Best Selling Books by T. Taylor

This volume provides a history of St Michael''s Mount, the enigmatic tidal island off the coast of Cornwall.

An experimental investigation has been made to determine the effects of shroud-lip radius of curvature, shroud length, and shroud diffuser angle on the static thrust characteristics of a small-scale shrouded propeller which simulated a propeller submerged in the wing of an airplane. Also included are the effects of distance from the exit of the shroud to the ground on the thrust available take-off.

There are only, in my humble opinion, two kinds of readers. Readers who love your books. and… Readers who don’t know they love your books yet. But how do you reach those readers in the second category, no matter what kind of writer you are? The answer to that question is… Universal Fantasy Universal Fantasy is why my sales tripled when I “accidentally” wrote three books that landed in the Amazon Top 100. Universal Fantasy is why some authors get gobs of gushing reviews and some authors who write “way better” get crickets. Universal Fantasy is the answer to many of the questions you might have thought were unanswerable or simply up to luck, like… • Will this sell? • Why is that selling? • Why didn’t this sell? • Will readers like what I am writing? • Why do I love the TV shows/books/entertainments I do? • Why did I buy that thing I bought when I didn’t intend to buy it? BE WARNED…once known, Universal Fantasy cannot be undiscovered. Leave this book be if you’re truly satisfied with your current writing life. But if you’re not afraid—if you’re ready to know the secret hidden inside all bestselling stories, open this gift and find out how to use UNIVERSAL FANTASY to write and market books that SELL to ANYONE.

Discover how to apply software engineering patterns to develop more robust firmware faster than traditional embedded development approaches. In the authors’ experience, traditional embedded software projects tend towards monolithic applications that are optimized for their target hardware platforms. This leads to software that is fragile in terms of extensibility and difficult to test without fully integrated software and hardware. Patterns in the Machine focuses on creating loosely coupled implementations that embrace both change and testability. This book illustrates how implementing continuous integration, automated unit testing, platform-independent code, and other best practices that are not typically implemented in the embedded systems world is not just feasible but also practical for today’s embedded projects. After reading this book, you will have a better idea of how to structure your embedded software projects. You will recognize that while writing unit tests, creating simulators, and implementing continuous integration requires time and effort up front, you will be amply rewarded at the end of the project in terms of quality, adaptability, and maintainability of your code. What You Will Learn Incorporate automated unit testing into an embedded project Design and build functional simulators for an embedded project Write production-quality software when hardware is not available Use the Data Model architectural pattern to create a highly decoupled design and implementation Understand the importance of defining the software architecture before implementation starts and how to do it Discover why documentation is essential for an embedded project Use finite state machines in embedded projects Who This Book Is For Mid-level or higher embedded systems (firmware) developers, technical leads, software architects, and development managers.

Zusammenfassung: Learn how to create and release an embedded system in a fast and reliable manner. This book will help you build and release a commercially viable product that meets industry standards for quality. The book is not just about code: it covers non-code artifacts such as software processes, requirements, software documentation, continuous integration, design reviews, and code reviews. While specifically targeting microcontroller applications, the processes in this book can be applied to most software projects, big or small. Additionally, the book provides an open-source C++ framework that can be used to quick start any embedded project. This framework has an OSAL (OS Abstraction Layer) and essential middleware that is needed for many embedded systems. Using a hands-on approach of building-and-testing the software application first allows you to develop a significant amount of production quality code even before the hardware is available, dramatically reducing the start-to-release duration for a project. As you follow the recipes in this book, you will learn essential software development processes, perform just in time design, create testable modules, and incorporate continuous integration (CI) into your day-to-day developer workflow. The end-result is quality code that is maintainable and extensible, and can be reused for other projects, even when presented with changing or new requirements. The Embedded Project Cookbook is focused on the how of developing embedded software. For a discussion of the why, readers are invited to refer to the optional companion book Patterns in the Machine: A Software Engineering Guide to Embedded Development

The authors of this book have set out to give an account of the anatomy of the mammal and especially the cat, not only from the structural but also from the functional aspect. This approach has been used by the authors over a period of twenty years and they have found that it has been stimulating to the student. Right from the beginning of his biological training the student is encouraged to correlate form and function so that if at a later period he decides to become an anatomist or mammalian physiologist, he has a firm foundation on which to base his subsequent knowledge. The book is divided into fourteen chapters. The first chapter defines common terms and also gives a useful introduction to histology. The next twelve chapters give adequate, yet not too detailed accounts of the different systems. The fourteenth chapter gives instructions for the dissection of the cat. This book is attractively laid out and well illustrated, many of the illustrations being in colour. As a text-book for students beginning the study of mammalian zoology, this book can be highly recommended.
