Book Description
Useful for Campus Recruitments, UGC-NET and Competitive Examinations— ISRO, DRDO, HAL, BARC, ONGC, NTPC, RRB, BHEL, MTNL, GAIL and Others 28 Years’ GATE Topic-wise Problems and Solutions In today’s competitive scenario, where there is a mushrooming of universities and engineering colleges, the only yardstick to analyze the caliber of engineering students is the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE). It is one of the recognized national level examination that demands focussed study along with forethought, systematic planning and exactitude. Postgraduate Engineering Common Entrance Test (PGECET) is also one of those examinations, a student has to face to get admission in various postgraduate programs. So, in order to become up to snuff for this eligibility clause (qualifying GATE/PGECET), a student facing a very high competition should excel his/her standards to success by way of preparing from the standard books. This book guides students via simple, elegant and explicit presentation that blends theory logically and rigorously with the practical aspects bearing on computer science and information technology. The book not only keeps abreast of all the chapterwise information generally asked in the examinations but also proffers felicitous tips in the furtherance of problem-solving technique. Various cardinal landmarks pertaining to the subject such as theory of computation, compiler design, digital logic design, computer organisation and architecture, computer networks, database management system, operating system, web technology, software engineering, C programming, data structure, design and analysis of algorithms along with general aptitude verbal ability, non-verbal aptitude, basic mathematics and discrete mathematics are now under a single umbrella. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE BOOK • Systematic discussion of concepts endowed with ample illustrations • Adequate study material suffused with pointwise style to enhance learning ability • Notes are incorporated at several places giving additional information on the key concepts • Inclusion of solved practice exercises for verbal and numerical aptitude to guide the students from practice and examination point of view • Points to ponder are provided in between for a quick recap before examination • Prodigious objective-type questions based on the GATE examination from 1987 to 2014 along with in-depth explanation for each solution from stem to stern • Every solution lasts with a reference, thus providing a scope for further study • Two sample papers for GATE 2015 are incorporated along with answer keys WHAT THE REVIEWERS SAY “Professor Dasaradh has significantly prepared each and every solution of the questions appeared in GATE and other competitive examinations and many individuals from the community have devoted their time to proofread and improve the quality of the solutions so that they become very lucid for the reader. I personally find this book very useful and only one of its kind in the market because this book gives complete analysis of the chapterwise questions based on the previous years’ examination. Moreover, all solutions are fully explained, with a reference to the concerned book given after each solution. It definitely helps in the elimination of redundant topics which are not important from examination point of view. So, the students will be able to reduce the volume of text matter to be studied. Besides, solutions are presented in lucid and understandable language for an average student.” —Dr. T. Venugopal, Associate Professor, Department of CSE, JNTUH, Jagtial “Overall, I think this book represents an extremely valuable and unique contribution to the competitive field because it captures a wealth of GATE/PGECET examination’s preparation experience in a compact and reusable form. This book is certainly one that I shall turn into a regular practice for all entrance examinations’ preparation guides. This book will change the way of preparation for all competitive examinations.” —Professor L.V.N. Prasad, CEO, Vardhaman College of Engineering, Hyderabad “I began to wish that someone would compile all the important abstracting information into one reference, as the need for a single reference book for aspirants had become even more apparent. I have been thinking about this project for several years, as I have conducted many workshops and training programs. This book is full of terms, phrases, examples and other key information as well as guidelines that will be helpful not only for the students or the young engineers but also for the instructors.” —Professor R. Muraliprasad, Professional Trainer, GATE/IES/PSU, Hyderabad The book, which will prove to be an epitome of learning the concepts of CS and IT for GATE/PGECET examination, is purely intended for the aspirants of GATE and PGECET examinations. It should also be of considerable utility and worth to the aspirants of UGC-NET as well as to those who wish to pursue career in public sector units like ONGC, NTPC, ISRO, BHEL, BARC, DRDO, DVC, Power-grid, IOCL and many more. In addition, the book is also of immense use for the placement coordinators of GATE/PGECET.

Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

“A gloriously over-the-top scare fest that has hidden depths. Readers will root for Kris all the way to the explosive, poignant finale.”—Publishers Weekly From the New York Times best-selling author of The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires. Only a girl with a guitar can save us all. Every morning, Kris Pulaski wakes up in hell. In the 1990s she was lead guitarist of Dürt Würk, a heavy-metal band on the brink of breakout success until lead singer Terry Hunt embarked on a solo career and rocketed to stardom, leaving his bandmates to rot in obscurity. Now Kris works as night manager of a Best Western; she’s tired, broke, and unhappy. Then one day everything changes—a shocking act of violence turns her life upside down, and she begins to suspect that Terry sabotaged more than just the band. Kris hits the road, hoping to reunite Dürt Würk and confront the man who ruined her life. Her journey will take her from the Pennsylvania rust belt to a celebrity rehab center to a satanic music festival. A spine-tingling horror novel, We Sold Our Souls is an epic journey into the heart of a conspiracy-crazed, pill-popping, paranoid country that seems to have lost its very soul.

Savoring the Camino de Santiago

Book Description
"Savoring the Camino de Santiago: It's the Pilgrimage, Not the Hike" focuses on the Camino de Santiago, an ancient pilgrimage trail that began around 820 AD and that traverses Spain, ending in Santiago de Compostela, the burial place of St. James the apostle. A resurrection of interest in the Camino since the 1980s has meant that more than 300,000 individuals are nowadays undertaking the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela each year. The author made the pilgrimage in 2016 via the French route from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, a journey of some 500 miles. Her book incorporates a blog and travel journal she kept during that pilgrimage, with an illustration accompanying each of the 49 days of the journey. The book is also a memoir, with Ms. Connor explaining how and why she decided to make the pilgrimage. "Savoring the Camino de Santiago" offers practical advice for those interested in traveling the Camino. While the prevailing culture of the Camino is to walk the route, Ms. Connor believes that walking is not the only way to undertake the Camino. Taking buses, taxis, or even driving are also valid ways to experience the Camino, in her opinion. She advocates for pilgrims to slow down and savor the pilgrimage by stopping in churches, cathedrals, museums, and interesting towns and cities along the route. Not everyone experiences spiritual or personal growth through the act of walking; Ms. Connor urges pilgrims to take the trip in the manner that will most conn0ect them with their spiritual, religious, and transcendent well springs. After completing the pilgrimage, the author journeyed on to Madrid and Toledo, and there are chapters in the book covering those visits. Ms. Connor also recounts activities following the journey related to the Camino, such as writing an open letter to relevant governmental authorities in Spain and hosting a thank-you dinner in Houston for those who helped her plan and organize her pilgrimage. The book includes a useful chapter on resources and an index. "Savoring the Camino de Santiago" won the eLit silver medal for travel.

The book is also a memoir, with Ms. Connor explaining how and why she decided to make the pilgrimage. "Savoring the Camino de Santiago" offers practical advice for those interested in traveling the Camino. While the prevailing culture of the Camino is to walk the route, Ms. Connor believes that walking is not the only way to undertake the Camino. Taking buses, taxis, or even driving are also valid ways to experience the Camino, in her opinion. She advocates for pilgrims to slow down and savor the pilgrimage by stopping in churches, cathedrals, museums, and interesting towns and cities along the route. Not everyone experiences spiritual or personal growth through the act of walking; Ms. Connor urges pilgrims to take the trip in the manner that will most conn0ect them with their spiritual, religious, and transcendent well springs. After completing the pilgrimage, the author journeyed on to Madrid and Toledo, and there are chapters in the book covering those visits. Ms. Connor also recounts activities following the journey related to the Camino, such as writing an open letter to relevant governmental authorities in Spain and hosting a thank-you dinner in Houston for those who helped her plan and organize her pilgrimage. The book includes a useful chapter on resources and an index. "Savoring the Camino de Santiago" won the eLit silver medal for travel.
