Sams Teach Yourself XML in 24 Hours, Complete Starter Kit (3rd Edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Fortunately I read this book before reading the two previous reviews. In the same way that no one should expect to be fluent in a foreign language after 24 hours, it takes longer to fully master XML. As an introductory text, Michael Morrison's "Learning XML in 24 hours" is accessible and personable....

Technology in Emergency Management Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)There are other books out there on emergency management. They cannot possibly all be as poorly written as this one.

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)...and only the owner of a company like AdGooRoo could write this, explaining why and how.

That's what Richard has done with this book.As...

Securing the Borderless Network: Security for the Web 2.0 World Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I am giving this four stars because in June 2010, this really helps me see the big picture from a seasoned tech executive, Harvard MBA's point of view. Through no fault of his own, the manuscript will age fast and be less valuable fast. For instance, chapter 6 doesn't have the iPad however, it does have...
