5 out of 5 stars Excellent resource on MobileIPv6.......2006-11-09

This book provides an excellent discussion about MIPv6. It explains the MIPv6 protocol in detail. It also elaborates on the aspects of security and Handover. The book has a very helpful introduction about IPv6. The book does not include much about CDMA2000 based data networks, so for people looking for information about specific 3GPP2 extensions to MIPv6 this book might not be the best resource. My recommendation is that this book should be in the library of any engineer who works/intends to work with MIPv6.

4 out of 5 stars Clear description of its subject.......2004-05-01

The Internet currently uses IPv4, which has 32 bits of addressing. But over the next few years, this is expected to be exhausted, as China and other developing countries increasingly come online. Plus as your digital camera, car, cellphone and PDA are increasingly likely to have their own Internet addresses. Beyond IPv4 is IPv6, using 128 bits.

So the question is not if IPv6 will be implemented, but when. Concomitant with this are questions about its viability, and, as a huge practical matter, how can it be incrementally deployed, side by side with existing IPv4 networks? Plus, how can mobile devices (think cellphones as the prime example) efficiently use IPv6? This is the subject of Soliman's book.

The bulk of the book revolves around a problem which can best be described by a simple analogy. Suppose you have a cellphone with a phone number, which includes an area code. Nowadays, you can take that phone to any region in your country that supports cellphones, and expect your phone to work. Even if you are outside your area code. The phone companies have implemented algorithms that allow this.

Mobility in IPv6 deals with the corresponding problem on the Internet. Imagine now that your cellphone or other device has a fixed IPv6 address. This is desirable so that others can contact you. Many issues now arise, along with possible solutions, as explained by Soliman. Like authentication and authorisation. That is, if you go to another IPv6 network and try to connect, it must somehow ascertain that you have a valid IPv6 address elsewhere.

Or consider the very act of moving between two IPv6 networks, when you are communicating with someone else. How can that person's messages be forwarded to your new (temporary) IPv6 location, and how can it be done efficiently?

The book describes these problems (and others) and their proposed solutions in detail. I say proposed solutions deliberately. As Soliman makes clear, some of these solutions will need further research as to their efficacies, and may well be modified as a result of this. You can get a clear sense of the subject and what the key issues are from this book.

                      Book Description

                      Echinacea has emerged from the realm of folklore medicine and into the territory of valued and potentially fundamental therapy. While an understanding of the promising medicinal applications of Echinacea is important, knowledge of the herb's chemistry, cultivation, and analytical profiles is equally as significant. Echinacea: The genus Echinacea examines every element of the popular herb. Several chapters in this volume deal with the taxonomy, genetics, international culture methods, and chemistry of Echinacea, while other sections focus on the analytical evaluation of the various plant parts, such as the roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. The text explains how the plant is cultivated and describes the locations where it is most abundant. It presents different species of Echinacea that are medically important, and then identifies the chemically active ingredients that give Echinacea its strong pharmaceutical and therapeutic value. The book also includes a discussion of proper medicinal and veterinary uses, as well as guidance on when this remedy should not be used. With comprehensive analysis of this popular herb, this timely book bridges the gap between the abundant molecular cataloguings of the phytochemicals present in genus Echinacea, and the functional potential of this plant. It will be a valuable resource for anyone involved in the fields of plant science, natural products chemistry, medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, and naturopathy.

                            Book Description

                            The genus Magnolia consists of several medicinally important species most of which come from Far East Asia. Many species of this genus have traditionally been used in China and Japan to treat various illnesses from simple headaches to complicated cancer, and because of their versatility have more recently been incorporated into commercially successful medicine preparations. And with the revival of interest in herbal and oriental traditional medicines, many of these Magnolia-containing preparations have captured a significant proportion of the drug market in the Western countries. In recent years several studies have been performed with Magnolia species, resulting in the isolation of a number of bioactive compounds and discovery of new biological and pharmacological activities. This book deals comprehensively with many aspects of the genus Magnolia detailing areas such as phytochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, quality control, and commercial significance.

                                      >This is a scientifically definitive reference text on the organizational, institutional, and substantive aspects of research on mountain environments in Europe from the Pyrenees to Siberia conducted under the auspices of UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere Program. It presents the author's expert analyses of published and unpublished research supported by interviews and field visits to Austria, France, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Poland, and the former Soviet Union. For each country, the analysis focuses on its mountain regions and on the organization, research activities, and conclusions of UNESCO's MAB-6 project, "Impact of human activities on mountain and tundra ecosystems." The closing chapter evaluates that project's use of models, organizational and institutional issues, lessons for interdisciplinary research, and legacy for the future. In addition to a comprehensive index, this book has the most complete bibliography-over 200 references-ever compiled on this subject.

