Don't Let the Gimmicks Fool You
Although I was initially put off by the non-serious cover and gimmicky premise, I decided to trust to O'Reilly and give this book a try. That turned out to be a great decision! Be forewarned that the real title should be "Head First AGILE Software Development," so don't expect other methodologies, but it definitely delivers. Whether you're just beginning to take the plunge into agile ...

Great Book!
This was my first book from Head First, and i love it! The book uses an easy approach (besides the schema in each chapter) to make you understand the different patterns. I think the book is good for junior and mid senior people.

Delivers as Promised
Background: After getting a degree in engineering and landing a job finance, I was tasked with writing an extensive analysis program in C#. Eventually I hobbled through the first draft and many many updates using dry, technical reference books and online searches. Recently, I decided to increase the breadth of knowledge to take on other programming projects of my own choosing. Approach: ...

Another bullseye from HeadFirst!
Web development is not my primary job so I was looking for something to give me a better understanding of JavaScript without too great an investment of time and money. This book is it! Amazing detail but incredibly easy to follow. The book is simple to scan for overviews of each chapter, which lets users with some background skip what they are already familiar with and jump into sections they ...

You could pass with just this book and stay awake doing it
I pretty much passed the test by just working through the 600 pages of this book. It uses pictures, quizzes, crosswords and games to help you get the basic concepts and necessary formulas down. You'll go comatose if you try to tread the PMBOK itself and go blind while reading the Mulcahy prep book. I would use this book, do extra sample questions and look up answers that you get wrong ...

Eleanor Roosevelt, Vol. 1: 1884-1933
I happened across Vol. 2 of this biography and procrastinated on actually reading it for several months--it is a LARGE volume and I was kind of put off at the seemingly enormous task of reading the tome. Once I started reading, I stayed with it. The book is well written and I found Eleanor to be a most intriguing figure. Something that kept me interested was the similarity between the issues in ...

Deviation from the Standard
§ Ok, I'm almost 250 pages into this 650 page Head First Statistics and my head is not hurting at all. I think that is a function of the brainwork and sweat that went into putting this book together. More than that really -- with Head First books I am always also impressed with the quantity of organizational effort brought to bear to distill so much creativity in content. Statistics. We ...

A good introduction to Ajax
This book is for people who already know HTML very well and are familiar - but not necessarily experts - with CSS and Javascript. If you are not in that category you should probably check out "Head First HTML and CSS" first. This is not a reference book, but a book for understanding and, more importantly remembering Ajax via an unusual presentation style. That unusual presentation style includes ...

We all learn in different ways
Some people prefer dense reference-like texts while others get droopy eyelids after just a few pages. Face it--this is complex material we are trying to learn.
