Buy Sparingly Used Books At Amazing Rates!
Globally, hardbound books are released mostly ahead of popular paperback editions by major publishers. They do so to maximize their profits as these hardbound books are priced quite steep in comparison to the popular Paperbacks. However, in certain cases, they do release in mass market paperback editions; in cases where the paperbacks are by renowned authors like Jeffery Archer or John Grisham or Sidney Sheldon, whose books are the most sought after the world over in huge volumes. And yet their profits remain the same as found on the sales of hardbound books.
Internationally, new books are priced very high in comparison to the third world countries like India, where they are priced at half or even lesser rates comparatively. In spite of this, people in India prefer to wait for a paperback edition of a book for a few months because they are cheaper. This demonstrates the consumer psychology behind buying books. They don’t consider books a highly essential commodity and so books maintain low priority on perceived shopping needs’ list of a consumer. Customers belonging to the higher middle class & above visit a bookstore for an experience of world class books’ shopping.
India has a growing middle class population, with the largest English speaking customers who aspire to buy good books but are hesitant to buy them at MRP from Bookstore Chains due to budgets constraints. This is where Online bookstores come as a respite for such value-for-money hunters. Online book stores offer to its Indian customers, a wide assortment of good quality used books imported from the U.K. To cater to the demand of good quality used books here in India, books are brought from UK. Book readers in U.K generally tend to handle books with care. Later, these books are sold off as second-hand books or used books. The quality remains superior in comparison to a book handled by an average Indian book reader.
Moreover, in India, used books sold off in flea markets or off the pavements, are re-sold manifold by the street vendors which means more wear and tear. Hence, it makes sense in buying good quality used books imported from the U.K – sparingly used and sold at 80% discount, as compared to new books. Then, why buy a new book at 20 – 30% discount when you can get the same but used at only 20% of the actual price? There are a few online book stores that offer used books on par with new books mostly sold by vendors charging exorbitant rates. They have a hand-picked range of selected Best-selling authors for a better reading experience; all at affordable rates for its esteemed customers.
Buy more to build your own library by collecting best-selling used books at only a fraction of the price of new copies. Wish you all bookworms out there a very happy collecting & reading this Summer.

Excerpt: Razor gangs were criminal gangs that dominated the Sydney crime scene in the 1920s. The choice of razors as preferred weapons reflected laws imposing severe penalties for carrying concealed firearms, and the capacity of razors to inflict disfiguring scars. The two major razor gangs were associated with prominent madams, Kate Leigh and Tilly Devine . Political metaphor The term razor gang has been subsequently used in Australian politics as a nickname for a group of Cabinet ministers charged with cutting government spending. It was first used in this sense in the early 1980s in association with the Fraser government. Kevin Rudd used the term during the 2007 election and it has been widely applied to Labor Party cost-cutting. References (URLs online) A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at … |

3D User Interfaces with Java 3D $128.4 Readers learn how to incorporate the 3D user interface for next-generation business needs, such as mass customization and online sales, and even scientific visualization and gaming. Provided are a conceptual framework for 3D user techniques and a Java 3D framework that demonstrates many of the 3D techniques. Reviews an overview of some of the techniques used in mapping the 3D virtual environment to the 2D screen….provides a high level discussion of user interface design considerations and concepts. It explores where using 3D in a GUI can enhance the usability of software and what the options are for enabling the user to navigate the virtual 3D universe using the common input devices…does well at providing a balanced discussion of how Java 3D, in its current release, can be used to implement graphical user interfaces. Overall, the book presents itself as somewhat academic in nature but does well at providing a balanced discussion of how Java 3D, in its current release, can be used to implement graphical user interfaces. (Rated 4 out of 5) Adrian Hibbert, British Computer Society member and Senior Systems Developer I was struck by Jon’s understanding that 3D is not a goal but rather a tool for making applications potentially better. In other words just because an application is 3D it is not necessarily superior. This is an excellent and important point. Jon Barrilleaux clearly is an intelligent and experienced software developer. …[He] should be given a standing ovation for producing such an excellent piece of work for a topic (Java 3D) that desperately needs more documentation.

Every evening he told her that anybody with ordinary gumption ought to realize that night air was bad for the human frame. The human frame won't stand everything, Miss Perry, he warned her, resentfully. Even a child, if it had just ordinary gumption, ought to know enough not to let the night air blow on sick people yes, nor well people, either!

