The fundamental idea of geometry is that of symmetry. With that principle as the starting point, Barker and Howe begin an insightful and rewarding study of Euclidean geometry. The primary focus of the book is on transformations of the plane. The transformational point of view provides both a path for deeper understanding of traditional synthetic geometry and tools for providing proofs that spring from a consistent point of view. As a result, proofs become more comprehensible, as techniques can be used and reused in similar settings. The approach to the material is very concrete, with complete explanations of all the important ideas, including foundational background. The discussions of the nine-point circle and wallpaper groups are particular examples of how the strength of the transformational point of view and the care of the authors' exposition combine to give a remarkable presentation of topics in geometry. This text is for a one-semester undergraduate course on geometry. It is richly illustrated and contains hundreds of exercises.

A common misconception in the Mac community is that Mac’s operating system is more secure than others. While this might be true in certain cases, security on the Mac is still a crucial issue. When sharing is enabled or remote control applications are installed, Mac OS X faces a variety of security threats. Enterprise Mac Security: Mac OS X Snow Leopard is a definitive, expert-driven update of the popular, slash-dotted first edition and was written in part as a companion to the SANS Institute course for Mac OS X. It contains detailed Mac OS X security information, and walkthroughs on securing systems, including the new Snow Leopard operating system. Using the SANS Institute course as a sister, this book caters to both the beginning home user and the seasoned security professional not accustomed to the Mac, establishing best practices for Mac OS X for a wide audience. The authors of this book are seasoned Mac and security professionals, having built many of the largest network infrastructures for Apple and spoken at both DEFCON and Black Hat on OS X security.

From the PREFACE. The object of the present work is to assist the student in arriving at a more intimate acquaintance with the Turkish language than can be acquired by means of the grammars which have hitherto been published, and which are either incorrect or too complex for a general reader. For a person who aspires to read and write a language with any degree of accuracy, something more is necessary than a superficial knowledge of grammatical rules. He must study its construction and possess a just conception of its organization; and this the author ventures to hope may be effected by following the plan laid down in these pages. While it is impossible to foresee all the difficulties that may arise in the mind of a student, the author has done his best towards anticipating them, and in this task he has been mainly guided by the remarks and questions put to him by his pupils in the several stages of their progress. By first presenting .a number of simple but necessary forms and rules, he lays a foundation for observations of a more critical nature; by giving a grammatical analysis of every difficult word, he renders these rules familiar; and by constant repetition, he inculcates them on the memory. By giving a literal translation of each word, he saves the learner much time and trouble; and by presenting the same word in the vocabulary, he lays before the student its root and origin as it would occur in a dictionary. Doubtless, a great deal more might be written without exhausting the subject; but the author trusts that sufficient has been done to simplify the rules, and bring them within reach of the comprehension of every one—without prolixity, and yet with sufficient diffuseness for every requisite purpose. It is with much diffidence that the author now lays the result of his experience before the world; but he trusts he may, in some measure, gain the approval of more competent judges, amongst whom there is no one whose good opinion he could more highly value than the distinguished officer to whom he ventures to dedicate this volume.
