I'd recommend a freind to buy the book.
The book in addition to the a very concise description of every feature of the camera, it gives many small and helpful tips and ideas.

.JavaScript: The Good Parts
City Travel Guides > Books > Computers and Internet
by: Douglas Crockford

May 15, 2008
I decided to pick up this book because I had been using Javascript for years as a "garnish" on top of my web development, but usually only in the form of a few hacked-together utility functions and edited scripts. In truth, I was afraid of the language - it appeared to be a very inconsistent, buggy system that took arcane knowledge to master across browsers. After starting to work with a number of JS frameworks, I knew I needed to confront the language and learn it properly.

This book is possibly one of the best technical/programming related books I have had the pleasure of reading. It doesn't try to be a massive encyclopedic volume like most of my other technical books, so I didn't have to devote countless hours and days pushing ... Read More:

.jQuery in Action
City Travel Guides > Books > Computers and Internet
by: Bear Bibeault, Yehuda Katz

February 07, 2008
I really have tattered the edges of this book. Normally, I would read a technical book like this, extract all of the information I needed, and then set it back on the book shelf. Not with jQuery in Action! I bring it to work, and then I take it back home in the evening. It is an outstanding book for any programmer who is really serious about keeping all of the user events at the browser level; instead of always going back to the server for something. This book has raised my level of awareness of all of the DOM-level programming available with the use of simple jQuery scripting. Thanks Bear and Yehuda for all of your hard work. Please keep on writing and authoring!!

This book is full of information! I love watching Tory when she is on Good Morning America and couldn't wait for the book to come out. It really helped me think outside the box and get going! It is a must read! I started my own house cleaning business. It fits perfectly in my schedule so I can still homeschool my two teenage sons. I am my own boss and I love it. I would recommend it to everyone.

.Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 How-Tos: 100 Essential Techniques
City Travel Guides > Books > Computers and Internet
by: Chris Orwig

August 21, 2008
I got my copy a couple of weeks ago and have enjoyed working through from cover to cover.
The book is easy to read and has really gotten me up to speed in Lightroom 2 a heck of a lot faster than I expected!
I am familiar with Chris Orwig's Lynda.com video training materials and was curious to see if he could communicate in print with the same passion as he does in video.
Not only is the passion there but it is presented clearly and succinctly.
Totally worth the $$.

.Windows Vista For Dummies
City Travel Guides > Books > Computers and Internet
by: Andy Rathbone

December 13, 2006
Although the friends that I bought this book for are enjoying it, it doesn't give them the minute details that they really need. They have never had a computer before and this book assumes they know more than they do. We forget how overwhelming the computer was for us when we first got started and assume that everyone has a basic understanding of what to do. If this book is truly for dummies, it needs to be really basic for such people.

.Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship (Robert C. Martin Series)
City Travel Guides > Books > Computers and Internet
by: Robert C. Martin

August 11, 2008
Very clear and thoughtful set of practices. My team began implementing the discipline described in this book, and the resulting code is easier to both maintain and transfer to new developers.

My favorite part: The first few chapters give solid, practical reasons for good coding practices -- great ammunition for swaying other developers to follow practices you intuitively know work. :)
