<p> This book approaches system analysis and design with an object-oriented perspective, faithful to UML and others currently in use in many organizations. The SDC is central in the development of an information system; the book shows how each step of the SDC builds on itself. It provides readers with a strong systematic framework, linking one chapter to the next; this approach enables readers to easily learn object-oriented system analysis and design. All terminology and diagrams are UML compliant.  A running case (The Pine Valley Furniture Webstore) is used throughout the book as an example. Readers can develop, propose, implement, and maintain a Webstore, learning through doing. The end-of-chapter case, Broadway Entertainment Company Inc., shows readers how a fictional video and record retailer develops an object-oriented application. Coverage includes: foundations for object-oriented systems development; project planning and management; systems analysis; systems design; and systems implementation and operation.  An excellent “how-to” guide for systems analysts and designers. </p>

Based on his experiences as a policeman in Burma, George Orwell's first novel present a devastating picture of British colonial rule. It describes corruption and imperial bigotry in a society where, "after all, natives were natives- interesting, no doubt, but finally...an inferior people with black faces."

'Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past' Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal. George Orwell's dystopian masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four is perhaps the most pervasively influential book of the twentieth century.

Animal Farm: A Fair Story is a satire of an ideological revolution corrupted by absolute power.The oppressed, mistreated animals of Manor Farm launch a revolution, driving out the human farmer, and begin to run the farm themselves. They create a code called Animalism, in which they outline seven main commandments, the principal of which is, all animals are equal and decide to live by this code. The idea for the revolution in Animal Farm: A Fair Story began when the old prize winning boar, Old Major, gathers the farm animals together and tells them of his dream of a place in which animal live in peace and harmony, free of the oppression of humans. When Old Major dies, two pigs, Napoleon and Snowball, decide to make the old pig s dream a reality. They succeed with the help of the other animals in the farm. A period of peace and happiness follows. But, this period does not last. Snowball wants to educate all the animals and wants their participation in running the farm. Napoleon does not agree. When Snowball decides to build a windmill to generate electricity for the farm, and gives a speech about it, Napoleon puts his own plans into action. He has secretly trained a group of attack dogs, dogs that he took in when they were little puppies, ostensibly to educate them . He now uses them to chase off Snowball and assumes all the powers for himself and his supporters. The pigs now become a special, privileged class. With the help of a sidekick, Squealer, who acts as Napoleon s mouthpiece and propagandist, Napoleon slowly manages to convince all the animals that everything he is doing is for their own good. Squealer is good at his job, and the animals in Animal Farm: A Fair Story believe him, despite their own appalling living conditions. Gradually, the code of Animalism is thrown aside, every rule broken. A new order emerges, but not the one that the old boar, Old Major, envisioned.
