› Find signed collectible books: 'Building a PC for Dummies'
By buying components and assembling them yourself, you can save a little money and gain a lifetime of free technical support. Building a PC for Dummies removes the intimidation factor from building your own Intel-based personal computer, explains what you need, and shows you how to put everything together. It's a fine place to start if you've never assembled your own machine before and want to give the process a try.
Author Mark L. Chambers describes what to look for when shopping for components, but he refrains from recommending any specific models or manufacturers. Building a PC for Dummies would be stronger if he had made such recommendations, the way Tom's Hardware Guide does. Even without a specific shopping list, this book makes it possible for a novice computer builder to make informed decisions about motherboards, processors, storage devices, expansion cards, and input devices.
Chambers presents the assembly process logically, explaining how to install a component or two at a time while performing incremental testing. He includes troubleshooting information in each component's section, but it's odd that he puts his discussion of operating systems in an appendix--most system builders will want to see their creations run as soon as possible. --David Wall
Topics covered: Buying and building a PC; selecting motherboards, processors, storage devices, expansion cards, and input devices. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'C++ for Dummies: Quick Reference'
C++ for Dummies Quick Reference won't impress experienced C++ experts--it contains nothing beyond the basics, and won't help you deal with unusual situations. It will, however, prove valuable to students and to those who frequently switch among programming languages.
What is the syntax for if statements? What are the rules for converting among data types? How do you access the contents of an array? The answers to these questions vary among languages, and if you find yourself needing to write a C++ program immediately after spending months on a Java contract, this book will help you shift gears. Students also will appreciate the clarity of Shammas's examples. Want to know how to read from a command line so you can get on with your assignment? He explains cin and cout clearly, without confusing elaboration.
Covered topics range from declarations of constants and variables to a discussion of object-oriented design principles. The beginning of the book is too basic, and the end too complicated. The real value is in the middle pages, which describe common but forgettable details. Here, you'll find syntax summaries for loops, conditionals, data structures, pointers, and code modules. This is the kind of stuff you need to know for every programming job, and it's good to have it so easily accessible. --David Wall [via]

Berlie Doherty, author of many books for young people, including Carnegie Medal-winner Dear Nobody, says fairy tales "are enchanted dreams. We remember them as if they had been sung to us while we were under the spell of a long deep sleep." And according to acclaimed picture-book illustrator Jane Ray, "fairy tales are the earth beneath our feet, giving us roots and helping us find our place in the world, but they also offer a glimpse of the magical and the enchanted." With two such eloquently mystical creators at the helm, any collection of fairy tales is bound to be magical. Sure enough, this team's magnificent Fairy Tales glimmers and shines, giving new life to traditional favorites such as "Beauty and the Beast," "Cinderella," "Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp," and "Hansel and Gretel." Doherty's retellings are respectful of the originals, while incorporating her own strong, vibrant voice. Ray's watercolor, ink, and collage illustrations, surrounding the gold-framed text, are truly stunning, in exotic colors and exquisite tapestry-style patterns. Characters seem to come from all parts of the world--appropriately enough, since the stories have "echoes in many different cultures." The Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, and Charles Perrault would be proud. (Ages 8 to 12) --Emilie Coulter [via]

The measure of a computer language command reference is its ability to balance depth and breadth with clarity and accessibility. A language reference is no different from a database except for the constraint that a human being will access the database with two hands, furrowed brows, and a sense of urgency.
Patrick Volkerding and Kevin Reichard have struck a workable balance in Linux System Commands, a reference that provides brief descriptions and commonly used command-line options for end users. The entries are not intended to be exhaustive, and more information on any command can be obtained by using the online man pages. The command list is, likewise, limited to commands that end users will need, according to the authors' opinion. System administrators who need rapid access to descriptions of more sophisticated commands, such as routed, will have to seek other references, such as Scott Hawkins's fine Linux Desk Reference.
Part I, which comprises 50 pages, is highlighted by two tables that map common end-user needs onto the appropriate Linux command. The first table correlates a routine task with its Linux command, and the second table correlates MS-DOS commands with their Linux equivalents. The first contains many relatively obscure Linux commands that deserve browsing. For instance, rev reverses character order on each line of a file--an uncommon need, but useful in context.
Part II, the main commands reference, is divided into seven topical areas: general (including X11), file management, text processing, Internet/e-mail, programming, networking, and MS-DOS tools. Each chapter is composed of alphabetized, one-page synopses of the major commands. For brevity, examples of command use are omitted from the synopses.
Part III, which covers Linux shells, is so brief as to be inconsequential.
Commands references are not without their allegiances. Volkerding, who maintains the Slackware distribution of Linux, includes a description of installpkg, the Slackware package installer, but omits rpm, the rival Red Hat package manager, from his list. Betraying sympathies for Macintosh, Volkerding and Reichard emphasize Linux commands that control HFS, the Macintosh file system.
Linux System Commands should be left in a place where you are likely to browse it peacefully on a daily basis, if only for 5 or 10 minutes at a time. It also would do well next to your computer. --Peter Leopold [via]

