Java Persistence with Hibernate is the new bible of Hibernate. As a major revision of the popular Hibernate in Action, it builds on the same single example application to introduce and explain the latest Hibernate 3.2 in detail. In addition, the new and significantly improved EJB 3.0 Java Persistence standard, and how Hibernate implements it, is covered completely. All possible basic and advanced Hibernate mappings are shown in this book, with hundreds of examples in Hibernate's XML format, including Java Persistence annotations for JDK 5.0. Readers can get started with Hibernate and Java Persistence at the same time. All examples — APIs, queries, fetching strategies, caching, transactions, conversations, and many more — are presented in all variations, so they can compare and evaluate the new Java Persistence specification easily. If you are an experienced Hibernate user, this book provides the insight you need to benefit immediately from the new standard, its rich programming model, and the latest version of Hibernate.

Skill Sharpeners, Third Edition, by Judy DeFilippo and Charles Skidmore, is a four-level series especially designed for students whose skills in English require strengthening. By introducing basic skills tied to classroom subjects in a simple grammatical framework, the series helps to prepare these students for academic success. The Skill Sharpeners series bridges the gap between English Language Learning and regular school subjects. With all students, it reinforces confidence and self-esteem. Each level of the series offers exercises to sharpen both language and subject-area skills. Students interpret graphs and charts, read maps, solve math word problems, and learn library and study skills. They sharpen comprehension skills as they read about history, science, and American culture. And they deepen their understanding of basic English structure. Lessons cover skills required on most middle school state-competency tests. The Third Edition of Skill Sharpeners preserves all the features of the earlier edition and updates content. A favorite with teachers nationwide, Skill Sharpeners remains dedicated to helping students sharpen their skills in all facets of English communication.

Engaging Writing: Paragraphs and Essays, by Mary Fitzpatrick, provides students with essential skills and practice in writing for academic success. Opening with a motivating reading, each chapter provides thematically linked models and exercises. The text guides students step-by-step through the writing process, illustrating appropriate organizational patterns for each rhetorical mode. Themes such as memory, cultural identity, and teamwork prepare high-intermediate to advanced students to make the transition to mainstream classes.
