Title: Oracle PL/SQL 101 Publisher: McGraw-Hill Osborne Media Authors: Christopher Allen Rating: 5/5 This is an excellent investment if you do not know SQL and want to learn PL/SQL. I actually took an instructor led course on this to get me ready for the first Oracle test and found this book to be much better at explaining the concepts then my instructor. Blasted! =-> Highly recommend this book.

Richard Stevens Rating: 1/5 This books contains just about everything you will need to FULLY understand the implentation of tcp/ip on a unix based computer.

Title: The Semantic Web : A Guide to the Future of XML, Web Services, and Knowledge Management Publisher: Wiley Authors: Michael C. Daconta, Leo J. Obrst, Kevin T. Smith Rating: 5/5 This book is an excellent read : strong on substance without getting too complicated. The book does a good job of balancing the vision with the technology that is going on now. While this book does go into details (ontologies, taxonomies, XML technologies, RDF, web services, etc.), it does it in such a way that it is easy to understand. It is good in that there are some chapters that are geared towards businessmen (CTOs), and others geared for the more technical. Don't think that you can read it all in one sitting, though. I just finished it, but I will probably need to re-read some of the chapters (the chapter on ontologies is very good, but is a lot to digest). I enjoyed this book immensely. Other books I have seen on this subject are way too difficult to understand.
