MEDIA REVIEWS
"Much more understandable than most books of this type,even when the author delves deeply into machine code,programming languages,operating systems and the internet. He details 41 hands-on projects,including games,running a web server,and so on. It's just right for the would-be software engineer." -Joy Schwabach,Arkansas Democrat Gazette'sOn Computers
