I greatly enjoy David Weber's books. I have hard cover copies of most of them. I do not understand why he thinks that we should buy another copy of Ms. Midshipman Harrington. I already have Changer of Worlds and the same story begins both books. Mr. Weber has been very successful and I have been a part of his success. This is very hard to take. Maybe I'll wait to read his next NEW book at the library.

I was very disappointed to start reading and found out the first story by David Weber was taken out of a previous David Weber book of short stories, "Changer of Worlds". I thought I was going to get a new story about Honor Harrington. Eric Flint's story was very entertaining. It was a continuation of the Belsarius alternate history. David Drake's continuing tale of Hammer's Slammers is always graphic, but Mr. Drake has tried to impress upon his readers that war is not neat and clean.

Even though David Weber's contribution is repeated from another anthology, Warmasters is worth buying for military sci-fi fans. The second story, set in the Belisaurius universe, is excellent, both for character development (Calopodius & his wife) and for adding a medical twist to the universe. The third story, about Hammer's Slammers, is also good. I read a library copy, but have purchased a copy for my personal collection.

Although the tape has a few decent suggestions it also has some terrible advice. His suggestions on persistence are down right scary. Save your money. It's not all it's hyped up to be.

Obviously, I agree with one of the reviewers and disagree with the other. Weber's ideas on persistance are just supposed to be taken with a grain of salt; therefore, the listener of this tape must realize 'when to say when.' The content is all culled from Weber's seminars on meeting women and mostly deals with boosting one's self-confidence and becoming more natural, that is, acting naturally, with no stilted feelings and contrived emotions. Definitely made me feel better about myself when I decide to approach a woman, but yes, it is a little pricy.

If you need your confidence built up and need some general understanding of what to do this is a good tape to listen to especially just before you go out. This also gives you some good ideas on handling different situations. It makes me feel less intimidated when dealing with pretty women.

This is just a warning. Before anyone decides to purchase this book, it is geared toward restoring a marriage about to fail. It offers little advice on how to bring back the one you love. I've found that sometimes it's just too late. If however, you are in a relationship, and it is getting rocky this may be of exceptional help. Good luck with whatever you choose. If you're looking for tricks or a magic cure to bring back a lost love, try to remember: It isn't fair to use trickery or deception to steer the heart of another.

This is the worst java book I've ever read. The book is unorganized and the content is not suitable for the beginner at all.

The companion CD-ROM is useless.

If the authors would like to publish the new version for JDK 1.2, there will be a lot of works they need to get accomplished.

Simple words from me.... Don't buy this book.

Covers alot of fancy staff but has a great lack of contents. It seems like the author has rushed through the book just to fill it out with the Java 1.1 features and forgot to describe the import basics behind the language. There's now way you're gonna be a Java guru by reading this book!

It is very thorough. Almost everything important about java is in there including JDBC, JNI, Java Beans, Servlets, security management, even the specification of the virtual machine and most is explained well understandble. It is the best java book I ever saw!
