Oracle Designer: A Template for Developing An Enterprise Standards Document

4 reviews
Mark A. Kramm, Kent Graziano

Prentice Hall PTR, 1999

The new standard for Designer Standards
I had just finished a short Oracle Designer Naming standards for our Database and Data Architecture group, when I bought this book. It is clear, concise, helpful, and for me, incredibly timely! The Naming standard I created was a pretty bare bones document, created to help our Logical Modelers as well as our DBAs. I incorporated this short Naming standard into the MS Word template (provided ...

Groovy in Action

Manning Publications, 2007

Great Primer (if a bit dated) on a Great Language
While getting a little long in the tooth (GINA was released pre-Groovy 1.0, Groovy is now above 1.5), the material presented in the book is still very relevant and helpful. The biggest issue is that some of the newer (and cooler!) features, such as ExpandoMetaClass, of the language are not covered. That being said, this is still a great introduction to the a language that will likely become an ...

Dorset House, 2008

Another classic from "those Peopleware guys"
The title and cover caught my eye (today!) in the bookstore and after flipping through, I couldn't wait to get home and blow through it. It's clear why this is getting a 5-star average here @ Amazon. Written by the same folks who authored Peopleware (classic skilled-person management book), it contains ~80 patterns of project behaviour alternating between helpful and harmful. Almost ...

Boatbuilding Manual

Robert M. Steward

International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 1993

Comprehensive text on boatbuilding
The Boatbuilding Manual is essentially a text book, in all sense of the word, of boatbuilding. It's a great introduction to boatbuilding for beginners and amateurs. If you're looking for a quick, purely instructional guide to building a seacraft, this might not be your cup of tea. But if you are looking for an in-depth, well-researched and well-presented book building a boat, then you have ...

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2002

You have gotta READ it
The title says it all :) To keep it really short and sweet, learning about C++ templates is really painful till this book came along :) It's my opinion that advanced C++ developers use this book to guide them in understanding and navigating the world of C++ templates. It's simply easy to read and it has amazing clear presentations

Finally making money in the Information Age makes sense.
"Engines of Prosperity" is a startling book. With a few punchy, key themes, it paints a whole new paradigm. Suddenly, making money in the Information Age makes sense. The book gives a new perspective that sees the forest made from the trees. Beginning with the title, it challenges the reader to ponder first the right questions, and then look for his particular answers. The given broad ...

Andrew Troelsen

Wordware Publishing, Inc., 2000

Fantastic book, maybe not for the absolute beginner
My current project at work required me to learn COM. I purchased several books to assist in the learning, and I must say that this book is absolutely indispensible, both as an instructional medium and as a reference. I highly recommend this book to anyone needing to learn about COM. What's inside? It starts with a basic intro to COM, useful (dare I say it) for managers as well as the ...

His mix of clear explanations and helpful hints prove his credentials and expertise with PowerPoint ...

Tom Armstrong, Ron Patton

Wiley Publishing, 2000

First chapter is very promising
I just read the first chapter last night. I found it to be very clear and succinct. In flipping through the rest of the chapters, they appear to be of the same quality. I have some brief C++ experience from several years ago, and more recently some Java. All of my COM experience is with VB. With this background I was able to easily grasp the concepts being explained. My goal is to learn to write ...

The Complete Hurricane & Flood Plan for Business: A Disaster Prevention and Recovery Template on CD-ROM

2 reviews
Douglas M. Henderson

Rothstein Associates Inc., 2006

Excellent Hurricane Template
My experience with hurricane preparation steps is that the actual plan execution never works exactly as expected - there are too many unknowns and variables. Nevertheless, having a detailed `road map' to follow is of great assistance. At under $50, this plan is a real steal.

21 Templates that Run Your World

3 reviews

Positively Success, 2007

Fun, thoughtful, and humorous book
This book gives a fun and easy way to explore some universal truths in personality types, which she calls "templates." I found my template to be amazingly accurate, sometimes uncomfortably so. And the personality description fits me far better than astrological horoscopes ever did.
