Transformers: Target 2006 (Transformers (Titan) (Graphic Novels))

4 reviews
Simon Furman, Geoff Senior, ...

Titan Books, 2003

A Must for Any Transfan
"Target: 2006" is the story arc that fully propelled the UK Transformer comics into the limelight; talk to any Transformer fan, and they'll probably tell you that the UK stories were vastly superior to the US comics at the time. "Target: 2006" is a testimony to this. The story is quiet different from the US staple, and introduced many characters that the US readers never got to meet: Ultra ...

Sams Publishing, 1995

Want only 1 ODBC book? This is it.
I have used this book for two or three years now in my VB consulting business. I find almost all the answers I need in it. These folks explain how ODBC works from the ground up. Once you get past the theory there are nicely organized chapters covering everything from how to connect to what you do once you're connected. There are lots of C and VisualBasic examples, and as far as I can ...

Teach Yourself Activex Programming in 21 Days (Teach Yourself Series)

3 reviews
Sanders, Jr. Kaufman, Jeff Perkins, ...

Sams Publishing, 1996

Everything you ever wanted to know but were afraid to ask...
Very helpful and comprehensive tome that takes the web object neophyte all the way to ActiveX Wizard. Earns the full four @'s from this reader/programmer wannabe. There is quite possibly more information here on Microsoft's ActiveX technology than any one person can absorb, but just a little is enough to add all manner of flash and dazzle to anyone's website ...in something less than 21 days ...

PostgreSQL (Linux)

Muska & Lipman/Premier-Trade, 2001

A good introduction
I looked through several PostgreSQL books before deciding to buy this one. It had everything I needed to get PostgreSQL up and running in Linux. I especially like the sections on the different API's available. It covers more languages and has more details about the API's than the other books I saw, which is surprising for a book that's not that big. The sections on PL/PGSQL and the Tcl interface ...

Sams, 1995

Good SQL guide - straight to the point
I knew little about SQL when I picked up this book, but I have learned exactly what I needed for my project. I am still using it for reference sometimes. A good book to learn about SQL syntax!

Teach yourself SQL in 21 Days
SQL is a powerful Language to know and also to understand how to managing database, i bought a book called teach yourself SQL in 21 days, it is a great book to learn and how to use it. But, the only thing is, it needed a CD that come with the book, this way we can just use it like other books that with SQL scripts and sample tables or a pre-compiler so and so..or by creating many different ...

Dungeons & Dragons: The Shackled City Adventure Path (Dungeons & Dragons S.)

6 reviews
Jesse Decker, James Jacobs, ...

Paizo Publishing, LLC., 2005

Great value in a great adventure
The price tag may look large for a "book", but only to those who haven't been following Dungeon. This single book (and it's a HUGE book) contains the adventures that were published one-to-an-issue in an 11-issue run of Dungeon magazine. To get those individual issues now would cost quite a bit more, and you would still need to go download plenty of suplemental material from Paizo's site. The ...
