Book Description
Written from a photographer?s point of view, "Digital Retouching and Compositing: Photographers? Guide" solves every snap-shooter?s real-life problems painlessly. It distills complex topics down to a few pages of explanation and easy steps so users can quickly and dramatically change the way photos look. The book is divided into three parts: Mastering the Basics, Practical Retouching, and Compositing Magic. Each section builds on the last so that readers can become comfortable with making precise selections, doing simple retouching, and adjusting tones and colors before jumping into major topics like retouching portraits or creating realistic composites.

"You might already be familiar with The Five Practices from our book, The Leadership Challenge, which describes this research in detail. Or you might know The Five Practices because you have used our 360-degree assessment instrument, Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) to further your development as a leader. In case the practices are new to you, we provide a brief overview in Chapter 2 of this workbook. Whether you are familiar with our other work or not, we ask you to keep this in mind: When you engage in The Five Practices more frequently than you do at present, you will be more effective. We know from our research that those who Model, Inspire, Challenge, Enable, and Encourage more frequently are more likely to get extraordinary things done than those who do so less frequently. Exemplary leadership, in other words, is not an accident of birth or circumstance. It’s a result of conscious and conscientious practice.

Book Description
Introduction to Forensic Sciences, Second Edition is the current edition of this bestselling introductory textbook. Dr. William Eckert, one of the world's foremost authorities in the area of forensic medicine, presents each of the distinct fields that collectively comprise the forensic sciences in a logical, relatively non-technical fashion.Each chapter is written by a well-known expert in his/her respective field, and each specialty area is thoroughly treated. When appropriate, the various methods of applying these sciences in different countries are covered. Heavily illustrated, the Second Edition has been updated to include current procedures and techniques that were not available or usefully developed when the first edition was published.

The title of The Digital Filmmaking Handbook is something of an oxymoron, because this thorough book covers everything you need to know about filmmaking production, from concept to screening. The only missing element is film itself.

“As well as covering key principles it incorporates some great stories such as ‘Curing Mad Mice with Smelly Fish.’” (Journal of Biological Education, 2005)

Что-то стал народ в последнее время чаще и чаще жаловаться: дескать, оборжуинился (какое слово, а? :)) дом Авакса, все книжки на аглицком, а то и того хлеще - на испанском языке! Куда податься несчастному русскочитающему люду?!
Попробуем исправить ситуацию. Поскольку художественную литературу публиковать нет смысла - ее в сетевых библиотеках навалом, то обратим свой вооруженный взор на литературу научно-популярную и историческую. Для начала, вот такой интересный двухтомник о выдающихся ученых прошлого (и не будем верить инквизиторам от истории Фоменко и Носовскому, что это все отражения академика Капицы! :)).

Book Description
Here is your complete resource for state-of-the-art and cutting-edge techniques used for designing and fabricating broadband amplifiers. The book covers the complete design cycle, detailing each stage in a practical, hands-on manner to enable one to quickly gain specialist knowledge and insight into the intricacies of broadband amplifier design. Beginning with a discussion of amplifier theory and architecture, it delves into procedures for carrying out small-signal and large-signal characterization that are essential to the accurate modeling of broadband amplifiers. You learn how DPHEMT transistors deliver superior performance and how to use these devices in the simulation and design of broadband amplifiers. All the necessary analytical and practical information is provided on the design of broadband amplifiers via real examples.
