I love this book. It's fun and inspirational to anyone who enjoys pottery. I'm happy to have this in my library of pottery books.

This book will provide the necessary information to get started in beading. It has a wealth of information on the equipment and materials required. The book was published a couple of years ago so some of the projects look quite a bit dated, but the information provided on the basics of beading and wire jewelry is enough to get the creative juices flowing. I recommend this book as it is clearly written, organized and well thought out.

This book is beautifully designed, however, it is not for the beginner. The book does give good instructions; the gallery features some beautiful work but without instructions on producing those pieces. It is a good buy and I would recommend it for inspiration. The projects in this book requires that you work with metal clay and a kiln, which may be too expensive for a beginner to invest in such equipment, but it does provide you with information should your budget allow.

JQuery Novice to Ninja is probably one of the best written and designed books out there for novice jQuery users. I had purchased other software and programming books and quickly became confused and frustrated. However, this book is well worth the money; it covers enough information for anyone wanting to use jQuery in their websites; the resources as well as the examples used are up-to-date which is often not the case with other programming/software books. I purchased this book after reading the reviews from others who had purchased it from the amazon.com site; they were right. Anyone who would like to use jQuery in their websites should have this book on their bookshelf.
