Review title: For Absolute Beginners Only... Product review: Don't be fooled by the catchy title. If you're doing any kind of enterprise level development, this book would certainly be a big waste of time. To be fair with the author, even he admits that you should be looking elsewhere for enterprise level material. This books goes in painful details like explaining what ADO is and how to setup debugging in VB etc. MTS gets one paragraph in the entire book. Session variables abound. IMHO, the Wrox Book, Professional VB6 Web Programming is far far superior. I am getting my money back on this one. Stay away.
Ans: decrease

Product review: This book was suggested by my marriage counselor. It started off a bit confusing and I wasn't really sure what direction it was headed....however, the book has given me a number of great moments of perspective. I like the real world scenarios as I feel I can really relate to the couples in the book and the relationship struggles shared. I would recommend this book to couples or anyone who would like a deeper understanding of building a long lasting and meaningful relationship of any type in their lives.

Review title: Held up at Knifepoint Product review: Nice knives for the most part, however, when you pay for a 7-piece knife set, you expect seven knives as well as the included storage block. You might be surprised and a little upset when you open the package to find out that you only get five knives and a sharpener. Believe it or not, the block is the seventh piece. Talk about misleading advertising. The storage block even has another slot for another knife, but when you read the box contents, there it is. "Seven piece set includes five knives one sharpening tool and storage block". "Sabatier Prosteel 7-Piece High Carbon Stainless Steel Knife Set with Block". "With block" indicates that the block is not one of the seven pieces. Think twice before you buy this one. There's a reason it's so cheap...
