2002 | pages: 598 | ISBN: 0201708523 | PDF | 3,7 mb

This is the.NET book C++ developers have been waiting for: a meaty, practical guide to Visual Studio.NET programming from one of the world"s leading authorities on Microsoft development. Best-selling COM/ATL author Richard Grimes begins by reviewing the fundamental concepts that underlie the .NET Runtime, including managed vs. unmanaged code, garbage collection, the Microsoft Intermediate Language, type information, and metadata. Next, Grimes introduces the .NET Class Libraries — first at a high level, and then with far greater detail about the libraries that will be of greatest value. Grimes covers contexts and remoting, introducing serialization, marshalling, channels and SOAP, and the role of Web services as an interoperability mechanism. Once readers are solidly grounded in .NET, Grimes turns to Visual Studio.NET: its facilities, tools, and project structure, ranging from project management issues to Web discovery. In Part III, Grimes offers comprehensive coverage of using Visual Studio.NET to build advanced applications. He presents detailed coverage of managed C++ written for experienced C++ developers; a thorough walkthrough of C++ development with WinForms designed to help developers migrate from Win32; extensive coverage of Microsoft"s ATL Server and web application/service development; and finally, a full chapter on debugging. For every experienced Windows developer familiar with Visual C++.

Developing the Dead: Mediumship and Selfhood in Cuban Espiritismo

Diana Espirito Santo, "Developing the Dead: Mediumship and Selfhood in Cuban Espiritismo"


2015 | ISBN-10: 0813060788 | 304 pages | PDF | 2 MB

Despite its powerful influence on Cuban culture, Espiritismo has often been overlooked by scholars. Developing the Dead is the first in-depth exploration of contemporary Espiritismo in Cuba. Based on extensive fieldwork among religious practitioners and their clients in Havana, this book makes the surprising claim that Spiritist practices are fundamentally a project of developing the self. When mediums cultivate relationships between the living and the dead, argues Diana EspYrito Santo, they develop, learn, sense, dream, and connect to multiple spirits (muertos), expanding the borders of the self. This understanding of selfhood is radically different fromEnlightenment ideas of an autonomous, bounded self and holds fascinating implications for prophecy, healing, and self-consciousness. Developing the Dead shows how EspiritismoAEs self-making process permeates all aspects of life, not only for its own practitioners but also for those of other Afro-Cuban religions.
