Reviews
"Arresting. In its brevity and unity of plot it surpasses even his previous book, Slowness." -- Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, New York Times "Curiously absorbing, with a melancholy charm." -- Wall Street Journal "[Kundera's] way of imagining himself into the minds of women in a state of love and desire is remarkable." -- Boston Globe "A beguiling meditation on the illusions of self-image and desire....meant to be savored, pleasurably and thoughtfully, like a fine cognac." -- Time Out New York "Kundera, master of the twosome, finds erotic and existential threads everywhere in daily behavior. Like his previous books, Identity is a cluster of jeweled observations. . . . But Identity has a special charm: suspense. . . . [It] gets us turning the pages in excitement and alarm, and Kundera's wit keeps us turning them to the very end, through love's dark night of the soul and out again into a precarious sunlight." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Its allegory of love left me shivering with an ambiguous, indefinable, yet strong sense of evil." -- Washington Post Book World "A fervent and compelling romance, a moving fable about the anxieties of love and separateness." -- Baltimore Sun "A twisting, teasing labyrinthine story of detection." -- Times Literary Supplement "Insightful. . . Kundera lucidly discloses the psychological obsessions of the two lovers and shows how these obsessions lead to repeated miscommunications between them." -- New York Times Book Review
Table Of Content
An Introduction to Object-Oriented Design in C++ introduces object-oriented program development from the ground-up. This book helps students develop strong object-oriented design skills from the beginning. rather than forcing students to learn procedural design and then unlearn it when they are later taught object-oriented programming. The book covers the full range of object-oriented programming topics, from fundamental features common to all general purpose high-level languages, through classes, to inheritance and polymorphism. Students are encouraged to think and design in terms of objects and to structure their code to reflect their designs. The authors introduce students to common difficulties that arise in design and implementations, and then motivate new language features as aids for overcoming those difficulties. The manuscript for the book has been class-tested over four semesters. Features: Begins with object-oriented analysis and design from the very first page Introduces predefined objects in Chapter 2; class libraries in Chapter 3; and students create new types of objects by creating their own classes in Chapter 7 Focuses on the object-oriented approach while introducing functions in the early chapters Helps students build on concepts such as design and reusablity by using running examples throughout the book Gives a complete picture of object-oriented programming by covering the essential elements of inheritance and polymorphism 0201765640B04062001
Synopsis
"Kundera, master of the twosome, finds erotic and existential threads everywhere in daily behavior. Like his previous books, Identity is a cluster of jeweled observations. . . . But Identity has a special charm: suspense. . . . [It] gets us turning the pages in excitement and alarm, and Kundera's wit keeps us turning them to the very end." -- San Francisco Chronicle In a narrative as intense as it is brief, a moment of confusion sets in motion a complex chain of events which forces the reader to cross and recross the divide between fantasy and reality. Sometimes--perhaps only for an instant--we fail to recognize a companion; for a moment their identity ceases to exist, and thus we come to doubt our own. The effect is at its most acute in a couple, where our existence is given meaning by our perception of a lover, and theirs of us. With his astonishing skill at building on and out from the significant moment, Milan Kundera has placed such a situation and the resulting wave of panic at the core of this novel. Hailed as a "a fervent and compelling romance, a moving fable about the anxieties of love and separateness" (Baltimore Sun), it is not to be missed., Milan Kundera's Identity translated from the French by Linda Asher. There are situations in which we fail for a moment to recognize the person we are with, in which the identity of the other is erased while we simultaneously doubt our own. That also happens with couples -- indeed, above all with couples, because lovers fear more than anything else "losing sight" of the loved one. With stunning artfulness in expanding and playing variations on the meaningful moment, Milan Kundera has made this situation -- and the vague sense of panic it inspires -- the very fabric of his new novel. Here brevity goes hand in hand with intensity, and a moment of bewilderment marks the start of a labyrinthine journey during which the reader repeatedly crosses the border between the real and the unreal, between what occurs in the world outside and what the mind creates in its solitude. Of all contemporary writers, only Kundera can transform such a hidden and disconcerting perception into the material for a novel, one of his finest, most painful, and most enlightening. Which, surprisingly, turns out to be a love story.
