Book Reviews

I do a fair amount of reading these days... averaging about one to two books per month ("computer" books). Most of the time, I actually do read them... I don't just skim through. I have gotten through a number of books in the past two years, including but not limited to:

Introducing ASP.NET 2.0
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio .NET
Advanced .NET Remoting
Service-Oriented Architecture in C#
Professional SQL Server Reporting Services
The Rational Guide to SQL Server Reporting Services
UML with Visual Studio .NET
Expert C# Business Objects
Inside C#
Writing Secure Code 2nd Edition
Pragmatic ADO.NET
Design Patterns (GoF)
+ a half dozen MSPRESS books on ASP.NET, Windows Forms, etc while studying for MCSD tests

I also read through about a half dozen "liesure reading" books, mostly science fiction.

So I am going to start blogging a short review of books as I finish them. I will tag all of these entries with the RSS Category of "Book Review" to ease later searching (or ignoring, I suppose).

make sure you send these reviews to the UG leaders so they can be posted on the website. This will let them entice book publishers into giving them free books for giveaways.

Baby steps, baby steps. Let me start writing the reviews first, and then I will begin worrying about the how/who/when of distribution ;-)

If two friends ask you to judge a dispute, don't accept, because you will lose one friend on the other hand, if two strangers come with the same request, accept because you will gain one friend.

people never know how special someone is until they leave, but maybe sometimes its important to leave, so they are given that chance to see how special that someone really is.

We cannot seek or attain health, wealth, learning, justice or kindness in general. Action is always specific, concrete, individualized, unique.

Look to your health; and if you have it, praise God, and value it next to a good conscience; for health is the second blessing that we mortals are capable of; a blessing that money cannot buy.
