Independent Feature Film Production: A Complete Guide from Concept Through Distribution

16 reviews
Gregory Goodell

St. Martin's Griffin, 2003

Complete and then some
This book goes into fairly extensive detail on almost all aspects of film production. Production is a grey area to most and this book illuminates it quite well. It is a bit dry and long winded but is more than made up for by its excellent index and organization. It doesn't have to be a page turner if you can find the page you need. Buy it and use it as you need it (and you will need it)

Oracle Database 11g New Features (Osborne Oracle Press)

5 reviews
Robert G. Freeman

McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2007

Everything you need to know about 11g
This is a must have for anyone interested in upgrading an Oracle database to 11g. The author clearly explains new concepts in this release. What separates this book from others is the real life examples used to illustrate the value of the new features, not simply a definition of the syntax. I was especially interested in the Data Warehouse section. Highly reccommended!

Plume, 1988

Excellent book for journalists
This book shows the nuts and bolts about good journalism: writing and interviewing techniques, how to get good story ideas, etc. It has a great deal of examples too. Every journalist should read it at least once. The best thing would be to revisit it every two or three years.

Pulitzer Prize Feature Stories: America's Best Writing, 1979 - 2003

Feature Writing for Newspapers and Magazines: The Pursuit of Excellence (6th Edition)

1 review
Edward Jay Friedlander, John Lee

Allyn & Bacon, 2007

Good information, but same as previous editions
This books offers a good overview of feature writing for both magazines and newspapers. However, when I compared the first edition of this text (1988) with the current 4th edition, I noticed very little difference, other than a huge price increase. Some of the book has been updated, but the sections that are aren't too relevant or useful. Thus, if you have the original edition of this ...

Wiley And Grampa Are A Hoot!
I discovered this series through my 9-year-old. I pick up books for him to look at, ones that I hope will catch his eye. While we were stranding in the waiting room at the doctor's office awaiting results of my wife's x-rays, he read the book to me. I read my book and he read his. Until he started laughing outloud and insisted on reading the book to me. As it turns out, Wiley has to travel ...
