Andy Harris

Wiley, 2007

Don't judge this book by it's cover!
Don't judge this book by it's cover! For some reason, this book is part of a series of Wiley books, and they all have the same cover. This is a book about learning how to program computer games using the Python programming language and the PyGame package. PyGame is a Python wrapper around the SDL library. This book offers step-by-step tutorials that introduce game programming with ...

Course Technology PTR, 2004

Works for Macs, too!
When it comes to programming, Mac users appear to be at a disadvantage. However, with a little research via the internet, I've been able to take advantage of the programming material that is mostly geared towards Windows. This book is no exception. The most difficult part of the process is getting PHP and MySQL set up and that has nothing to do with this book! A quick search on the internet shows ...

After Subculture: Critical Studies in Contemporary Youth Culture

Palgrave Macmillan, 2004

The concept of "subculture" has long been of significant importance in research on youth, style, deviance and popular culture. Although in more recent years subculture has been the subject of sustained critique, it still provides a valuable point of reference for study and research. This text offers students an up-to-date and wide-ranging account of new developments in youth culture research that reject, refine or reinvent the concept of ...

Weldon Owen, 2001

A Collection of Only the Best!
"Good taste is one of those elusive qualities that most people find hard to define, even though they know it when they see it. In general, however, it denotes quality, simplicity, and ease. When applied to food, taste is also present when good ingredients are cooked in an honest way that highlights the essence of their taste, texture, and appearance." -Chuck Williams Chuck Williams' philosophy ...

Modern Greek

Chronicle Books, 2002

Great Greek Homecooking!
I picked up this Greek cookbook mostly because of the wonderful photographs. A novice cook like myself feels much more confident if they can see what the dish is supposed to look like when cooked. Now I have to say that on top of making these recipes for the first time, I also can not cook/bake with gluten so I've had to substitute some of the ingredients with gluten-free versions...but all of ...

For Dummies, 2005

Great for Beginners. Highly recommended
I bought about 4 books about getting started in flash and gaming, and this one was far and away the best. Great examples, step by step walkthroughs. I actually still use some of the examples as referece in creating new games. Highly recommended for beginners.

Captain Corelli's Island: Cephallonia

Andy Harris

Anova Books, 2000

Excellent Pictoral/History of Island
Having visited Cephallonia twice, 1984 and 2000, we were amazed to receive this book for Christmas and fell in love with the island all over again. The book gives you a well-written history but "a picture is worth a 1000 words" is so applicable here. There are many other beautiful areas on Cephallonia then are dipicted in the book (there must be a limit somewhere) but I hope anyone who really ...

Course Technology PTR, 2002

another excellent beginners book by Harris
Let me say first off Im a big fan of Andy Harris's beginning programming books. If I had discovered them back in 2001 when I started programming, I would have saved myself lots of wasted time and anguish. Now for the other posters who are complaining about PocketC being used as framework for Palm programming, let me tell you that there is simply no such thing as a Absolute Beginners book in ...

Dragon Quest (Fantasy Adventures)

Andy Dixon, Felicity Brooks

Usborne Books, 2005

Part "Seek & Find," Part Logic Puzzle and Part Story
I bought this book for my eight year old because of the gorgeous illustrations. I'm not much at all for seek and find books, but I thought he would like it. I found, however, that when he and I sat down together we became completely cuaght up in the book. It is rather difficult, but I guess some kids are better at it than others because Dylan loved it and did much better than I did. ...

Key to the front door of Java
I was having difficulties in my Java course and needed help getting through the front door. This book gave lots of examples of code and even explained the details of it. Most importantly, it was easy to read and didn't loose me with lots of technical jargon. I highly recommend this book as a good stepping-stone to building a good understanding of Java.
