The Early Hungarians in the Light of Recent Historical Research
Book information
Description
This volume shows to the English reader the origin of the Hungarians and their first civilization, — according to recent historical research. In the new light, the Hungarians seem to have come from the Ancient Near East — Mesopotamia, Egypt and Syria — where the first Higher Civilization flourished. Their westward moving tribes reached the Middle Danube basin already in the Neolithic times and had laid the foundation of the future Hungary. In the subsequent periods Scythians, Huns and half-Turkised Arpad-Hungarians added their own ethnic and cultural contribution to the existing heritage, whereby the People acquired its final characteristics by the end of the IXth century A.D.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
