Black Walnut
The bittersweet and nutritious oil of the black walnut has a long history
of medicinal and food uses. Once used as treatment for diphtheria and
syphilis, black walnut is now used mostly for the astringent properties of
its hulls and bark. It has been used world-wide for several centuries for
its anti-parasitic, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal actions and remains in
use today. Studies of black walnut are scarce. However, the existing data
coupled with overwhelming cross-cultural use of black walnut in treating
similar health conditions for centuries cannot be ignored. Further studies
are certainly warranted and deserving for the use of black walnut in
Western medicine.
Quassia
Found in the Amazon rainforests of South America, this shrubby tree
produces smooth, gray bark, compound leaves, small yellow flowers, and
pea-sized black fruits. The bark of the quassia tree was first introduced
into Europe from Surinam in 1756 and named after "Quassia", a native
healer, who told Europeans of its therapeutic value. Quassia bark is used
in various countries for more or less the same thing, that is, to
stimulate the appetite and promote digestion. The bitter active
ingredients within the bark are responsible for its tonic effect on the
digestive system, increasing the production of salivary juices, stomach
acids, and bile.

Professional Java Server Programming, Second Edition
Summary Rather than a simple update of the existing Professional Java Server Programming book, the J2EE edition represents an evolution of the content to reflect the changing state of server-side Java development. Whereas the first edition can be seen as an introduction to Java on the server, the new edition is a more tightly integrated vision of how to combine the Java technologies to develop n-tier applications in Java based primarily around J2EE. Since the release of the first edition in the fall of '99, probably the single most significant change in the Java server-side landscape has been the release of the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE). Although we covered many of the elements of J2EE in the first edition of the book, many things have changed.
J2EE represents a serious attempt by Sun to make Java not just a viable language, but more importantly a viable platform for enterprise development. This book is about how to use Java for enterprise development, using the J2EE runtime architecture.
Wide range of technologies including: J2EE, RMI, JDBC, JNDI, LDAP, XML, XSLT, Servlets, JSP, EJB, JMS, JavaMail, CORBA, Performance, Scalability, Unit Testing, and Debugging
Benefits and limits of the typical real-world vendor implementations of the J2EE specification
The resulting practical aspects of real-word design using the J2EE technologies
Publisher's Notes This book is for experienced Java developers building n-tier/enterprise applications and developers who bought Professional Java Server Programming (1861002777) and want to learn how to take server-side Java development to the next stage.
