Book excerpt: An inspiring and deeply personal coming of age memoir from one of Silicon Valley’s youngest entrepreneurs—a second-generation Latino immigrant who taught himself how to code as a thirteen-year-old and went on to claim his share of the American dream. As his parents watched their restaurant business collapse in the wake of the Great Recession, Michael Sayman was googling “how to code.” Within a year, he had launched an iPhone app that was raking in thousands of dollars a month, enough to keep his family afloat—and in America. Entirely self-taught, Sayman headed from high school straight into the professional world, and by the time he was seventeen, he was Facebook’s youngest employe ever, building new features that wowed its founder Mark Zuckerberg and are now being used by more than half a billion people every day. Sayman pushed Facebook to build its own version of Snapchat’s Stories and, as a result, engagement on the platform soared across all demographics. Millions of Gen Z and Millennials flocked to Facebook, and as teen engagement rose dramatically on Instagram and WhatsApp, Snapchat’s parent company suffered a billion-dollar loss in value. Three years later, Sayman jumped ship for Google. App Kid is the galvanizing story of a young Latino, not yet old enough to drink, who excelled in the cutthroat world of Silicon Valley and went on to become an inspiration to thousands of kids everywhere by following his own surprising, extraordinary path. In this candid and uplifting memoir, Sayman shares the highs and lows, the successes and failures, of his remarkable journey. His book is essential and affirming reading for anyone marching to the beat of their own drum.

Book excerpt: A MEDICAL BOOK THAT IS RICH ON IMAGES AND INFORMATION SPECIFICALLY ELABORATED FOR AND AIMED AT THOSE PROFESSIONALS SPECIALIZING IN AESTHETIC CORRECTIONS OF THE FACE • I dedicate this text, which is the result of many years od work, to all those who, like me, operate in the wonderful world of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery. For a better understanding of the text,it is useful for me to illustrate my professional past. • It was 1982 when I injected my first phial of filler: it was bovine collagen. • From the initial small corrections, which I effected overcoming fears and worries, i performed wider corrections in various areas of the face, acquiring more and more confidence and awareness about what I was doing( this confidence was due to my knowledge of anatomy, whithout which I wouold have felt “naked”). • Now, in 2014, I still am, as I have always been in all this time, in search of slightly invasive techniques,more and more consolidating my knowledge in order to obtain the best and above all the most natural results. • I held, and am still holding, courses in various parts of the world, proposing to my colleagues all my knowledge acquired in these years, in particular the secrets, the points of attention, the correct therapeutic approach, the global vision of problems and possible limits. All that with the aim of working correctly and reaching the utmost results. • I take part in national and international congresses, where I illustrate my techniques and the new approaches in the field and I compare the colleagues’ experiences with mine with the humbleness of a person who is always willing to learn. • My experience, acquired also through teaching on corpses, has led me not only to a deeper knowledge of anatomy, but also to developing new personal techniques. • In consequence of the continous and appreciated request of material for consultation by Italian and foreign colleagues, I decided to undertake the onerous project of presenting, in this first volume, the anatomy and the noble structures, of which we must have a specific knowledge in order to better understand and assimilate the operative guide-lines used by me, which are going to be dealt with in the second volume. • This text has some peculiar characteristics that can be synthetized in two words: clarity and immediateness in consultation. As we well know, in order to be able to undertake a targeted therapeutic program, regardless of the substance used, a deep knowledge of the anatomy of the face is needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrogels are a fascinating class of polymers which show an immense ability of swelling under the influence of temperature, pH value or concentrations of different species in aqueous solutions. The volume change can amount up to several hundred percent. This unique behaviour is already used in such applications like disposable diapers, contact lenses or drug-delivery systems. The ability to perform mechanical work has been shifted the technical interest more and more towards sensors and actuators exploiting the thermo-chemo-mechano-electrical coupling within hydrogels. The accuracy requirements for such devices are much more demanding than for previous applications. Therefore, a deep knowledge of both the material and the functional properties of hydrogel sensors and actuators is needed. The monograph describes state of the art and recent developments for these materials in sensor and actuator technology.
