This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.DESCRIPTIONFunctional programming is transforming how we build robust, scalable, and maintainable software by prioritizing clarity and predictability. It emphasizes what to compute by defining expressions that map values to other values, and focuses on how to achieve a result through a sequence of statements that change program state.This book explores core functional principles like immutability, pure f...

This book highlights the vulnerability of healthcare buildings in the context of climate change-triggered extreme weather events (EWEs) and the case for mitigation. With a concise discussion on climate change and its consequences in the form of such events, a cost model and equations that register losses and help quantify them are then presented. The model can be used to estimate the significant potential loss that might occur during an EWE and help healthcare facilities prepare for them.

Assessment of professional competence for project managers and the measure of project success is well-trodden ground in the research and professional project management literature. Whilst standards and certifications like PMBOK and the IPMA competence baseline have been developed as a guide for the development of project managers’ competence, the manifestation of these competencies into good performance is neither guaranteed nor always easily ascertainable.This book presents a bran...

भारतीय धर्म ग्रंथ यह स्पष्ट संदेश देते हैं कि आधुनिक इतिहासकार जिन्हें भारतीय आर्य कहते हैं वे प्रथमत: हिमालय के उस पार के पर्वतीय अंचल में रहते थे। सीमित संसाधन और बढ़ते जन-घनत्व के कारण यहाँ के लोग हिमालय के इस पार आने और बसने लगे। ये लोग मुख्य रूप से दो शाखाओं में बँटकर दो भिन्न कालों में आये। एक शाखा कश्मीर में (हिमालय के आर-पार) बसी और दूसरी शाखा सरस्वती एवं सिन्धु के मैदानी भागों में जगह-जगह आबाद हुई। इन्हीं लोगों ने तथाकथित सिन्धु घाटी सभ्यता को जन्म दिया।पौराणिक साक्ष्यों के...

साधारण भारतीयों के मन में जिन्ना की छवि एक निहायत नीरस, अन्तर्मुखी, तार्किक, अधार्मिक, भावना- शून्य, मनहूस, हिसाबी, सिर से पैर तक पश्चिमी सभ्यता में रँगे, चोटी के वकील के साथ एक अपराजेय राजनीतिक सौदेबाज़ की रही है। जिन्ना के व्यक्तित्व की इन विशेषताओं को झुठलाना जहाँ निहायत दुश्वार है, वहीं मात्र इन्हीं विशेषताओं में उन्हें सीमित करना वस्तुतः सच्चाई से मुँह मोड़ना होगा। जिन्ना के जीवन और व्यक्तित्व के कुछ ऐसे पहलू हैं, जो बहुत कम उजागर हो पाए हैं। फलस्वरूप अक्सर उनका एकांगी मूल्यांकन ही हो...
