Networking for Systems Administrators (0692376941)

Stop waiting for the network team! If basic TCP/IP was hard, network administrators couldn't do it. Servers give sysadmins a incredible visibility into the network-once they know how to unlock it. Most sysadmins don't need to understand window scaling, or the differences between IPv4 and IPv6 echo requests, or other intricacies of the TCP/IP protocols. You need only enough to deploy your own applications and get easy support from the network team. This book teaches you: * How modern networks really work * The essentials of TCP/IP * The next-generation protocol, IPv6 * The right tools to diagnose network problems, and how to use them * Troubleshooting everything from the physical wire to DNS * How to see the traffic you send and receive * Connectivity testing * How to communicate with your network team to quickly resolve problems A systems administrator doesn't need to know the innards of TCP/IP, but knowing enough to diagnose your own network issues transforms a good sysa...

The Principles of Statistical Mechanics (9780486638966)

Referred to by every later author, used by thousands of students in the over forty years since publication, and recommended with great enthusiasm by those same students who are now professors, The Principles of Statistical Mechanics is widely recognized as the classic treatment of a subject essential to contemporary physics. It is the definitive treatise on the fundamentals of statistical mechanics, and because it deals with the fundamentals, the material is as useful today as forty years ago. After a brief introduction, the text begins with a concise exposition of classical statistical mechanics, including such topics as Hamilton's principle, the Lagrangian function, canonical equations of motion, the fundamental theorem of Liouville, conditions for statistical equilibrium, the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution law, collisions as a mechanism of change with time, and Boltzmann's H-theorem. There follows a thorough elucidation of quantum statistical mechanics: historical remarks,...

The Maids / Deathwatch (9780802150561)

The two plays collected in this volume represent Genet's first attempts to analyze the mores of a bourgeois society he had previously been content simply to vilify. In The Maids, two domestic workers, deeply resentful of their inferior social position, try to revenge themselves against society by destroying their employer. When their attempt to betray their mistress's lover to the police fails and they are in danger of being found out, they dream of murdering Madame, little aware of the true power behind their darkest fantasy. In Deathwatch, two convicts try to impress a third, who is on the verge of achieving legendary status in criminal circles. But neither realizes the lengths to which they will go to gain respect or that, in the end, nothing they can do--including murder--will get them what they are searching for.

THE ART OF KYU YONG EON (9788412328035)

Nací en 1979 en un pequeño pueblo a las afueras de Seúl, Corea del Sur. Tengo una personalidad introvertida y pasé mucho tiempo solo en casa cuando era niño. Por aquel entonces, no había muchos medios culturales en Corea a través de los que poder disfrutar de la cultura extranjera. Para la mayoría de las familias coreanas, las películas extranjeras que ponían en televisión los fines de semana eran uno de los mayores entretenimientos, así que siempre disfruté mucho de esos momentos. Me encantaban las películas de los grandes maestros, como Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, James Cameron o Ridley Scott, y siempre dibujaba escenas de dichas películas durante su emisión . Las influencias adquiridas entonces me ayudaron mucho más tarde como profesional. Cuando tenía 12 años, mi padre me compró una consola japonesa de 8 bits, y soñaba con llegar a hacer, algún día, un juego basado en una película. A los 18 años, el negocio de mis padres no iba bien, así que no pude asistir a las clases de educ...
