One of the things that's important to get right for these books is the order of operations. I felt like this book was counter-intuitive in the way it was organized, where it should've gone from the simplest concepts to the most advanced. That was not the case. I haven't really used this book as a reference either in later use, as the O'Reilly books have been superior on both counts when it comes to learning technologies.
ok, I admit that I have not read this cover to cover. I had bought this as a reference for looking up the stuff that i don't use often enough to retain the information in the hard drive that i laughingly call a brain. This book is very informative, and like most Dummies books, very easy to understand. Not much of a plot but still a great book!
Another great book in the "For Dummies" line.
