Cesare Lombroso (1835-1909) tudós elmeorvos. Már korán a pszichiátria tudománya felé fordult. Volt elmegyógyintézetek vezet?je, b?rt?norvos, igazságügyi orvosszakért?k, munkája során vizsgálta a b?n?z?i hajlam kérdését. Lángész és ?rültség cím? k?nyve óriási felt?nést és jelent?s visszhangot keltett az egész világon. M?vében sok olyan témát érint, amelyekre talán még ma sem igazán tudjuk a helyes és végleges választ. Lehetséges, hogy azért nem, mert igazán ma sem ismerjük az idegrendszer és az agy m?k?dését. Miként lehetséges, hogy a k?znapi ember olykor-olykor maga is ráismer a lángész vagy az ?rült viselkedésének, reagálásának egy-egy mozzanatára. Mindannyian zsenik és ?rültek lennénk egyszerre? Hétk?znapi mániáink betegesek-e? A túlérzékeny ember morálja kóros-e? A hipochonder egyúttal elmebeteg is? Akinek szomorú gondolatai vannak és lelkiismeret-furdalások gy?trik, az lelki beteg, vagy egyenesen ?rült? Lombroso a zsenik, a nagy emberek példáján mutatja be, hogan lehet ?megvilágosult” állapotban jelent?set alkotni úgy, hogy k?zben ezek a zsenik mániákusan ragaszkodnak saját mell?z?ttségük vagy üld?z?ttségük tudatához. A k?zkelet? hiedelemre, hogy a lángész és az ?rültség nincs is olyan messzire egymástól, még a modern tudományok eredményeinek tükrében is választ vár az olvasó. S Lombroso e k?nyve kielégíti érdekl?dését. (moly.hu)

Master performance optimization for Unity3D applications with tips and techniques that cover every aspect of the Unity3D EngineAbout This BookOptimize CPU cycles, memory usage, and GPU throughput for any Unity3D applicationMaster optimization techniques across all Unity Engine features including Scripting, Asset Management, Physics, Graphics Features, and ShadersA practical guide to exploring Unity Engine's many performance-enhancing methodsWho This Book Is ForThis book is intended for intermediate and advanced Unity developers who have experience with most of Unity’s feature-set, and who want to maximize the performance of their game. Familiarity with the C# language will be needed.What You Will LearnUse the Unity Profiler to find bottlenecks anywhere in our application, and discover how to resolve themImplement best-practices for C# *ing to avoid common pitfallsDevelop a solid understanding of the rendering pipeline, and maximize its performance through reducing draw calls and avoiding fill rate bottlenecksEnhance shaders in a way that is accessible to most developers, optimizing them through subtle yet effective performance tweaksKeep our scenes as dynamic as possible by making the most of the Physics engineOrganize, filter, and compress our art assets to maximize performance while maintaining high qualityPull back the veil on the Mono Framework and the C# Language to implement low-level enhancements that maximize memory usage and avoid garbage collectionGet to know the best practices for project organization to save time through an improved workflowIn DetailCompetition within the gaming industry has become significantly fiercer in recent years with the adoption of game development frameworks such as Unity3D. Through its massive feature-set and ease-of-use, Unity helps put some of the best processing and rendering technology in the hands of hobbyists and professionals alike. This has led to an enormous explosion of talent, which has made it critical to ensure our games stand out from the crowd through a high level of quality. A good user experience is essential to create a solid product that our users will enjoy for many years to come.Nothing turns gamers away from a game faster than a poor user-experience. Input latency, slow rendering, broken physics, stutters, freezes, and crashes are among a gamer’s worst nightmares and it’s up to us as game developers to ensure this never happens. High performance does not need to be limited to games with the biggest teams and budgets.Initially, you will explore the major features of the Unity3D Engine from top to bottom, investigating a multitude of ways we can improve application performance starting with the detection and analysis of bottlenecks. You’ll then gain an understanding of possible solutions and how to implement them. You will then learn everything you need to know about where performance bottlenecks can be found, why they happen, and how to work around them.This book gathers a massive wealth of knowledge together in one place, saving many hours of research and can be used as a quick reference to solve specific issues that arise during product development.Style and approachThis book is organized based on the major features of Unity engine and should be treated as a reference guide. It is written as a series of investigations into both common and unusual performance pitfalls, each including a study on why the bottleneck is causing us problems, and a list of enhancements or features that can be used to work around them. Differences in effectiveness, behaviors, or feature-sets between Unity 4.x and Unity 5.x will be highlighted.

In my first book of poetry and prose, The Learning Process, Iexplored many themes. For my second book, A Life in Orbit, Idetermined to try something novel and new: a biography in verse. Itwas a daunting project because I had to revisit my past andtranslate my thoughts and memories into a discipline of words,lines and verses. I was handicapped to an extent by the restraintsimposed by the narrative style. I had to write truthfully, andwithout embellishment in four-line stanzas, within the time spanand framework of eleven periods of my life. These periods variedboth dramatically and traumatically, but I averaged around fortyverses for each period. This book dates from 1932 to 2012. Thecharacters include my parents, siblings, relatives, friends,teachers at school and university, teaching associates, travellingcompanions, poets, personal friends, as well as personalities andpolitical figures of the times. I have suffered, but I have alsotriumphed. Here is my story in prose. Ken W. Simpson was brought upin South Camberwell, a Melbourne suburb in the Australian state ofVictoria. He taught art and crafts in technical schools for fifteenyears before retiring. "I began writing short stories until Idiscovered my love for poetry." His first book The Learning Processwas published by Strategic two years ago. He lives with his familyin Lysterfield, suburban Melbourne. Publisher's website:http://sbpra.com/KenWSimpson
