Now a few years old, but still a useful introduction for anyone who wants to get a better sense of Internet technologies and the programming process. My copy has been making the rounds among various e-commerce clients, content creators, and publishers.

I am not a programmer, but I wanted to understand Java. The authors started with the fundamentals of the history of programming to provide the reader some background, before jumping to Java. I found the book very imformative about the many terms of the internet: Applet, HTML, Platform etc. The authors developed an easy to understand evolution of program languages from monolith to Java--quite a spand, but successfully convey to the reader. I would highly recommand this book for anyone using the internet, and wants to understand the fundamentals.

The title says it all! Making "sense" of JAVA. What is it, and how can knowing this help you and your company? Perhaps you are not a Manager, but just a curious web surfer who's wondering what all the hubbub is about. This book is for anyone who asks the question, "what is JAVA". As an added bonus, the book describes thoroughly the inner workings of a company's computer setups, LAN, WAN, dumb terminals, it's all here, explained in easy-to-understand language. The book fills a real need for a down-to-earth information source, without all the "how-to's" of other JAVA books

This text is an excellent resource for practicing educators and professors of education. It gives a brief and concise review of major events in the development of the U.S. educational system. I strongly recommend it!
