Book Reviews

From time to time, when I read a technical books or other books of interest to computer users, I write a review for Slashdot. I have collected some of these reviews below. Click on the title to read the review, or on the picture of the book cover to buy the book from Amazon.com.

Note that each of these is formatted as submitted to Slashdot. As their submission requirements have changed, so has my formatting. Also, my standards have generally gotten harder over time.
