Ruby is an increasingly popular, fully object-oriented dynamic programming language, hailed by many practitioners as the finest and most useful language available today. When Ruby first burst onto the scene in the Western world, the Pragmatic Programmers were there with the definitive reference manual, Programming Ruby: The Pragmatic Programmer’s Guide.

Now in its second edition, author Dave Thomas has expanded the famous Pickaxe book with over 200 pages of new content, covering all the improved language features of Ruby 1.8 and standard library modules. The Pickaxe contains four major sections:
* An acclaimed tutorial on using Ruby.
* The definitive reference to the language.
* Complete documentation on all built-in classes, modules, and methods
* Complete descriptions of all 98 standard libraries.

If you enjoyed the First Edition, you’ll appreciate the expanded content, including enhanced coverage of installation, packaging, documenting Ruby source code, threading and synchronization, and enhancing Ruby’s capabilities using C-language extensions. Programming for the World Wide Web is easy in Ruby, with new chapters on XML/RPC, SOAP, distributed Ruby, templating systems, and other web services. There’s even a new chapter on unit testing.

This is the definitive reference manual for Ruby, including a description of all the standard library modules, a complete reference to all built-in classes and modules (including more than 250 significant changes since the First Edition). Coverage of other features has grown tremendously, including details on how to harness the sophisticated capabilities of irb, so you can dynamically examine and experiment with your running code. “Ruby is a wonderfully powerful and useful language, and whenever I’m working with it this book is at my side” –Martin Fowler, Chief Scientist, ThoughtWorks

This book covers the CherryPy library for Python web development from its history and installation through its main features and core concepts to its integration with Python and other products to construct, test, and deploy a sample photoblog application. The author Sylvain Hellegouarch is dedicated to the development of free software projects and has been coordinating and administrating the community efforts around the CherryPy project since 2004. The approach based on an example application introduces many other common Python libraries, providing transferable skills also relevant for non-web Python projects. CherryPy is a Python library for web development that allows developers to build web applications in the same way as any other object-oriented Python program. Enriched by several years of active development, it has become one of the most established toolkits for building solid and high-performance web applications in Python. CherryPy abstracts the complex low-level HTTP protocol into an easy-to-use interface that respects Python idioms. The library aims at being simple to learn for a beginner while offering the most advanced features to fluent Python developers. For these reasons CherryPy was chosen to be at the heart of the popular and feature-rich TurboGears web framework. CherryPy-powered web applications are stand-alone Python applications with their own embedded multi-threaded web server, but can also run behind Apache or IIS for scalability. . CherryPy installation using tarball, egg, and subversion . The CherryPy library in depth: its design and how to use it . Using CherryPy with common Python and non-Python products . Object Relational Mapping with SQLObject, SQLAlchemy, and Dejavu . Web Services via REST and the Atom Publishing Protocol . AJAX and client-side scripting via MochiKit . Unit, functional, and load testing . CherryPy, Apache, and lighttpd deployment solurions The book starts with two chapters dedicated to CherryPy itself, its history and installation. Then it moves through a gentle introduction to the main features and concepts of CherryPy to a thorough review of its core capabilities. After laying this foundation the book dives into a real-world example, detailing important steps in the creation of a photoblog application. These chapters cover database manipulation via Object Relational Mapping (ORM), using web services to enhance the application, and client-side scripting through AJAX. Finally, the book covers the need for unit, functional, and performance testing before closing with deployment solutions for a CherryPy-based application. Who this book is written for This book is principally geared towards Python web developers, who are looking to add the power of the CherryPy library to their existing Python skillset. It assumes a good working knowledge of Python . Although the CherryPy toolkit is at the core of the book, many other common libraries are introduced.

Encyclopedia of Measurement and Statistics 3-Volume Set
Sage Publications, Inc | ISBN 1412916119 | 2006-10-13 | PDF | 1416 pages | 8.6 MB

The study of measurement and statistics can be less than inviting. However, in fields as varying as education, politics, and health care, assessment and the use of measurement and statistics have become integral parts of almost every activity undertaken. These activities require the organization of ideas, the generation of hypotheses, the collection of data, and the interpretation, illustration, and analysis of data. No matter where educated people look, this critical analysis is more important than ever in an age where information�and lots of it�is readily available.

