Synopsis

"Awk Programming in Practice""Awk Programming in Practice" is the definitive guide for mastering the Awk language in both foundational and advanced data processing environments. Beginning with an in-depth exploration of Awk’s execution model, syntax, and stream-oriented paradigm, the book establishes a strong baseline for readers seeking to leverage Awk’s core strengths in text transformation and pattern-based automation. The structured approach covers everything from lexical essentials and dynamic typing to scoping, ensuring that newcomers build robust mental models, while experienced users can refine their understanding of complex program design.The book then delves into advanced text processing capabilities, showcasing Awk’s power in record splitting, regular expression matching, and multi-level data filtering. Readers are led through best practices for constructing sophisticated pipelines, formatting output in diverse file formats, and managing real-world data irregularities. Subsequent chapters address high-performance data structures, state management across records, algorithmic patterns, and the critical art of profiling and tuning for scalability—making this book indispensable for those tackling large-scale data workflows.Expanding beyond core language features, "Awk Programming in Practice" addresses topics essential for today’s professionals and enterprise practitioners: custom functions and modular code organization, systems integration, parallel processing, and network interaction. Advanced chapters provide pragmatic guidance on security and compliance, interoperability with databases and modern toolchains, real-world enterprise and scientific applications, and a comprehensive survey of the Awk ecosystem and future trends. With its blend of theoretical depth and applied patterns, this book is a vital resource for engineers, data scientists, and system administrators committed to effective, modern Awk programming.

Original Works by Dr Buteyko and...

Artour Rakhimov

This thought-provoking collection of original material, translated from Russian includes interviews with Dr. Buteyko covering the development of his ideas from 1962 to 1998 and his main CEOB (Conscious Elimination of Deep Breathing) manual. It is important because it provides insight into the power of his method when used by trained practitioners, especially in a clinical setting.
He saw breathing as a fundamental measurable parameter in the treatment of 150 common diseases and because of his disciplined scientific research he never allowed it to be considered simply an alternative asthma treatment' as it is often now perceived in the West. With trained practitioners and Breathing clinics it would result in a profound improvement in the health of millions of people suffering from many different conditions throughout the world.
Here is a summary of the main chapters:
1. 1962 interview while he was Head of a functional Diagnostics laboratory within the Siberian branch of the USSR Academy of Science.
2. 1982 interview covers the development of his theoretical ideas and practical work in further detail.
3. Large practical guide (CEOB Breath Retraining Manual) showing his systematic approach to 'the Conscious Elimination of Deep Breathing' in sick patients in a clinical setting.
4. 1997 Buteyko answers questions by callers on a public radio program.
5. Interview with a Siberian newspaper in 1998 when he was 75 where he talks about his work and medical and spiritual perspective.
6. Interview on Ukrainian Television in the late 1980s with a detailed restating of his work where he advocates for breathing retraining centers in Ukraine and Russia.
The book's approximate length is 35,000 words.

Hidden in the Heavens - How the...

Jason Steffen

Are we alone in the universe? It's a fundamental question for Earth-dwelling humankind. Are there other worlds like ours, out there somewhere? In Hidden in the Heavens, Jason Steffen, a former scientist on NASA's Kepler mission, describes how that mission searched for planets orbiting Sun-like stars—especially Earth-like planets circulating in Earth-like orbits. What the Kepler space telescope found, Steffen reports, contradicted centuries of theoretical and observational work and transformed our understanding of planets, planetary systems, and the stars they orbit. Kepler discovered thousands of planets orbiting distant stars—a bewildering variety of celestial bodies, including rocky planets being vaporized by the intense heat of their host star; super-Earths and sub-Neptunes; gas giants several times the size and mass of Jupiter; and planets orbiting in stellar systems that had only been imagined in science fiction. 
 
 
 
Steffen offers a unique, inside account of the work of the Kepler science team (and the sometimes chaotic interactions among team members), mapping the progress of the mission from the launch of the rocket that carried Kepler into space to the revelations of the data that began to flow to the supercomputer back at NASA—evidence of strange new worlds unlike anything found in our own solar system.

Lite is Dangerous -...

Henriette Chardak

In 6,000 food products, aspartame is found everywhere in so-called diet nutrition. However, several scientific studies show that this sweetener is harmful for children, pregnant women and epileptics. Used to replace sugar and reduce the caloric intake of food, aspartame actually works in the opposite direction, it develops obesity and diabetes. In this first in-depth investigation of the diet industry, Henriette Chardak exposes a health scandal. She shows why the use of aspartame continues despite the risks it generates. How people were pushed into consuming these chemical substances—whose harmlessness had been questioned for many years. Between Chicago and Tokyo, top-secret files and complacency of the authorities, the author offers us a breathless thriller, behind-the-scenes of the world chemical industry. The story begins in Chicago and ends up in our plates and our medicines. A real cold case, where readers will find the keys to a thriller that was played out in the 1970s. They will make up their minds about the usefulness—or danger—of this fake sugar.
Two scoops:
• super sweeteners from aspartame are given to cattle to make them grow fatter faster;
• Japan, which manufactures aspartame, does not consume it.
This book also lays bare what is was not meant to be told—the conflicts of interest, colossal stakes, secret files forbidden to the public.
