  Noncommissioned officers stand as the backbone of the United States Marine Corps. The Corps is among the most lasting institutions in America, though few understand what makes it so strong and how that understanding can be applied effectively in today's world. In this insightful and thoroughly researched book, Julia Dye explores the cadre of noncommissioned officers that make up the Marine Corps' system of small-unit leadership. To help us better understand what makes these extraordinary men and women such effective leaders, Dye examines the fourteen leadership traits embraced by every NCO. These qualities--including judgment, enthusiasm, determination, bearing, and unselfishness--are exemplified by men like Terry Anderson, the former Marine sergeant who spent nearly seven years as a hostage in Beirut, John Basilone, the hero of the Pacific, and many others. To assemble this extraordinary chronicle, Julia Dye interviewed Anderson and dozens of other Marines, mining a rich trove of historical and modern NCO heroes that comprise the Marine Corps' astonishing legacy, from its founding in 1775 to the present day. 
  "Few people have the privilege of serving as a noncommissioned officer in the U.S. Marine Corps, but anyone who is interested in leading the kind of purpose-driven and values-centered life that marks the best Marine NCOs can learn from this book. And anyone in the business of leading people--whether it's in business, the classroom, or the playing field--should study the men and women Dye writes about with such insight. These NCOs don't just teach young Marines; they have a great deal to teach anyone smart enough to read, listen, and learn." 
  --Ed Ruggero, author of The First Men In: US Paratroopers and the Fight to Save D-Day

  This book consists of two titles, which are the following: 
  1 - An introduction to databases involves understanding their role in storing, organizing, and managing data. Databases are structured collections of data that enable efficient retrieval, insertion, updating, and deletion of information. They serve as the foundation for various applications, from simple contact lists to complex enterprise systems. Key concepts include tables, which organize data into rows and columns; relationships, which define connections between tables; and SQL (Structured Query Language), used to interact with databases by querying and manipulating data. 
  2 - Operating systems (OS) are like the conductors of a digital orchestra, managing hardware resources, providing a user interface, and running applications. They handle tasks like memory management, process scheduling, and file management, ensuring smooth operation of a device. Different OS types, like Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile OS like iOS and Android, cater to various devices and user needs. Understanding their role helps appreciate how our devices function seamlessly.

  Fluid Dynamics - Principles and...

  Fluid dynamics is a branch of physics that deals with the behavior of fluids (liquids and gases) in motion. It is a fundamental subject in engineering, physics, and applied sciences, playing a crucial role in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, energy, and environmental studies. Understanding how fluids move and interact with their surroundings helps engineers and scientists design efficient systems, predict natural phenomena, and develop innovative technologies. 
  At its core, fluid dynamics is governed by a set of fundamental principles derived from classical mechanics and thermodynamics. These include the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. The governing equations, such as the Navier-Stokes equations, describe the motion of fluids by relating forces, pressure, velocity, and viscosity. The study of fluid dynamics is essential for solving real-world problems, from designing aircraft wings and optimizing fuel injection systems to predicting weather patterns and ocean currents. 
  Fluids can exhibit different types of motion depending on external forces, constraints, and their physical properties. A key distinction in fluid dynamics is between laminar flow and turbulent flow. Laminar flow is characterized by smooth, orderly fluid layers, whereas turbulent flow is chaotic and involves complex mixing and vortices. The Reynolds number, a dimensionless quantity, helps determine whether a flow will be laminar or turbulent based on factors like velocity, viscosity, and characteristic length.
