Nagios: System and Network Monitoring

Wolfgang Barth

No Starch Press, 2008

Best for Nagios admins who want specific details on plug-ins
I recently received review copies of Pro Nagios 2.0 (PN2) by James Turnbull and Nagios: System and Network Monitoring (NSANM) by Wolfgang Barth. I read PN2 first, then NSANM. Both are excellent books, but I expect potential readers want to know which is best for ...

Tao Te Ching (Barnes & Noble Classics)

Lao Tzu

Barnes & Noble Classics, 2005

The Perfect Book that can be reviewed is not the Perfect Book!
This was the first time I ever studied the classic of philosophy, the 'Tao Te Ching.' The notes by Yi-Ping Ong are exceedingly helpful, especially considering that I am a silly Westerner that is positively ignorant about Chinese history and culture. Her introduction ...

A. C. Ping

Da Capo Press, 2004

Be ready for "Be" to change your life
If you want to change your life, "Be" will help you do it. If you don't want to change your life, then you probably wouldn't be attracted to this book in the first place. I like "Be" because it is to the point, non-preachy, written in an almost conversational style, ...

Fascinating Plot - Superb Translation
