Pragmatic Project Automation: How to Build, Deploy, and Monitor Java Apps

Mike Clark

The Pragmatic Programmers, 2004

Great book on software project automation
This book is the third volume in the Pragmatic Starter kit, but is self-contained enough that it can be read on its own. 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 ...

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 ...

Professional ASP.NET Web Services with VB.NET

Andreas Eide, Christopher Miller, ...

Wrox Press, 2002

now in VB.NET - and for version 1
I reviewed the orginal version of this book which was in C#. I've been lucky enought ot get my hands on the new VB.NET edition and it is even better than the original. I am more used to VB as it is, and I spent quite a lot of time translating some of the code snippets ...

Funk Drumming: Innovative Grooves and Advanced Concepts (Book & CD)

Mike Clark

Hal Leonard Corporation, 2005

Addictive funk beats
There are over 150 examples of funk beats in this book, and 89 of them are included on the cd, played by Mike Clark. The beats in this book are so addictive that I spent three days just playing the first 3 grooves in this book, just trying to get the groove and feel ...

Professional ASP.NET Web Services

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 ...

Swim, Bike, Run

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 ...

Advanced Rails Recipes

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!

Bitter EJB

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 ...

The Critical Experience: Literary Reading, Writing, and Criticism

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 ...

Face/Off

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 ...

Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide 2008 (Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide)

, 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 ...
