Title: This book ended up in my trash can Product review: I really was looking forward to reading this book, however, by page 250 or so, I just wanted it to get to the point so I could put it behind me. The author's style of writing is intricate and delicate, making for long and eloquent sentences that wound their way into to paragraphs full of promise and drama. The disappointment, however, is how the author failed to make any of these paragraphs tie into anything even resembling a plot. What is sold to the reader on the back of the book as a mystery, is in actuality a muddle of characters, plots and subplots that have absolutely nothing to do with one another and failed to fully mature. I wasted so much time on plodding through this morass, that by the time I finally reached the wretched, anti-climatic end, I immediately threw the book away in frustration and disappointment. I didn't even feel it was worth of inclusion into my personal library. What a shame. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?

Title: A Must-Have for the "Know it all" Developer Product review: I found this book extremely refreshing.Firstly, this book gives Microsoft (and other vendors) a well-deserved swift kick for some of the hideous ideas they've implanted into the minds of programmers.Secondly it challenges the way you think about how applications and humans interact, hopefully popping the balloon that has grown in the minds of far too many developers. Cooper begins by ripping your heart out---saying that everything you've believed in is garbage. Then, he shows you new ways to think about designing applications and their interfaces. By the end of the book, you are, hopefully, a more enlightened developer.Judging the tone of some of the other reviewers, I would recommend that the book, "The Psychology of Computer Programming", should also sit next to this one on your shelf.

Title: Disappointed Product review: My one year old LOVES DR. Suess board books and has for the past 6 months. I was excited to find Green Eggs and Ham in a board book, but this one is too wordy, too many flaps and hard to follow for very young children- which is who board books are intended for. We have a collection of others but this one was a bad purchase. I'll wait until he's ready for paper and read the original.
