If we were to describe the C# language and its associated environment, the .NET framework as the most important new technology for developers for many years we would not be exaggerating. .NET is designed to provide a new environment within which you can develop almost any application to run on Windows, while C# is a new programming language that has been designed specifically to work with .NET. Using C#, you can write, for example, a dynamic web page, a component of a distributed application, a database access component, or a classic Windows desktop application. Between them C# and .NET are set to revolutionise the way that you write programs and to make programming on Windows very much easier than it has ever been. This book should equip you to program in C#, while at the same time providing the necessary background in how the .NET architecture works. It covers not only the fundamentals of the C# language, but also goes on to give examples of applications that use a variety of related technologies - including database access, dynamic web pages, advanced graphics, and directory access.

Představení ojedinělého programovacího jazyka Visual C++. NET, v němž lze jako jediném kombinovat řízený (managed) a neřízený (unmanaged) kód. Určení knihy programátorům předpokládá určité znalosti s technologiemi COM a ATL. Kniha je rozdělena do dvou částí. V první z nich se informuje výhradně o .NET a důsledcích jeho nástupu pro programátory. Zabývá se řízeným C++ a klíčovými oblastmi .NET z jeho hlediska, například komplety (assemblies), atributy, metadaty, ale i analýzou .NET Framework coby knihovny tříd. Druhá část se pak věnuje problematice neřízeného C++, nejdříve v kontextu úpravy staršího kódu pro jeho spolupráci s kódem psaným pro .NET Framework, poté programováním COM , novými prostředky ATL (ATL Serverem) a webovými službami ATL.

Few consumers are aware of the economic forces behind the production of meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. Yet omnivore and herbivore alike, the forces of meatonomics affect us in many ways.Most importantly, we've lost the ability to decide for ourselves what - and how much - to eat. Those decisions are made for us by animal food producers who control our buying choices with artificially-low prices, misleading messaging, and heavy control over legislation and regulation. Learn how and why they do it and how you can respond.Written in a clear and accessible style, "Meatonomics" provides vital insight into how the economics of animal food production influence our spending, eating, health, prosperity, and longevity"Meatonomics" is the first book to add up the huge "externalized" costs that the animal food system imposes on taxpayers, animals and the environment, and it finds these costs total about $414 billion yearly. With yearly retail sales of around $250 billion, that means that for every $1 of product they sell, meat and dairy producers impose almost $2 in hidden costs on the rest of us. But if producers were forced to internalize these costs, a $4 Big Mac would cost about $11.
