It is hilarious and telling that this book has been put back into print recently. That indicates how successful HTML Help has been as a standard (it's not cross-browser, not cross-platform, and not good for single-sourcing in a .chm and website, due to unresolved ActiveX objects). This book is the standard on WinHelp, which is officially back from the dead, and it's a fine book, covering principles of hypertext design, authoring tools, and the bells and whistles supported by the WinHelp viewer. The one patch needed for WinHelp, though, is Synchronize Table of Contents (and a persistent navigation window).

I have read to the half of this book. But I plan to read the rest. One day, my cowoker came to me with a book in his hand, "Hey! buddy, you should read this book if you want to work with .HLP." In the afternoon I went to a bookstore and took the book(It's not inexpensive). As a beginner, I have learned a lot of information about .HLP. I'm now looking for the upgrade edition of the book.

Thank you everybody. Be happy all of you.

I knew Java and ASP for several months, and I had to do ASP.NET with C# at work. This is my first and only DOT NET book so far. This slim book got me into working on ASP.NET in few days. This is NOT for the BEGINNING Programmers. If you have experience in OOP like JAVA and Serverside Web scripting like ASP, you would find this book get you to ASP.NET developing fast. It has real world example and explains core essential things. Just what you need to know to get on the job quickly. You don't spend time on what you already know. It doesn't teach you C# but since I knew Java, it was perfectly ok. For more detailed stuff where I needed, I went to MSDN library. To learn more and deep in certain sections, I'll buy some other books. I am giving 5 stars because it's the only book I read and it did good job for my purpose. Thank you very much!

It's concise: it tells just what you need to know to get on the job quickly. You don't spend time on what you already know like basics. No book can be indepth at every area, for more detailed stuff where I needed, I went to MSDN library. To learn more and deep in certain sections, you need buy some other books.

Scott McCullar is perhaps the Gary Larson of library humor. What Larson did to dinosaurs and cows, McCullar has done to the overlooked world of libraries. Funny, inventive cartoons abound in this book. His clear, straightforward art helps showcase his inventive comedy writing. If you've ever worked in, or even checked out a book from, a library, you'll appreciate his demented, wry outlook.

These cartoons are hilarious and no library should be without a copy!

En este Libro podras ver la genialidad y la manera jocosa con la cual Scott Adams, nos brinda muchas de las situaciones que se presentan de manera cotidiana en las diferentes empresas. Cabe mencionar el Sindrome de Cubiculo). Aparte de esto se podra observar la incompetencia de los jefes y la vagancia de los compañeros de trabajo( especialmente Wally)todo esto presentado con una genialidad, sencillez y gran comicidad.
Si leyo El Reducido del Reino de los pinguinos de Barbara Hateley este te va a gustar.

En este libro podra leer de una manera comica muchas de las situaciones vividas de manera cotidiana en su oficina; las cuales van desde la incompetencia de su jefe hasta la vagancia de algunos de sus compañeros( especialmente me refiero a Wally). Este libro deberia ser considerado como tema de discucion en algunas universidades ya que de manera jocosa podremos medir la incompetencia y la discordia en los distintos departamentos que forman a un empresa u organizacion.
Si leyo El Pavo Real en el Reino de los Pinguinos y El Reducido al Reino de los Pinguinos de Barbara Hateley disfrutara mucho las caricaturas de Scott Adams; autor de este libro el cual presenta mucha similitud con el Principio de Peter(Padre).
Lo recomiendo porque se que lo van a disfrutar.

Scott Adams is a unique type of comedian, apparently. I say this because when you hear him on the tapes, you don't think of him as a cartoonist. He tells the whole story of management with the edge of the angry and powerless office worker tempered by a bent toward the philosophical. It seemed as if all the main and current theories of management as hailed by MBA programs were covered in these tapes. Adams' fundamental criticism is aimed at what we might call the human condition: avoiding work and seeking immmediate sexual gratification. Embedded in this set of narratives are lots of little nuggets that you'd probably like to be able to recall for special moments when you can blurt them out for maximum effect.

For those Scott Addams fans out there, I'm sure you've all read Scott Addams' famous humor novels. Like THE DILBERT FUTURE, THE JOY OF WORK, and DOGBERT'S TOP SECRET MANAGMENT HANDBOOK. Even though you've read these, hearing it read by Addams himself is almost completley different from reading his work. You get a sense of emotion and meaning that you can't get with bland text. This collection is an excellent addition to any Dilbert fan's stock.

