Great For Passing The Exam
I reviewed three books for the exam; Microsoft's, Chris Sells', and the Exam Cram book. I could have passed the exam with this book alone. Be aware that this book is only good for passing the exam, though. If you want to write a real Windows-based Application, you'll have to implement many more complicated topics than are covered here. As usual, the accompanying practice exam on the CD is not ...

KALANI WORKS, MS DOESN'T!!!
DON'T BOTHER WITH MICROCRAP BOOKS!! I studied using the Microsoft Self-Paced Training Books and didn't come close to passing. Bought this book based on reviews and studied from cover to cover. I PASSED!! This covers all subject matter and little intricacies of test material and test taking. There were small issues with the questions in the book. Suggestion: Take tests at Microsoft site ...

The only resource needed for 70-320
I skipped reviewing the Microsoft study guide and used this book as my primary reference in passing the exam. Each component on this exam (web services, windows services, enterprise services) has its own architecture and interface. This book did a great job of distilling that information in a way that was easy to understand. I especially liked how the chapters were organized to introduce a ...

Together in Rhythm: A Facilitator's Guide to Drum Circle Music (Book & DVD)

Alfred Publishing Company, 2004

Great Intro to Drum Circles!
I have really enjoyed this book and video. Kalani explains various methods in the book, but it's very helpful to watch him execute them on the DVD. I even like the section of the DVD where he plays various instruments to demonstrate them. Being a very amateur percussionist, I had never thought of some of the techniques he demonstrates.

Hawaiian Street Names: The Complete Guide to Oahu Street Names

1 review
Rich Budnick

Aloha Pr, 1987

Very Good
This is a good reference book, it is even endorsed by Samuel H. Elbert and he wrote the forward. Elbert is part of the team of Pukui/Elbert that produced Place Names of Hawaii, which I also recommend, even more highly. "Hawaiian Street Names" focuses strictly on Oahu street names and includes many street names that are not included in "Place Names of Hawaii". For instance, Kuhio (there should be ...

West African Drum & Dance (A Yankadi-Macrou Celebration) Book & CD, DVD

1 review
Kalani; Ryan M. Camara

Alfred Publishing, 2007

Thoroughly honoring the Susu drum and dance tradition while keeping it accessible!
There are quite a few books out there offering "West African Rhythms." Some are better than others, but in terms of cultural relevance, most if not all of these books seem to be missing something. They tend to be big on the "rhythms," and not so big on much else. More time may be spent on echaufements and solo lines than the songs, other instruments, and most importantly, the meaning of that ...

Building Real Life Systems with C# and .NET
This book is designed for the intermediate level developer who wants to learn how to develop web services using Microsoft's C# in the .NET framework, and for those who want to pass the 70-320 examination. This is not a 'cram for the test' type book but instead gives you the information you need to do the job, and incidentally pass the test. It is not a complete book on C# or .NET or even the ...

The brief, free-verse poems touch upon ...

ASP.NET 1.0 Namespace Reference with C#

1 review
Amit Kalani, Dave Gerding, ...

Wrox Press, 2002

Great reference with examples
Finally, a book I have been looking for; a readable reference with solid examples. Does a great job on the namespaces it covers. Looking forward to similiar books to cover additional namespaces. This is not a tutorial. Gets straight to the point and provides you with the information you need to use a class and its associated methods and properties. Provides just enough background to provide ...

Syngress, 2002

Couple of gems, the rest are rocks!
Reviewing books is a very subjective process. The review is colored by personal reaction as your level of expertise runs up against who the authors and the editors expected as the prospective audience for the book. Given that my level of knowledge differs from another person who may be interested in a book, I will try to provide as much info as I can so that an interested party can make their own ...
