Summary

"Boost.Asio Techniques and Applications""Boost.Asio Techniques and Applications" is a thorough and expertly organized guide to mastering asynchronous programming with Boost.Asio, the industry-standard C++ library for network and low-level I/O systems. This comprehensive volume delves into core architectural principles—covering event-driven paradigms, execution engines, handler management, and error diagnostics—laying the foundational knowledge required to build high-quality, robust, and performant applications. Readers gain deep insight into the internal mechanisms of Boost.Asio, contemporary execution models, and modern coroutine support, all anchored with clear explanations and actionable strategies.The book methodically explores fundamental and advanced networking patterns, guiding readers through the full spectrum of TCP/UDP socket programming, multicast/broadcast semantics, endpoint management, and asynchronous workflows including callback chaining, futures, and coroutines. Further chapters address the unique challenges of concurrency and scalability, discussing strand abstraction, work distribution, hybrid blocking/non-blocking designs, stateful protocol parsing, and high-throughput server architectures. Practical attention is given to crucial security concepts—from OpenSSL integration and TLS optimization to certificate management and application protocol security—highlighting best practices for building secure, production-quality systems.Rounding out this indispensable resource, the text offers real-world guidance on cross-platform development, embedded and IoT deployment, testing and troubleshooting, and performance tuning. Dedicated sections walk the reader through robust testing strategies, fault simulation, advanced debugging, and effective use of both static and dynamic analysis tools. The final chapters demonstrate how to harmoniously integrate Boost.Asio with modern C++ features and ecosystem libraries, address legacy code migration, and offer a look ahead at upcoming standardization efforts. Whether you are designing scalable servers, secure device gateways, or high-performance network clients, this book provides the modern C++ developer with the tools and techniques to leverage the full power of Boost.Asio.

    “A fascinating exploration of the mysteries ignited by DNA genealogy testing—from the intensely personal and concrete to the existential and unsolvable.” —Tana French, New York Times–bestselling author  
 
You swab your cheek or spit in a vial, then send it away to a lab somewhere. Weeks later you get a report that might tell you where your ancestors came from or if you carry certain genetic risks. Or, the report could reveal a long-buried family secret that upends your entire sense of identity. Soon a lark becomes an obsession, a relentless drive to find answers to questions at the core of your being, like “Who am I?” and “Where did I come from?” Welcome to the age of home genetic testing. 
 
In The Lost Family, journalist Libby Copeland investigates what happens when we embark on a vast social experiment with little understanding of the ramifications. She explores the culture of genealogy buffs, the science of DNA, and the business of companies like Ancestry and 23andMe, all while tracing the story of one woman, her unusual results, and a relentless methodical drive for answers that becomes a thoroughly modern genetic detective story. Gripping and masterfully told, The Lost Family is a spectacular book on a big, timely subject. 
 
“An urgently necessary, powerful book that addresses one of the most complex social and bioethical issues of our time.” —Dani Shapiro, New York Times–bestselling author 
 
“Before you spit in that vial, read this book.” —The New York Times Book Review 
 
“Impeccably researched . . . up-to-the-minute science meets the philosophy of identity in a poignant, engaging debut.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

  • What the Bears Know - How I Found Truth and Magic in America's Most Misunderstood Creatures - cover

    What the Bears Know - How I...

    Steve Searles, Chris Erskine

    In the late 1990s, the town of Mammoth Lakes, California, hired Steve Searles as a hunter to cull half its troublesome bear population. But as he began to prepare for the grim task, the bears soon won him over, and Searles realized there had to be a better way. He soon developed nonlethal tactics to control their behavior and overpopulation that heralded a landmark moment in the care and handling of the American black bear. But change was not without its challenges. To some, his success was dismissed due to his lack of formal academic training. Yet Searles never wavered in his commitment, and eventually became not just local folk hero but a nationally recognized expert. This high school dropout saved not just the bears, but, in many ways, his community. 
 
 
 
In a tradition that runs from John Muir to Bear Grylls, Searles finds a fellowship with nature and a deeper meaning in the world of bears. Do bears understand things we don't? Are they dialed in to some greater natural force? Unlike us, bears waste little time on unreasonable fears. Bears are fully in the moment. They have an inner peace that seems to offset their power and strength. That may explain why no other animal on the planet is as revered as the bear. As Searles shares his remarkable knowledge and we become immersed in the ursine world, you'll never look at bears or nature the same way again.