Barack, Inc. $19.99 What can business leaders learn from Barack Obama's improbable victory? A great deal, says this brief, readable book, which spells out the lessons of the Obama campaign and goes on to illustrate them, citing companies that have used similar techniques to succeed. Obama ran a nearly flawless campaign that stayed on message, attracted tens of thousands of dedicated volunteers, and collected a record flood of dollars from donors large and small. But his triumph was also to use social networking to create a vast online community that has changed politics forever. And that's precisely what businesses need to do. In a soundbyte, Obama's threefold approach was (1) to keep his cool, (2) to apply to politics the social technologies of the Internet, including blogs, texting, and viral videos, and (3) to embody in himself the change that he meant to bring to the country. None of these goals are as simple as they sound. Barack, Inc., not only spells them out clearly but offers actionable lessons that businesspeople can apply, beginning tomorrow. Change has become a tired political clich , but Obama gave it new life by persuading a solid majority of voters that he could lead them to a whole new kind of politics and government, transcending the petty partisanship of recent years. And he himself embodied that change. We are the ones we've been waiting for, he told his rallies. We are the change we seek. . . . Let's go change the world. Just so, says this important book, business leaders must embrace change and become the change they offer. Only then will their constituencies -- shareholders, employees, suppliers, customers -- follow them to achieve it. But having done that, their companies will have become communities -- and the authors tell us that community, in addition to products and profits, is what business is about in the Web 2.0 world of the 21st century. |

Black Beauty $12.95 Purchase one of 1st World Library's Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - The first place that I can well remember was a large pleasant meadow with a pond of clear water in it. Some shady trees leaned over it, and rushes and water-lilies grew at the deep end. Over the hedge on one side we looked into a plowed field, and on the other we looked over a gate at our master's house, which stood by the roadside; at the top of the meadow was a grove of fir trees, and at the bottom a running brook overhung by a steep bank. While I was young I lived upon my mother's milk, as I could not eat grass. In the daytime I ran by her side, and at night I lay down close by her. When it was hot we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees, and when it was cold we had a nice warm shed near the grove. |

Excerpt: Chadian literature has suffered greatly from the turmoil which has engulfed the country, economical and political. As with many cultures, literature in Chad began with folk tales and legends. While French is the dominant language, Arabic is also used by some Chadian writers. Chadian literature is more prevalent in France than in Chad itself, due to market demand and the repressive culture present in Chad. Chad”s only literary critic, Ahmat Taboye, wrote Anthologie de la littrature tchadienne in 2003 to spread knowledge of Chadian literature. Though there are not very many well-known Chadian writers, there are a few, including Joseph Brahim Sed, Baba Moustapha, Antoine Bangui and Koulsy Lamko. … More: http://booksllc.net/?id=13500074 |

Classroom Assessment: What Teachers Need to Know $123.98 I have an extremely high opinion of this textbook. This is the only assessment text I have ever used that students actually read consistently. Students frequently comment about their enjoyment of the text and their appreciation for the humor injected throughout the chapters. Marcy Blackburn, Cameron University The topics are presented very clearly, are very well organized, and are sufficiently comprehensive for pre-service teachers. Brian C. McKevitt, Iowa State University Written in Jim Popham’s characteristic witty style, the Fourth Edition of Classroom Assessment addresses the range of assessments that teachers are likely to use in their classrooms. The forces of accountability have changed educational assessment and this new edition now addresses the central issue of how classroom assessment can effectively benefit students when carried out in the context of accountability tests. New legislation such as the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) and issues such as state standards that directly impact classroom testing and teaching, are discussed to present readers with a series of practical action options. In addition, the text continues to analyze more traditional topics such as validity and reliability and discusses the alternative assessments used in today’s classrooms.

Collaborative Software $67.87 Collaborative software (also referred to as groupware or workgroup support systems) is software designed to help people involved in a common task achieve their goals. Collaborative software is the basis for computer supported cooperative work. Such software systems as email, calendaring, text chat, wiki, and bookmarking belong to this category. It has been suggested that Metcalfe”s law – the more people who use something, the more valuable it becomes – applies to such software. The more general term social software applies to systems used outside the workplace, for example, online dating services and social networks like Friendster, Twitter and Facebook. The study of computer-supported collaboration includes the study of this software and social phenomena associated with it. |

Computerized Monitoring and Online Privacy $68.6 Increasingly, computers are a part of even the most ordinary and simple aspects of human existence. Computers have changed forever how we work, learn, shop and seek information. They have also, since the 1960s, been programmed to monitor and analyze in various ways the interaction between humans and themselves. The rapid development of the World Wide Web in the 1990s has given new life, direction and urgency to this enterprise. This work describes the myriad ways, benign or malign, in which computers are used to monitor peoples use of computers. Four distinct contexts for monitoring are examined: formal learning environments (e.g., educational software); information seeking environments (e.g., online library catalogs); the workplace; and the Internet (e.g., online shopping). Computerized monitoring often is called an invasion of privacy, and the conceptual and ethical dimensions of confidentiality and privacy in virtual environments are explored at length. In addition to providing information about the various computerized monitoring tools and techniques, this work focuses on the broader social, conceptual, ethical and legal implications. |

Consensus is usually defined as meaning both general agreement and the process of getting to such agreement. Consensus decision making is thus concerned primarily with that process.

Democracy in the Digital Age $75.43 Democracy in the Digital Age is a fascinating philosophical exploration of how the emerging information and communication technologies are impacting political participation in the United States. Rather than being the antidote to democratic ills, the political conversations occurring online are neither inclusive nor deliberative, suggesting that new technologies, as currently designed and used, are as much threats to progress as they are vehicles of progress. Wilhelm finds that there is often an appearance of progress, but negligible advancement of the human condition. He discusses the four features of digitally-mediated political life (resources, inclusiveness, deliberation, and design) and demonstrates the need for a strong public policy. |