The ideas and tools contained in the Encyclopedia of Measurement and Statistics are approachable and can be invaluable for understanding a very technical world and the increasing flow of information. Although there are references that cover statistics and assessment in depth, none provides as comprehensive a resource in as focused and accessible a manner as the three volumes of this Encyclopedia. Through approximately 500 contributions, experts provide an overview and an explanation of the major topics in these two areas.

Andrew Pressley, “Elementary Differential Geometry”
Springer | ISBN 1852331526 | Year 2001 | 332 pages | DjVu | 1.2MB

Book Description
Curves and surfaces are objects that everyone can see, and many of the questions that can be asked about them are natural and easily understood. Differential geometry is concerned with the precise mathematical formulation of some of these questions, and with trying to answer them using calculus techniques. It is a subject that contains some of the most beautiful and profound results in mathematics, yet many of them are accessible to higher level undergraduates.
Elementary Differential Geometry presents the main results in the differential geometry of curves and surfaces while keeping the prerequisites to an absolute minimum. Nothing more than first courses in linear algebra and multivariate calculus are required, and the most direct and straightforward approach is used at all times. Numerous diagrams illustrate both the ideas in the text and the examples of curves and surfaces discussed there.

Reviews
“By the inclusion of 200 exercises with full solutions, this book has become a helpful tool for everyone teaching in its field. Summing up, it is a very good first book on the topic.” (Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten, 187, August 2001)

“…Pressley takes the simplest route with respect to all the technical setup: avoid it all. Instead of covariant derivatives, use derivatives with respect to local coordinates. Use moving frames without mentioning connections. Mention the Christoffel symbols very quickly, but don’t do very much with them. For the most part, it works…the book does include several versions of the Gauss-Bonnett theorem, allowing the professor to end the course with a bang. All in all, I was quite happy with the book.” (MAA Online)

The Perdue Chicken Cookbook
Publisher: Book Sales (November 2000) | Language: English | ISBN-10: 0785812008 | 266 pages | PDF | 786 KB

The Perdue name will lend credibility to this collection of chicken recipes. Written by Mrs. Frank Perdue, it neatly delivers what it promises: a variety of recipes complemented by nuggets of useful advice about nutritiously cooking chicken and preparing and purchasing poultry and other ingredients. It’s the kind of information the author claims she should have had on hand when she first faced the intimidating task of cooking for her husband, a man she calls “one of the world’s greatest experts” on the bird. Accordingly, recipes are designed and organized for home cooks, including some for the microwave oven, for the grill (boneless breasts Tandoori), for dieters (pasta primavera with chicken) and for the finicky (crispy peanut butter chicken). Also featured are Frank Perdue’s favorites–Hawaiian “layered” chicken and chicken a la Montmorency. To Mrs. Perdue’s credit, she presumes nothing about her readers’ capabilities, and explains as she goes. Only one dish appears totally unappealing: a crown roast constructed of chicken drumsticks.

Book Description:

The word anaesthesia is derived from the Greek language, meaning “without sensation�.Modern anaesthesia is safe. In countries that have extensive anaesthetic resources, the risk of dying is one in 100,000 to 500,000. The risk of death has decreased to one-tenth of what it was thirty years ago. Safety has improved with better knowledge of pharmacology and physiology, and advances in drugs, investigations, monitoring and education. The complexity and expense of providing anaesthesia has escalated.

When resources (personnel, equipment, drugs and funding) are limited, an anaesthetist with good clinical skills and a thorough knowledge of physiology, pharmacology, equipment and how disease will affect the patient, can provide safe and effective anaesthesia.

All anaesthetists must pay careful attention to detail. There must be thorough preoperative assessment and planning for anaesthesia. The anaesthetist should anticipate problems and have a secondary anaesthetic plan to deal with these problems. They must also be well trained in treating unanticipated emergencies.

Topological Invariants of Stratified Spaces
Springer | 2007-01 | ISBN: 3540385851 | 270 Pages | 1.23 MB | PDF

The central theme of this book is the restoration of Poincaré duality on stratified singular spaces by using Verdier-self-dual sheaves such as the prototypical intersection chain sheaf on a complex variety. After carefully introducing sheaf theory, derived categories, Verdier duality, stratification theories, intersection homology, t-structures and perverse sheaves, the ultimate objective is to explain the construction as well as algebraic and geometric properties of invariants such as the signature and characteristic classes effectuated by self-dual sheaves. Highlights never before presented in book form include complete and very detailed proofs of decomposition theorems for self-dual sheaves, explanation of methods for computing twisted characteristic classes and an introduction to the author’s theory of non-Witt spaces and Lagrangian structures.

