Aikido Weapons Techniques
Aikido Weapons Techniques
by Phong Thong Dang
Edition: Paperback
Price: CDN$ 16.26
19 used & new from CDN$ 6.36

4.0 out of 5 stars Details on some rare techniques., Mar 10 2013
It's hard to find a book that would dedicate itself to the weapons aspect of Aikido, and even on the ones that do the details are sometimes forgotten. This book, on the other hand, seem to encompass everything that one would expect from a masterpiece. Great read!

Oracle Database 11g SQL
Oracle Database 11g SQL

Edition: Paperback
Price: CDN$ 33.36
21 used & new from CDN$ 25.52

4.0 out of 5 stars Great reference for a great RDBMS., Mar 10 2013
Similar to the previous edition (which covers Oracle Database 10g), this is an updated version that covers all changes (plus tips) that 11g has to offer. Although bulky you can be sure that this book will contain anything you need to know. Excellent addition to my bookshelf.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent reference., Sep 29 2008

Without question, this book explains Perl from the inside out, covering all grounds. Programmers can rely on this book for their in-depth knowledge, and have it as a reference.

Hardcore Java
Hardcore Java

Price: CDN$ 36.51

3.0 out of 5 stars Beginners book., Sep 27 2008
This review is from: Hardcore Java (Paperback)
Quite frankly if I knew nothing about Java this book would seem okay at first; badly structured, poor examples and overcomplicated explanations. Consider picking up another book if your intentions are to really learn the language.

3.0 out of 5 stars Yet another quake..., Sep 26 2008
Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Quake 4 (CD-ROM)
Ever since Quake 3 was released there hasn't been much changes in the way characters and the gaming experience is felt by the user. Graphics have gotten better, AI is much better and even the game engine, but bottom line the game is the same.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dependable, Sep 25 2008
O'Reilly's pocket guide are always dependable; this guide should give you a simplistic understanding of how integrate JUnit and Ant, open different perspectives and run/debug your code. Not aimed for beginners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read., Sep 23 2008
Misa has done a fantastic job putting together the history of technology, and it's players, in this book: as the title suggests it starts off in end of the 15th century and it goes to the 21st century, highlighting tendencies for the future.
