Developing XML Solutions (DV-MPS General) 14 reviews
Jake Sturm
Microsoft Press, 2000
Lack of direction; very dry and boring read.
Not only did this book fail to provide me with any succinct information with regard to the problems I'm attempting to solve, it was also a very dry and boring read. The author did not present concepts in the order in which one would regularly learn them. Given this, it is highly unlikely that the ...

The Bible, Third Edition
+ Awesome
The finest review of this book I can give is simply this: I bought the first edition in 1999, the second edition in 2003, the third edition in 2007, and as long as Danny Goodman and O'Reilly keep up the good work, I'll buy the fourth edition in 2011. There is no more indispensible book available ...

Regular Expressions: The Complete Tutorial1 review
Jan Goyvaerts
Lulu.com, 2006
A decent book, needs improvement
I actually read the online version of the book. It is available at regular-expressions.info and is very good for a quick reference.
Bad Points
The order of the chapters needs some improvement. Chapter 10 covers the * and the + operators. But the author actually uses them in previous chapters. ...

Sybex
Sybex, 2001
Outstanding reference book for Linux!
+ DESIGNED FOR BOTH ADVENTURERS AND ARDENT PALS
+ Great Overview
When I first saw this book I was sceptical of how good it would be. The paper is not especially good quality and the price is cheap .... But don't let looks deceive you - 'Linux Complete' is excellent! The sheer weight of material covered in this book is impressive on its own merit. But for such an ...

Before purchasing this book, I had purchased about a half dozen books on css, one from the same author. I was really surprised to find new ways to use css that I hadn't learned in the other books. Each topic is discussed completely and in detail. For a reference on css, this book is the best ...

Professional ASP.NET 1.1: Updated and Tested for Final Release of ASP.NET v1.1 (Programmer to Programmer) 7 reviews

Wiley Publishing, Inc., 2004
Thorough, good examples, screenshot heavy
+ Most Strategic ASP.NET Book Going!
+ Book if you are serious about getting ASP .NET knowledge
This is one of those great all-in-one tome books. Some of which are great, like this one. While others are little more than doorstops. The text is well written, though, like most Wrox books it relies heavily on code to do most of the exposition. Almost every topic you can think of is covered. Basic ...