The Random-Cluster Model (Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften)
Springer | 2006-07-26 | ISBN: 3540328904 | 380 Pages | 3.23 MB | PDF

The random-cluster model has emerged in recent years as a key tool in the mathematical study of ferromagnetism. It may be viewed as an extension of percolation to include Ising and Potts models, and its analysis is a mix of arguments from probability and geometry. This systematic study includes accounts of the subcritical and supercritical phases, together with clear statements of important open problems. There is an extensive treatment of the first-order (discontinuous) phase transition, as well as a chapter devoted to applications of the random-cluster method to other models of statistical physics.

Theory of Association Schemes
Springer | 2005-12-01 | ISBN: 3540261362 | 283Pages | 3.23 MB | PDF

Theory of Association Schemes is the first concept-oriented treatment of the structure theory of association schemes. It contains several recent results which appear for the first time in book form. The generalization of Sylow’s group theoretic theorems to scheme theory arises as a consequence of arithmetical considerations about quotient schemes. The theory of Coxeter schemes (equivalent to the theory of buildings) emerges naturally and yields a purely algebraic proof of Tits’ main theorem on buildings of spherical type. Also a scheme-theoretic characterization of Glauberman’s Z*-involutions is included. The text is self-contained and accessible for advanced undergraduate students.

Foundations of Classical Electrodynamics
Birkhäuser Boston | 2003-08-07 | ISBN: 0817642226 | 320 Pages | 2.23 MB | PDF

This book presents a fresh, original exposition of the foundations of classical electrodynamics in the tradition of the so-called metric-free approach. The fundamental structure of classical electrodynamics is described in the form of six axioms: (1) electric charge conservation, (2) existence of the Lorentz force, (3) magnetic flux conservation, (4) localization of electromagnetic energy-momentum, (5) existence of an electromagnetic spacetime relation, and (6) splitting of the electric current into material and external pieces. The first four axioms require an arbitrary 4-dimensional differentiable manifold. The fifth axiom characterizes spacetime as the environment in which the electromagnetic field propagates â€â€? a research topic of considerable interest â€â€? and in which the metric tensor of spacetime makes its appearance, thus coupling electromagnetism and gravitation. Repeated emphasis is placed on interweaving the mathematical definitions of physical notions and the actual physical measurement procedures. The tool for formulating the theory is the calculus of exterior differential forms, which is explained in sufficient detail, along with the corresponding computer algebra programs. Prerequisites for the reader include a knowledge of elementary electrodynamics (with Maxwell’s equations), linear algebra and elementary vector analysis; some knowledge of differential geometry would help. Foundations of Classical Electrodynamics unfolds systematically at a level suitable for graduate students and researchers in mathematics, physics, and electrical engineering.

With more than 7,000 zingers, the right crushing retort is always at hand! No more thinking of an apt reply after it’s too late: just store up a collection of choice rejoinders from over 1,000 ways to call somebody a fool and 600 ways to say someone’s acting stupid. Pick from hundreds of little-known terms for know-it-alls, egotists, flatterers, and nags. Really want to hit below the belt? Try a politically incorrect insult that zaps somebody for being too fat or thin, too young or old, or too socially unacceptable, sexually inept, or spiritually impoverished. So from now on, the weird, fussy, boring, loathsome and intolerable, or merely irritating had better watch out!

The Complete Robot by Isaac Asimov
Voyager | 680 pages | 15 Dec 1983 | ISBN: 0586057242 | rtf | 1450 kb

This book covers the very wide roll of robots in differing guises and their relationship with their human masters. Whether they are Automobiles, insects or planetary mining equipment the robots are constant and faithful. They go to extraordinary lengths to obey humans’ instructions to the letter in context of Asimovs’ ‘three laws of robotics’ which are programmed in to every robot positronic brain to protect us. Asimov persuades us to side with the robot against the contrary, ignorant, selfish bulk of humanity. Even those who, through intuition, intelligence and luck prevent potential disasters are deeply flawed as people. This book is a good introduction to Asimovs’ 14 book ‘history of the future’. It displays the authors ability to convince the reader that the worlds he creates are the natural consequences of the way people are and the sorts of robots we would create, not always by design.

