Critical Tax Theory: An Introduction

2010-05-05T12:56:00.002+05:30

Critical Tax Theory: An Introduction By Bridget J. Crawford, Anthony C. Infanti
Publisher: Cambridge University Press 2009 | 422 Pages | ISBN: 0521734924 | PDF | 2 MB

Tax law is political. This book highlights and explains the major themes and methodologies of a group of scholars who challenge the traditional claim that tax law is neutral and unbiased. The contributors to this volume include pioneers in the field of critical tax theory, as well as key thinkers who have sustained and expanded the investigation into why the tax laws are the way they are and what impacts tax laws have on historically disempowered groups. This volume, assembled by two law professors who work in the field, is an accessible introduction to this new and growing body of scholarship. It is a resource not only for scholars and students in the fields of taxation and economics, but also for those who engage with critical race theory, feminist legal theory, queer theory, class-based analysis, and social justice generally. Tax is the one area of law that affects everyone in our society, and this book is crucial to understanding its impact.

Radhaganeshan P., "Pascal Programming"
New Age International Pvt Ltd | 1997 | ISBN: 8122410960 | 239 pages | PDF | 7,7 MB

A large number of substances are pumped into the earths atmosphere every day, because of endless anthropogenic activities. This has resulted in several chemical reactions and interactions. Understanding of different aspects of environmental chemicals is very vital for a proper and judicious management of toxic chemicals. In fact, global awareness on environment demands certain essential inputs.

These, for example, include information about different pollutants, nature of adverse and deleterious effects that the pollutants may cause to animals, humans and to the living environment; the kind of risks that these chemicals pose to humans and to the society at large; the protocols required to evaluate chemical safety; good laboratory
practices that should be followed to generate reliable and reproducible data and the manner of extrapolation of animal data to humans.

This book provides, in a comprehensive manner, some of the important information that is urgently required by a large number of readers representing a cross section of our society. In short, this book is a must for students, researchers and teachers studying the environment, and regulatory agencies and health managers involved in protection and preservation of our fragile environment.

Publisher: Apress 2010 | 1231 Pages | ISBN: 1430272406 | PDF | 21 MB

Microsoft’s Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) provides the foundation for building applications and high-quality user experiences for the Windows operating system. It blends the application user interface, documents, and media content, while exploiting the full power of your computer’s operating system.

Its functionality extends to the support for Tablet PCs and other forms of input device, and provides a more modern imaging and printing pipeline, accessibility and UI automation infrastructure, data-driven UI and visualization, and integration points for weaving the application experience into the Windows shell.

This book shows you how WPF really works. It provides you with the no-nonsense, practical advice that you need in order to build high-quality WPF applications quickly and easily. Having built a firm foundation, it goes on to explore more advanced aspects of WPF and how they relate to the others elements of the .NET 4.0 platform and associated technologies such as Silverlight.

What you’ll learn

* WPF basics: XAML, layout, control essentials, and data flow
* WPF applications: Navigation, commands, localization, and deployment
* Advanced controls: Custom controls, menus, toolbars, and trees
* WPF documents: Text layout, printing, and document packaging
* Graphics and multimedia: Drawing shapes, sound and video, animation, geometric transformations, and imaging

Who is this book for?
This book is designed for developers encountering WPF for the first time in their professional lives. A working knowledge of Visual Basic (VB) and the basic architecture of .NET is helpful to follow the examples easily, but all concepts will be explained from the ground up.

About the Author
Matthew MacDonald is an author, educator, and MCSD developer who has a passion for emerging technologies. He is a regular writer for developer journals such as Inside Visual Basic, ASPToday, and Hardcore Visual Studio .NET, and he’s the author of several books about programming with .NET, including User Interfaces in VB .NET: Windows Forms and Custom Controls, The Book of VB .NET, and .NET Distributed Applications.

DB2 Developer's Guide

Craig S. Mullins, DB2 Developer's Guide
Sams Publishing | ISBN: 0672326132 | 2004 | CHM | 1512 pages | 12.88 MB

Marketshare for DB2 has been growing steadily over the past 5 years and with the announcement of DB2 Universal Database V8 (T-Rex), the product has never had more momentum. DB2 owns about 30 percent of the database market--the same as Oracle. Not only is the product used in many Fortune 500 companies, but it is becoming very popular in small to medium sized businesses as well. This book provides the reader with a comprehensive reference and research tool for DB2 for the mainframe. Official material is awkwardly written, spans over a dozen manuals in PDF format, and lacks real-world guidance. Author, Craig Mullins, consistently hears from readers of past editions that they rely on this book as their primary reference for DB2. Craig Mullins is constantly being asked when it will support a new release. "This is an excellent book . . . It is chock full of DB2 technical information, design and tuning approaches and database administration guidelines . . .Mullins seems to have dumped his entire DB2 life experience into DB2 Developer's Guide."- Jonathon Sayles in Relational Database Journal.