                                      This breakthrough book establishes deep connections between elementary particle theories such as the Standard Model and Superstring theories, and computer languages such as Assembly language, C, and C++ suitably extended. It also proves, for the first time, that the universe must be quantum in nature based on Godel¿s celebrated theorem (that there are statements in any non-trivial mathematical deductive system that cannot be proved or disproved.) Therefore all attempts at building a deterministic fundamental theory of physics (such as Bohm¿s theory) are unacceptable.

                                      Book Description

                                      Since his first appearance in print in 1919, Jeeves has become synonymous with British tongue-in-cheek humor. Valet to bumbling aristocrat Bertie Wooster, Jeeves is continually helping his employer out of scrapes. In this debut novel, Wooster's lovesick pal Bingo Little decides to marry and enlists his friend's help. Luckily for Wooster, Jeeves comes to the rescue.

                                      4 out of 5 stars A whole lot of fun! 4.5 Stars.......2007-07-13

                                      I can't recall reading a more consistently comical book in my whole life. I wasn't sure at the start if I was going to enjoy this. For one thing, what do most of us have in common with the idle rich of 1920's England? These blokes spend most of their days carefree and content, engaging in such benign activities as hanging out at the local bar all day and gambling on everything from the ponies to what was dubbed "the great Sermon Handicap". The latter is essentially a bet about which of the parsons in the area (there are about a dozen total) end up performing the longest sermon on Sunday. What a life huh?

                                      Bertie Wooster, our main protagonist, is a couple of IQ points above being labeled a true simpleton. He is however, despite all of his shortcomings, an extremely likeable chap all the same. Bertie would be lost in this world if it weren't for his valet, his right-hand man - Mr. Jeeves. Although Jeeves may be a man of few words, there is no doubt of his wisdom every time he does open his mouth to speak. He consistently saves the day, and keeps Bertie's chaotic life from becoming an absolute catastrophe. The refined, conservative Jeeves also does his best in preventing Bertie from dressing like a total nerd (their constant battles over Bertie's eccentric style of clothing is priceless!). On top of that, Bertie's best friend Bingo keeps falling in love with every female he sees with a pulse (which of course calls for Jeeves assistance as well). And lastly, to add even more flavor to this already colorful crew is Bertie's Aunt Agatha. This rich, pretentious, highfalutin' dame is something else to say the least. She reminds me a bit of a more refined Hyacinth Bucket from that classic British sitcom "Keeping up Appearances". Bottom line, the whole bloody bunch is absolutely hilarious!

                                      There is nothing in this light-hearted book that is going to broaden your intellect and make you any more enlightened or wiser. However, if you are looking to have some fun, not have to think too hard, and also want to laugh, than this book is ideal for you. I am greatly looking forward to reading quite a bit more of these Jeeves & Wooster books. If they are anything like this one, I am going to be one happy man (there are thirteen more!). It took me a while, but I am glad I finally got around to reading Wodehouse. The chap definitely had a unique sense of humor and I enjoy his facile, sunny style of writing.

                                      I give it a solid 4.5 stars. A whole lot of fun!

                                      4 out of 5 stars What ho!.......2007-05-20

                                      Although "The Inimitable Jeeves" is not the first appearance of the famous double act, Jeeves and Wooster, it is the first book to be 'completely' dedicated to them. It was first published in 1923, and was originally known in America as, simply, "Jeeves".

                                      The book is set in the 1920s England and features Wodehouse's best known creations : Bertie Wooster and his valet, Jeeves. Bertie is the book's wealthy, good-natured and rather dim narrator. He's a member of the "idle rich" and, rather than having to work for a living, lives off an allowance provided by his uncle. He spends much of his time in the bar-room of the Drones Club, is fond of the occasional wager and has an appalling dress sense. Luckily, Bertie has Jeeves to look after him. Without Jeeves, Bertie's life would be a mess : he makes an excellent hangover cure, his bets usually win and he's intelligent enough to rescue Bertie from nearly any situation. He disapproves of Bertie's more garish items of clothing, and will - occasionally - take it upon himself to deal with the offending item.

