Very good material
This book covers a wide area of subjects related to Client/Server architecture, networks, architecture design, implementation guidelines, strategy, security... There is a good balance between theoretical and practical knowledge. Due to the extend of the subjects, it can not go in depth in all points, but it is definitely a very practical and usefull reference book, probably aimed at managers ...

Understanding Flying

Richard L. Taylor

Macmillan USA, 1987

Very informative on the basics of aeronautics and navigation
This was the first great book I've read concerning aviation. With only moderate knowledge of aviation previous to reading this book, I was very pleased with the enormous amount I had learned. Though it is very informative and intended for adult readers, this is not at all a complex, hard-to-understand book. I read it a few years ago when I was about ten or eleven years old.

Instrument Flying

6 reviews
Richard L. Taylor

Wiley, 1986

Excellent knowledge base for IFR
This book is filled with many incredible tips for IFR flying. And you don't have to be IFR rated to understand the material. There are many jokes throughout the book but they are very relevant to the topic at hand and help emphasize the point. And they are not overbearing so most of the material is real "meat". The author cites many aviation accidents to show how not to fly IFR. It is really ...

Destruction And Reconstruction - Personal Experiences Of The Late War

3 reviews
Richard L. Taylor

Kingman Press, 2007

Not just an academic curiosity
At the time I write this review I am surprised to find there are only two others before me, and they are both from Louisiana, the state in which Richard Taylor resided at the outbreak of the war and which he so tirelessly strove to defend from Union depredations. A complex man, Taylor could be a stern martinet one moment, and then wax eloquent, displaying an artistic appreciation of life the ...

Univ of New Mexico Pr, 1995

Best overview of male homosexuality in Latin America
There are some excellent books on male homosexuality in particular sites (Hector Carrillo and Joseph Carrier on Guadalajara, Mexico; Richard Parker on (Rio) Brazil; Manuel Fernandez on (San Pedro, Honduras)) but this collection ranges much more widely, including material on indigenous cultures as well as the dominant machista one that varies only slightly from Texas to Tierra del Fuego, and ...

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2004

Expert Essays On Intricate Topics
These expert essays in honor of lexicographer Frederick Danker represent robust scholarship that is nonetheless not too arcane or inaccessible for this amateur reader. Beginning with Danker's own essay "Lexical Evolution and Linguistic Hazard," and including essays on the Septuagint, the BDAG, concordances, and aspect theory, this book is an immensely helpful and timely addition to the similar ...

Franklin Watts, 1993

First Solo Flight Around the World-The story of Wiley Post
This book is the telling of the life and adventures of Wiley Post. It is written in the style of a documentary. Black and white photographs help to tell the story as do the added maps and documents. The personality of Wiley Post, as well as his hopes, dreams, and fears are not shared with the reader. A glimpse of the times is seen and that helps to set this event in history.
