Title: JavaScript: The Definitive Guide Publisher: O'Reilly Authors: David Flanagan Rating: 3/5 The cover is great. Nothing like a Javanese Rhino to make me whip a book off the shelf. I do not think this is a good beginner's book, though, but once you know what you're doing, it's the thing to sink your braincells into. Absolute beginners should check out something like Javascript Goodies by Joe Burns or an online tutorial.

Title: The C++ Programming Language (Special 3rd Edition) Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Authors: Bjarne Stroustrup Rating: 5/5 Need basic C++ knowledge to read, but give you the meaning of what is OOP. Will not waste your money.

Title: Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability Publisher: New Riders Press Authors: Steve Krug Rating: 5/5 I read this in a few hours. It was time and money well spent. As a copywriter, I do a lot of writing for the web. I'm not a designer, although I do design my own site and from time to time help clients with theirs. So my interest was perhaps from a different need than some other readers. But I found a good deal of valuable information that I can instantly apply to my daily work, including my copywriting. Copywriters and designers almost always disagree which is more important, words or graphics. Of course, I vote the former and most if not all designers vote the latter. But this book took no sides. It is something that both the graphics folks and we in marketing can adapt to our daily efforts to make the web useful. After all, we all want that. So there's no disagreement there. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has anything at all to do with a Web site. No matter if it's a one-person show or a corporate site, this book will be of value to you. It's extremely well written. It's lively and entertaining and just full of information that you can immediately put to use. Susanna K. HutchesonCreative Director and OwnerPowerwriting.com LLC
