本書所介紹的物件導向ANSI-C語言並不是一個新的語言，它只運用單純ANSI-C語言的巨集(Macro)技巧，實現了物件導向的基本技術，所以簡稱為OOPC語言。大家都知道「物件導向Python + C/C++語言」是個美好的結合。然而「物件導向ANSI-C + Python」更是力與美的完美組合。近年來，嵌入式(Embedded)軟體應用愈來愈廣，如數位家電、手機、數字化汽車等。而嵌入式軟開發所使

In July 1996, during an extraordinary out-of-body journey through the Milky Way and other galaxies, Patricia Cori was reconnected and attuned to a group of interdimensional light beings that she and her many readers came to know, through the first Sirian Revelations transmissions, as The Sirian High Council. During her remarkable mission as their Scribe, she has shared the insights of six-dimensional Sirian Light Emissaries through the books and teachings that have transformed readers over the past decades. Now, twenty years from the date of the first transmission, Cori shares new revelations that affirm the veracity of past prophecies and transmit new visions for the human race as we ascend through the outer reaches of the fourth dimension into new levels of conscious awareness and parallel realities as we prepare for our imminent emergence. Called a "real-life Indiana Jones" by fans and readers around the world, Cori is one of the most well-known and established authorities on m

《系統思考 Systems One》確實是一本「隱型經典」，它是美國MIT麻省理工學院系統動力學教授們長年推薦有關系統思考的「課外讀本」。希望各位老師、學生、家長、企業主管與政府官員都能細心閱讀這本著作。 系統思考的著作䌓多，有的針對問題解決，例如《第五項修練》就是集中在企業問題；或1972 年由羅馬俱樂部研究出來的《成長上限》集中在社會問題；有的則集中在教育如何學習系統思考，但這類著作的通病都是

What a Waste! answers the question: when we throw something away, where is ?away”? Ever since cave people cracked open seafood shells for dinner, humans have produced garbage, and we’ve had to figure out what to do with it. What a Waste! explores the history of garbage from earliest times to today, covering subjects including dumps, human waste, water pollution, ?problem” garbage, and modern ?throwaway” culture. From islands made out of 5,000-year-old garbage in the Florida Everglades and sophisticated waste-disposal systems in ancient Pakistan to ?fatbergs” the size of a city bus in sewers today, What a Waste! delves into the fascinating, weird, and often disgusting world of garbage, and shows why it’s a growing problem. Creative solutions are showcased, like Repair Cafés to fix broken items, grocery stores that specialize in ?imperfect” fruits and vegetables, and filtration systems in Kenya made from discarded water bottles. With an inviting presentation including hand-lettering and

About Firearms An Illustrated HistoryThis fascinating visual account of firearms shows everything from the earliest cannons to modern weapons of war. It also highlights how gun technology and military tactics developed in tandem over time.Centuries ago, the Chinese discovered that if they put gunpowder and a projectile into a metal tube and ignited it, they could fire the projectile with enormous force. The first guns were born. Firearms: An Illustrated History showcases over 300 firearms including pistols, revolvers, rifles, shotguns, machine-guns, and artillery, each with annotated close-up photographs and details of their origins, barrel, and calibre. It details the use of the firearms, not just in the military but for sport, hunting, and law enforcement.This comprehensive volume traces the history of firearms, highlighting "turning points" such as the rifle with its parallel spiralled groves that could impart a spin to bullets making them fly straighter.
