The book uses Java — an exciting, relatively new computer programming language. But Java’s subtleties and eccentricities aren’t the book’s main focus. Instead, this book emphasizes a process — the process of creating instructions for a computer to follow. Many highfalutin’ books describe the mechanics of this process — the rules, the conventions, and the formalisms. But those other books aren’t written for real people.
This isn’t just another Web-design book. It’s special. Really. I set out to write the one book I’d want by my side if I were looking to set up a really fancy Web site and not break the bank doing it. I tracked down and tested zillions of Web site enhancements and selected the top of the line to share with you. And I’m honestly proud of the results. I’ve authored or coauthored more than 20 books on computers and the Internet, and this one is my hands-down favorite.

You come across them everywhere. Not always in the flesh, of course. Their names are inscribed on the walls of temples and the badges of their old regiments are carved into rock faces around the world. I mean British soldiers, of course, who have served on every continent. At one time they policed one-quarter of the earth’s surface, which is a remarkable achievement for a comparatively small group of men (and these days, women) born in an insignificant group of offshore islands.
Confidence is one of those odd things in life that turn out to be surprisingly difficult to tie down (beauty and quality belong to this strange group too). You may think you know what it is, and you may feel certain that you can recognise it when you see it, but you may struggle to define exactly what ‘it’ is. Confidence is an everyday experience, something

The exams are based on an industry-wide analysis of what a PC repair service technician with 6 months of experience should know to be considered competent. The results of this analysis were validated in a worldwide survey of thousands of A+ certified professionals.
The two A+ certification exams are the Core Hardware exam (exam number 220-201) with 70 questions on microprocessors, displays, storage media and devices, printers, modems, buses, and other hardware components of a PC; and the OS Technologies exam (exam number 220-202) with 70 questions. Each test is geared to measure your knowledge over a variety of technical domains.
The basic idea behind Microsoft Access is to allow individuals and small businesses to manage large amounts of information the way the big corporations do — with relational databases. The difference is that while the big boys spend millions on computer hardware, software, and staffs of nerdy database-administrator types, Access allows you to do it all yourself with a run-of-the-mill PC and a realistic software budget.
Bioinformatics is about searching biological databases, comparing sequences, looking at protein structures, and (more generally) asking biological and biomedical questions with a computer. The bioinformatics we show you in this book can save you months of work in the lab at the minute cost of a few hours work with your computer. Although you’ll find standard biological terms throughout, don’t look here for long equations and computer-geek gibberish. The purpose of this book is to show you quickly and plainly how to use the bioinformatics programs that you need to get your work done.
In this book, I take you through the continuous cycle of bookkeeping, which begins with setting up your company’s books, developing a list of your company’s accounts (Chart of Accounts; see Chapter 3), developing your company’s General Ledger (which summarizes all the activity in a company’s accounts; see Chapter 4), and developing your company’s journals (which give details about all of a company’s financial transactions; see Chapter 5). Then I take you through the process of recording all your transactions — sales, purchases and other financial activity. I also talk

On the other hand, when you build your own computer, you know what makes it tick. You’ll blossom into a bona fide techno-wizard! With your assembly experience and your knowledge of PC hardware, you’ll be better prepared to fix problems and upgrade hardware and peripherals. The technicians at your local PC repair shop will wonder what happened to you; perhaps you should visit them from time to time just to swap hard drive specifications.
