Negative Positive
Title: Offers nothing more than included documentation
Review: At US$40.00, a near-useless book. Perfunctory introductions to InterDev, without enough detail in any examples to really get you going. Many screenshots don't match up to the descriptions (obvious proofing errors abound). And gratuitous use of the sort of "let's just name the interface elements" approach to instruction books. (Example: definition of "Parameters Tab": "On the Parameters tab, you can set the parameters to be passed to the database object."). People use InterDev to develop database-oriented sites. As another reviewer wrote, there is no more than 15% of the book devoted this. And stay away from the awful chapters on CSS, HTML, and Web design.
