One of the best "how to" Client-Server testing books ever...
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Hardcover
I have been doing SQA and related engineering for almost twenty years and have not seen many books that actually get into the "nuts and bolts" of software testing as well as this one does. Mosley takes great pains to insure that whether you are a newcomer to SQA or a seasoned pro, something is here for you. I recently moved from a strictly software testing environment to a Client-Server environment and used this book extensively to "get up to speed" with the new internet testing concepts presented in this publication. Very practical examples, clear explanations and a thorough knowledge of the topic. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is new to the field and any one needs ideas on how to put a test environment together that really produces immediate results. I have worked on many software engineering projects over the past twenty years and wished many times for a book like this, now its here.

Great Book - DON'T READ ANY MORE REVIEWS FURTHER ON!
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Paperback
Great book - genuine masterpiece of SF and horror. However, don't read any more reviews as half of the reviewers seem to think that a review consists on revealing all of the plot (including twists) and will definitely spoil your enjoyment of this book.The only plot a person can reveal without spoiling it is the stuff that's in the blurb (the bit on the back cover). If you want to know what the book is about then go read it! The only people who won't like it are the people who think that Freddy Kreuger is the pinnacle of intellectual horror.

It's About the evolution of a Human Being not a Monster
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Mass Market Paperback
The importance of this book lies in that it shows how people can evolve regardless of there environment. And also how one can turn adversity (going to jail), into growth and awareness. Unfortunate as it is to say, he didn't get a chance to finish his evolution because of the limited frustated people around him. When you read the book you will understand why. Read this book and then finish up with the book, "The Final Speeches". Had Malcom X lived, he would have become one of the great humanitarians of the 20th century. This seems odd because of the way he was turned into a villian by the press. One things for sure; We should all try to internalize his penetrating need for truth.

The best adventure book!
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Paperback
This was a great book and had lots of adventure in it. My favorite part was when Claudie and Jamie were in the museum and hiding from the guards because it was very funny when they hid in the toilets. Another good part was at Mrs. Frankweiler's house when they found the statues' papers a minute before their time was up. I think that anyone who likes fun and adventure would really like this book.

How to unravel it all
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Paperback
If for every mood, there is a book (I'm not saying there is, but just suppose), then this is an ideal book for people who are deeply conscious of their shortcomings by nature of being human. This book is a beauty on so many levels.The details that most enchanted enchanted me about this book was time (there is so much of it, dragging on and on, each moment an opportunity for perfection failed at by the three well-intentioned women) and perfection (each woman believes deep down she is a failure, fights her inner conscious to be content with what she has, talks herself continually off from the precipisce of realizing how inadequate she is, as if it were ever possible to be adequate...). Overall a lovely book I deeply identified with though I can't say I'm either shocked or deserving of that affiliation. If you're in for a philosophic, emotional expose, you will likely fall into the infinitely nesting emotions mastered in this book and come through it amazed as well.

More of the best
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Hardcover
So frequently, sequels and series never match up to the joycreated in the original. How lucky for us readers that in this casethe expected doesn't occur, and book three is as wonderful as book one. All the tensions and plot twists due to mistaken assumptions are here again in full force, and done very well. If Harry and his friends were always right, they wouldn't be nearly so endearing. Seeing them come to terms with situations they thought would be different is always entertaining. The introduction of new magic gadgets and personages also serves to keep the story fresh. And Snape is as irritatingly nasty as ever.

A race to save the the fragile future of Wall St investors.
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Mass Market Paperback
Rhodes does the impossible. He helps us to understand the complexities of Wall Street's most sophisticated trading instruments, and then he actually makes us care about it!
The book is a great race between the elder backroom savvy dealmakers of Wall Street, and the morals of those too new to the game to have become jaded.
The book is alot of fun, and Rhodes shows us that the financial markets can a wilder roller coaster than any of us ever imagined.

Crazy for this book
Rating: 5/5
Binding: Hardcover
'Crazy for You' was the first Jennifer Crusie novel I've picked up. It won't be the last. I had a blast reading it from cover to cover, laughing out loud more than a couple of times because of the author's great insights into her characters.Quinn, a school teacher, has a very normal lifestyle, and that's what she hates about it, it's too normal. Life with her boyfriend Bill is going down the tube, especially when he refuses to let Quinn keep Katie, a mongrel that one of her students found. Quinn moves out with the help of her old friend Nick Ziegler, and that's when the sparks start to fly!A well rounded book with great supporting characters that add real texture to this remarkable book.
