Books by Graeme Simsion

The downloadable, audiobook edition of Graeme Simsions prize-winning romantic comedy The Rosie Project, read by the actor Dan OGrady. Meet Don. Don is a genetics professor who just might be somewhere on the autistic spectrum. He looks a little like Gregory Peck and is getting married. He just doesnt know who to yet. But he has designed a very detailed questionnaire to help him find the perfect woman. And its definitely not Rosie. Absolutely, completely, definitely not. Rosie, meanwhile, isnt looking for love; shes looking for her biological father. Sometimes, though, you dont find love: love finds you...

Rosie-Resultatet er den triumferende afslutning på Graeme Simsions charmerende bestsellerserie om en usædvanlig mand, der søger at skabe plads til sig selv og sin familie i en sædvanlig verden.Don Tillman er tilbage i Melbourne efter ti år i New York – nu hustruen Rosie og sønnen Hudson rigere end sidst han boede i Australien. Hans særlige tilgang til livet skaber dog endnu en gang udfordringer i arbejdet som professor i genetik, og samtidig kæmper Rosie med sin karriere. En del af løsningen på parrets problemer viser sig overraskende nok at være at åbne en cocktailbar. Men deres vigtigste udfordring bliver at guide Hudson i en verden, der skal lære at komme overens med drengens ekstraordinære personlighed. Og for at blive den bedst mulige forælder, må Don igen søge hjælp hos nye som gamle venner.

Rosie-Effekten er den charmerende fortsættelse til Graeme Simsions populære debutroman Rosie-Projektet og en humoristisk beskrivelse af at forsøge at forberede sig på det uforudsigelige.Don Tillman er tilbage – han er stadig professor i genetik, ligner fortsat Gregory Peck en smule, men er nu gift med sin Rosie og bosat i New York. Og da Rosie uventet bliver gravid, bliver der vendt op og ned på hans velorganiserede liv.Don bereder sig på faderrollen med vanlig systematik. Men hans anstrengelser bringer ham blot på kant med både loven og de to krav, Rosie har opstillet for de næste ni måneder: 1) Ingen hypergrundige forberedelser til familielivet og 2) Absolut ingen stressende begivenheder.

Mød Don. Don er genetikprofessor og befinder sig muligvis et sted på det autistiske spektrum. Han ligner Gregory Peck en smule. Og så skal han giftes – han ved bare endnu ikke med hvem. Men han har udarbejdet et utroligt detaljeret spørgeskema, som skal hjælpe ham til at finde den perfekte kvinde. Og det er afgjort ikke Rosie. Absolut, afgjort og under ingen omstændigheder Rosie.Rosie selv er slet ikke på udkig efter kærlighed; hun leder tværtimod efter sin biologiske far. Undervejs i deres parallelle søgen må Don og Rosie dog indse, at kærlighed ofte ser anderledes ud, end man forventer, og at det ofte ikke er dig, der finder kærligheden, men kærligheden, der finder dig …Rosie-Projektet er en rørende og underholdende roman for alle og enhver, der nogensinde er gået kompromisløst efter livet og kærligheden på trods af overvældende forhindringer.

This book is for practitioners and academics who have learned the conventions and rules of data modelling and are looking for a deeper understanding of the discipline. The coverage of theory includes a detailed review of the extensive literature on data modelling and logical database design, referencing nearly 500 publications, with a strong focus on their relevance to practice. The practice component incorporates the largest-ever study of data modelling practitioners, involving over 450 participants in interviews, surveys and data modelling tasks. The results challenge many long-standing held assumptions about data modelling and will be of interest to academics and practitioners alike. Graeme Simsion brings to the book the practical perspective and intellectual clarity that have made his "Data Modelling Essentials" a classic in the field. He begins with a question about the nature of data modelling (design or description), and uses it to illuminate such issues as the definition of data modelling, its philosophical underpinnings, inputs and deliverables, the necessary behaviours and skills, the role of creativity, product diversity, quality measures, personal styles, and the differences between experts and novices. "Data Modeling: Theory and Practice" is essential reading for anyone involved in data modelling practice, research, or teaching.