Actionscript 3.0 Cook Book
Adobe Dev Library | 586 pages | October 11, 2006 | ISBN: 0596526954 | chm | 846 kb

Depending on the user this book can be used in different ways. The first way is to find specific answers to certain situations that may arise from everyday programming. The tables of contents are broken down into discrete sections pertaining to one aspect of AS3. If you are looking for help on string formatting a quick glance in the TOC will be a great start. In each section it is further broken down into sub-sections each addressing a particular point or “problem” that needs to be resolved. These sections are broken down into “Problem”, “Solution” and “Discussion”. Most sections show a short problem and solution but the meat of the text resides in the discussion portion. With the combination of code and explanation really breaks down the problem to a level most developers can understand. Additional footnotes are used to tie concepts together from section to section or “recipe to recipe”. The second way to read this book is cover to cover. Even though these topics are broken down in specific problems, learning from “quasi-real world issues” are always a great way to learn. To be honest I would have also preferred a table of contents with the actually problems mentioned in each section. I saw myself having to thumb through the whole book getting acquainted with what it had to offer. If there is that link established then when I do encounter that issue my mind will remember that I read something similar in this book. My overall impression was positive and will keep this book handy for future reference.

FreeBSD and OpenBSD are increasingly gaining traction in educational institutions, non-profits, and corporations worldwide because they provide significant security advantages over Linux. Although a lot can be said for the robustness, clean organization, and stability of the BSD operating systems, security is one of the main reasons system administrators use these two platforms. There are plenty of books to help you get a FreeBSD or OpenBSD system off the ground, and all of them touch on security to some extent, usually dedicating a chapter to the subject. But, as security is commonly named as the key concern for today’s system administrators, a single chapter on the subject can’t provide the depth of information you need to keep your systems secure. FreeBSD and OpenBSD are rife with security “building blocks” that you can put to use, and Mastering FreeBSD and OpenBSD Security shows you how. Both operating systems have kernel options and filesystem features that go well beyond traditional Unix permissions and controls. This power and flexibility is valuable, but the colossal range of possibilities need to be tackled one step at a time. This book walks you through the installation of a hardened operating system, the installation and configuration of critical services, and ongoing maintenance of your FreeBSD and OpenBSD systems. Using an application-specific approach that builds on your existing knowledge, the book provides sound technical information on FreeBSD and Open-BSD security with plenty of real-world examples to help you configure and deploy a secure system. By imparting a solid technical foundation as well as practical know-how, it enables administrators to push their server’s security to the next level. Even administrators in other environments–like Linux and Solaris–can find useful paradigms to emulate. Written by security professionals with two decades of operating system experience, Mastering FreeBSD and OpenBSD Security features broad and deep explanations of how how to secure your most critical systems. Where other books on BSD systems help you achieve functionality, this book will help you more thoroughly secure your deployments.

Virginia Smith, Clean: A History of Personal Hygiene and Purity
Oxford University Press | ISBN: 0199297797 | May 4, 2007 | 416 pages | PDF | 3.5 MB

The first television commercial was for soap, claims Virginia Smith in her thoroughly researched albeit occasionally sluggish new book. She doesn’t supply the dirty details about the commercial, but it’s easy to imagine that she is right. After all, such ads, along with hit tunes (”Splish Splash,” anyone?), nursery rhymes (”Rub a dub dub”) and Sesame Street ditties (”Rubber ducky, you’re the one, you make bath time lots of fun”) have helped soap and bathtub rituals leave a considerable ring around popular culture.

According to Smith, ads that pushed cleaning concoctions — not just for our bodies, but for our laundry and living spaces, too — blossomed along with the emergence of television during the 1950s. They were ubiquitous enough to inspire a durable nickname for serial daytime dramas, known henceforth as soap operas. Nowadays, Smith notes, soaps, shampoos, polishes and shower gels “are not quite the staple of TV advertising budgets that they were.” Still, ads featuring them continue to take hold of our imaginations. I remember, for example, an ’80s spot about a deodorant soap. The blue bar’s magical lather so invigorated the ad’s hero that he dressed eagerly, undeterred by the downpour outside his window. When his sleepy spouse asked him how he expected to get to work in such a deluge, he smiled confidently at the camera and declared, “backstroke.”

