覺得自己忙得要命。
沒有人無所事事,但到了一天的尾聲,卻不太明白自己有了什麼進展……
生活中的所有管理工作與維護工作好像把時間給吃掉了。
幾通電話、幾張表單、幾封回信,我們在腦海裡檢查這些工作而耗費的時間,比實際檢查工作的時間還要久,而想到這些工作的存在就不由得傷透腦筋......
在狂亂的現代生活中,要達到靜謐狀態,可說是難上加難。
但只要活用《靜謐時光》的九大規則,就會對自己度過的時間感到更心滿意足,你會更開心,也更專注於休閒時間的存在。
快樂其實來自於我們怎麼度過自己的時光。
★ 本書作者蘿拉.范德康(Laura Vanderkam)於TED Talk演說〈如何掌控你的休閒時間〉(How to Gain Control of Your Free Time),截至2024年4月,已經逾1479萬人次觀看。
「如果你想讓某件事發生,你需要設計你的生活來讓它發生。」
工作突然迸出了麻煩,孩子突然發燒、拉肚子、在學校有情況都是不可避免的,而生活中平凡任務——做飯、打掃、洗衣服——卻不會消失。
為了騰出時間來做重要的事情,你需要一個有彈性的時間表,而不是一個完美的時間表。
騰出時間給自己,就是在提醒自己,在工作責任與家庭責任以外,還有另外的身分。
你是有魅力又有才華的人,你會騰出空檔去做重要的事情,這樣就會更開心、更平衡地度過時間,生活也變得不那麼步履維艱。
《靜謐時光》基於一百五十多人的時間日記研究計畫,作者蘿拉.范德康彙整這些資料,並與計畫參與者不斷來回梳理,統整出九項策略,幫助我們在生活中創造快樂、充實和滿足的機會。
這不僅僅是一本關於如何完成這一切的時間管理書,更是一本能讓你成為「美好生活方式的自主管理者」,改變日常紊亂,打造自己想要過的日子的貼心指南。

Agile Practice Guide
Format: Paperback
Una muy buena compra para tener como guia repaso de los conceptos mas importantes de las metodologías agiles, y que variables tener en cuenta a la hora de encarar un proyecto y definir con que metodología se gestionará el mismo.
En un mundo en donde todos quieren IMPONER metodologías que todavía no entienden muy bien pero estan de moda, es una muy buena herramienta para entender cuando es valido hablar de metodologías agiles, de cuando hablamos de metodologías hibridas, o inclusive discutir si no es un approach mas eficiente el de ejecutar una metodología waterfall o lineal.
100% recomendado.

Excellent Introduction to SQL
Format: Paperback
I am compelled to share my overwhelmingly positive experience with the SQL Quickstart Giude which has proven to be an exceptional resource for anyone wanting to delve into the world of SQL coding.
First and foremost, the book is written in an extremely accessible manner, deftly simplifying complex concepts into digestible portions for beginners, yet providing deeper insights for seasoned developers. It transcends the barrier of technical jargon, presenting information in an intuitive, reader-friendly style.
However, the true selling point of this book, which separates it from the plethora of SQL resources available in the market, is the ingenious inclusion of its online resources. This addition enhances the book's value immeasurably, allowing the reader to step beyond the theoretical and put their knowledge into practice immediately.
The online resources that accompany the book provide a unique learning ecosystem, an ideal blend of theory and practice. They offer a plethora of well-organized and insightful coding examples for each chapter, which are also available for download. This allows the readers not only to work along as they learn but also to experiment and implement their own iterations of the code. This hands-on approach cements the concepts learned in a way that theoretical learning alone cannot.
Moreover, these downloads enable offline access, which ensures that you can learn at your convenience, a feature that not many SQL books offer. This aspect of anytime, anywhere learning is crucial in our current fast-paced world.
Furthermore, the author provides ample exercises to test your understanding, which are then complemented by detailed solutions on the online platform. This real-time feedback is instrumental in understanding one's progress and identifying areas for improvement, which paves the way for a confident and competent SQL programmer.
In conclusion, the "SQL Quickstart Guide" with its companion online resources has proven to be an unbeatable combination for learning SQL. It has created a learning experience that is seamless, engaging, and, most importantly, effective. It is a rare gem in a field often dominated by dense, inaccessible texts and I would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to embark or advance their journey in SQL programming.

Easy to follow, well written book. Can easily be used in liue of a textbook. Get spiral edition.
Format: Spiral-bound
Walter Shields does a fantastic job of writing this book from a perspective that a reader will have no clue on databases, or SQL. I'm a former Database programmer, but after being away for so many years I had to come back to SQL, and I needed a reference quick. Everything is written in a step by step easy to swallow informational way that leaves no room for failure. Even the examples are fantastic. This book is compatible with opensource SQL so need to pay for anything but the book.
Get the spiral edition, it lays flat on the table and is easier to follow.
Unlike McGraw Hill, Cengage, Thomson Course Technology, this book doesn't expire and block you from buying a used copy to prevent you from downloading the files needed to learn.
A fantastic reference, a great book, timeless because it doesn't expire.

SQL qsg book
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I've taken a couple classes on SQL some time ago and was looking for a book to go over basics. This is a perfect book to start with the basics of understanding how to write a SQL query. I really liked that there is a free database to use in SQLite to follow along with the examples in the book. That was very helpful for me. I appreciated the tips throughout the chapters and the practice questions at the end. Easy to read and follow.

This is a good very distant overview
Format: Paperback
Sometimes I need a really simplistic overview of an entire subject before I feel comfortable sitting down to learn it. Like if you are going to learn about, say, 13th Century France you might want to know just a little about the major issues of the entire century before sitting down with a text book. This book is good for that. It's short, it gets you started with the main keywords, and at the end you have a good picture of what the language can do. And you can get to the end in a day or two. It's very well written, well organized, clear, and very very limited in scope. But if you read it, you will be in good shape to start getting down to business with working with SQL with a more advanced text. This book, in my opinion, was well worth the money and the read even though ultimately I turned to something far more advanced.
