 Wirfs-Brock and her co-worker McKean outline a set of software
development practices she devised to design objects with specific
roles, known as responsibility-driven design. Her approach involves
selecting candidate objects for the design model, defining the
responsibilities of an object, and designating the control centers of
an application. Later chapters in the book explore options for
documenting a design, present strategies for handling exceptions and
recovering from errors, and discuss how to characterize software
variations If you create software using object-oriented languages and tools,
then Responsibility-Driven Design has likely influenced your work. For
over ten years Responsibility-Driven Design methodology has been the
standard bearer of the behavioral approach to designing object-oriented
software. Object Design: Roles, Responsibilities, and Collaborations
focuses on the practice of designing objects as integral members of a
community where each object has specific roles and responsibilities.
The authors present the latest practices and techniques of
Responsibility-Driven Design and show how you can apply them as you
develop modern object-based applications. Originally published in 1936

The human body is the hardest thing to sketch, and of its parts, the head and hands are most intimidating. Loomis found a way to bring these challenges into the realm of the achievable for amateurs, with a text that, while a bit old fashioned in style, feeds the drawing brain. As a bonus, Loomis' own pieces, particularly the finished sketches, are deeply satisfying to view. To be sure, the style is genre-past, but the evocation is sweet, recent, and wholly American. One can see in the sketched heads the tender, yearbook faces of our parents now aged or departed. Book in spanish, for engineers and freaks, enjoy it!
The main subject of this book is IA, its a very intersting reading.
Aunque los capítulos del libro de Penrose recorren la teoría de la relatividad, la mecánica
cuántica y la cosmología, su interés principal radica en lo que los filósofos llaman el "problema
mente-cuerpo". Durante décadas los defensores de la "IA (Inteligencia Artificial) fuerte" han
intentado convencernos de que sólo es cuestión de uno o dos siglos (algunos hablan incluso decincuenta años), para que las computadoras electrónicas hagan todo lo que la mente humana puede hacer. Estimulados por lecturas juveniles de ciencia-ficción y convencidos de que nuestras mentes son simplemente "computadoras hechas de carne" (como Marvin Minsky dijo en cierta ocasión), dan por supuesto que el placer y el dolor, el gusto por la belleza, el sentido del humor, la conciencia y el libre albedrío son cualidades que emergerán de modo natural cuando el comportamiento algorítmico de los robots electrónicos llegue a ser suficientemente complejo.

 This provocative work provides a radical reassessment of the emergence and nature of Christian sexual morality, the dominant moral paradigm in Western society since late antiquity. While many scholars, including Michel Foucault, have found the basis of early Christian sexual restrictions in Greek ethics and political philosophy, Kathy L. Gaca demonstrates on compelling new grounds that it is misguided to regard Greek ethics and political theory--with their proposed reforms of eroticism, the family, and civic order--as the foundation of Christian sexual austerity. Rather, in this thoroughly informed and wide-ranging study, Gaca shows that early Christian goals to eradicate fornication were derived from the sexual rules and poetic norms of the Septuagint, or Greek Bible, and that early Christian writers adapted these rules and norms in ways that reveal fascinating insights into the distinctive and largely non-philosophical character of Christian sexual morality. |