Of course that ad is tame by more recent standards. Who, for instance, can forget a certain herbal shampoo that promises a “totally organic experience”? In one such ad, the bubbly balm inspired a woman to climb the walls of her shower stall, loudly exclaiming her bliss while her clueless husband listened with concern on the other side of the door. These Madison Avenue productions are meant to convince us that few experiences can be as transporting — “Calgon, take me away” — as a serene soak or a sudsy washing-up.

Smith suggests that we really don’t need much persuasion. Our belief in the transformative power of a good scrub goes back centuries, the roots of which are carefully detailed in Clean. “The long story of washing and bathing water began in the Neolithic at some indeterminate date,” Smith believes. She goes on to show that our almost instinctive devotion to cleanliness has a solid basis in neurology, chemistry and other hard sciences that help us to understand that being groomed not only does away with dirt but also “produces mildly narcotic effects; and the longer it carries on, the more swooning or relaxing effects it achieves.” Totally organic indeed.

Smith, an honorary fellow of the Centre for History in Public Health in London, eschews digging into the dirty side of her discipline, preferring instead to look at “standards of cleanliness and the reformers of cleanliness.” Consequently, her dutiful discussion of influential texts such as the 363-verse Regimen Sanitatus Salernitanum slows down the narrative and sometimes proves more distracting than informative. Fortunately, Smith knows that it is necessary to provide a little “gross” intelligence here and there to keep her chronicle from circling the drain. To wit: “We shed skin, hair, and toenail clippings, and generally dispose of quantities of waste matter minute by minute, day by day, year in year out — normally between 3 and 6 ounces a day, or 4 tons in the average lifetime. Between 75 and 80 percent of vacuum cleaner dirt consists of human skin cells.”

Those wet and wild ancient Greeks and Romans knew nothing of skin cells — not to mention uprights and carpet sweepers — but they believed in the power of the bath. For Greeks, “water was a primordial thing that flowed across all the social and semantic boundaries,” taking on a divine aspect when featured in purification ceremonies. The Romans adapted Greek bathing habits to their own imperial culture. Their bathhouses became “masterpieces of the art” in which “the customer could wander at will, sampling each cold, hot, tepid, or steam bath.” But those were pagan playhouses that lost their gleam when the Christian church rose to influence after the fall of Rome. “The ideology of cleanliness was turned upside down,” Smith writes. “Judaeo-Christian asceticism insisted that the cleansing of the inner soul was absolutely imperative, whereas the cleansing of the outer body was a worldly distraction, and its ornamentation a positive sin.” Christians eventually reconciled bathing with their spiritual striving, however, and by the medieval era, monasteries were the best places to find excellent baths and latrines.

In the 21st century, personal hygiene has “reached a stage of general consensus,” incorporating venerable associations of purity, sanitation and spiritual health. But Smith rightly notes that “for many people today there is one sole and sufficient reason for practising personal hygiene that eclipses all others: self-representation.” There had been earlier outbreaks of cleanliness as vanity, however, and perhaps never more so extreme as in the 1600s and 1700s. “Throughout both of these centuries,” Smith tells us, “flesh was privately pampered, and everywhere on display.” But hygiene often took the form of perfumes, powders and paints instead of soap and water, and “fleas, lice, smeared paintwork and powerful body odors” often lurked underneath the elaborate facades.

Not so for us modern folk, right? In the technologically advanced West, “decades of increased personal hygiene and cosmetic awareness have finally paid off. . . . There are, quite literally, many more beautiful and unblemished people around.” And we’re as concerned about germs as we are about appearance: Smith estimates that 700 new antibacterial cleansing products hit the market between 1992 and 1998. Does that mean we’re sanitized as well as shiny? Well . . .

In his book Better, Atul Gawande, a surgeon, discusses the difficulty of “getting clinicians . . . to do the one thing that consistently halts the spread of infections: wash our hands.” If doctors are remiss about basic hygiene, just imagine how sloppy the rest of us must be.

Apparently, filthy habits are as common as that fragrant slab of sodium tallowate, hydrogenated tallow acid, glycerine and assorted chemicals sitting in your soap dish. Think about that at the next office party, when your grimy-fingered colleague grabs a generous handful of the communal cheese curls. Then leave a copy of Clean on his desk.

