Gopal Sharma

Summary

Build high-performance, scalable, and resilient systems using Python and Kafka.Key Features● Learn EDA fundamentals with real-world use case examples.● Master Kafka and Python to build event-driven applications.● Build secure, testable, and observable EDA-based systems.● Step-by-step design and hands-on coding for core EDA parts.Book DescriptionPython’s simplicity and flexibility, combined with Apache Kafka’s high-throughput, fault-tolerant messaging system, make them a powerful duo for building scalable, event-driven applications. Ultimate Event-Driven Architecture with Python and Apache Kafka brings together these two technologies to help developers and architects design modern, asynchronous systems capable of handling real-time data at scale.The book begins by introducing the fundamentals of Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), including its core principles, benefits, and real-world relevance. It then explores the essential components of an EDA system, guiding readers through design patterns, message flow, and architectural considerations. Security, testing, and observability are covered in depth to ensure robust and reliable systems.Later chapters dive into Apache Kafka concepts and demonstrate how to build and deploy practical, real-world solutions using Python. Hands-on examples and a complete use case walk-through ensure that readers can confidently apply what they’ve learned in production scenarios.Whether you're modernizing legacy systems or architecting from scratch, this book equips you to build event-driven systems that are scalable, resilient, and future-ready.

Psychogeography

Merlin Coverley

Psychogeography. In recent years this term has been used to illustrate a bewildering array of ideas from ley lines and the occult, to urban walking and political radicalism. But where does it come from and what exactly does it mean? 
 
This book examines the origins of psychogeography in the Paris of the 1950s, exploring the theoretical background and its political application in the work of Guy Debord and the Situationists. Psychogeography continues to find retrospective validation in much earlier traditions, from the visionary writing of William Blake and Thomas De Quincey to the rise of the flâneur and the avant-garde experimentatin of the Surrealists. These precursors to psychogeography are discussed here alongside their modern counterparts, for today these ideas hold greater currency than ever through the popularity of writers and filmmakers such as Iain Sinclair, Will Self and Patrick Keiller. 
 
From the urban wanderer to the armchair traveller, psychogeography provides us with new ways of experiencing our environment, transforming the familiar streets of our everyday experience into something new and unexpected. Merlin Coverley conducts the reader through this process, providing an explanation of the terms involved and an analysis of the key figures and their works. 
 
'This little book does exactly what an introduction should; it examines, explains, and whets the appetite' TELEGRAPH  
 
'An excellent overview of a tradition that can be tricky to pin down and a great portal for loads of further reading' HUGH MARWOOD 
 
'This succinct book is a definite first port of call for anyone interested in this most esoteric of theories. A portmanteau of information, a pin-pointing of Psychogeography's literary impact and standing, and a stimulating read' 3:AM MAGAZINE

Unrepeatable Beauty: Inner...

Lena Elisabet

Unrepeatable Beauty is a ceremonial invitation to recalibrate how we understand health, empowerment, and the female body. 
It dismantles the emotional architecture behind breast cancer— 
not through confrontation, but through clarity. 
This edition names what medicine often misses: 
• That breasts are not burden baskets 
• That emotional labor is not invisible 
• That sovereignty is not a side effect 
Through poetic diagnostics, mythic insight, and scroll-grade witnessing, Lena Elisabet invites readers to explore: 
• The biology of belief and the science of emotional containment 
• The cultural script of survival, gratitude, and reconstruction 
• The financial architecture of the breast cancer industry 
• The possibility that joy, boundaries, and inner radiance may prevent disease before it begins 
This is not a guide to surviving. 
It’s a guide to not collapsing in the first place. 
Can female empowerment and sovereignty cure breast cancer before it develops? 
This book doesn’t answer the question. 
It dignifies it.
