摘要：
“For many people, the simple act of walking may present a challenge. People with gait deficits display additional challenges that involve complex balance mechanisms. This becomes even more complicated if the person has a neurological deficit. This program presents walking challenges in a population of older adults and people with neurological deficits. Examination of gait and treatment intervention options are explored” — Container

本書簡介

In Patterns in Network Architecture, pioneer John Day takes a unique approach to solving the problem of network architecture. Piercing the fog of history, he bridges the gap between our experience from the original ARPANET and today’s Internet to a new perspective on networking. Along the way, he shows how socioeconomic forces derailed progress and led to the current crisis.

Beginning with the seven fundamental, and still unanswered, questions identified during the ARPANET’s development, Patterns in Network Architecture returns to bedrock and traces our experience both good and bad. Along the way, he uncovers overlooked patterns in protocols that simplify design and implementation and resolves the classic conflict between connection and connectionless while retaining the best of both. He finds deep new insights into the core challenges of naming and addressing, along with results from upper-layer architecture. All of this in Day’s deft hands comes together in a tour de force of elegance and simplicity with the annoying turn of events that the answer has been staring us in the face: Operating systems tell us even more about networking than we thought. The result is, in essence, the first “unified theory of networking,” and leads to a simpler, more powerful–and above all–more scalable network infrastructure. The book then lays the groundwork for how to exploit the result in the design, development, and management as we move beyond the limitations of the Internet.

Using this new model, Day shows how many complex mechanisms in the Internet today (multihoming, mobility, and multicast) are, with this collapse in complexity, now simply a consequence of the structure. The problems of router table growth of such concern today disappear. The inescapable conclusion is that the Internet is an unfinished demo, more in the tradition of DOS than Unix, that has been living on Moore’s Law and 30 years of band-aids. It is long past time to get networking back on track.

• Patterns in network protocols that synthesize “contradictory” approaches and simplify design and implementation

• “Deriving” that networking is interprocess communication (IPC) yielding

• A distributed IPC model that repeats with different scope and range of operation

• Making network addresses topological makes routing purely a local matter

• That in fact, private addresses are the norm–not the exception–with the consequence that the global public addresses required today are unnecessary

• That mobility is dynamic multihoming and unicast is a subset of multicast, but multicast devolves into unicast and facilitates mobility

• That the Internet today is more like DOS, but what we need should be more like Unix

• For networking researchers, architects, designers, engineers

Provocative, elegant, and profound, Patterns in Network Architecture transforms the way you envision, architect, and implement networks.

本書簡介

你看見的太陽，究竟是什麼樣子？

　　如果你曾看見隱沒在海平線上的火紅球體，或是雨後折射出的一道虹，更幸運的還看見鄰近南北極才可見的神祕極光，你就以為這是太陽的樣子，那麼太陽是會歎息的。

　　地球與太陽遙遙相距約一億五千萬公里，因此我們看見的日出日落、虹與霓、極光、日晷，縱然美麗無比，卻是太陽經過長途旅程到達地球後才出現的樣貌。

而真實的太陽，是否有更「懾人」的樣子？

SOHO衛星耗時十年拍攝的珍貴照片，引你欣賞真實的太陽面貌！

　　歐洲太空總署與美國太空總署共同研製的無人太空船──SOHO衛星，在一九九五年十二月二日升空，與地球運行軌道相同，但是以地球軌道半徑縮小一百五十萬公里的距離繞行太陽，二十四小時採集太陽圖像。太陽不僅能發射可見光，還包含各種不可見光，如X光與紫外線，透過精密儀器的捕捉，真實拍攝太陽風暴、日冕、耀斑、磁力環圈、太陽拱廊等，我們平時難以窺探的太陽面貌。

　　前SOHO衛星媒體專員希爾，除了收錄來自SOHO衛星的影像外，還收錄攝影家及其他天文與衛星觀測等共超過兩百幅極其珍貴的太陽圖像，近從我們在地球上所見的虹與極光，遠至太陽火球的黑子、日冕與耀斑，包含了我們曾看見的、與不曾看見的太陽。並由天文學作家卡洛維茨專文解說，發掘SOHO衛星與其他天文觀測對太陽的最新發現，提供科學家對太陽的最新研究與瞭解，進而讓我們更加認識這顆供給生命能量最無可取代的巨大恆星，逐步揭開與我們如此親近卻又極度遙遠的太陽真相。

【真相開始】你所知與不知的太陽──日珥。曙光。日冕。日柱。
【真相之一】太陽系之王──日出。日落。餘暉。
【真相之二】奇妙的光線──幻日。霧虹。日暈。綠閃。日行跡。
【真相之三】太陽的追隨者──石柱群。日晷。日食。環食。黑子。
【真相之四】地球邊際──極光。陰極線。微粒光束。地球磁場。
【真相之五】太陽，我們的恆星──耀斑。黑子活動。太陽拱廊。磁場線。磁力環圈。光球層。
【真相之六】太陽的天氣糟透了──質子風暴。磁繭。海馬耀斑。日冕質量拋射。莫頓波。
【真相之七】太陽之外──太陽系。太空實驗室。彗星。火星日行跡。沖日效應。星雲。

本書簡介

From ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) to ZS (Zellweger Syndrome)-there seems to be an alphabet disorder for almost every behavior, from those caused by serious, rare genetic diseases to more common learning disabilities that hinder children’s academic and social progress.Alphabet Kids have disorders that are often concurrent, interconnected or mistaken for one another, for example, the freguent combination of ASD, OCD, SID and ADHD-hence, ‘Alphabet Kids’. If a doctor only diagnoses one condition, he or she may have missed others. As the rates of these disorders dramatically rise, “Alphabet Kids” explains it all. Robbie Woliver covers 70 childhood disorders, providing information on causes, cures, treatments and prognoses. Chapters include a comprehensive list of signs and symptoms, and the disorders are illustrated with often heartbreaking, but always inspirational true-life stories of a child with the particular disorder.This comprehensive, easy-to-read go-to guide will help parents to sort through all the interconnected childhood developmental, neurobiological and psychological disorders and serve as a roadmap to help start the families’ journey for correct diagnoses, effective treatment and better understanding of their Alphabet Kids.

本書簡介

Children and young people with complex mental health needs are increasingly being cared for within specialist mental health care settings, either in the community or in in-patient facilities. With rapid social developments, it can be difficult for carers and practitioners to keep track of the law in this area.This book provides a guide to the law relating to mental health care for children and young people, their rights and entitlement to service, and discusses important issues in clinical and social care practice such as parental responsibility, Gillick competency and capacity, emergency intervention and detention, assessment of mental illness and confidentiality in practice. A chapter written by Mary Mitchell considers the diagnosis and management of complex mental illness in young people, and a concluding chapter discusses changes in the law.Jargon-free and accessibly written, this is an invaluable guide for professionals working in child and adolescent health and social care, social workers, youth workers, social welfare policy makers, medical professionals, teachers, educational professionals and students, as well as advocates for children and young people.

本書簡介

This groundbreaking text is the first to take a life course perspective, examining the relationship between the quality of one’s life in old age and one�s experiences, earlier choices, opportunities, and constraints. The text gives students a broad background for understanding current policy debates through a distinctive chapter entitled “Old Age and the Welfare State” (Chapter 11) and through boxed essays in every chapter called “An Issue for Public Policy.” Each chapter also includes a box called “In Their Own Words” that allows older people to describe their own experiences. In addition, coverage of race, class, gender, and culture is integrated throughout and featured in the “Diversity in the Aging Experience” sections.
