4.0 out of 5 stars eclectic, 25 Sep 2006
By D. Graham "dave graham" (Wakefield, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is certainly an eclectic mix of a book. Topics from 15 authors covering subjects such as language-oriented programming, through agile methodology and CSS.

Written by leaders in their fields, this book doesn't aim to be definitive, but consists of essays by those people about the stuff which interests them. I didn't follow all of the subjects covered, and I think that you would be hard-pressed to. All were well written and would appeal to followers of that particular facet of information technology.

One particular thing I liked about this was the appendix covering each author's favourite reads and tools, plus a comprehensive bibliography.

I'm sure you'll find, as I did, half a dozen topics of interest, with several others opening up previously unknown fields of study. I'm looking forward to the next edition.
