The first chapter starts with a story about how built-in automation makes everyone's life better-especially the developer's. Thus this book is really about letting the computer do boring, repetitive things so that developers can concentrate on what is new and interesting. The ...             Bitter EJB12 reviews Bruce Tate, Mike Clark, ... Manning Publications, 2003 Must read when considering/implementing EJBs This is a must read for everyone who either considers or is implementing EJB-based software. It is not a tutorial, it is the essence of experience, what to do and what not to do (or at least what to watch out for). In a team setting I would make this a mandatory reading.             Funk Drumming: Innovative Grooves and Advanced Concepts (Book & CD)6 reviews Mike Clark Hal Leonard Corporation, 2005 Your "Funk-Factor" Will Increase by 10 Points Like many drummers, I have marveled at Mike Clark's amazing rhythms on albums such as "Thrust", and have been left scratching my head wondering "how does he do that?" This book really broke down Mike's brand of highly syncopated, 16th-note funk for me, increased my understanding, and opened up a lot of doors for my drumming. It's full of practical examples, that you can actually use in a ...             Swim, Bike, Run4 reviews Wes Hobson, Clark Campbell, ... Human Kinetics Publishers, 2001 An Outstanding Book!! A fantastic book and on the "top two" of my recommended reading list for beginning triathletes. If you are going for detail and want in-depth and technical information on how to develop a training plan, go with the Triathlete's Training Bible. If you want a solid overview of the sport of triathlon, this is the book for you. Swim, Bike, Run is written in a very straight-forward style and gives ...             Advanced Rails Recipes6 reviews Mike Clark Pragmatic Bookshelf, 2008 Get it, it will pay for itself immediately. I went through this book cover-to-cover every few pages saying, 'Wow, I could have used/need that now!' If you're a RoR developer, you really should have this book on your shelf. I marked maybe 75% of the recipes as something I could use--worth it's weight in gold!             Superman Batman #50 Ed McGuiness 1:10 Variant Michael Greene, Mike Johnson DC Comics, 2008             Agile Web Development with Rails, 2nd Edition105 reviews David Hansson, Leon Breedt, ... Pragmatic Bookshelf, 2006 Great Book - But Wait to Buy This is THE book for Rails. Top notch...only WAIT to buy it. As others have said, there is a new edition coming out soon that covers Rails 2.0. Of course...if you can't wait, go to the publisher's web page. They are selling copies of this edition for 50% off, while supplies last. But, some of the code in this book will not work anymore in Rails 2.0. Still, a great book and well worth it even for ...             Professional ASP.NET Web Services12 reviews Andreas Eide, Chris Miller, ... Wrox Press, 2001 This book is for EXPERIENCED programmers I read the book several times. I did some of the examples. The examples worked with no changes necessary. On the [web page], the book has an errata list, which is pretty small. The source code for C# and VB are on the wrox website. This book is for EXPERIENCED programmers. Don't even try to read it if you have no prior knowledge of web services. The book has an excellent introduction to ...             Rhythm Combination (Video Workshop Series) Mike Clark, Paul Jackson Alfred Pub Co, 1992             ASP. Net Programmers Reference9 reviews Jason Bell, Mike Clark, ... Wrox Press, 2001 Excellent book as a reference ! Excellent book for ASP.net as a reference.             Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide 2008 (Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide)14 reviews, 2008 A MUST FOR MOVIEGOERS Anything we may say will add nothing about this abosolutely indispensable encyclopedia of movies which I keep by my bedside table. I've been getting regular up-to-date editions of Mr. Maltin's book and I've always found a guide to choose movies. You may not agree all the time on the comments but anyhow they're quite valuable. I've noticed though that in recent editions some movies have simply ...             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 ...             Web Services Business Strategies and Architectures6 reviews Mike Clark, Peter Fletcher, ... Wrox Press, 2002 Web Services - The Complete Picture! This book is an excellent compilation of 20 articles from leading experts in both the business strategy and technology infrastructure of deploying Web services. The book's forward includes an overview of Web services, the premise for their adoption, and how they are integral to e-business and the evolution of the Web as a business platform. Introductory chapters give a clear and concise ...             Face/Off3 reviews Clark Carlton, Mike HarperEntertainment, 1997 The book is filled with suspense and non-stop action. Face/Off gets my vote for an action-filled novel. The plot is well written and gives readers the same realism as if they were watching the motion picture. I love the surprises I have read throughout the book and wish every book could be written with such an appealing plot.             Beginning Web Programming using VB.NET and Visual Studio .NET6 reviews Daniel Cazzulino, Craig Bowes, ... Wrox Press, 2002 Foundational not Beginning Truely this is not a beginner's book but rather a foundational book. I've been studying the .Net Framework for just over a year now. During my studies, I've learned many sophisticated techniques; however, I have not be able to show what I know because I did know how to put it all together. It was like having all the pieces to the puzzle and not having a picture to guide the construction. ...             The Critical Experience: Literary Reading, Writing, and Criticism2 reviews David Cowles, Mike Austin Kendall Hunt Pub Co, 1994 An Intro to Critical Theory for the Rest of Us! This is a super introduction to various critical approaches. Unlike authors of other books of this kind, the authors of "The Critical Experience" write in easy-to-understand language rather than stilted Academian. It was probably not designed for MA students, or even for undergraduates who sit in the library, bantering about the benefits of new historicism and why relativism is impractical. Now, ...             Good Flight Simmer's Guide MK.II - 2003: The Centennial Guide for Computer Aviators: The Centennial Guide for ...

Motorbooks, 2006 Dave Perewitz has always let his work speak for itself: A brief glance at-let alone a ride on-one of his custom creations, with its perfect blend of engineering, design, aesthetics, performance, power, personality, and beauty, says volumes about why Dave is one of the top chopper builders in the world. Here, for the first time, Dave Perewitz tells his story. With journalist and longtime motorcyclist Mike Seate, Perewitz describes the long years, ...             Mordecai of Monterey3 reviews Keith Abbott City Miner Books, 1985 A witty portrayal of bohemian life in Big Sur 1970s Mordecai is a zen/bohemian who interacts with the entire social structure of the Big Sur and Monterey area through the moving and hauling business that he runs along with his irrepressible sidekick Buck.
