Robin Williams Cool Mac Apps: A Guide to iLife 05, .Mac, and More is a companion volume to Robin Williams Mac OS X Book, Tiger Edition. Together they continue the tradition of Robin's classic guide to the Mac OS, The  Little Mac Book. Because Apple now provides a long list of useful applications with Mac OS X, its state-of-the art operating system, it's impractical to cover all of the Mac OS in one volume. This book gives you detailed explanations and tutorials of the main applications that Mac OS X installs on your computer. In addition, you'll learn how subscribing to a .Mac account can enhance your digital lifestyle. John and Robin cover each application in detail in the clear and friendly style for which their award-winning books are known. Through tutorials, tips, and techniques you'll learn how to use each of the powerful apps--both individually and as part of an integrated, interactive suite.
Whether you're a new or veteran user, you'll welcome this book's easy approach to all that's new (and not so new) in Tiger's application collection. You'll find an entire chapter on GarageBand 2, Apple's newly  updated consumer-level music-making software. You'll also learn everything about getting on the Internet and using email, including the greatest Web browser, Safari; the way-cool iChat AV, which adds audio and video to instant messaging;  iTunes, which includes access to the revolutionary Apple iTunes Music Store; iCal, Apple's sleek and shareable calendar application; Dashboard, the handy strip of desktop "widget" applications (including stock tickers, RSS feeds, address book, and more );  iMovie, Apple's newly updated  movie-making software with HD capabilities and advanced editing tools,  and much more.
  

As knowledge of biological systems and the number of techniques available for exploring and visualizing their components has increased, it has become possible to design drugs specifically for a given target. Smith and Williams’ Introduction to the Principles of Drug Design and Action, Fourth Edition provides the basic principles of rational drug design, including both novel and established approaches. This new edition adopts a from-bench-to-marketplace approach, using real examples where possible. It offers a comprehensive update of the previous edition, particularly with respect to new advances in molecular techniques, biotechnological applications, and computer-aided design.

Parece imposible sostenerse como un héroe mítico que camina al mismo tiempo entre los mortales. Pero Messi lo ha logrado, transita entre nosotros y toca nuestras vidas.

Desde sus comienzos en los campos de tierra de Rosario, su ciudad natal, su consagración en el FC Barcelona, su paso por el PSG, hasta la coronación en Qatar, este libro plantea un recorrido en el que destacadas figuras internacionales transitan aventuras, personajes, momentos que van perfilando la figura del crack, del Lionel físico, público y mediático, pero más aún del Messi simbólico, el que lleva la bandera de las fantasías por el mundo.

Messi: 10 miradas sobre el 10 es una celebración, un homenaje, un tributo a uno de los mejores futbolistas de todos los tiempos.

«Diez perspectivas diversas, accesibles y precisas componen un libro imprescindible para comprender la trayectoria y la consagración del mejor jugador del fútbol del siglo XXI».

Diego Roldán, investigador CONICET, Universidad Nacional de Rosario
