Ok, I started this new category to keep track of my textbooks. I know that hardly anyone will be interested in these. Lisa has probably already read them, but maybe my geek-tech friends might like to know about them - Billy and Darren? Anyone? So, I gave it 2 stars because I don't have much else with which to compare it. It didn't blow my mind, but it wasn't that bad, either.

Not a beach read. :) Not bad as a textbook, although more and better examples would have been nice, as well as a glossary of acronyms.

This book was easy to read and well-organized. It wasn't my favorite subject, but the reading wasn't painful!
