A First Course in Complex Analysis was developed from lecture notes for a one-semester undergraduate course taught by the authors. For many students, complex analysis is the first rigorous analysis (if not mathematics) class they take, and these notes reflect this. The authors try to rely on as few concepts from real analysis as possible. In particular, series and sequences are treated from scratch.
The story of Matth Toebben begins as a tale of a young child growing up under the scourge of Nazi Germany. He was forced to witness things a boy of his age should never see. For Matth and his family, every day was a struggle for survival in a time of overwhelming oppression. At the age of twenty-one, he headed forth across the Atlantic Ocean to America. Although he was unable to speak a word of English and had only ten dollars in his pocket, he wasn't deterred. Those obstacles were offset by an abundance of ambition and determination. He found the United States to be a land of immense opportunity for anyone willing to work hard and make their visions a reality. He dedicated himself to the principles upon which his new country was founded: devotion to God, love of family, and dedication to the community. Through sheer determination, he succeeded, and with each success came another. Along the way, he faced multiple disasters, both professionally and personally. It was the way in which he overcame the setbacks that had defined him as one of the area's most respected and influential leaders.
Anta the aardvark learns to appreciate his own looks and stop trying to be like all of his friends. He discovers that he is like no one else and that is a good thing.

Geliebte Verblödung: Vom Leben in der Fernsehära: Wie ein Medium die Wahrheit konstruiert, die Menschen manipuliert und die Kultur verproll

Wir leben in Fernsehbildern und sind alle Teil eines gro en Werbefilms f r das demokratische und kapitalistische westliche Gesellschaftssystem. F r Theodor Adorno ist das Fernsehen das alles berragende Instrument der verflachenden Kulturindustrie, f r Neil Postman ist es eine Verdummungsmaschine, f r Hans-Magnus Enzensberger das Nullmedium, und der Kriminologe Christian Pfeiffer kommt zu dem Schluss: "Ein berma an Medienkonsum macht dick, dumm, krank und traurig." Was fr her undenkbar schien, ist heute Wirklichkeit und wird nicht mehr als mediales Absurdistan erkannt: dass Shows Menschen dazu zwingen, ihren Kopf in eine Box mit Kakerlaken zu stecken oder sich in F kalien zu w lzen, dass Fernsehsender sich darin berbieten, dreistellige Millionen-Euro-Betr ge auszugeben f r die bertragungsrechte von Sportereignissen, dass den ffentlich-rechtlichen Sendern in Deutschland mehr als acht Milliarden Euro an Einnahmen zuflie en, dass fr hlich-anspruchslose TV-Moderatoren zweistellige Millionenhonorare bekommen, dass die Geb hrensender sich ohne Not dem Quotenwettlauf der privaten anschlie en und ihre Vollprogramme zunehmend nach den Unterhaltungsanspr chen der kommerziellen Konkurrenz ausrichten, dass nicht der ffentlich-rechtliche Rundfunk in Deutschland die Politik kontrolliert, sondern die Rollen vertauscht sind und die politischen Parteien die Sender kontrollieren undsoweiter. Das selbstreferentielle System ist berversorgt mit Geld und es berversorgt die Menschen mit Kan len, die niemand braucht und kaum jemand sieht. Es steht au erhalb der konomie, verwaltet sich selbst, ist durchdrungen von Vetternwirtschaft, Pfr ndedenken, Parteieneinfluss und festgefahren in Verwaltungshandeln. Der Intendant lebt wie ein absolutistischer Herrscher. Die Welt au erhalb seines Senders versteht er nicht. Er denkt gro , in Kategorien von Gottschalk, Jauch, Weltmeisterschaft, Olympia, Tatort und Tagesthemen. Das ist seine Welt. Die Welt der Medien spielt verr ckt, und diese irre digitale Gegenwelt wird zunehmend zum Ma stab f r die echte. Das Fernsehen versorgt uns mit Gegenwart, definiert, worauf es im Leben ankommt und beeinflusst unseren Realit tssinn. Es kolonisiert gleichzeitig andere Systeme wie die Wirtschaft, die Politik, die Kultur, denn wer sich seinen Gesetzen und Vorgaben nicht beugt, verliert an Bedeutung, deshalb machen alle mit. Dabei verspricht das Fernsehen best ndiges Gl ck. Alle Probleme der Welt sind auf der anderen Seite, weit entfernt oder fiktional. Es wirkt wie die Werbung, die uns sagt: Wir sind in Ordnung, Du bist in Ordnung, ich bin in Ordnung. Alles ist in Ordnung. So wird das System stabilisiert, der Status quo gefestigt und niemand muss sich Sorgen machen. Je schlimmer das Fernsehen die Zust nde zeigt, desto eher geben sich die Zuschauer zufrieden mit ihrer eigenen kleinen Welt, so unbefriedigend ihre Lage auch sei. Wirklichkeit und Illusion, tats chliches Erleben und gesehene Handlungen, die Fiktionen des Fernsehens, die nachgestellten Szenen, die Inszenierungen und die nicht nachpr fbaren und wie mit einem Maschinengewehr abgefeuerten Nachrichten aus der ganzen Welt, das Innere und das u ere, die ganze therische Welt im Kopf wirken auf die Menschen ein, verwirren und stiften Unruhe. Das Reale wird verwechselbar. War es berhaupt echt? Wo ist es uns unter gekommen? Wo haben wir den Eindruck her? Die Konfusion geht einher mit einer sensorischen Deprivation.
Webhooks: Events for Restful APIs