One issue that dampens enthusiasm for open-source products is a lack of mainstream documentation and tutorials that are written by professionals. PHP 4 Bible takes care of that little detail for PHP, the cross-platform (and free) server-side scripting language for the Web.
PHP 4 Bible is as comprehensive a discussion as you will find about this fascinating language, which can hold its own against commercial competitors like Microsoft Active Server Pages and Allaire ColdFusion. It covers the core elements of the language and its syntax with critical applications of PHP, such as database access and XML integration. The chapters follow a traditional tutorial style, which is helpful to those who are new to PHP.
An introduction to the basic language constructs, control structures, and functions leads off this book in a comfortable way for readers who are versed in other languages, such as Visual Basic. Very practical chapters, such as "Basic PHP Gotchas," help keep students out of trouble as they get their feet wet in PHP. For database access--a critical application of PHP in the real world--the focus is appropriately on MySQL, a simple, cross-platform SQL database.
Plenty of code examples and a companion Web site with downloadable code fill out this tutorial nicely. It is a one-stop way to learn PHP inside and out. --Stephen W. Plain

TCP/IP for Dummies aims to decode the protocols and executables that underlie the Internet and other networks that comply with its data communications standards. By combining how-to information that explains how to configure TCP/IP networking on various Microsoft Windows systems (including Windows 2000) with plenty of academic material on how Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP) work, the authors deliver considerable value to their readers. There ought to be TCP/IP configuration coverage of Linux and Mac OS--TCP/IP is, after all, ideal for heterogeneous networking--but the detailed information about the stack's workings offsets the hands-on shortcomings.
The authors spend a bit too long explaining elementary stuff about the Internet. Still, they unravel Internet phenomena very clearly, explaining for example that FTP is a protocol, a service, and an application in complete TCP/IP suites. Dummies books are big on using analogies to explain technical subjects; this book uses food and a set of dinnerware as an analogy for the TCP/IP software, and sometimes distracts from its educational objective by struggling to make the comparison fit. Regardless, the authors succeed in explaining an important and complex set of internetworking technologies to readers with no prior TCP/IP experience. You'll appreciate the background this book provides if you are planning to configure a small TCP/IP network or work your way toward more elaborate jobs. --David Wall [via]

Simon St. Laurent's foray into XML is best described by an adjective not often used with computer books: charming. From its portable size to its playful code examples, XML: A Primer is an interesting and well-crafted read. Stylistic considerations aside, it is also a useful introduction for anyone who does considerable work in HTML or SGML.
St. Laurent explains the nuanced differences between XML and HTML, stating, "Using XML requires a different focus, demanding that designers examine the way that their documents are built rather than the way they are formatted." He later comments, "XML doesn't go nearly as far as SGML in requiring conformance to standards, but it may still come as a shock to HTML developers. XML standards refer to processors (parsers), not to browsers, because much XML development will be intended for machine-readable data applications rather than graphically exciting web pages."
If you are curious about the hype surrounding XML, ready for an XML book you can read cover to cover, and comfortable with lengthy code examples, XML: A Primer will offer you the knowledge you need to understand this emerging technology. [via]

What is this book about?
XSLT 2.0 Programmer's Reference, 3rd Edition, is the authoritative reference guide to the language. Without using the formal and inaccessible language of the W3C specifications, it tells you exactly what every construct in the language does, and how it is intended to be used. This book is a reference rather than a tutorial; it is designed for the professional programmer who is using the language every day. It is the book that people quote when they claim that a particular product is giving the wrong answer, and the book that implementers of the language turn to when they want clarification of the specifications.
At the same time, the book is readable. Reviews of the previous editions of the XSLT Programmers Reference, which this book grew from, show that readers appreciate the background material on the design thinking behind the language, the essay on functional programming, the occasional dry wit, the gentle criticism of the language specification when appropriate, and the fact that the examples stray into a diverse range of interesting application areas.
