The African-American Bookshelf

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mason, Clifford, PUBLISHER: Citadel Press, Much more than a cursory list of must-reads, The African-American Bookshelf provides sharp political commentary on and meaningful critiques of the classic works on subjects of interest to all Americans -- from politics and sports to the arts, and from cultural trends and civil rights to military history. Author and scholar Clifford Mason explores titles that are obscure and well-known, from the canonical (Booker T. Washington's Up From Slavery) to the radical (David Walker's Appeal to the Coloured Citizens of the World). Including books written by authors from the beginning of the country's history to contemporary writers (ranked from #1 to #50 in order of importance), Mason guides the reader through the highlights -- and lowlights -- of America's past. The African-American Bookshelf illustrates the contributions of black men and women to every part of the nation's history. This essential volume belongs in the library of every informed American reader and will appeal to scholars and historians as well as students of history and literature. Acquista Ora

Hydrogen Steel

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bedford, K. a. / K. a. Bedford, K. A. Bedford / Van Belkom, Edo, PUBLISHER: Edge, When retired top homicide inspector Zette McGee, late of Winter City, Ganymede, gets called out of her mysterious retirement to help Kell Fallow, a desperate former android accused unjustly of murdering his wife and children, she knows she has to help him, for Zette has a secret she is desperate to keep, and Fallow knows all about it. With the help of her best friend, the elderly but very suave former secret agent Gideon Smith, and his ridiculously impressive personal starship, the Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time, Zette sets out (a) to help the accused man, but also (b) to keep Gideon from finding out her own awful secret, even as everything they learn in the investigation keeps pointing to it. But when Kell Fallow is killed by a bomb he didn't know was buried in his guts, and when a homebrew android identical to Zette destroys her home on the luxurious Serendipity habitat, Gideon and Zette go on the run, only to run afoul of sabotage, spies, nasty infections, and bad guys galore and ordinary machines come to relentless, murderous life. The case will take Zette and Gideon on a terrifying journey into the darkest reaches of human space, in pursuit of an ancient truth -- and will bring her into deadly contact with that truth's keeper, the awesomely powerful firemind, Hydrogen Steel, an artificial consciousness evolved far beyond its original design, and which is utterly determined to keep that same truth from getting out, at any cost. Hydrogen Steel is a tense and thrilling mystery within a mystery, a tale of secrets and truth, and a journey to the limits of existence--and a bit beyond

Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Small Business Server 4.5 in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brelsford, Harry, PUBLISHER: Sams, Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Small Business Server in 21 Days, gives the reader a hands-on guide to installing and managing Microsoft's Small Business Server (SBS) product. SBS is designed for the small business and contains many unique components and management tools. The introduction and success of SBS surprised many in several ways. Consultants and VARs have struggled with the SBS paradigm of performing all actions via the SBS management console. Windows NT Server professionals commonly error by treating SBS just like big BackOffice, a fatal mistake. Small business owners and staff, seduced by Microsoft's "just add water" SBS marketing message, are surprised at the on-going maintenance requirements of SBS. And few books and outside resources exist to guide consultants, VARs, small business owners and staff alike on their SBS journey. With step-by-step instructions based on real-world experience, Harry Brelsford will take the reader through all of the stages of installing and maintaining their SBS installations. Along the way, Harry will keep the reader on the right track and out of the many pitfalls that spell disaster for the user.