Got RESTful APIs? Great. API consumers love them. But today, such RESTful APIs are not enough for the evolving expectations of API consumers. Their apps need to be responsive, event-based and react to changes in near real-time. This results in a new set of requirements for the APIs, which power the apps. APIs now need to provide concepts such as events, notifications, triggers, and subscriptions. These concepts are not natively supported by the REST architectural style. The good thing: we can engineer RESTful APIs that support events with a webhook infrastructure. The bad thing: it requires some heavy lifting. The webhook infrastructure needs to be developer-friendly, easy to use, reliable, secure and highly available. With the best practices and design templates provided in this book, we want to help you extend your API portfolio with a modern webhook infrastructure. So you can offer both APIs and events that developers love to use.
Want to build APIs like Facebook? Since Facebook's framework for building APIs, GraphQL, has become publicly available, this ambition seems to be within reach for many companies. And that is great. But first, let's learn what GraphQL really is and - maybe even more importantly - let's figure out how to apply GraphQL to build APIs that consumers love. In this book, we take a hands-on approach to learning GraphQL. We first explore the concepts of the two GraphQL languages using examples. Then we start writing some code for our first GraphQL API. We develop this API step by step, from creating a schema and resolving queries, over mocking data and connecting data sources all the way to developing mutations and setting up event subscriptions.Are your API consumers important to you? This book shows you how to apply a consumer-oriented design process for GraphQL APIs, so you can deliver what your consumers really want: an API that solves their problems and offers a great developer experience.Do you want to enable the API consumers so they can build great apps? This book explains the GraphQL query language, which allows the API consumers to retrieve data, write data and get notified when data changes. More importantly, you let them decide, which data they really need from the API.Do you want to make your API easy and intuitive to use? This book shows you how to use the GraphQL schema language to define a type system for your API, which serves as a reference documentation and helps your API consumers write queries that are syntactically correct.Do you want to profit from what has worked for others? This book provides a collection of best practices for GraphQL that have worked for other companies, e.g. regarding pagination, authentication and caching.GraphQL and REST are competing philosophies for building APIs. It is not in the scope of this book to compare or discuss the two approaches. The focus of this book is on a hands-on approach for learning GraphQL.
Openid Connect: End-User Identity for Apps and APIs

Signup and login with a Google, Yahoo, or Microsoft account can be found in more and more web and mobile apps. One login used by many, freeing the end-user from the burden of managing many accounts and passwords. Signup and login to a new app become so smooth and convenient, that end-users are much more likely to try a new app. For us developers of web and mobile apps, these signup and login features are attractive, too: we do not need to manage user credentials, and we get a higher conversion rate resulting in more new customers. In effect, this means cutting costs and increasing the number of new customers for our apps.So how does this feature "Signup and login with Google, Yahoo, or Microsoft" work? It is realized with OpenID Connect, a standardized protocol for sharing end-user data in a secure and controlled manner. Exploring how OpenID Connect works, so we as developers can enjoy its benefits is the subject of this book. This book explains the overall concept of OpenID Connect, so we understand who the actors are, which endpoints and tokens are involved and how these elements interact in so-called flows. These flows tend to get confusing, so we visualize these flows as sequence diagrams, and show how to choose the flow that is appropriate for a given scenario. Using examples, we explore how the tokens are constructed, signed and encrypted with JWT, JWS, and JWE. This is not a programming book, don't expect implementations with a specific programming language or library. Instead, we focus on understanding OpenID Connect on a conceptual level, so we can design and architect apps that work with OpenID Connect. And OpenID Connect is the standard behind creating smooth login and signup experiences, increasing the customer signup rate, and creating highly converting apps.

Modern British Royal weddings are the ultimate in wedding celebrations. In many ways, they have been reflecting and setting world-wide fashions and standards for well over a century. This volume is the first in-depth discussion of the ways in which British Royal Weddings since 1919 have been celebrated. With a strongly interdisciplinary character, this study examines three main aspects of these ceremonies up to the twenty-first century: the choice of venue, the structure of the ceremonial, and the music of these events. More than twenty weddings are discussed in this volume, including some that are all but forgotten today, even though they were very significant and widely popular occasions in their time. This study contributes to the debate on the changing image and representation of the monarchy over the last century, especially the interaction of royalty with the public. A wealth of newly-discovered material has been unearthed, providing many new details of these ceremonies and their context. Particular emphasis is given to the music at these weddings, which illuminates their character and how they were perceived. Enriched with over seventy illustrations, this study approaches the topic of British royal weddings from several different perspectives and is a substantial resource for all those with an interest in twentieth-century British royalty and monarchy in general.
