131.Windows XP For Dummies. 2nd Edition by: Andy Rathbone October 08, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £11.04 You Save: £5.95 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.61
Not much to say really.. this is a great book for somebody who has no experience of using a computer or wants a refresher of the basics. A great place to start off but probably a little too basic if you have some computing experience.

132.Stop Stealing Sheep and Find Out How Type Works by: Erik Spiekermann, E.M Ginger July 15, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £22.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.79 You Save: £9.20 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £13.70
This book gets you thinking about typography rather than teaching you the art - although there are a few practical tips you will pick up along the way. Written in a witty and entertaining style it is a worthwhile introductory read for those just getting into typography.

133.The Art of Agile Development by: James Shore, Shane Warden October 26, 2007

After reading a couple of books on Agile, The Art of Agile Development does the best job of presenting all the ideas and concepts needed to start putting it all into practice. Previously I've been left with questions about how to go about implementing certain ideas or mis-understood key concepts, I felt able enough to start putting a lot of Agile and XP concepts into practice straight away. The material itself is very digestable and written in a great down to earth manner. Rather then being a case of teacher lecturing to their student, it felt a lot like someone who's been there and gone through all the pains before hand, had come round to visit one afternoon to tell you what they had learnt and what they believe works best. ...

134.Head First C# (Brain-Friendly Guides) by: Andrew Stellman, Jennifer Greene November 26, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £30.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £21.69 You Save: £9.30 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £18.44
I needed a quick introduction to C# to help me to build an ASP.Net web application. I really needed to understand the coding that was given to me so that I could make some modifications, and this excellent book did the trick. It appears light-hearted on the surface, but actually makes some serious inroads into the language, and the information really sticks.I feel confident with C# now and have gained more insight into programming in general. The application that I was working on was a success, and I owe it all to this excellent book. If you are looking for an intro into programming with C# then I cannot imagine a better place to begin than with this book.

135.User Stories Applied: For Agile Software Development (Addison-Wesley Signature Series) by: Mike Cohn March 18, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £26.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £16.19 You Save: £10.80 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £23.54
We're just launching a new project, and we'll be using Agile for the first time. I've found this book very useful for telling me exactly what I need to do when. The book is well structured and very readable. As a bonus, it doesn't just deal with how User Stories are Applied, but also has a good writeup about why they work, which I think you'll find useful if you want to convince your boss to try out Agile practices. The case study at the end ties everything together nicely, my only critisim being that it ends rather abruptly. For a more extensive case study, covering several iterations, and not just the planning stage, see Mike Cohn's other book, Agile Estimating and Planning (Robert C. Martin).

136.How Computers Work by: Ron White, Timothy Edward Downs November 29, 2007

I bought this book for my wife who had no clue whatsoever about computers. Although she didn't read it cover to cover (she had no desire to understand some of the printing technology) she did want to understand the basics and simple terminology. The book is full of great colourful picture, easy to understand explanation and could be understoof and read by most 10 year olds upwards. Finally she knows the difference between memory and storage. (Which is more than I can say for some PC shop sales staff) She's now feels far more confident about computers and indeed a few months later when she ordered her new laptop I could hear her discussing confidently with online sales about her specification in terms of screen resolution, Hard drive capacity, memory, video card capabilities ...

138.Information Dashboard Design: The Effective Visual Communication of Data by: Stephen Few June 11, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £24.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £17.49 You Save: £7.50 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £11.76
I'm about half-way through as I write this review but I am already very impressed with this book. Few has an easy-to-read style that's not full of fluff or pompous nonsense, and he provides sensible advise for producing effective designs. The book begins by defining the term "information dashboard": the definition is suitably broad that you may realise that solutions you've build before would fit in and would therefore have benefited from the design advice given in the book. To make his points about poor design, Few then uses a selection of examples found on the web. Many of these are eye catching and graphically pleasing - but the commentary makes you appreciate the problems each exhibits. In the middle of the book, Few describes accepted scientific theories about ... Read More:

139.Canon Speedlite System Digital Field Guide by: J. Dennis Thomas April 10, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £13.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.09 You Save: £4.90 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £6.31
The best thing about this book is that the author gives full data showing f/stop and shutter speed for each image. However, for quite a few of the author's images this technical data will serve better as an example of how to produce snap shots. I was disappointed to find chapters on portrait posing and composition. There are specialised books that cover these subjects, and frankly they cover them much better. I'd only recommend this book if you are a beginner who is looking to use off-camera flash for the first time. Certainly not a book for advanced or pro photographers.

I've been developing .Net applications since version 1.0 and wanted to use this book to polish what I know and fill in any gaps. Unfortunately this book has proved to be almost of no use whatsoever. The first hard lesson to learn is that the book MUST be read alongside the substantial list of corrections available on the Microsoft website. If you don't heed this warning you quickly form the opinion that not only has the book not been proof read by a third person but that it's not even be proof read by the authors. The second major problem is that the combination of authors working on the book has led to an inconsistent style and tone. In one section you might be hand held through an exercise as if you don't know what the keyboard is and a mere handful of ... Read More:
