I know! Even all of the extra information they added to lengthen it didn't ruin the representation of the book. The makeup was great too!

Features new to Windows XP
Windows XP introduced many features not found in previous versions of Windows. With the introduction of Windows XP, the C++ based software-only GDI+ subsystem was introduced to replace certain GDI functions. GDI+ adds anti-aliased 2D graphics, textures, floating point coordinates, gradient shading, more complex path management, bicubic filtering, intrinsic support for modern graphics-file formats like JPEG and PNG, and support for composition of affine transformations in the 2D view pipeline. GDI+ uses ARGB values to represent color. Use of these features is apparent in Windows XP's user interface (transparent desktop icon labels, drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop, shadows under menus, translucent blue selection rectangle in Windows Explorer, sliding task panes and taskbar buttons), and several of its applications such as Microsoft Paint, Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, "Photo Printing Wizard", My Pictures Slideshow screensaver, and their presence in the basic graphics layer greatly simplifies implementations of vector-graphics systems such as Flash or SVG.
Capital, Volume I
Capital. Volume I: The Process of Production of Capital () is an 1867 economics book by German philosopher Karl Marx. In this, the only part of Marx's multi-volume "" to be published during his lifetime, Marx critiques capitalism chiefly from the standpoint of its production processes. After Marx's death, Friedrich Engels compiled and expanded his friend's notes into volumes "II" (1885) and "III" (1894). In the years since its publication "Capital. Volume I" has come to be considered as a major work of modern economic thought, alongside the likes of Smith's "The Wealth of Nations" (1776) and Keynes's "General Theory" (1936).
Library
A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources, made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing. It provides physical or digital access to material, and may be a physical building or room, or a virtual space, or both. A library's collection can include books, periodicals, newspapers, manuscripts, films, maps, prints, documents, microform, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases, and other formats. Libraries range in size from a few shelves of books to several million items. In Latin and Greek, the idea of a bookcase is represented by "Bibliotheca" and "Bibliothēkē" (Greek: βιβλιοθήκη): derivatives of these mean "library" in many modern languages, e.g.

Lithuanian accentuation
In the Lithuanian language, heavy syllables (those with stress) may be pronounced in one of two prosodically distinct ways that are determined by accent and pitch. One way is the "acute" or "falling" accent. It may be described as sudden, sharp or rough. The phrase, "tvirtaprãdė príegaidė" has the literal meaning, "firm-start accent". The second way is the "circumflex" or "rising" accent. It may be described as continued, mild or smooth. The word "tvirtagãlė" has the literal meaning, "firm-end". Short (or light) syllables may have stress without the differentiation of an accent. Heavy syllables distinguished by an accent include:  In mixed acute diphthongs beginning with "i" or "u", the acute mark is replaced by a grave; this reflects the fact that, in the standard language (but not in some dialects), the first part of the diphthong is short.
South African labour law
South African labour law regulates the relationship between employers, employees and trade unions in the Republic of South Africa. The Native Labour Regulations Act 1911 prohibited strikes by trade unions, introduced wage ceilings and a pass system for moving around jobs. Over 70,000 Chinese labourers were brought in, and used by landowners to undercut the wages of other workers. Among white workers, there was significant unrest, and major strikes took place in 1907, 1913, 1914 and 1922  For a period of sixteen years, from 1979 to 1995, several critical developments occurred in the field of labour law in South Africa, beginning with a radical change in the first of these years, when a significant Commission of Enquiry was held, resulting in the establishment of an Industrial Court, which was given extensive powers to mould, change, shape and develop the law.