Ariel Stravynski, Fearing Others: The Nature and Treatment of Social Phobia
Cambridge University Press | ISBN: 0521671086 | March 12, 2007 | 450 pages | PDF | 1.6 MB

Social phobia is commonly regarded as a kind of disease caused by a deficient inner mechanism, but it may also be considered as a purposeful interpersonal pattern of self-protection from social threats. Though a critical assessment of several theoretical perspectives, this book attempts to clarify social phobia by critically discussing four questions: what is social phobia, what causes it, what is its nature and what kinds of treatments can improve.

Linux Security Cookbook by Daniel J. Barrett
O’Reilly Media, Inc.; 1st edition (June 2003) | ISBN:978-0596003913 | CHM | 727 kb | 336 pages

Computer security is an ongoing process, a relentless contest between system administrators and intruders. A good administrator needs to stay one step ahead of any adversaries, which often involves a continuing process of education. If you’re grounded in the basics of security, however, you won’t necessarily want a complete treatise on the subject each time you pick up a book. Sometimes you want to get straight to the point. That’s exactly what the new Linux Security Cookbook does. Rather than provide a total security solution for Linux computers, the authors present a series of easy-to-follow recipes–short, focused pieces of code that administrators can use to improve security and perform common tasks securely. The Linux Security Cookbook includes real solutions to a wide range of targeted problems, such as sending encrypted email within Emacs, restricting access to network services at particular times of day, firewalling a webserver, preventing IP spoofing, setting up key-based SSH authentication, and much more. With over 150 ready-to-use scripts and configuration files, this unique book helps administrators secure their systems without having to look up specific syntax.

Future Interaction Design by A. Pirhonen
Springer | 224 pages | 2005 | ISBN: 9781852337919 | PDF | 1.4 Mb

The perspectives and techniques used in human-computer interaction design, practice and research are broadening. This book looks at emerging approaches which are likely to contribute to the discipline in near future. The emphasis is on the social, cognitive, emotional, creative and active dimensions of the human actor. The underlying idea is that human character rather than technology should determine the nature of interaction. The concept of “interaction design� covers this broader range of concerns relevant to enabling quality design. Each chapter emphasizes alternative perspectives on interaction and new concepts to help researchers and practitioners relate to alternative design approaches and opportunities. Many of these new elements can be found to be successful and established in other fields, such as information systems development and industrial design. This volume will be of considerable value to those seeking innovative and developing perspectives upon both designing and ensuring effective interaction between humans and technology.

Piotr, Jaroszynski, Science in Culture
Editions Rodopi BV | ISBN 9042021365 | 2006 | PDF | 2 MB | 337 pages

When people deny that the Greeks were the first people to discover science, as happened even in Ancient times, they are not concerned with historical accuracy. They are reading history ideologically in terms of controversies between nations, religions, and civilizations (for example, between the Greeks and Egyptians, or the Greeks and the Jews). Later controversies about the conception of science also contain the same non-scientific element, and this exacerbates the controversy, for example, in the Protestant critique of Aristotelianism. In one way or another, we should consider that the controversy over science or the conception of science is deeply rooted in controversies extrinsic to science.

MySQL is the most popular SQL database in the open source community and is used almost universally by web sites running on open source systems. As powerful and flexible as it is lightweight and efficient, MySQL packs a large feature set into a very small and fast engine that now runs on more than 500,000 servers. This renowned online manual that has supported MySQL administrators and database developers for years is now available in paperback format. This book is an exact reproduction of the MySQL Reference Manual from the MySQL development team’s Web site, minus some non-technical appendices. This version covers MySQL 4.0.

Many sophisticated topics appear in this comprehensive manual, ranging from the hitches you may run into when first installing MySQL to internals that will help you tune your queries. MySQL Reference Manual contains all the comprehensive reference material one would expect for building the product, running administrative utilities, and using various API as well as MySQL’s rich version of SQL. In addition, you can turn a page and find such unexpected riches as:
* A thorough comparison of MySQL with SQL standards and other databases
* A discussion of privileges and suggested uses of privileges to enhance security
* Directions for replicating a database and for running several MySQL servers on a single system
* Directions for initializing a database from a flat file
* Guidelines for estimating the performance of different queries
* A far-reaching discussion of optimization, with reference to the implementation of MySQL
* Investigations of the differences between data types and the pros and cons of each type of number, string, or timestamp
* An extended inquiry into the effects of using delayed inserts
* A candid explanation of why various errors occur and how to recover from them
* Tips for weighted, full-text searches
* Detailed descriptions of the features, strengths, and weaknesses of available table formats

No serious MySQL user should be without this book.
