Great Book
I actually had the author of this book as my teacher in pharamcy school. I took his class in the spring of 2005 and he uses this book in his lecture. It really is a great book! It gives a lot of stories throughout the book that give real life examples of what can happen in a pharmacy. It points out the good products from within a class of medications, while also pointing out the bad in other ...

This is simply the most comprehensive book ever written on the TCP/IP protocol stack. It's crystal clear and utterly lucid. Stevens tome leads the reader logically, methodically and effortlessly through all of the layers of ...

Jews have been the victims not only of the holocaust, but of slavery in Egypt and later, pogroms and persecution from at least 70 A.D. when the Romans destroyed the Second Temple and set about trying to re-enslave the Jews.

One of Two Must-Have UNIX Books
This is one of two must-have UNIX books ("UNIX Network Programming" and "Advanced Programming for the UNIX Environment"). After I had been using UNIX for a long time and was getting into more advanced UNIX programming about a decade ago, these two books were recommended. I checked around and made comparisons. Sure enough, I had to agree. I bought both of them and use them a lot, even when doing ...

Great book: get the 2nd edition
The second edition was published in June 2005. Unless you're a computer historian, get the new one: (...) Great book. Marc Rochkind's book is also very good and surprisingly non-overlapping, considering.

A Unix Bible
I have been actively involved in computer software/hardware for close to 20 years and have purchased probably 200+ books in this time period. Over 75% I wish I hadn't purchased. This book is probably in my top 10 however. This book is what's called a "Bible". It's an authoritive reference on Unix networking and communications (ipc/rpc) and much else. I equate it to the Kernighan & Ritchie C book, ...

This is a great product. I found out why it was only a dollar. It is the outdated edition. Was updated in 2006. This is the 2000 edition. It was in new condition however.

A sad story with a happy ending.
This book repeatedly illustrates one idea. The idea is that you usually cannot sue the government for failing to protect you from violent criminals. It covers stories from each of the United States as well as some nearby places like Canada and the U.S. Virgin Islands. There are many sad examples of when people have relied on the government for protection. After they were hurt or killed, ...

This is a bible, sliced into 3 neat pieces to explain and demonstrate everything related to TCP/IP right from the 0's and 1's in the packet. It is something like a must have set of books for someone who really wants to know the basics of networking right from its foundations.

Paul Bunyan Legends
I'm a big fan when publishers decide to reprint out-of-print titles. The University of Minnesota Press, in conjunction with Fesler-Lampert Minnesota Heritage Book Series, has been doing just this the last few years by reprinting a few of the fairy tale collections illustrated by Wanda Gag and most recently a collection of Paul Bunyan legends. The new title, Legends of Paul Bunyan edited by ...
