Download or read book Ruminations on C written by Andrew Koenig and published by Addison-Wesley. This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruminations on C++ concentrates on the key C++ ideas and programming techniques - skimming the cream - to let you understand the "why" and not just the "how" of C++ programming. You need not be an expert C++ programmer to find solid fodder here, yet even experts need not fear overgrazing: You will find something worth chewing on in every chapter. This should be your next C++ book, because it covers a broad range of C++ ideas and techniques, from detailed code examples to design principles and philosophy; shows how to think about programming in C++, not just how to follow rules; explains the motivation behind its examples, sometimes even solving the same problem in two different ways; covers both object-oriented programming and generic programming; and explains the ideas behind the Standard Template Library, which is the most important recent innovation in C++. This book comes to you from two people who started using C++ when its entire user community could still fit in one room. Both of them have contributed significantly to the evolution of C++.

The book has become very popular among people and is recommended by therapists, psychologists and doctors. During the years readers have sent text messages and e-mails: "I do not know how to thank you. Your book 'Quit Ruminating and Brooding' gave me a chance to a life. After postpartum depression, OCD and paralyzing anxiety, I had given up. I found your book and it saved me. Thank you." "I bought your book about rumination and anxiety recently.I wish I had read it twenty years ago. It has given me understanding and tools to work with. Thank you." "I have been feeling bad for a long time in my adult life. The fall 2016 was probably the worst ever. I could not manage my studies to become a lawyer and my relationship was suffering heavily. Basically, my whole existence was dominated by unrest. Your book introduced me to a new way to look at the thinking and quite soon I experienced enormous improvements." "In the beginning of January, I read your book and much fell into place. Suddenly I understood that what my friends, my girlfriend, and my therapist had been doing for me was wrong." "The psychologist Olle Wadström has written this fantastic book. He gives us a toolbox that can take us out of our anguish. The reason for your broodings may not be what you think, and the solution is vertiginous. Read, learn, practice, and enjoy the tranquility that follows." www.mariehelander.se
Download or read book Depressive Rumination written by Costas Papageorgiou and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-02-06 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rumination (recyclic negative thinking), is now recognised as important in the development, maintenance and relapse of recurrence of depression. For instance, rumination has been found to elevate, perpetuate and exacerbate depressed mood, predict future episodes of depression, and delay recovery during cognitive therapy. Cognitive therapy is one of the most effective treatments for depression. However, depressive relapse and recurrence following cognitive therapy continue to be a significant problem. An understanding of the psychological processes which contribute to relapse and recurrence may guide the development of more effective interventions. This is a major contribution to the study and treatment of depression which reviews a large body of research on rumination and cognitive processes, in depression and related disorders, with a focus on the implications of this knowledge for treatment and clinical management of these disorders. * First book on rumination in depressive and emotional disorders * Contributors are the leaders in the field * First editor is a rising researcher and clinician with specialist interest in depression, and second editor is world renowned for his work on cognitive therapy of emotional disorders

Download or read book All Over the Map written by Ron James and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER Canada's most verbally virtuosic comic makes his literary debut—and he's just as richly, gloriously funny on the page as on stage. His legion of fans—the ones who ensure his every show the length and breadth of Canada is sold out—recognize Ron James as one of the great stand-ups of his generation. His seemingly improvisational flights of fancy—no two shows are ever the same—are crammed with inventive phrase-making, feature a voluminous vocabulary, and put every word into the service of uproarious comedy. He sounds like a man born to write a great book—and now at last he has. But this is a book he has been writing for most of his life, in his head, in his car, while driving from gig to gig. In All Over the Map, Ron has brilliantly captured the voice that has enthralled millions on stage and screen. He also lets up a little on the usually relentless laughs (though there are still plenty of those) to reveal a new dimension to his beloved showbiz character. His hilarious reminiscences of growing up in Nova Scotia and his early struggles as an aspiring comic, his reveries on such topics as family, country, celebrity and lessons learned from myriad chance encounters will deepen our appreciation for this great comic and win him many new fans in his new role as author.

Arts-Based Research in Education: Foundations for Practice: helps the reader understand what arts-based research is – tracing the history of the field and providing examples; includes end-of-chapter questions to engage students in practicing arts-based inquiry and to generate class discussion about the material; features a diverse range of contributors -- very established scholars in educational and social science research as well those new to the field; represents a variety of voices – scholars of color, queer and straight orientations, different ages, experience, and nationalities; and presents beautiful illustrations of visual art, data-based poems, plays, short stories, and musical scores. First-of its kind, this volume is intended as a text for arts-based inquiry, qualitative research methods in education, and related courses, and as a resource for faculty, doctoral students, and scholars across the field of social science research methods.
Download or read book The American Psychiatric Publishing Board Review Guide for Psychiatry written by Philip R. Muskin and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2016-04-13 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychiatrists and residents are faced with the important -- but what may feel overwhelming -- task of refreshing their knowledge of the whole of psychiatric practice, typically while remaining engaged in full-time clinical activity. Psychiatrists will find the logical structure, substantive questions, and thorough explanations provided by the Study Guide for the Psychiatry Board Examination to be as reassuring as they are educational. Although readers are advised to consult a range of resources in preparation for the examination, this guide is indispensable. It is the first and only guide to reflect the revisions contained in DSM-5®, and it will ably assume a primary role in the study and review process. The guide is designed for maximum usefulness, with specific features and attributes to support knowledge recall and successful examination performance. The authors are from a cross-section of accomplished students, fellows, and junior and senior faculty, all of whom have faced or will face the board examination and who understand its importance to the profession. Topics were determined by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology Certification Examination in Psychiatry 2015 Content Blueprint. The approximately 400 questions were formulated from information extracted from widely available American Psychiatric Publishing textbooks and accurately reflect the accepted psychiatric knowledge base. Each multiple choice question is followed by an explanation of why the correct answer is correct and the others are incorrect, and every question and explanation is referenced, directing the reader to the primary material for more in-depth learning and study. The volume was designed as a study guide for both the initial psychiatry board examination and the recertification examination. The process of working through the study guide will allow the reader to identify areas of strength and weakness, initiate further study, and test and retest knowledge, ultimately preparing for the examination's rigors. Only the Study Guide for the Psychiatry Board Examination offers support for the new, DSM-5® -- compatible examination, and that alone renders it essential.
