As a software developer, you need to learn new languages and simultaneously get familiarized with the programming paradigms and methods of leveraging patterns, as both a communications tool and an advantage when designing well-written, easy-to-maintain code. Design patterns, being a collection of best practices, provide the necessary wisdom to help you overcome common sets of challenges in object-oriented design and programming.This practical guide to design patterns helps C# developers put their programming knowledge to work. The book takes a hands-on approach to introducing patterns and anti-patterns, elaborating on 14 patterns along with their real-world implementations. Throughout the book, you'll understand the implementation of each pattern, as well as find out how to successfully implement those patterns in C# code within the context of a real-world project.By the end of this design patterns book, you’ll be able to recognize situations that tempt you to reinvent the wheel, and quickly avoid the time and cost associated with solving common and well-understood problems with battle-tested design patterns.

ReasonML, also known as Reason, is a new syntax and toolchain for OCaml that was created by Facebook and is meant to be approachable for web developers. Although OCaml has several resources, most of them are from the perspective of systems development. This book, alternatively, explores Reason from the perspective of web development.You'll learn how to use Reason to build safer, simpler React applications and why you would want to do so. Reason supports immutability by default, which works quite well in the context of React.In learning Reason, you will also learn about its ecosystem – BuckleScript, JavaScript interoperability, and various npm workflows. We learn by building a real-world app shell, including a client-side router with page transitions, that we can customize for any Reason project. You'll learn how to leverage OCaml's excellent type system to enforce guarantees about business logic, as well as preventing runtime type errors.You'll also see how the type system can help offload concerns that we once had to keep in our heads.We'll explore using CSS-in-Reason, how to use external JSON in Reason, and how to unit-test critical business logic. By the end of the book, you'll understand why Reason is exploding in popularity and will have a solid foundation on which to continue your journey with Reason.
Rebelia i reakcja. Rewolucja 1905 roku i plebejskie doświadczenie polityczne
Wiktor Marzec
Książka to studium plebejskiego doświadczenia politycznego w czasie rewolucji lat 1905-1907. Autor analizuje uczestnictwo robotników w życiu publicznym i ideologiczne obrazy świata u progu "politycznej nowoczesności". Wtedy to stare podstawy ładu społeczno-politycznego zaczęły kruszeć, nowe grupy ludności domagały się politycznego głosu i ukształtowały się języki polityczne nowoczesnych obozów ideowych. Nowe formy polityki spotkały się z silną, konserwatywną reakcją, która na długi czas ukształtowała polską sferę publiczną. Ponadto w rzadko spotykany sposób łączy naukową głębię i precyzję analizy z komunikatywnością oraz społeczno-polityczną doniosłością. Wydarzenia tamtych lat i ich konsekwencje potraktowane w niej zostały jako synekdocha zjawisk o znacznie szerszym zakresie i o fundamentalnym znaczeniu dla konstytucji współczesnego świata: mechanizmów i narzędzi walki klasowej, procesów budowy państwa, konstrukcji tożsamości narodowej i - co niezwykle istotne - wzajemnych relacji między walką o materialne interesy klas podporządkowanych a kształtowaniem się formacji nacjonalistyczno-populistycznych. Wychodząc od plebejskiego doświadczenia politycznego, autor dociera do przemian politycznych wyobrażeń Narodowej Demokracji i źródeł sukcesów ideowo-politycznych tego ugrupowania. Praca nie tylko wzbogaca naszą wiedzę o rewolucji 1905 r., ale skłania też do namysłu nad całkiem aktualnymi zagadnieniami, dotyczącymi np. współczesnej społeczno-politycznej kondycji Polski.
