The iPod Book: Doing Cool Stuff with the iPod and the iTunes Store (5th Edition)

The iPod Book: Doing Cool Stuff with the iPod and the iTunes Store (5th Edition) Review



Are you looking for a book that focuses on just the most important and most useful stuff about your iPod (including the iPod touch, the nano, shuffle, and the iTunes Store)? Well, this is it!

There are basically two kinds of iPod books: (1) The “tell-me-all-about-it” kind, which include in-depth discussions on compression algorithms and tutorials on how to export your playlist in Unicode format. (2) Then there’s this book—a “show-me-how-to-do-it” book. Scott shows you step by step how to do the things people really want to learn about their iPods, and he uses the same casual, conversational style that has made him the world’s #1 best-selling technology author. This book focuses on just the most important, most requested, most useful things so you can start having fun with your iPod today. Right now! Plus, there’s only one topic per page, so if you want to know how to do something, you turn to that page and it shows you how to do just that one thing. It's a simple approach, and people really love learning this way!

As an added bonus, you can check out the best iPod accessories by visiting Terry White's Tech Blog (http://terrywhite.com/techblog).

Pro BizTalk 2006 (Expert's Voice)

Pro BizTalk 2006 (Expert's Voice) Review



BizTalk automates and manages business processes.

Pro BizTalk 2006 is based on feedback from the BizTalk developer community. We asked developers what other books lacked and addressed those topics. For example, why BizTalk works the way it does is not always intuitive and this can cause serious problems when it's implemented in the workplace. The book begins with a detailed explanation of how BizTalk works and why. It also covers performance tuning and includes scripts and code that have been used in real business settings.

Strategery: How George W. Bush Is Defeating Terrorists, Outwitting Democrats, and Confounding the Mainstream Media

Strategery: How George W. Bush Is Defeating Terrorists, Outwitting Democrats, and Confounding the Mainstream Media Review



Strategery: How George W. Bush Is Defeating Terrorists, Outwitting Democrats, and Confounding the Mainstream Media Feature

  • Presidency of George W. Bush, World Leaders
Strategery is a term borrowed from a saturday night live skit and self-deprecatingly adopted by the White House for their meetings. White House Correspondent Bill Sammon is borrowing it yet again in his latest account of this unlikely-yet historic-president. It is written with verve and piercing insight by Sammon, who has been granted unprecedented access to President Bush, Vice President Cheney and their most senior advisers. No other journalist has interviewed the president more times than Sammon.