Ciencin has a way of bringing the reader into the story. A wonderful book. If you liked any of the other Dinotopia books, this would make a great addition to your collection.

This book was agreat addition to my Dinotopia collection. It's added size only made it as the story that was told by Scott Ciencin could not have been made any shorter. If your a fan of Dinotopia you should buy this book.

This is the best book that I have read on how discoveries are really made. Reading the book is an adventure in itself and it touches on every aspect of the scientific process: theoretic, experimental, aesthetic, sociological, political, geographic, &c.

Very inspiring and highly recommended to potential mavericks.

Discovering is a book about how discoveries are made in science. It is one of the most liberating books any scientist in any field can read. It is also highly creative in its format where the story of Discovering unfolds through the work of six characters -- not all of them scientists.

A really good read for all, and a must read for anyone serious about studying science or making discoveries. This includes social scientists as well as physical scientists.

I read this for a book report. It really shows the inhumanity of humaninty!!!!

A brave and gutsy chronicle of an inter-racial family. Minerbrook draws vivid pictures of human beings struggling with cultural differences, gender issues, and parental failings as well as unyielding prejudice by both races. He never condemns, only describes grippingly. He not only survived; he achieved wholeness and stability despite stunning obstacles. I'll never look at a bi-racial person the same way again.

Trevor Scott's international intrigue catalogue continues to expand with his third international espionage thriller, The Dolomite Solution. Mr. Scott is a former weapons expert with the Navy; a former captain in the Air Force; holds a masters degree in creative writing from Northern Michigan University; and now resides in Oregon and Michigan. He continues to travel extensively in Europe.

The Dolomite Solution is set in northern Italy; Innsbruck Austria; and Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island. Two scientists have combined research to find a cure for heart disease. They are set to turn their findings over to an Austrian biotechnology company and are a shoe-in for the Nobel prize when one of them is killed on a mountain road. Jake Adams, former Network agent, has just moved to Innsbruck for a break from his exploits when he receives a strange phone call which propels him into the most convoluted web of murder; betrayal, and industrial espionage he has yet encountered:

"Quinn laughed to himself, gazing through the night vision goggles at the dumpster that Adams had just scurried behind like a frightened rat. His shots had gone way over the man's head, but then Jake had no way of knowing that. It was perfect. When he first heard that the man who had ruined his life would be in the same city as him, he couldn't believe his good fortune. When he had actually seen the man, he knew his luck was changing for the better. He had thought long and hard in prison, projecting a scenario for this very meeting. The city didn't matter. Circumstances like this couldn't be ignored. He had Adams just where he wanted him."

Trevor Scott delivers with The Dolomite Solution. Jake Adams is up against a bitter enemy, and with his usual aplomb Scott ratchets up the action. He is an expert at thoroughly deceiving the reader, drawing us into a seemingly insolvable plot just as he fascinates us with action that is non-stop. Jake is his usual disarming self, understated in a thoroughly fascinating way until his enemies inflate with their own devious cunning. We can't wait for him to succeed, and we can't help but be relieved when he finds his true lady love in the end...a wonderful read.

I saw this book mentioned in Publishers Weekly. They said that former CIA agent Jake Adams was back for more male action-adventure in his third international mystery thriller, THE DOLOMITE SOLUTION by Trevor Scott. "Previous titles have fit the Tom Clancy techno mold, but this topical tale of DNA research and a possible cure for heart disease falls more in the James Bond tradition of fancy cars and fast women."--Publishers Weekly. When I read that, I bought a copy online. They're right. This thriller is one heck of a wild ride. I can't wait to read his first two books. Who would have thought you could make a great thriller from the discovery of a DNA cure for heart disease? Great Scott! He did it.

Stephen King has a new compeditor in scary tales...Scott Bender's first book of twisted tales "Don't Stop The Disco" carries the reader from here to there with fresh new forms of language and a devilish imagination! The first story, "The Beginning" brings vivid pictures to the reader's mind..not nice pictures, however!Bender explores the evil depths of depraved minds to challenge the reader's imagination. This is not a book to read if you live alone...it's late at night..all is silent... unless you prefer sleeping with the lights on!If the "Twilight Zone" was still on the air, Scott Bender would be one of the main writers. Take this book to heart before it rips it out!!!!

A fantastic book of short stories that keep you in suspense until the very end. A thrilling book that excites and scares you at the same time. There are three short stories in this book that combine into one. These stories are not only exciting, but you get caught up in this twisted story. A must read. Highly Recommended
