* Knowledge building, confidence building - Takes the reader
further and quicker than they thought possible - from a little HTML
knowledge to the essentials of the Java language, JSP, MySQL, SQL,
Struts. * Practical - Contains case studies that show the reader
how to use JSP to build common types of web sites using tools used
in production applications (such as the Struts Framework) that the
reader can then extend as they explore JSP further. * Career
building-provides a way into the real world of programming for
readers with no previous programming experience.
This book is broken down into 6 parts. The first describes the
emergence of a worldwide network of computers, here called
Worldnet, and the practices that people have engaged in as a
result. The second part describes the problem of electronic
breakins. The third part deals with the phenomenon of worms. The
fourth part deals with viruses. The fifth part of the book gives a
glimpse of the worlds in which hackers live. The final part deals
with the social context in which people make ethical and moral
interpretations and propose new laws.
The Handbook of Software for Engineers and Scientists is a
single-volume, ready reference for the practicing engineer and
scientist in industry, government, and academia as well as the
novice computer user. It provides the most up-to-date information
in a variety of areas such as common platforms and operating
systems, applications programs, networking, and many other
problem-solving tools necessary to effectively use computers on a
daily basis. Specific platforms and environments thoroughly
discussed include MS-DOS (R), Microsoft (R) Windows (TM), the
Macintosh (R) and its various systems, UNIX (TM), DEC VAX (TM), IBM
(R) mainframes, OS/2 (R), Windows (TM) NT, and NeXTSTEP (TM). Word
processing, desktop publishing, spreadsheets, databases, integrated
packages, computer presentation systems, groupware, and a number of
useful utilities are also covered. Several extensive sections in
the book are devoted to mathematical and statistical software.
Information is provided on circuits and control simulation
programs, finite element tools, and solid modeling tools.
Additional coverage is included on data communications and
networking. Many appendices at the end of the book provide useful
supplemental information, such as ASCII codes, RS-232 parallel port
and pinout information, and ANSI escape sequences. This valuable
resource handbook brings together a wide variety of topics and
offers a wealth of information at the reader's fingertips.

What do we really know about the sources of Adolf Hitler's
anti-Semitism? What led him to become such a genocidal anti-Semite?
It is often said that the strongly anti-Semitic atmosphere in
pre-war Vienna, in which Hitler failed to achieve his dream of
becoming an artist, was when his hatred of the Jews first began to
stir. We also often read that such feelings were compounded by the
so-called stab in the back' by Jewish-Marxists at the end of the
First World War, which led to Germany's humiliating capitulation.
The Darwinian science of natural selection is often included in the
debate as well, which to Hitler meant keeping the Germanic race
pure' and untainted by the inferior' Jews. However, as Peter den
Hertog sets out in this book, such external, cultural and
environmental factors were also experienced by most of Hitler's
contemporaries, and they did not all turn into rabid Jew-haters. In
this study, the author investigates what we do know about the roots
of the German leader's anti-Semitism. He also takes the significant
step of mapping out what we do not know in detail. This allows the
reader to understand which information needs to be looked for in
the search for a complete explanation. Historians will be
historians and so have their own way of looking at the world. This
fails to provide us with complete clarity in this matter. That is
why this study also employs insights from Psychology, Psychiatry
and Forensic Psychiatry. Readers even take a trip 65 million years
back in time to the field of Evolutionary Psychology. The author
reveals how Hitler was a man with highly paranoid traits. The
causes of this paranoia are clarified for the first time and its
connection to Hitler's anti-Semitism is explained in depth. The
author also explores, and answers, whether the F hrer gave one
specific instruction ordering the elimination of Europe's Jews,
and, if so, when this took place. Peter den Hertog is able to
provide an all-encompassing explanation for Hitler's anti-Semitism
by combining insights from many different disciplines. He also
succeeds in clarifying how Hitler's own particular brand of
anti-Semitism could lead the way to the Holocaust.
