Paperback. Condition: Good. FOR THOSE OF YOU NEW to my earlier book, ADO Examples and Best Practices, it was originally written as an update to my popular Hitchhiker's Guide to Visual Basic and SQL Server, Sixth Edition. Happily, the first edition of ADO Examples and Best Practices received glowing praise from a variety of reviewers, trainers, and devel- opers allover the world. The first edition was not designed as a tutorial on basic ADO; it assumed you had at least some experience with ADO (there are lots of elementary ADO books). In contrast, the Visual Basic version of this new edition adds quite a bit more introductory material to fill in some of the spaces not covered by the introductory books. It also leads the way for developers contem- plating the process of converting existing COM -based ADO code to ADO. NET. ADo. NET and ADO Examples and Best Practices for VB Programmers, Second Edition, focuses on ways to make your applications more efficient and at the same time help you write more efficient code in less time. These efficiencies can make the difference between a successful application (or component orWeb page) and having to spend your weekends fixing its problems. It's been several years since the first edition was published and what Microsoft was going to call Visual Basic 7. 0 is still not released to manufac- turing-and it's probably never going to be.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 2005 OUP hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. The Cambridge philosopher Frank Ramsey (1903-1930) died tragically young, but had already established himself as one of the most brilliant minds of the twentieth century. Besides groundbreaking work in philosophy, particularly in logic, language, and metaphysics, he created modern decision theory and made substantial contributions to mathematics and economics. In these original essays, written to commemorate the centenary of Ramsey's birth, a distinguished international team of contributors offer fresh perspectives on his work and show how relevant it is to present-day concerns. Each of the ten essays addresses fundamental and contentious issues, including success semantics, propositions, infinity, conditionals, conceptual analysis, decision theory, and intergenerational justice. They also shed light on the intellectual context in which Ramsey developed his thought, including his relationship with such leading thinkers as John Maynard Keynes, Bertrand Russell, and Ludwig Wittgenstein. The volume will be indispensable reading for anyone interested in the recent history of philosophy and economics, as well as for practitioners and students of logic, metaphysics, philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of science, philosophy of mind, decision theory, and welfare economics.
