Book Description
Stephanie had a rat for a husband. But after 13 years of marriage and two kids, she was devastated when he left her for a younger woman. Suddenly Stephanie was alone. And after months of trying to find a little romance on New York's wild singles circuit, she was ready to give up, reconciled to just raising her two great, but outspoken, kids. Then a spur-of-the-moment trip to Paris changed everything. She met him on the Left Bank. Peter Baker was a marvelously handsome high-tech entrepreneur also visiting the city. Stephanie was certain it couldn't possibly work. Peter was just too perfect. But much to her amazement, he contacted her when they returned to New York. And at the Long Island rental cottage she shared with her kids, Stephanie embarked on a bizarre and hilarious adventure beyond her wildest dreams. Shy, serious Peter, chairman of a bionic enterprise, was supposed to be away on business. Instead, he's standing at her door, wearing day-glo satin and rhinestones. Naturally, Stephanie thinks it's a joke--until the truth suddenly dawns: this isn't Peter playing a role. This is his double! Calling himself Paul Klone, this wild, uninhibited creature isn't even remotely like Peter except for his identically sexy good looks. This uproarious novel explores the outrageous love triangle that develops between Stephanie, Peter...and the Klone. In a wickedly funny, right-on-target look at finding the perfect mate in an imperfect world, bestselling novelist Danielle Steel reveals insights into the human heart that have made her novels #1 bestsellers around the world.

Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
The HCMOS Pocket Guide covers all commonly used HCMOS special devices on the market. Being an independent publication, it is able to provide a uniquely comprehensive listing of HCMOS products for all major manufacturers. The HCMOS Pocket Guide also breaks new ground with the format that is clear and easy.

Each page describes one component only and is divided into eight sections. The first section illustrates the device schematic using a clear and simple logic diagram of the internal structure of the component. The next section contains a brief description of the component and is followed by full details on operating the component, describing input signals and levels at individual pins. This indicates how the device is controlled and its resulting output signals. The fourth section lists major applications, while the next two sections contain essential data for that particular device in abbreviated form and a list of the relevant manufacturers. The last two sections contain the device name and number, highlighted for easy reference. The HCMOS Pocket Guide extracts all the essential data from the manufacturers own data books and presents it in a clear and concise format. This guide is an e-book publication of the series containing: CMOS Pocket Guide, Part 1 (Standard components) CMOS Pocket Guide, Part 2 (Special components) TTL Pocket Guide, Part 1 (7400-74200) TTL Pocket Guide, Part 2 (74201-74640) TTL Pocket Guide, Part 3 (74641 – 7430640)
