for the masses the Secret for Everlasting Happiness, the Seven Deadly Virtues (like the Seven Deadly Sins . . . but more fun), and the Pearlestine Prophecies, in addition to a newly-unearthed trove of Pearl's bewitching, incisive, and illuminating advice that makes sense of every ancient--and current--mystery.
With the same "delightfully peculiar" (New York magazine) flair that has made Pearl and Georgette sensations online, Pearls of Wisdom welcomes readers into the bewildering and addictive world of ME Pearl--one rife with Jackie O. glamour, David Lynch lunacy, marsupial melodrama, and psychedelic spirituality. Proffering new insights on everything from wildlife to the afterlife, Pearls of Wisdom is a true sacred text for the internet age--if not eternity.