                                      All of the short stories are connected and most of them involve Bertie's friend Bingo Little, who is always falling in love - occasionally while still 'officially' in love with another. It's Bingo who most consistently drops Bertie into trouble : Bingo's schemes generally aim for an increase in his allowance from his Uncle, with the intention of marrying his latest girlfriend. Generally, Bingo's intended is a girl his uncle wouldn't approve of - so he ropes Bertie and Jeeves into helping him out. There are also appearances for Bertie's troublesome cousins, Claude and Eustace, a devious bookmaker called Steggles and Bertie's fearsome Aunt Agatha. Bertie is held in very low esteem by Agatha, but she is determined that Bertie should marry - Bertie's opinion, as far as she is concerned, is irrelevant.

                                      A very easy and enjoyable read.

                                      Delightful listening especially on a long car trip. Reader is excellent. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys the sillyness of Wodehouse.

                                      The Inimitable Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse can best be described in one simple word: FUN. Fortunatley, by surfing Amazon and its denizens fine reviews, I was able to stumble on this fine author. My interest was piqued by the reviews I read, so I decided to give the Jeeves and Wooster series a try. I began with season one of the televised Wooster and Jeeves and was thoroughly impressed. I then read this delightful book, after reading some short stories. This book is great fun and features the warm, sometimes competetive, relationship between Bertie Wooster and his "inimitable" valet Jeeves. With much help from supporting players. Especially the goofball Bingo, this book features a variety of light stories all brought together. Do yourself a favor, like I did, join the many fans of this great author and these fun characters. 5 Stars!

                                      I have heard that few writers had put more effort into trying to be funny than Wodehouse. Few writers have put more studied effort, and weighing of every word for maximum hilarity. Wodehouse is good but there is a forced quality that does not seem as natural as others like Saki. Some jokes just get wrung out for everything they are worth - jovial flavors of feeling just sap out. Wodehouse was, apparently, a work-horse of a writer but there is nothing deep in him which on the other hand makes him an easy read and one can be certain that his words are well chosen. On the other hand if you agree with Wilfred Sheed, who in the forward to "Leave it to Psmith", classified Wodehouse along with Gilbert and Sullivan as anti artist artists.
                                      Anti artist artists were born something out of a reaction to English public opinion against Byron and Shelley and their questionable views and lifestyles. Their motive is to knock high ideals off their perspective horses. While Europe was taking art seriously, maybe too seriously, with rebellious Wagnerian operas and psychological probings of Flauberts and Prousts and such the English were being amused by Gilbert and Sullivan and other entertainment of high silliness.
                                      The stories really qualify for the realm of science fiction and are mildly funny.
                                      If you are interested in finding the book of stories that the TV series of "Jeeves and Wooster" was largely based on this is it.
                                      If you like this you might also like the "Short Stories of Noel Coward" maybe even better.

                                                    This Audiofy audiobook chip packs Frederick Davidson's full 7 hour reading of "The Inimitable Jeeves" on a tiny memory card. A single Audiofy audiobook chip, hardly larger than a stamp, holds a complete digital audiobook, and saves the last listening position automatically, unlike CDs. With an SD memory card slot or low-cost adapter - like those for digital cameras - this Audiofy audiobook chip can be played on Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh desktop computers or laptops (Microsoft Windows XP/2000/Me/98, or Apple Mac OS X 10.3.9 and above) or transferred to Apple iPod media players. Audiobook chips also move seamlessly to most Palm OS and Pocket PC handheld PDAs with SD expansion slots, as well as Treo and Windows Mobile "smartphones" (Palm OS 5.2 or Windows Mobile 2002 and above)... Bertie gets into trouble when one of his pals starts to fall in love with every second girl he lays his eyes on. But the soup gets really thick when Bingo decides to marry one of them and enlists Bertie's help. Luckily, he has the inimitable Jeeves to pull him out of it.

                                                    Listening to the Frederick Davidson readings of the Jeeves books is the best way of experiencing them. The characters literally come alive before one's ears. Mr. Davidson slips in and out of a character and an accent like some sort of linguistic chameleon. The effect is, to put it mildly, incredible, especially to our American ears unaccustomed to the rich variety of dialects in British English. One is practically whisked away to a 1920's London that's inhabited by a cast of zany characters. The stories themselves are hilarious and quite clever, poking fun at the lifestyle antics of England's idle rich.

                                                    I have heard this recording, not on audiobook chips, but on audiobooks, and I highly recommend it. The reading is excellent and the text is funny.
